The good: Excellent photo quality, features for its class; semimanual, manual shooting modes; uses AA-size batteries.
The bad: Slow shooting performance; bulky, heavy body.
The bottom line: The budget-friendly Canon PowerShot SX130 IS is a solid, compact megazoom for those who prize creative control and photo quality more than fast shooting performance or a small, lightweight design.
The PowerShot SX130 IS is one of Canon's three compact megazooms for 2010. It shares some of the same features as its linemate, the SX210 IS, mainly semimanual and manual shooting modes and 720p HD movie capture. However, that model has a longer, 14x zoom lens and a 14-megapixel CCD sensor to the SX130's 12x zoom and 12-megapixel CCD sensor. Then there's the PowerShot SD4500 IS, which is part of Canon's Digital Elph line and features a 10x zoom and a 10-megapixel CMOS sensor. Despite having the midrange specs of the three, the SX130 IS is the most basic and lowest priced. It's also a very good camera for those wanting more creative control than just about any competing model will give you and excellent photo quality for its class. Its shooting performance is the only thing that's lackluster here, but it's still on par with similarly priced models.

The SX130's design is basically unchanged from its predecessor, the SX120 IS. There are a couple styling changes, including a better front grip, and it now has stereo mics in front above the longer, wider lens, but it's still bulky and heavy, especially in comparison with competing compact megazooms. Part of the reason for its heft and dimensions is that it uses two AA-size batteries for power while other manufacturers have moved to rechargeable packs. Battery life is relatively short if you use alkaline batteries, though. You'll want to pick up some rechargeable NiMH batteries, which will triple the shot count from alkaline.
The controls on the back are pretty much the same as those on the SX120 IS, though the Playback button is now to the right of the thumbrest instead of the left. Face detection, display, menu, and exposure compensation buttons are above and below the navigational scroll wheel to the right of the 3-inch LCD. The screen gets adequately bright, though some may still find it difficult to see in direct sunlight. The navigational wheel surrounds a Func./Set button and has top, bottom, left, and right pressure points for ISO sensitivity, focus (manual, normal, and macro), flash, and timer. The wheel is responsive with tactile stops to it, so you will not easily overshoot what you're trying to select. Operation is overall easy to pick up, but even seasoned Canon users will want to examine the full manual included on the software disc bundled with the camera.
The batteries and memory card slot are in a compartment accessed through the bottom of the camera, secured by a locking door. That's good considering there's nothing holding the batteries in place. On the right side of the body under a small door is a USB/AV port for connecting to a computer or external display and a DC input if you want to power the camera with an optional adapter.

If you're looking for a wide variety of shooting options, the SX130 IS will likely have plenty for you to experiment with. Among the many modes are shutter-priority, aperture-priority, and manual options. Available apertures include: f3.4, f4.0, f4.5, f5.0, f5.6, f6.3, f7.1, and f8.0. Availability is dependent on zoom position, though you do get the full range at the wide end. Shutter speeds go from 15 seconds down to 1/2,500 second, which is a better range than most cameras in this class offer.
For the SX130, Canon throws three of the more common scene-shooting modes (Portrait, Landscape, and Kids & Pets) on the actual Mode dial and keeps more specialized scene types (Low Light, Snow, Fireworks, Foliage, and Beach) under an SCN spot on the dial. Under SCN, too, are Canon's creative shooting modes like Color Swap, Color Accent, Miniature Effect, Fisheye Effect, and Super Vivid as well as its Smart Shutter option, which features a smile-activated shutter release in addition to Wink and Face Detection self-timers. Wink allows you to set off the shutter simply by winking at the camera and the Face Detection option will wait till the camera detects a new face in front of the camera before it fires off a shot. Both work well.
On the dial you'll also find Canon's reliable Smart Auto, which analyzes your subject and automatically selects an appropriate scene setting from 28 specially defined settings; an Easy mode for fully automatic shooting with no access to menus whatsoever; and a Movie mode for capturing clips at resolutions up to 720p HD and offering the ability to shoot using Color Swap, Color Accent, and Miniature Effect modes.
Shooting performance is fairly slow, which sadly is average for its class. From off to first shot takes about 2 seconds. The shot-to-shot times averaged 3 seconds without the flash while using the flash doubles that wait time. Shutter lag--the time from when the shutter release is pressed to when the image is captured--is a minimum of 0.6 second in bright lighting. Thankfully, it only jumps to 0.8 second in low light, but occasionally it felt longer. There are two main continuous shooting options: one with autofocus on every shot and one that sets focus and exposure with the first shot. The latter is faster, capturing at about 1 frame per second. The continuous option with AF slows down to about 0.6fps. Add in the shutter lag for the first shot and you'll have to be pretty good at anticipating action to get the shot you want.
The SX130 takes excellent photos for its class, though like most compact cameras, it's at its best below ISO 200. At ISO 400 there's a noticeable increase in noise and softness from noise reduction. Fine details can still be seen at full size right up to ISO 1,600, making photos usable at smaller sizes. The increased noise at ISO 1,600 does, however, cause some faint yellow blotching.
Colors produced by the SX130 are generally excellent--bright, vivid, and fairly accurate in our lab tests. They lose some saturation at ISO 800 and above, but not nearly as much as I've seen on competing cameras. Exposure and white balance are very good.
Canon keeps the barrel distortion in check with this wide-angle lens; there is some, but it's a livable amount. When fully extended, the lens exhibits nearly undetectable pincushioning, but not enough to be concerned with. Center sharpness is very good, and the lens stays consistent out to the sides and corners. It doesn't appear that Canon does much to help remove or reduce fringing in high-contrast areas of photos. Most megazoom cameras produce a lot of fringing, so it's not a surprise to see it from the SX130. You'll see it in larger prints or if you crop heavily. If you're able to look past it, generally don't view your photos at full size, or don't mind removing it with photo-editing software, then it's a nonissue.
Video quality is on par with an HD pocket video camera. It's not stellar and won't replace a full-size camcorder, but is certainly good enough for Web use or casual viewing on an HDTV. You do get use of the optical zoom while recording and the lens movement is very quiet so it doesn't get picked up by the stereo mic.
Last year's SX120 IS was a decent compact megazoom, but it had fewer features, slower performance, and a bulkier design than competing models. The Canon PowerShot SX130 IS catches up to the pack in features and is one, if not the only, readily available compact megazoom that takes AA-size batteries and has semimanual and manual shooting modes. Combined with a good price and excellent photo quality, it's definitely a front-runner in its class. The slow performance is the only significant thing that tarnishes the package.

Amazing camera if you use the NiMH batteries.
by Snomotion1 on October 30, 2010
Pros: Great features, excellent quality photos. The 720p HD video is very clear. The ability to zoom from a wide angle 28mm to 12X or 336 mm while filming is a great feature. The camera is easy to hold and all controls are very easy to operate.
Cons: The low battery indicator starts flashing when the batteries have reached ~45% capacity. A firmware upgrade might fix this.
Don't use alkaline batteries with this camera: ~23 minutes of 720p HD video with alkalines verses 70 minutes with NiMH.Summary: Great features, excellent quality photos. The 720p HD video is very clear. The ability to zoom from a wide angle 28mm to 12X or 336 mm while filming is a ...
Summary: Great features, excellent quality photos. The 720p HD video is very clear. The ability to zoom from a wide angle 28mm to 12X or 336 mm while filming is a great feature. Great for group shots and closeups. For me it replaces my bulky digital SLR and Sony Camcorder that I had to lug around to events. I love this camera.
The only negatives I have are the battery performance with alkaline batteries and the battery life indicator. I found that brand new Duracell or Energizer alkaline batteries only last for an average of 23 minutes of HD 720p video. This is not acceptable. I would highly recommend buying a 4 pack of NiMH AA batteries (they retail for about $16 and often come with a charger). NiMH rechargeables such as Sanyo Eneloops lasted for a very respectable 70 minutes of 720p video - about 3x as long as the alkalines. I used the zoom a lot during the video test too. Lastly, Canon must fix their low battery indicator since it is very premature: the low battery indicator started flashing after only 13 minutes of video with alkalines and 40 minutes with NiMH. I kept shooting until the camera actually died and came to realize that in both cases there was still about 40% capacity left in the batteries. Hopefully Canon will issue a firmware upgrade to fix this.
Points of interest:
- 10 minutes of 720p HD video takes about 1.75GB on your card so an 8GB card will give you maybe 45 or 50 minutes of video at the maximum resolution. I would recommend 8GB and up SDHC cards.
- I should also point out that the camera has an auto shut-off for the video after 10 minutes of continuous shooting. This limits the clip size to 10 minutes max. I actually think this is a good feature since it stops you from accidentally forgetting the video on and either filling up your memory card or running down your battery.
All in all I think this is a terrific camera if you use the NiMH batteries.18 out of 24 users found this user opinion helpful.

Fantastic Camera - must use NiMH Recharbable Batteries
by btn1100 on November 6, 2010
Pros: Excellent Options. Produces nice sharp images with excellent color and will work for a novice(Many "Automatic" options) as well as more experienced photographers looking for a bit more creative control. Shutter lag performance is excellent.
Cons: Slow recharge time when using flash and shot to shot wait times are below average. Hard on alkaline batteries but you can get about 350 shots with NiMH rechargables.
Summary: Excellent value for the money. Produces some excellent images, especially in good light. Low light performance is very good for it's class, though it won't make you forget ...

Summary: I got this a few weeks ago and so far so good. The body is solid and it has Canon's excellent user interface which is a pleasure to use. This 12.1 megapixel megazoom offers an awesome value as the pictures it produces are on par with some cheap DSLRs. The zoom is not so fast but when shooting video it is plain slow, which by the way has an awesome quality for so little money even when it doesn't go up to 1080p.
It eats up alkalines in record time, but with NiMH is can last at least twice as with alkalines. I usually carry two pairs of rechargable NiMHs just in case; a con and a pro at the same time. The image effects are nice and some can even be used while recording HD video. It can recognize faces and includes an smile-shutter mode.
If you can live with the bulk but care more about photo quality than about style and size, then this is a must buy. At that price it is a steal.3 out of 3 users found this user opinion helpful.

Pocket camera recommended for Pro Photographers
by photometry on December 18, 2010
Pros: Full Manual Settings with Flash intensity Control. Big 12x optical zoom ratio, High Resolution 12MP, 720P HD movie, and great overall picture quality.
Cons: Low Battery life and slower recycle time with Alkaline Batteries (Recommend rechargeable AA Nicads or AA Lithium Batt). 28mm Wide is OK but it would nice at 18-21mm.

Summary: Even though these following features are a big bonus I did not really get this camera for the big 12x optical zoom, or the HD movie mode, or for the 12MP chip. But the main reason was for it's full manual controls with shutter, aperture, focus and flash intensity settings. This is the only pocket camera with these full manual features. I have been waiting 10 years for a pocket that I can control and I highly recommend it to Pros. I am generally a Nikon man for SLRs, DSLRs, and point-&-shoot cameras, but I have to give Canon two thumbs up for the SX 130 IS.
In addition, this camera is the bang for your buck under $200 without a doubt.
Updated on Dec 18, 2010
Updated on Jan 1, 2011FINAL CONCLUSION: Now that I have used the SX 130 camera in different shooting situations (low light scenes, daylight landscape, candids, & product shots) I came to the conclusion of returning it. The camera controls worked fine and it's well built but very disappointed in the overall picture performance quality. In addition, if you are someone like me that is constantly changing control settings and frequently using the menu options then you will be lucky to get about 30 shots out of a set of batteries. I just stepped up to the Canon SX 210 and it's a huge difference, it's worth every penny. The refined features of the SX 210 and flexibility of independent custom controls settings in TV, AV, M, P, and MOV is much better than the SX 130. The picture quality is superior, it's more compact, and it's capability of panoramic stitching is impressive. In final, just the lithium ion battery and charger which comes with the SX 210 was worth the extra money.2 out of 2 users found this user opinion helpful.

- Pictures are very clear and vivid
- Flash works very well
- Auto mode takes great pictures, Manual and semi-manual modes take great picsCons: - Shot-to-shot time is disappointing
- Battery performance with standard Alkaline is around 130 shots optimum.

Summary: This camera replaces my 6yo Kodak Dx7630. I selected this camera based on its big lens compared to its peers. Camera was on sale at the time and I was sold. Long Shot-to-shot time (up to 6 seconds with flash on) isn't noticeable normally, unless you're trying to take quick pictures, then it's a BIG deal. I have an old 2gb sd card, which might be slowing performance a little. I'll update if I notice a difference.
The on-the-fly color swap is slick, though I haven't figured out an actual use for it :-)
I've had the camera over a month and I'm still figuring out all the features. Tons of flash settings, multiple light sensors and red-eye reducers help create natural-looking photos with the flash on.
Budget for some rechargeable batteries (new NiMH batteries that don't discharge over time seem to be the cheapest/best performing option, often called "pre-charged NiMH". Canon recommends their own brand of rechargeables, though).
Taking photos in poorly-lit field houses for my sister's basketball games lets this camera shine. I can get this camera to produce a passable photo at 1/100 shutter at 400ISO (some distortion, but still overall crisp) at 5-8x zoom.
I'm very happy with the camera and will update as I use it more.1 out of 1 users found this user opinion helpful.

Don't expect a DSLR
by marsrover001 on March 23, 2012
Pros: great low light shooting (with long exposures)
Hackable (CHDK)
it's a bridge camera (not quite a P&S but not a DSLR either, closer to the point and shoot range though)Cons: Slow to turn on, likes to munch on batteries
NO PANORAMIC MODE (this made me a bit mad)
Video mode restricted to 10 minutesSummary: Pictures are average, they are a few notches below a full dslr but for most stuff it can do it, you might need to make alot of manual adjustments to ...
Summary: Pictures are average, they are a few notches below a full dslr but for most stuff it can do it, you might need to make alot of manual adjustments to get the photo you want. Over exposes in lower lit scenes (such as under a tree) making the patches of sun brighter than they should be. Just use the EV to turn it down.
fisheye mode sucks, the end, just not a true fisheye effect.
video auto-focus is horible in low light, even in normal light it's way too slow. Set your focus to infinate and then start shooting, try not to get too close. When you move from a dark scene to a bright one, it takes a moment for the video to adjust it's self. As long as I'm on video (can you tell I like using the video mode alot) use the vivid setting if you want the colors to look right. And another stupid part of video is the review option, when you turn off all the camera sounds, there is no video sound. You can turn off the startup vol, selftimer, shutter, but operation vol contains button presses and video sound so you have to have both or neither (a clear design oversight)
For those of you that can't figure out how to fast foward and rewind, hold down next or previous frame to do that. It's linear stepup so watch the speed.
Anyway, we own 2 of these, liked the first one enough to get a second. I recomend the largest memory card you can buy because video eats space like there's no tomorow. I have a 2gb, 8gb, and 16gb and I cary around a extra set of rechargables too.
Ok got all the negative stuff. Good, anything I didn't mention was ok. The CHDK adds alot of great functions, and that's the main reason I bought this camera, it was the best camera that CHDK supports.
For the record, I got mine on sale for $115 and my sister got hers for $100 -
In a word this camera is very good one in this range.

4. Good photo quality with image stabilizer facility.
5. 720p HD video recording.Cons: 1. It takes a lot time while zooming. This is the main problem for me.
2. night photographs are not too good whitout flash as expected by me but good if u use flash.Summary: I have forgotten to metion that macro works beautifully.
