@nac, I wish I could understand the conversation btwn U and pratyush but anyways thanks for the link. And I'm going through the manual whenever I'm gettin time to play with this beautiful piece. Now I'm liking the manual operation more. Without u this wouldn't be possible. Thanks again. Now I'm thinking of buying a tripod, could help regarding this also.
I have an SX130IS. My main complaint against it is slow shot to shot time and battery drain. Another thing to mention will be the autofocus hunting during video recording.
I understand that they have improved all of the following in SX160IS.
The Image Stabilization is excellent to say the least. Quality of pictures is brilliant and seem true to life to me. (Please do not use the full Auto mode or the Brain Dead mode.) I prefer taking all my regular photos in the P or Program mode. (I am not patient enough to go for full manual except in a few restricted conditions)
I shut off continuous auto focus as I find it more irritant than useful and unnecessarily drains the battery too.
Enjoy your purchase. You will love it for a long time to come.
