Digital camera reviews of Canon PowerShot A470 7.1MP Digital Camera with 3.4x Optical Zoom (Blue)
Digital camera Review: Wow!
Summary: 5 Stars
I had a Canon camera that was only a couple of years old, go missing. Even though it had a lot more features, I figured that I'd buy a cheap camera to replace it, for now. (Maybe it'll still turn up, if not I may get a fancy camera for a replacement later.)
The old one was 5 Mega pixels, the new one is 7 Mega pixels. What is shocking however, is the amount of improvements that were made in digital cameras, in only a couple of years. While the new camera is relatively cheap, it is vastly better than my old one (and the old one was very highly rated, and from the same manufacturer).
While the old camera would take decent pictures, to get the exposure and colors right, I would always run the pictures through Photoshop's Auto-correct mode, before printing them out. With the new camera, they have somehow improved the electronics so much that every picture looks good straight out of the camera, without any correction in external software. (The external software will further improve on the pictures, but they're pretty good, even without touching them up.)
I don't know if I just lucked out with this particular model of camera, or if every new camera is this good. Anyway, when I need another camera, I'm not going to waste my money on a high end feature loaded camera. I'll just buy another cheap highly rated camera in a couple of years, and by then the advances made will more than outweigh the premium that I'd have to expend to get a loaded camera, now.
All in all, this camera is a great buy, great value, and can't take a bad picture!

Digital camera Review: easy peasy canon
Summary: 4 Stars
it works
brill for wifey so she leaves my canon sx10 IS alone
she points and shoots and the green button idiot mode works great (sorry luvvy)
much better than on my canon g3 (which was the bees knees) where i had to use manual settings
stick a 2 gig sd card in and it takes a thousand shots - she is still on the first charge of the nimh batteries... so you need a decent size card and rechargeables nimh - oh and a decent charger which goes into 10% trickle mode too otherwise you cook em
