Needs better detailed instructions for all of the functions. When learning new functions for the first time, the instructions need to havee more pictures in the booklet to explain the function better.We are in Vermont where it has been raining constantly. I am concerned how tight the camera may be sealed to avoid getting camera ruined. If I put the camera in a plastic bag , will it cause humidity and damage the camera? It is however very nice to use regular "AAA" batteries rather than special batteries costing more money. Overall I think the camera is great.

Canon was always my top choice for cameras, but
lately they have dropped significantly on quality, although, I do
like their printers alot. Their cameras, on the other hand, leave
much to be desired. Better choices in this price range (i.e. Sony,
Samsung) Hope they get their act together. I gave this one to my
12 y/o, who enjoys it very much, so not a total waste :)

    Past owner of a Canon camera. This was an upgrade. Good overall camera for the money. I hope this will be as good as my first Canon camera 8 years ago.

    Comments about Canon Powershot SX160 IS Digital Camera, Black:

    Love Canon camera's and they seem to be getting better and better all the time. Quiet, the new Powershots work wonderfully inside in low light situations where other more expensive won't provide a great image. Auto focus is fast and its a wonderful improvement not to have a delay in the shutter.
