Jacks, Ports & Plugs

The Canon PowerShot SX130 IS has a minimal number of ports, presumably to keep the body small. On the right side there's a single flap that covers a shared USB / AV-out jack, and a DC power jack. On the left side is a removable, button-type battery. The SD card and AA batteries load from the bottom.
