High End Point And Shoot Digital Camera

[Carabiner] I've used analog SLRs for years and transitioned to digital point and shoot cameras about 8 years ago. I've steadily upgraded and finally after much research settled on what I now consider to be the best technology short of a digital SLR. I will use this for not only family pictures, but also on the cruises that my wife and I take periodically. In particular I'm looking forward to pictures from our upcoming Alaska inland passage cruise in early September. The 20X zoom with an effecitve 28 to 560 mm range is fantastic and at long focal lengths the image stabilization does a great job. I like the fact that you can record HD movies, but wish the HD cable was standard rather than what appears to be proprietary. Otherwise, I am thoroughly pleased with this camera. While it has high tech features that will take me months to master, the ease of taking pictures right out of the box and the quality of the results with virtually no learning curve is a real plus. Would definitely recommend this camera to anyone looking for a longer zoom point and shoot that will provide consistenly high quality pictures.

[Empty] Bought this to carry a small point and shoot digital camera on a backpack chest strap while hiking. Very satisfied with the flap covered padded camera compartment, and zippered section for extra batteries and SD cards. Much better design than the Lowepro case it replaced. Just what I needed.

[Black] Compact, fits in my pocket. Incredibly high image quality. I don't know why all the negative reviews for video? If I wanted a video camera I would have purchased a video camera, and not a point and shoot that also does video. The videos I've taken have come out nicely, but I wouldn't buy a point and shoot for blogging... get a video camera. With a 20 megapixel 3/4 in sensor I've been able to take photos of the northern lights, solar eclipses and more. Often at almost the same quality as a full size SLR, but night and day better than my iPhone. The controls are clunkier since it's all menu based, but as the saying goes... the best camera is the one you have with you and the compact nature means I can actually keep this camera in my pocket. This is amazing for any type of outdoor activity where a full size SLR is cumbersome. If you're looking for a high end point and shoot that will fit in your pocket, then this is an amazing camera. If you're looking for an SLR or a video camera I can't help you as that's a different product. The key is to know what you're looking for.

[Proprietary] Has many uses for my cell phone, point and shoot camera etc

[0.4 lb (0.2 kg)] Perfect for a small point-and-shoot camera.

[0.79 lb] I have been taking digital photos with point & shoot cameras for years, but finally decided on this DSLR. Small, light, and amazing! Very pleased with the quality of the photos just using the P(rogram) setting, but it can do so much more. The 2 lenses in the bundle compliment each other perfectly. There is so much here that a dedicated book is a must; I downloaded the ebook version of David Busch's Canon EOS Rebel SL2/200D Guide to Digital SLR Photography, which will go a long way towards helping figure things out. The LED screen is amazing, and the articulation makes it 10x more useful. Pros may have nits to pick with this 'entry-level' camera, but regular folks looking for a first DSLR won't go wrong with the SL2.

[Black] We are using these cases to house our fleets of digital point and shoots which we use in our high school classes. They are easy to keep organized and labeled, light and comfortable to tote, and seem solid, durable, and like a worthwhile investment.

[2.74 lb] Easy to learn and fun point and shoot/vlog camera!

[Aluminum] Used for putting camcorder filters on a point and shoot camera.
