Checkout the Canon PowerShot SX160 IS
It s a nice little camera - not too small and not to big. It uses 2-AA batteries which is why I bought the camera. Nothing like being out walking a trail and have the battery go dead in you point and shoot. You just can't plug it into a tree and charge it, but with a AA battery camera you just change the batteries and keep shooting. Best features about the camera: 16.o Mp, it has a control dial (m, av, tv, p) which allows you an infinite amount of control over your picture taking. You have direct control over shutter speed, or aperture setting, or you can use the program mode, It allows you to use manual exposure settings as well. It takes really nice pictures especially in daylight. It allows for manual focus (mf) which can come in handy when trying to take pictures of fast moving objects - race cars, planes, etc. MF will not refocus should someone step in your sight plain. Drawbacks include only having a 16x lens, and it uses a CCD sensor which limits video capture to HD (720p). Overall I like the camera. It does what I want it to do. Canon discontinued manufacturing the camera several year ago, but if you find a used one in good condition at a reasonable price -- check it out.Read full review

Trial & Error
The image was noticeably worse than the camera it was replacing. It took a very long time before you could take the next photo. It needed a separate battery to retain the date and time which was dead on delivery. It's only advantage that I could see was that it took easily obtainable 2 AA battery's. Would not recommend this camera.Read full review

Canon SX160 IS Camera
I forgot and left my identical camera on an Alaska flight, so jumped at the chance to purchase this camera with carrying case. I gave it 4 stars as my old camera and this one doesn't see to keep the time/date stamp. This could be caused by a small, round battery no longer carrying a charge. Camera takes very nice pictures and uses inexpensive AA batteries that last a very loong time. If you see a similar camera - buy it. You won't be disapointed.Read full review

Replaced the same model
I like this camera for its small size and good image quality. I carry it when my SLR is too big to pack or too big to carry on a day trip. It fits in my pants pocket.
My first SX160 IS would not longer remember the date when turned off, even after I replaces the battery.
I decided to buy a used SX160 because I could not find a new camera of comparable quality that would run on AA batteries. We use rechargeable AAs for everything possible.Read full review

Great Camera, Great Price!
I wanted a quality brand camera with decent megapixels that didn't put a large dent on my wallet. This camera fits that bill perfectly. Wish it had a view finder (I'm a little old school like that), but that wasn't a deal breaker for me. This camera turned out to be much better than I expected.Read full review

Good camera body, a few nits.
The camera takes good pictures (lens is ok). The zoom works well. The screen on the back is satisfactory.
The nits: No wrist-strap, date/time battery dead.

Super easy. Exceptional quality pics for the $.
I take pics all of cars and car parts all day-some broken and some in amazing condition. And I go to some pretty remote areas at times. Since it works on AAs I don't ever have to worry about a battery charger or a power outlet. The 16x zoom is the key on this one. I have taken a pic of a carnival wheel from over ten miles(and it is a little fuzzy from that distance but you can tell what it is) and I can get less than 1/2" from that destroyed rod bearing to show the damage. It makes me look pretty good every now and then and I am basically "photographically challenged". Great camera for the money. I wish they still made them.Read full review

good value and quality
I like the manual pop up flash, AA batteries, and video mode quality. The only thing wrong is the scratches on the screen. Also better quality because this model is made in Japan.

Canon Powershot
Great camera! Takes good pics. The only problem is that the "set time & date" shows up every time I turn on camera and I can't get it off, even when I switch the time. It keeps going back to old date. But other than that it takes excellent, clear pics and was a good bargain.Read full review

Great Beginner Camera
I’m a beginner getting into photography and this was the perfect fit for me. I was able to take it on vacation and snap some dope pictures. It’s an old camera so the quality won’t be as amazing as these newer models but it’s a compact easy to use camera. Carry it with me everywhere.Read full review

Excellent Canon Camera
A light but sturdy Canon camera which takes excellent photos and videos and, best of all, uses AA batteries, so no charger required.
