Very Good Point and Shoot Camera
I am a wildlife/nature photographer. I got this for my wife to teach her basic photographic skills on. The SX260 HS has good resolution, excellent sharpness, and enough manual control to make it useful for those slightly beyond the beginner stage in photography.
Pros:
- Easy To Use
- Good Image Quality
- Small / Compact
Cons:
- Lag / Shutter Delay
- No Viewfinder
- Short Battery Life

I bought this camera specifically because I wanted a camera with higher zoom. At the same time, I didn't want one of those bulky DSLR cameras. I've been watching for sales on this camera for a long time. I've seen it regularly priced for $300 which is a bit more than I wanted to spend.

Canon PowerShot SX260 HS Digital Camera
This is one of the best options available in the field of digital cameras and that also in the best market price. Go for it. This is the digital camera with all features in affordable price. It has smart look, high mega pixels and good picture quality.

All Digital cameras have tradeoffs.
I'm very happy with my XS 260, but that doesn't mean it couldn't be better. PROS: 1.
Pros:
- PROS: 20x optical zoom
- Turns on quickly
- One-botton video recording LOTs of manual modes
Cons:
- Pop-up under finger
- GPS tracking limited and drains battery.

Canon PowerShot SX260 HS Review
My Canon PowerShot SX260 HS review showcases a camera that has some very nice features, but its price point may be a bit high for some beginning photographers.

Sadly Disappointed
Despite the glowing reviews by camera websites and users, I was sadly disappointed by the very soft pictures; my 5 yr old Panasonic was much sharper. Fortunately I was able to exchange it at BB.

I bought this after my hs320 died so it was quite a jump for me, mostly because we strayed from the super slim body to reap some of the rewards of a larger lens and sensor. I hate comparing the two at all because they are in completely different spectrums within the point-n-shoot class.

Super camera.
Super camera. Used 230sx 2 years, now bought a 260, even ecstatic. Simplicity and functionality. I'm not a pro, all that is necessary for normal pictures on vacation, I have with this camera.

- Easy To Use

- Good Image Stabilization
- Great Zoom
- Large Clear LCD
- Nice Body Color

- Short Battery Life

PowerShot SX260HS Fails
I bought my SX260HS camera on January 11, 2013 looking forward to taking many pics of my grandkids in an upcoming visit. I practiced with movies, snapshots, etc until I felt comfortable. Then, just 7 days later, on Jan 18, I opened the camera to take some more practice pics.
Pros:
- easy to use
Cons:
- Flimsy Construction
- failure of warranty responsibility
