It was clear to me that so so small chip, as he's just built into the compact cameras can not deliver the quality, like a chip in the APS format cameras in the system from SAMSUNG
But after so many positve reviews of the Canon SX 230 HS I made the purchase and am quite satisfied.
The imaging performance of the lens is good to very good, keeps the noise even at ISO 800 and ISO 1600 limited.
For me, it was also important that the camera has many manual controls.
It really is all there.
I wished I had but a selectable Auto ISO setting the limit at 800 or 1600 ISO.
The input dynamic range (displayable contrasts) but could be better.
The processing of the camera is high quality.
A good camera for all occasions, you can have it forever.
