Brighter than the reality!

Have 2 years with Samsung PL50 photographed (38-114mm) because it is still installed without wide angle: Turn on and the normal focal length = normal human vision is immediately there, the display shows the natural ambient light and pressed trigger, done. Home on the PC I was able to correct it if necessary, manipulate; zoom, auschnitt, color, brightness, etc ..... have the but rarely done ... Unfortunately, my camera was stolen ...... therefore must 06.2013 a new forth.
As orientation served me the extensive types and data lists on chip.de. The selection criterion was: the best picture quality (BQ) ..... price to about 150, euro..
This leads to Canon Ixus 500HS (79% BQ) and Canon Ixus 125HS (77% BQ).

Canon Ixus 125:
when switching is immediately and exclusively to the wide angle of 24mm da.Dh: but much too unnatural image signal depth = stretched perspektive.Zoomt is now up there is only one light beam without scale, without pay as a guide .... you can so no Focal Length remember, let it set for wiederfinden.So wobbles you around the best, felt, variable einstellung.Nach the off, and turn then goes back all over again ... (. where is the idea of ​​easy handling of a compact if I only have snapshot for each search all new and set up?)

The picture quality is good, or too well ... that is, the image quality is consistently increased, artificially raised: what I see is there on display and the PC brighter and more colorful than the reality. I get the environment not as it is but embellished with artificial light candy colors. (As preset basic setting and automatic mode)

The upper arrow key leads to helligkeitsregulierung.Balken with scale in 1/3, 2/3 of steps. If one now - a 1/3 arises about the natural brightness of the surroundings. This setting remains stored and must not exclusively after each, and then on to be readjusted! Bravo!
The same applies to the other manual settings and automat.blitz as IS0 values, white balance and Color function. (With colorn = normal can alleviate the candy colors of the auto setting.)
Double-clicking on Disp. (Image file) can also get a histogram and other values.

- The battery can not be in the camera aufladen.Jedesmal expand, enter into charging cradle, upload and reinstall.

- Videos can be in Full-HD, rotate in HD and SD.
The video recording in P mode does not take place with the manually set values ​​for ISO, color, etc. but for helligkeit.Hier the scale jumps back to 0.
However, the Auto setting is in video mode other than the Photo mode; natural, better.The quality (Full HD and automatic mode) is impressive. Tolls worth the purchase alone for it. Even with a Canon Ps.1200 has given me the quality of the HD video like better than the photos since everything seems to color, and light levels naturally. The consequence would be not to shoot photos but instead to turn short stills, ca 5 sec.lang and a media player to use as sequential image viewer.
I have therefore a camcorder to 100 euros ordered Sanyo VPC-CG21EX SD High Definition Camcorder (10 megapixels, SD / SDHC card slot, 35mm wide angle, Full HD Video)
to make a comparison in terms of performance and handling of digi-came to camcorder.Die digital camera has won it. (S.rezension there)

Unfortunately, the start button video with the program-button video identisch.Man therefore chooses to ..... and thus in 16: 9 and already ..... not start the aufnahme.Vorschau möglich.Zudem is the start button head and flat installed so that when you press a camera shake caused muß.Beenden, can be achieved by pressing the shutter button, so without blurring.

Conclusion
- Really good, is the 3in display. They allow you to get used to. When I later a camera with 2,7zoll display used was a crash: everything seemed much smaller and square.

- Very good, the video recordings in full HD.

- The extra; Model-ie direct recording view in tilt-shift, model is really fun and has a certain addictive. The candy-color of the auto-setting fit in well with this minuatureffekt.
Software such as photo and share tiltshift.generator, on the other hand is the effect inserts retrospectively in existing photos cumbersome and result not so great (to narrow sharpness window, etc.).

Negative
- Annoys me the non-nameable and not fixing bare focal length. Constantly a random value adjustment must rumgedrückt on the zoom lever, be accepted. If it would still enter a lock, -or memory function.

- The raised color and light values ​​in automatic mode are corrosive. If you reset the but could neutralize, so that you really on two modes at any time: can draw P and auto.

Remedy:
Internal Canon software can be complemented by the extensive, free software CHDK .This is available for most Canon models, also for the Ixus 125 (but not for the 500HS) .man it invites from the Internet down to SD memory card which wird.Viele formatted according to new parameters can now be set, also scripts for custom applications can be written. (Info Product: Spiegel Online netzwelt that can CHDK). Unfortunately there is no software.Schade for the firmware of my test-Ixus 125 (yet).

An individual and permanent establishment of the camera parameters is not possible to me.
This Ixus 125 therefore goes back to Amazon.
