Canon PowerShot ELPH 160 (IXUS 160) prices and specs
The Canon PowerShot ELPH 160 (IXUS 160) was produced on Jan 5, 2015. For now the lowest price for the camera is 129.99.
The Canon PowerShot ELPH 160 (IXUS 160) belongs to the category of ultracompact cameras. Its main benefit is a small size: the photographer can even put it in the pocket. The camera has different automatic modes but you won't take pictures of the same great quality in comparison to large sensor compact cameras.
The camera can take pictures at 20 megapixels max resolution. But for better picture quality the more important specification is a sensor size. This model has a 1/2.3' (6.17 x 4.55 mm) sensor which means that the camera will produce pictures with not so high quality as cameras with bigger sensors but instead it has another advantage - the PowerShot ELPH 160 (IXUS 160) has portable size. But if you want to shoot pictures of the best quality pay attention to Sony Alpha 7 II.
The camera has max shutter speed of 1/2000 sec. It is an average shutter speed which is rather good for shooting action pictures of a satisfactory quality. The camera owner will be able to shoot HD videos that guarantees a good image quality.
The lens is fixed and you won't be able to switch it. The lens provides good 8x optical zoom.
The Canon PowerShot ELPH 160 (IXUS 160) battery life will be enough to shoot up to 220 pictures.
