The Canon PowerShot SX160 IS review for Real Estate

 A quick review of the Canon SX160IS PowerShot camera.    
 One the most versatile cameras for Real Estate photography, it has all the needed options. Easy to handle, easy to store and meets the requirements of getting all of the shots. Simple to use and not also the power to be a great standard in your gear bag.

      Let's discuss power of the the two AA batteries that make for convenience anywhere your at. I use six AA rechargeable batteries , always two of those batteries in the car charger. Depending on the brand and the age of the batteries, the camera with flash on can be drained quickly. When the flash is not in use the the batteries can last quite some time,
      The options of 640 x 480 is a must when shooting real estate foreclosures. The photo quality is better than expected at that size. Zooming in it gets pixel but that's a good thing, most other cameras try a corrections at that size and detail is lost. Why the size, storage is the biggest issue. If you can imagine that close to hundred thousand photos a week uploaded to an Asset Management company.

       You can look at Canon's website for greater detail but this is the camera that comes complete out the box ready to work. Real estate foreclosures, huds, reo, fannie and freddie properties all standards in common. The camera is AA power, can do 640 x 480, SDcard and date stamp,  and most other cameras are dropping the AA and using there own battery style. Losing the 640 x 480 and or the quality is so bad you can't see anything, the SD card pretty common and the date stamp is not an option on a lot of them.
The only thing it needs is the ability to shoot RAW but the Macro is great and the Auto option is a plus. In low light like any camera has difficult time focusing.

   Wrap this up, I took a pass on Nikon L26 because the very poor quality at 640x 480. The Canon SX160IS is a very useable camera and work horse for getting those real estate foreclosures photos. Don't take my word for it but I do like this camera.
All of the photos are straight from camera and as you can see it performs very well. Thanks for reading this quick review on the Canon SX160IS.
