Camera OverviewCanon PowerShot ELPH 130 IS

The Canon PowerShot ELPH 130 IS is a point-and-shoot compact camera built around a 16MP, 1/2.3-inch sensor paired with Canon's DIGIC 4 image processor. Designed for everyday photography, it keeps things approachable without sacrificing image quality fundamentals. The ISO range runs from 100 to 6400, giving shooters flexibility in a variety of lighting conditions.

On the back, a 3.0-inch LCD with 461,000 dots of resolution provides a clear, usable framing and review experience that holds up well for a camera in this class. Autofocus is handled by a contrast detection system, which is well-suited to the deliberate, casual shooting style this camera is built for. Image stabilization is optical, meaning the camera uses physical lens compensation to reduce the effect of camera shake rather than relying on a digital crop.

Connectivity includes built-in Wi-Fi and USB, making it straightforward to transfer images to a computer or compatible device without hunting for a card reader. Storage is handled via SD, SDHC, or SDXC cards, covering a wide range of available media. Video recording is supported at up to 30fps.

The battery is a Lithium-Ion NB-11L. Overall, this is a compact, connectivity-friendly camera aimed at casual everyday use.
