Compact yet capable, the DSCWX9 digital camera caters to those who like to snap pictures on the go. The 16.2-megapixel CMOS image sensor captures detailed images even in low light. A high-performance Carl Zeiss Vario-Tessar lens with 5x optical zoom gets closer to the action, and the wider angle is great for group shots. Shoot video in 1080i for the ultimate recording power. And best of all, this little beauty is small enough to slip in your pocket. Less

Canon Powershot A620 Digital Camera G-series performance at an A-series price

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

Santa, err... my stepson purchased this small bundle of technological joy for my wife for the holidays.  I already own the Sony Cybershot DSC-H9 and back in 2007, it cost me around $450 for a mere 8.1 megapixels.  About the size of eighteen credit cards stacked together, this WX9...
