Ever went on a safari or to national parks like Bharatpur..... whereyou would want to shoot the wildlife from far away but could never everget a perfect picture of the animal or bird? This is where thiscamera's massive 12x zoom come handy. Shooting birds and leopards froma distance is a wonderful experience with this camera.
Its got a 6MegaPixel lens and the picture quality is crystal clear especially whenyou are shooting outdoors. All world details are picked up perfectly.Zooming into the picture you can see every detail clearly.
Howeverthe camera somewhat dissapoints in indoor shooting. In low light it isnot able to give that clear a picture as it gives when you are shootingoutdoors.
The macro shooting is also wonderful and you can get extremely close to objects.
Itsgot a number of shooting modes including where you can choose to setthe shutter speed or the aperture. It also features a full automaticmode as well as other shooting modes like night, fireworks, snow etc.
Thebattery is also good. It uses four alkaline batteries (the normalpencil cells) which last for more than a day of continous shooting. Youcan also use recahrgeable batteries also.
Its a Canon.....what more can I say? They make one of the world's best camera's and this is no doubt one of them.
Thiscamera is aimed at those people who want to make a transition from anormal trigger-happy camera to a more SLR type, which is not a full SLRbut provides some levels of experimentation.
Also for those who love the outdoors.
I bought it for around Rs23000 in Singapore which I consider is a fare price.
So go ahead and buy it without any hiccups!!
