Impressive Camera
This camera (with a flash) is impressive in quality and size! It measures about 4 inches across and 2.5 inches high. Megapixels are 20.0. Optical zoom is 42x, has a lens cover, and captures great photos and videos. Transferring them to another device using wi-fi is a snap. Comes with a battery pack and charger. Does allow for an SD card although not included. Screen size measures 2(w) x 2.5(L). A tripod can be used although not included. Absolutely would recommend!

Nothing Special
This camera is just okay. I was expecting better quality photos, at least comparable to my cellphone. I haven't had a point and shoot for 10 years and this is much better than back then, but I expected better. It's light but definitely not pocket size. I think the camera should be ready to use right out of the box. Can't take any photos without a memory card, so had to get one of those. Then, I couldn't get it to connect to my laptop by wifi or to my phone by wifi or NFC, so had to purchase a cable to connect to my computer (the cable needed is not a usual one so none of my other camera and phone cables worked with it). I think it should come with a connecting cable and have some internal memory to at least take a few photos before having to purchase a memory card. See my photos. The raccoon out on my porch I took with the zoom. Was hard to get the focus on the animal (focus ended up towards the bottom of the photo, not on the animal). The other raccoon photo was blurry, meaning the camera didn't stabilize the image. The other is my cat indoors with the flash, I cropped this one and quality was pretty good. I can only upload 2 photos, so can't show the forest shots that are dull and disappointing. Overall, colors are true but not very bright. My cellphone does better.

    You can never go wrong with a canon product
    This camera is state of the ar.t The resolution gives a real qualuty photo! There was no cord included but I just used a spare to hook up to my computer. This camera is rather advanced and I reviewed a you tube video to familurize myself with the proper way to use it. I am very pleased wirh the canon SX 420 and highlt recommend ir to everyone.

    Excellent Picture Quality - easy to upload photos
    This is a nice little camera that takes excellent photos. I didn't feel like the icons on the camera were that self explanatory, so you definitely need to use the product manual to learn how to take pictures. It has a 40X zoon lens which is great for taking enlarged pictures. The camera does not come with a memory disk so I had to purchase that separately. One of my favorite features is that you can send pictures to your computer, upload to the Internet (by creating a Canon account), or by sending it to your phone, so you can easily create backups of your favorite pictures. I think this camera is a good value for the price.

    Portable and powerful
    I have been trying to get into photography more seriously but just did not feel satisfied with the quality of my phone camera. The PowerShot SX420 was the perfect fit for me. The price point is great for someone looking to invest into a nice Canon camera, but not so expensive that it'll scare you off. The thing that surprised me most was how small and portable it is. Other cameras can be a pain because they're heavy or clunky. This camera was a great size for me to bring along wherever. I have been taking pictures outside, pictures of food, and of my family. I love the quality! Big recommend from me

    Great camera for all ages, beginners, and pros
    This is a great little camera. It's easy to use, lightweight, and has nice features. Out of the box I did charge the battery so I could begin use. The battery and charger are included. Unfortunately it does not include an SD card. I had to go out and buy one before I could use my camera. Once I got an SD card I was set. I took it on a trip to visit my grandchildren. I took pictures inside and outside. If lighting was too low indoors the camera let me know to pop up the flash. I even let two of my grandchildren use it a little bit and it was great. It was easy enough for them to not only take pictures but to take videos too. They are ages 8 and 6. They were able to figure out how to operate the zoom feature right away after brief instruction from me. This camera has great zoom capabilities. I used it to get close up pictures of deer that I would not have been able to take otherwise. One of the coolest features of this camera is that it has wifi capabilities built in. You can share pictures to your cell phone, tablet, desktop, or laptop as long as they have wifi capabilities also. I am one of the least technology savvy people around and I found it super easy to follow the camera guide book and set up the ability to share my photos between devices. I definitely would recommend this camera. Whether you are six or sixty (or older) it's a great little camera.

    A Shutterbug's Dream Come True!
    I have been a photography enthusiast for as long as I can remember...a shutterbug if you will. Apart from professional, I have probably owned every type of camera made since 1962 (my birth year) and back then it was not easy getting the "perfect" picture. Before digital cameras, point and shoot, cell phones, photo editing, wifi, etc., taking a halfway decent picture was a hit or miss process. (The struggle was real.) The zoom lens is perfect for taking great pics and video at my grandson's basketball games. With Wi-Fi and NFC connectivity, I can share the memories almost instantly with family and friends. The stabilizer feature is a godsend. I have Essential Tremor and it is extremely difficult to keep my hands from shaking while taking pictures. The features of this camera are incredible!

    Great camera for a beginner
    At first I was worry about he camera not working is very lightweight, but I was wrong it take good photo. I can't wait to take this camera when I travel or go camping. The lens extend a lot, the photos are good quality. It is very easy to connected to a phone computer to export your photo and post on social media. You just need to download the app canon camera connect, the what I really like was that the wifi from the camera was password protected, I have a very expensive camera and it doesn't have this.

    Cannon power shot SX420
    Nice light weight Camera. Easy to learn controls and the zoom is unbelievably fast. It came with lenses cover W/strap to attach to camera and a wrist strap. A battery pack and charger. There is no internal storage so you have to purchase a memory card. It recorded movies and has WiFi set up for your printer, iPhone, iPad, web services And more. The viewing screen is larger than most and I would purchase a camera case And screen protector just to be safe.

    Perfect camera!
    I first want to start off by saying how much I love this camera! It's small and easy to carry around. Small but powerful! I really liked how in live mode you can fully customize camera settings. The zoom on this camera is excellent. This was my first camera with built in wifi for easy transfer of photos. I had that set up in less than 2 min! I loved how you can take photos from the app. Great feature! The video quality is excellent. This little camera is just packed with so much power! The only thing I didnt like was not having an eye piece to look through for photos. It's a hard habit to break. Other than that this camera has everything I need to family snap shots, nature, or anything else you can think of. Great camera for beginners!
