The Canon PowerShot A620 incorporates some of the best high-end camera features into a body that’s compact and a joy to use. The 7.1 megapixel camera features a two-inch vari-angle LCD screen that can be turned and twisted in a variety of ways, making photo-taking a breeze – especially self portraits. The Canon PowerShot A620 also uses Canon’s DIGIC II image processor, leading to the ultimate in image quality. With a versatile 4x zoom lens, full manual and automatic modes, and a handy movie mode, there’s nothing this little camera isn’t good for. Less

The precise auto focus system of the EOS 1000D keeps you focused for sharp images. Featuring a diamond-shaped array of seven AF points, this newly improved system delivers outstanding coverage of nearly any subject, both in horizontal and vertical formats. The seven AF points — one high-precision cross-type center AF point with f/2.8 sensitivity and six others compatible at f/5.6 — provide fast, accurate auto focus for any Canon EF lens even when shooting in low-light environments. Focus points can be assigned automatically using one of three different AF modes or manually. Less

byHoward_Creech Sep 25, 2005
145 Helpfuls 146 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Larger LCD screen, 7 megapixels, 4X optical zoom, full manual controls, and AA batteries
Cons Some minor chromatic aberration (purple fringing) and very high noise levels at ISO 400
Recommended it? Yes

Canon's "A" series digicams are justly famous for their no nonsense ergonomics, dependable performance, impressive durability, operational simplicity, and bang for the buck value. Last year's A510 and A520 models sold especially well because Canon listened to what digicam purchasers wanted... Read full review »

Cons lacks some of the features ou might expect/want from an entry level DSLR
Recommended it? Yes

But that doesn't mean it isn't a great beginners camera, and a fantastic value piece of... Read full review »
