Digital camera reviews of Canon PowerShot A470 7.1MP Digital Camera with 3.4x Optical Zoom (Gray)
Digital camera Review: Great Point and Shoot
Summary: 5 Stars
I have purchased three of these for camera challenged friends. It takes a great picture and it is one of the simplest cameras on the market to operate. If you want good, easy, cheap and reliable, this is for you. Add a 4 GB card and a set of Duracell Pre-charged batteries and this thing will just keep on keeping on. Not for your Pro photo person.Digital camera Review: Great Product
Summary: 5 Stars
Great camera for first-time user of digital cameras. Easy to use. Clear photos. Wonderful service.Digital camera Review: Great Zoom
Summary: 5 Stars
I had this camera for several month now and discovered that the optical zoom is a great feature.
If you want cheap camera with great abilities - this is your chance. You would not be able to create super effects that $1000 camera can do, but this one is great for simple point to shoot.
It is not very light camera and the battery life is not so great, since it is AA batteries we are talking about. But if you have rechargeable batteries, like I do, it helps a lot. I also have an additional pair of batteries with me when I have long shooting to do.
Remember to read all the features upfront. When it states in the review that it is take a few seconds for camera to recharge the flash - it is true, so if you don't like it, then don't buy this camera, but if it is not bothering you, than go ahead and make a purchase. I new that I will have this issue with flash, but it didn't bother me, so I've got this camera.
One small thing that I don't like is the opening for battery and memory card. It is not easy to get open and I afraid that might break at some point.
I would recommend this camera.
Digital camera Review: Great bang for the buck!!
Summary: 5 Stars
I'm not a fan of the tiny cameras. Have 2 DSLR's (D200's) but felt I needed an easier carry around camera for hiking, fishing and vacations. A friend had the Canon A470 and raved about the image quality, simplicity amd price. Got one from Amazon and love it!! Not too small and a quick picture taker. Perfect for someone with rather large hands. Priced at a little over 100 bucks because it does not have a huge zoom or IS, but it does a great job for basic picture taking.Digital camera Review: Great camera
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a great camera. We love it. It does the job it needs to do.
