SLEEK AND SLIM WITH A POWERFUL ZOOM.
Along with its impressively slim profile and stylish new design, the PowerShot SX610 HS camera boasts a powerful array of advanced capabilities. The 18x Optical Zoom gives you excellent versatility, while Intelligent IS helps ensure virtually shake-free images at any zoom length, and Auto Zoom helps you frame your subject and keep it in focus. Built-in Wi-Fi® and NFC make this a great camera to have with you all day long: send images and video to compatible mobile devices and your computer, share directly with select social networking sites, shoot remotely with your smartphone or tablet and more. Image quality is beautifully sharp and resonant, even when you're shooting in low light, thanks to the 20.2 Megapixel* High-Sensitivity CMOS sensor and DIGIC 4+ Image Processor, which together create the Canon HS SYSTEM. And just press the dedicated movie button to capture vividly lifelike 1080p Full HD video. For documenting and sharing your life, the PowerShot SX610 HS camera is the perfect partner.

* Image processing may cause a decrease in the number of pixels.

SUPERB ZOOM FOR SPECTACULAR RANGE
18X OPTICAL ZOOM
The powerful 18x Optical Zoom range (35mm equivalent: 25–450mm) on the PowerShot SX610 HS camera is ideal for capturing memories of kids' achievements on the sporting field, recitals, plays and concerts – all those times when your access to the action is limited. From landscapes and wildlife to city scenes and more, this camera has you covered – all while fitting in your pocket. Zooming action is quick and precise, and genuine Canon optics help ensure brilliant clarity. Chromatic aberration is compensated across the entire range, and the lens's high optical resolving power works with the camera's high-resolution sensor and advanced image stabilization systems to produce clear, sharp, beautifully detailed images at any zoom length.

INTELLIGENT IS
It's easy to capture clear, steady images, even in low light without using a tripod. That's because the camera is equipped with Canon's innovative Intelligent IS. The system automatically analyzes camera movement and applies the best shake correction method for the shooting situation – allowing you to focus on framing and capturing your shot. For stills, the system selects from Normal IS, Panning IS, Macro (Hybrid) IS and Tripod modes. When shooting video, the system selects from Dynamic IS, Powered IS, Macro (Hybrid) IS and active Tripod IS modes. Icons clearly mark the image stabilization mode, whether you're shooting still images or video.

Still Image Shooting Normal IS Corrects for a wide range of camera movement when shooting stills. Panning IS Panning motion is detected so that IS does not interfere with desired camera movement. Macro (Hybrid) IS Corrects for shift-type camera shake, which typically occurs in macro (close-up) shooting. Tripod When tripod use is detected, the Image Stabilizer is stopped because it is not needed. Video Recording Dynamic Effective for video shooting at wide-angle focal lengths, eliminating the unwanted shaking that typically occurs while walking. Powered Compensates for hand movement when shooting video at the telephoto end of the zoom range, where camera shake is magnified. Macro (Hybrid) IS Corrects for motion blur that is likely to occur when shooting video while walking. Also compensates for the shift-type camera shake common in macro shooting. Active Tripod IS When shooting video while using a tripod, the image stabilization is active to compensate for slight camera shake. CONNECT AND SHARE WITH A TOUCH
BUILTÂ€IN NFC (NEAR FIELD COMMUNICATION)
PowerShot digital cameras with built-in NFC (Near Field Communication) technology eliminates the need to manually find and open the new Canon Camera Connect app* on your mobile device. Simply touch the NFC icon on your camera to your compatible Android™ device**, and the Camera Connect app will launch automatically for quick, easy sharing of your images. Builtâ€in NFC technology also makes it simpler to install the app. If the app hasn't been installed yet, once you touch the devices together for the first time, the download screen will display automatically. Now, NFC helps ensure making a connection to a compatible Android™ device* truly seamless. Simply touch the camera against an NFC-equipped device with the Canon Camera Connect app installed, and the Wi-Fi® connection is established no camera operations required. Even if your camera is off, NFC turns the camera on and establishes the connection (confirming the cameraâ€™s nickname and privacy settings before the first connection is required).

BUILT-IN WI-FI® MAKES SHARING QUICK AND EASY
Built-in Wi-Fi® technology for on-the-go convenience when you want to share your photos and videos with friends, family and the whole world.

In addition, the new Camera Connect app is now universal to PowerShot and Canon EOS cameras with built-in Wi-Fi®, so if you switch between cameras, operation is easy and familiar.

From there, images and videos can be viewed in Full HD on an HDTV (via an HDMI cable), sent to compatible wireless printers, viewed/uploaded/downloaded smartphones and tablets or PCs, and shared with other Connect Stations.

* Calculated with approx. 6.6MB for each photo and with average 32Mbps Full HD video.

BEAUTIFUL IMAGES AND INCREDIBLE PERFORMANCE START HERE
20.2 MEGAPIXEL* HIGH-SENSITIVITY CMOS SENSOR
The PowerShot SX610 HS camera employs a 20.2 Megapixel* High-Sensitivity CMOS sensor, which delivers state-of-the-art imaging performance and is optimized for use in compact cameras. Utilizing a sophisticated light-capturing design, it provides high sensitivity for improved high ISO capture with reduced noise. It is also a high-speed design, capable of rapidly capturing and moving image data to the processor, enabling faster continuous shooting and faster autofocus.

* Image processing may cause a decrease in the number of pixels

DIGIC 4+ IMAGE PROCESSOR
The Canon DIGIC 4+ Image Processor powers the PowerShot SX610 HS camera's advanced functions and capabilities, including Hybrid Auto, Creative Shot, and Full HD video shooting at 30p in the easy-to-share MP4 format. Its accelerated processing speed creates fast, responsive performance, for a shooting experience that's easy and natural. The DIGIC 4+ Image Processor also enhances image quality in several ways. Processing of high ISO shots has been shortened by 60% compared to the DIGIC 4 Image Processor. This significantly reduces noise for brilliant color, smooth gradations, and beautiful detail even in low light. The processor also allows for the integration of electronic Dynamic IS. This advanced system compensates for multiple motion types, effectively preventing angular blur, shift blur, and blur caused by parallel movement and tilt shift. The result is images that are reliably sharp and clear at all lengths of the camera's powerful zoom. The processor's highly efficient design also extends battery life.

CANON HS SYSTEM HELPS PROVIDE EXCELLENT LOW-LIGHT PERFORMANCE
The slim, compact PowerShot SX610 HS camera gives you the power to capture beautifully detailed, naturally lit images even in low light – reducing the need for flash and the occasionally unwelcome effects it produces. That's because the camera's 20.2 Megapixel* High-Sensitivity CMOS sensor works with the DIGIC 4+ Image Processor to create the Canon HS SYSTEM, specifically engineered for spectacular low-light performance. With the Canon HS SYSTEM, you'll experience excellent tracking performance even in low light, and achieve gorgeous still image quality at ISO speeds up to ISO 3200; beautiful low-light shots are possible with minimal noise and maximum detail in highlight and shadow areas.

* Image processing may cause a decrease in the number of pixels.

CAPTURE YOUR ADVENTURES IN STUNNING FULL HD
FULL HD VIDEO
Gorgeous high definition video is yours throughout the camera's impressive zoom range, and starts immediately with a touch of the dedicated movie button. The PowerShot SX610 HS camera captures Full HD video at 30p (selectable for resolution), for notably smooth, lifelike quality that is truly at home even on a large screen HDTV. And now you can record in convenient MP4 format for the easiest online sharing.

CLEAR VIEWING, EASY SHOOTING
3.0-INCH HIGH RESOLUTION (922,000 DOTS) LCD
The large, 3.0-inch high-resolution LCD screen makes it easy to both frame and review your shots. A resolution of 922,000 dots makes even the smallest details clear, and images are viewable even from a wide angle, so showing others what you've captured is easy, too.

RETHINK PHOTOGRAPHY WITH CREATIVE SHOT
CREATIVE SHOT MODE
In addition to the versatile power of its amazing 18x Optical Zoom, the PowerShot SX610 HS camera also turns out impressive artistic photos with Creative Shot mode. Rather than randomly applying filters, Creative Shot mode takes advantage of advanced Canon technologies to analyze the individual scene, subject and exposure to apply any of 46 filter options. In addition to the original shot, the camera automatically produces and saves five additional variations of the composition. Filter choices are grouped into Retro, Monochrome, Special and Natural categories to make exploring the world of artistic photography fun and easy, or simply select Auto to access the full range of effects. With Creative Shot mode, the result is stunning artistic photos that are perfect for sharing.

SHOOT CAREFREE WITH ADVANCED POWERSHOT TECHNOLOGIES
HYBRID AUTO
The PowerShot SX610 HS camera features Hybrid Auto, which records up to four seconds of video every time you shoot a still image, then automatically joins the clips and pictures* into a video that captures the essence of special days: vacations, important occasions, or any time you're shooting many shots in a day. With Hybrid Auto, this "highlight reel" is stunningly beautiful. Hybrid Auto automatically recognizes the scene and optimizes camera settings to capture the highest possible image quality. The resulting 720p HD video is properly exposed, crisp and steady.

* Pictures can be withheld from the resulting video via menu settings.

SMART AUTO
Sophisticated Canon technology that makes getting that great shot as simple as pressing the shutter button, Smart AUTO automatically detects scenes by assessing various factors in both the background and the subject. On the PowerShot SX610 HS camera, detected scenes are analyzed using 32 predefined shooting situations. The camera then makes optimal settings to help ensure the best possible image capture, whether you're shooting stills or video. Smart AUTO also includes Advanced Subject Detection, which allows the camera to detect and track non-human moving subjects like animals and vehicles. With Smart AUTO, all you have to do is frame your shot and capture away.

SHOOTING MODES/SPECIAL SCENE MODES
Smart AUTO The camera automatically selects the best shooting settings for optimal quality based on subjects and environmental factors to provide point-and-shoot simplicity. Movie Digest & Hybrid Auto Automatically selects shooting settings for optimal quality and records a video clip every time you capture a still image. One day's worth of clips are then combined into a single video. Program The camera automatically and intelligently selects the aperture/shutter speed combination based on the shooting conditions. Creative Shot Analyzes the scene and applies a number of creative filters to automatically create five variations in addition to the original image. Portrait Brings the subject into focus while beautifully blurring the background. Smart Shutter The camera automatically takes the photo when people smile, wink, or get into frame. High-Speed Burst Captures rapid action frame by frame, by shooting continuously at a high speed while the shutter button is held down. Handheld Night Scene Take clear and steady pictures at night without the use of a tripod. Low Light For high quality image capture in an amazing range of dimly lit situations. Fisheye Effect Now you can get the fisheye effect – a classic photographic distortion – without a fisheye lens. Miniature Effect Give images a miniature look with an effect that emphasizes perspective by blurring the top and bottom of the image. Toy Camera Effect Simulates photos taken with "toy" or pinhole cameras, darkening the image at the edges to create a vignette effect. Monochrome Choose from three single-tone effects: Black-and-White, Sepia, or Blue. Super Vivid Super Vivid intensifies existing hues, saturating the scene with bright colors. Poster Effect Poster Effect combines several similar shades into one color, turning subtle gradations into eye-catching, scene-popping contrasts. Snow Shoot clear snow scenes without darkened subjects or an unnatural bluish tint. Fireworks Create brilliant images of skyrocketing fireworks. Long Shutter Use to blur moving subjects for artistic effect, ideal for urban night photography. Movie Record video; unwanted scenes can be deleted in playback mode. Actual results may vary from examples shown above.
Final image may vary depending on picture composition.

PERFECT ZOOM SHOTS MADE EASY
AUTO ZOOM
Now, beautifully framed shots using the powerful 18x Optical Zoom are as easy as pressing the Auto Zoom button. With Auto Zoom, the camera automatically determines the correct size and framing by detecting the number of subjects. The system also detects faces that are too small, then zooms in to the proper length. Auto Zoom is a great feature for spontaneous everyday shooting, and especially useful for times when someone else (even a child) is using your camera, for instance at a tourist spot.

Consumer Reports

This $215 point-and-shoot has an 18x optical zoom and comes WiFi-enabled, making image offloading easy. Its wide-angle lens excels at snapping the big stuff, from mountains to monuments. Also a nice bonus: It's very quick to start up, meaning you won't miss a shot while waiting for the camera turn on.

At ISO 1600 the fine lines in our test scene run together into an almost total blur. Of current models, the Panasonic ZS50 is the best pocket superzoom we've tested in terms of high ISO image quality; its images show quite a bit of detail and just 1.7 percent noise at ISO 1600

Canon PowerShot SX610 HS Review

 And you don't want to be whipping out your fancy Iphone 6s when you're traveling abroad, anyway... Using a P&S reduces the risk of losing or breaking your phone, or having to show off your SLR kit in sketchy places

5" cell phone (pictured with a 5" 2013 LG Nexus 5) but much heavier. Grippy spots on front and back show it's meant to work one-handed, but I found that I couldn't hold it one-handed and STEADY when pressing the shutter (I have average sized male hands and good grip strength). Combined with using the controls, this is definitely a 2-handed camera, but uncomfortably so, especially if you're trying to not cover the flash or push on the lens housing. If you don't need it to fit in a pocket, the SX400 series is easier to hold and has larger zoom ranges

 But they're actually terrible quality unless fully lit (but they do come out). In long-exposure mode, the camera should be on a tripod or other solid surface. In a third low-light mode (the one I liked best), results are somewhere in the middle. But in all cases, very noisy, dark images that blur on even minor motion

A solid little camera looking for a niche

 In modest light, shooting inside castles/museums/cathedrals, the image was too grainy. Images with flash lacked sophistication; the flash would blow out the subject, grain would still exist. I ended up experimenting with my cell phone (Galaxy S8+). Without fail, the phone took better pictures in challenging situations

  All around, the images were not as crisp as I had hoped. The real disappointment was interior shots. In modest light, shooting inside castles/museums/cathedrals, the image was too grainy. Images with flash lacked sophistication; the flash would blow out the subject, grain would still exist

Mixed Experience / Poor Low-Light

 This may improve as I fully learn to operate the camera. Thus far I have found the zoom to operate well but difficult to "fine tune" the desired shot. Image quality with the zoom fully extended is very good, but framing the shot is comparable to viewing through a telescope vs binoculars; a tripod or other stability device is mandatory. The most glaring short coming of the camera is the absence of a panorama mode

 It is hard to believe this feature is not available on a camera with so many features! Overall, this appears to be a good camera that feels solidly built and takes great pictures. I feel confident I will appreciate even more in the future.

SX610 appears to be a keeper

On first blush, not as nice as the old SX260HS it replaces

I MADE A POOR DECISION WITH THIS CANON

however picture quality up close and at a distance leave something to be desired. Shot response time is slow and often results in a blurry picture.

No Manual Setting

I bought this about a month ago. Still learning about it. lots of features, some i am  using already. Have not uploaded as i haven't learned yet
