Canon PowerShot SX430 IS

Advantages: 1. Value for money. 2. Mobility. The small size allows you to wear it constantly and not to experience discomfort. 3. Powerful 45x zoom. Allows you to see fine details at great distances. When shooting the moon, craters are visible, like a telescope. 4. Large range of settings. You can customize everything for yourself, as you like. 5. LIVE mode allows you to adjust the brightness, saturation and temperature of the frame right in the camera. 6. Good build. I once bumped against the asphalt, ONLY COVERED WITH DUST and the screen was slightly scratched. Another time, I wiped my houses on the floor, no damage. 7. Connection to a PC is possible both via USB and via a memory card, to whom it is convenient. 8. The battery charges quickly. You can go home or into a coffee-box with sockets and while you are having lunch, the battery will have time to charge in 2 hours. And you can go on to shoot.

Disadvantages: 1. Poor video recording quality. I didn't buy for these purposes, so I don't care. 2. The display itself on the camera is of the same quality as on a "soap dish". 3. Despite the 20MP photos, when viewed on a full hd screen, there is noise. Of course, for that kind of money, this is a completely inconceivable drawback. 4. No USB included, need to buy separately.(I was lucky, I also had Canon from the old soap dish)

Comment: Price-quality ratio. The most common soap dish, only with mega-zoom. Did someone really want to get an analogue of a DSLR for this money? This camera doesn’t just have that kind of zoom for price tagging, it must be used as intended. When you get close to an object, the angle becomes different, as compared to how you saw it from afar. Those who say that it is impossible to shoot portraits, most likely do not know how to focus correctly, or they got married. I highly recommend this camera to those who need to take pictures with a huge zoom (but only for themselves) and still need to shrink within a budget. I post examples of photos without a flower.

Advantages: In the photographs, the fotik seems huge, but in reality it is not at all like that))) How did I like this model? 1. Compactness. Fits in a small purse. 2. Just awesome zoom. The zoom does not degrade the quality of the photos. 3. The quality of the photos. In my opinion, this "soap box" is not inferior to some SLR cameras. Photos are bright and clear. 4. Simple setup. The camera has many modes (AUTO, Portrait, Low Light, Monochrome, Fisheye Effect, Toy Camera Effect, Miniature Effect, Super Vivid, Poster Effect, Fireworks, Long Exposure). You can also customize everything for yourself (Scene brightness, image color, white balance, ISO, self-timer, photo format (16: 9 3: 2 4: 3 1: 1), resolution, photo and video quality. 5. Build quality.

Disadvantages: Low quality video (albeit 720p). Camera noise is heard on the video This Canon is more suitable for photography.

Comment: I chose between this model and the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-H300. They practically do not differ in photo quality. Sony is much larger in size, and it looks more modern (Well, it costs a little more than Canon)

Advantages: Use for just under a week. For a ~ 95% consumer, in this case, the following is important: weight, size, ease of use, specific features, in particular ultrazoom (1080 mm relative to 35 mm film) and use via WiFi and NFC. The rest will be at the level of analogs one way or another. I stopped at this camera like everyone else for that very reason. Separately, I will note the positive features: - It fits comfortably in the hand / hands. - Ultrazum for 12 tr. 1080 mm (35 film), decent digital zoom 2x at 45x, which corresponds to 90x and 2160 mm magnification (35 film). It's not just cool, it's very cool. Yes, the quality suffers at the same time, but everyone understands this anyway, and here it is not that you can see something, but the photos are normal (for the consumer). - I was pleased with the camera position sensor that when the camera is rotated 90 degrees, the camera turns it over when viewing the image (to view vertical shots across the entire screen area). - It is important, as already indicated, that the lens cap is attached to the lens itself - this is not to damage it when the lens cap is not accidentally removed. - Assembled perfectly, does not play. Separately, I also want to dwell on its main feature - 1080 mm ultrazoom. It would seem that you can expect that everything will turn and turn and nothing can be removed from your hands, but! He shoots distant objects from his hands perfectly, not blurry. Of course, this is if the hands do not walk. Therefore, he fulfills his distinctive feature.

Disadvantages: Please note that the disadvantages of the camera can only be when compared with competitors - price / quality. In this case, the absence of a data cable for the PC is not. Likewise, there is no decent noise with a large zoom, some modes, etc. It's just hard to want anything with a sensor area of ​​1 / 2.3 "and 20MPixels; it is clear that the amount of light will be small compared to DSLRs, etc. But what the camera has in my opinion is enough for the consumer ...In a few days, I did not take as many photos as I wanted, I tested everything at high zoom values ​​(35-45x optical zoom and 90x with 2x digital zoom) and the camera does not always focus both with and without hands. It turned out that only in ~ 60% of cases focusing occurred, in other cases it was not possible to achieve this at all by pressing the shutter button halfway (then the camera focuses) - I repeat, it did not work at all, although I always tried to do it 3-7 times. After that, I had to "drive off" the zoom by half and again aim and focus again. Perhaps this is a feature of this camera, perhaps a marriage, but such was the case. This, together with the resulting picture, does not allow to put more than 4 stars.

Comment: In terms of price / quality ratio, this is a good camera, with an excellent zoom and many excellent features, which cannot be listed in the review. Perfect for amateurs and beginners. And for 12 tr. it is unlikely to be better to choose. Regarding ultrasound / photo: in the photo without zoom, the landscape and with a zoom of 45x cones, as well as a cat with a zoom of 45x from 2.5 meters.

Advantages: Reliability, macro photography, fast stabilization, compactness and lightness, battery

Disadvantages: Low color saturation, low contrast

Comment:

Advantages: light, good zoom, there is a 3X2 format, good auto mode, a number of useful functions in manual mode, simple control, good video, good red-eye protection.

Disadvantages: Weak battery, I had to buy a spare

Comment: I am an amateur photographer with over 60 years of experience. I started shooting for another disc, I will not list all the cameras that have been in my hands. The assessment of the apparatus depends on the tasks that you set yourself. If you take 10x15 pictures for a family album and home video, then this is a very good camera. For these purposes, and bought. If you set yourself highly artistic tasks, then you need to choose something more advanced, and therefore more expensive.
