I am extremely happy with the purchase of my A630! i bought it about 5 months ago after doing tons of research. i didn't have any particular price range but wanted to stay under $400 for my first digital camera. for a while i couldnt decide between this model, the Canon A640 or a similar Nikon model. I decided the A640 was probably too much for me pixel wise, didn't need 10 MP. I thought the A640 was nicer looking than the A630 with it's black finish but all in all not the best value for me. the Nikon model had a stabilizer and the A630 didn't however the A630 made up for it with all the features it has.
Again, this is my first digital camera so it has been a little tricky learning how all the features work but it's definitely fun to figure it out. The manuals it comes with are pretty much no help at all (thanks canon!).
The battery life is actually better than i thought. It came with a 16MB memory card so i had to upgrade that. i dont have any problem transferring the pictures to my computer.the body is nice and easy to hold for any size hand. I picked a great camera for the money i paid ($257 on amazon) and its fun to use and to experiment with all the features and shooting modes.

I just bought this camera and brought it on a ski trip to Big Sky MT. It takes very little time to learn the different settings on this camera. The Zoom on this camera is great. I was able to get sharp pictures on the slopes from very far away. When in continues mode you can blast away pictures during the action. I love this camera and would recomend it to anyone.

don't fight it. you will look around, drive yourself crazy and incessantly read reviews. there's always going to be something bigger and better but for the price, this is a sweet little (not so little i guess) camera. i'm still figuring out all of the functions, but the macro mode, color accent, and stitch assist are very neat and make creative photography a snap! also, i got a rechargable docking battery charger made by energizer that allows you to charge 8 batteries in 2 removable "pods" so you can always be prepared--battery life is excellent (makes up for the bulky size). i'm leaving for mexico in a few weeks and i can't wait to take this little guy with me. i was debating a for a while whether or not to get the a640 instead, but many reviews have said that it's not worth the 80 or so more bucks. i figured that i'd go for the cheaper, identical version (besides the MPs) b/c it's a PC magazine eidtor's choice and overall customer satisfaction is higher for the a630. i'm still toying with the idea of getting an underwater case, but i probably won't because of the design flaws and huge pricetag...we'll see though, taking the camera in the water would be amazing.
just realize that not every camera has everything (i wish this one had image stabilizaiton and a better flash), but for the price, you make out like a bandit! happy shooting:)

Bought this camera for my parents (70+ years old) about a year ago. It was fairly easy for them to learn and use. It takes good pictures. Batteries do not last long indoors using flash, so you definately need to get a good set of rechargable batteries for indoor use. Would recommend for anyone needing a medium to low end digital camera of good quality.

I bought this for my wife and she loves it. She's actually downgrading from a Nikon SLR film camera to this point-and-shoot and is perfectly satisfied with the features and ease of use of this camera.
In my own evaluation of the camera, I find it remarkably well made and capable of producing surprisingly high quality images. If you're wondering about purchasing a more expensive model with higher megapixel numbers, I'd say save your money. For all around use---family pics, snapshots, etc.---the 5 MP of this camera is more than adequate for 5x7 prints. In fact, it does something my Nikon D80 can't: you can use the display screen to frame shots as well as the viewfinder. An advantage I noticed during a family get together was that 3 of us had these Canons; so if you have trouble figuring out how to use it (unlikely), you'll probably find a relative who can show you how!
My one criticism of this camera---and it's a commentary on many miniaturized electronic devices these days---is its unnecessarily small size. Sure, it makes this camera pocketable, but for large hands it is a bit of a challenge to use. More importantly, the size limits the number of batteries to 2. For a negligible increase in size Canon could have made a camera that uses 4 AA batteries and a shot-to-battery-charge ratio that would be far more practical. Watch how fast you go through a pair of batteries and see if you agree. I'm withholding a star due to the above and also because I noticed the camera advertised locally for much less than I paid on Amazon (obviously not a criticism of the camera, but of Amazon).
Highly recommended.

It wasn't clear to me from the product description how inadequate the memory card included with the camera would be. It came with a 16M card that was full after I shot a half-dozen still images. You'll want to order an upgraded card (I went with a 1G SanDisk card) at the same time that you order the camera, otherwise you won't be able to do much with it. Otherwise I've been pretty happy with the camera, although I'm still playing around with different settings, lighting, etc.

This camera is great for the money. The photos are big and crisp and the effects are not complicated to figure out. It is not hard to figure out how to use it.
The drawbacks are typical for cameras of all the cameras of this price range, regardless brand name. (I have used Nikons and Olympus versions of the same.) The big screen on the Canon is real nice, but not bigger than other brands' version of the same camera.
The drawbacks are simple:
1) The flash has a narrow range of effectivness indoors. Too close, you wash out. More than 5 feet away? Too dark. You practically have to be an expert in Photoshop to be able to use indoor photos taken in medium dark to dark conditions.
2) Delay. If you want to take action photos with the flash, forget it. There is a 1-2 second delay (depending on battery power). Again, you can't get around this with other brands. It is pretty much the same for all brands at this price range. This doesn't mean i don't recommend this camera, just to realize its limitations and work with and around them.
3) Battery drain. The flash and screen suck out battery power faster than you can say "cheese." BUY RECHARGEABLES NOW. Otherwise you will be wasting a large amount in double A's.
If you are mostly taking photos in well-lit outdoors type situations, these types of cameras are great. You probably will be frustrated if you want to do more than occasional photos indoors, but again, this doesn't have to do with Canon or any particular brand. If you want better you will have to spend more.

Canon PowerShot A460 5.0MP Digital Camera with 4x Optical Zoom (Silver)
This arrived promptly in excellent new condition. The camera is automatic in every way and serves as a great, economical camera for a photographer that wants to shoot and go! So many people, when they view my slideshows or photos, ask what kind of camera I use; the quality is exceptional.

Having used two other digital cameras for the past 4 years, I was forced to buy a new one when the last one stopped working properly. I spent hours looking at options and features and comparing prices. I could not be happier with the Canon Powershot A620. After reading some of the reviews that talk about the large size of the camera, and the flimsy door that covers the data port, I was not getting my hopes built up too far until the camera arrived. This camera is smaller than my last one, and fits very nicely in your hands and is comfortable and easy to handle. As for the flimsy door, get over it. It serves its purpose and as long as you don't treat it like it's made of steel, it will probably be fine. Now, all that out of the way, here's what I really think. For less than $300, I bought the camera and a 1G SD Memory Card. In a resolution much higher than is necessary for 4.5x6" snap shots, I can take more than 500 photos on the card. I played with the camera for more than a week before the AA batteries started going dead. Now, we've been more than two weeks on the rechargeable batteries, without being recharged. We have stored close to 250 photos, and probably taken twice that while learning what all the camera can do. It does have some nice, fancy features, but it's also easy to use for someone who wants to just point and shoot. However, the camera does have its way of telling you where it is focusing or if it is in danger of being blurred by shaky hands. If you watch for this, you can readjust before taking a picture. One thing that I am the most pleased with is the speed of turning on the camera and shooting the first picture, and any subsequent pictures after that. FAST!!! (For a digital camera) I would say it's less than 2 seconds from the time you turn the camera on, until it has flashed the 1st picture if you can move your fingers that fast. There is a way to turn the review off so it's instantly ready for the next picture. It is taking me a little time to get used to what the camera prioritizes for aperture and shutter speed, but I am not disappointed with the camera at all. Another thing I really like is the swivel ability of the LCD screen. I hope this helps someone else make the decision easier than I did.

I have had my new Powershot A530 for about 7 days now and this seems to be a tiny little camera that packs quite a punch. I didn't realize that it had so many options when I made the purchase! This camera has MANY more bells and whistles than I need and although I am looking forward to learning them all I feel that it is a little overwhelming right out of the box. Don't get me wrong - right out of the box you can take a great picture even if you did not want to learn anything more about the camera and its other capabilities at all! It is very easy -- insert batteries, insert memory card, push the power button and you are ready to roll but MY GOSH the options on this little thing!
I really enjoy learning and using all the functions on my cameras and home electronics but this one may take me a while. You can make adjustments in the functions of this camera very similar to how you would in a regular 35mm camera! Which would be really great if I remembered ANY of my high school photography class lectures.. sadly - I don't. It feels like it is something that could take years to really get genuinely familiar with which will be a fun process in itself.
I am planning a trip to Italy and I wanted to get a digital camera (my first one) in plenty of time to have a couple of months to learn how to use it properly.. WOW, I may have to postpone my trip! :-)
The software that comes with it is SUPER easy to navigate, incredibly easy to install and downloading pix from the camera is a snap-snap-snap!
I also picked up the 1 GB memory card, the 2 year warranty, and thanks to so many reviews talking about the short battery life I got a dozen AA batteries - so I am pretty well set! :-)
I can't wait to get buckled in, take her out and really open her up.:-)
A great little camera and a great value, 7 days into the experience anyway :-)

If you do not want to go for digital zooms, I can confidently say that this is the best digital camera. The night mode feature is superb. You dont need to hold steadily for a long time in night-mode to get good quality pictures. This also works in all cases where the light is less. Trying in auto-mode without the flash on also gives extremely good results under less light condition. Pistures taken from moving vehicle under dim light is excellent. So the anti-shake feature is also great. It also has a good macro feature! To sum up, this is a very handy good-quality camera.

This camera was purchased for a eleven year old as a middle school graduation gift. She adores it. The camera has held up to constant use, battery life is good. The camera is simple and easy to use. We also purchased a Kingston 2GB SD card so that the movie function on the camera could be used. Also purchased a flash reader so that the photos could be uploaded to the computer without connecting the camera directly (saves on batteries). This camera was such an excellent price for the quality and ease of use that we just purchased the same camera again with the Kingston 2GB card and flash reader. This time, it was a birthday gift for a twelve year old. We have no complaints - the product is a good product for the price. P.S. If you purchase the SD card and reader at Best Buy, you will pay nearly double the cost that you will pay through Digital Media Source.

I received this camera for Christmas. I was a little anxious when I saw the box of instructions but then realised that only half were in English and I could dispose of the rest. I have never had a digital camera before but the instructions were easy to follow, the camera was easy to operate and produced great pictures with very little effort from me. I would definately recommend it.

I've had MANY digital cameras over the years... probably 11 digital camera's since 1999.
In that time I've learned what I do and don't like about digital cameras. My issue has always been balancing performance, features and value. The Canon Powershot A620 fit my needs perfectly.
Some of my requirements fulfilled by this camera:
* Great picture quality
* FAST: Startup, buffer, picture to picture, flash recharge, etc. My wife demands this even more than I do now that we've got kids).
* Takes AA batteries: My brother and I debate this all the time (he's always had the Canon S series cameras with the proprietary lithium battery). He says he likes how long his batteries last. I like using cheap, always available AA batteries... especially rechargeable ones.
* Sturdy: My wife would be using this camera with kids pulling on her all the time... the camera's going to eventually get some bumps / drops.
* Works with a program I found online called Cam4you remote: This program let me use my A620 as a VERY high resolution web cam. No need to buy a second web cam that would end up having crappy resolution.
* FAST... yeah, already mentioned this, but other than the Cyber-shot DSC-S600 this is the fastest camera I've owned.
* Battery Life: Very competitive and beats most other camera's I've had.
Only complaints about this camera are:
* A little bigger than we would have liked, but other features outweigh this con.
* Wish it only needed 2 AA batteries instead of 4. This would have made the body smaller, but I'm guessing I would have to give up on speed / length of battery life.

I bought the SX100 as an everyday camera so I wouldn't have to lug around my Canon 30D DSLR. I've had it for a week now and it takes very decent pictures for a P&S. I haven't used a P&S in a couple of years since buying my my DSLR so it took some getting used to.
I took a couple of shots yesterday of my daughter and while it doesn't have the clarity of a DSLR (obviously) I got some very nice shots with really nice, sharp eyes.
My only gripe so far is that I wish it had a viewfinder. That may not be an issue if you're used to P&S cameras without one but I find myself putting the camera up to my face like I do my 30D.

I went from the Olympus C-5050 (not a point & shoot but not professional either) to the Canon A630. I like to take a lot of natural light pictures and this camera absolutely stinks for this. The flash doesn't produce a lot of light and the natural light pictures are uselessly blurry even when I brace it on something to hold down movement. I've been very unhappy with this camera in every indoor setting, shaded outdoor setting but I have been happy with it outside.
I wanted a lighter camera to take fun shots with but even my fun shots like the llama show I went to.. are pretty much useless. I'm going to be getting rid of this camera. I've taken hundreds of pictures on it and it's just making me madder every time.

We got this camera because we're about to have a baby and wanted a great camera that's almost like SLR camera but easy enough that strangers can take pictures for us. This camera satisfies that!

This is a great camera for its price! It has tons of features that are fun and easy to use. It also has multiple size settings for photos, which is helpful if you wish to save space on your memory card. The smallest setting is all that is needed if you are not intending to print your pictures (i.e. if you're putting them on the web) and even at the highest quality setting for these you can still take about 55 (that's using the small memory card included)! For people printing a majority of their pictures, I would suggest purchasing a larger memory card. Batteries seem to last a decent amount of time during usage of the camera. The coloring and quality of the images seems great!

Canon makes good, dependable cameras at a good price. I had the older version of this same camera for several years. It was 2.1mp and still works fine but I needed to upgrade. I gave the old camera to my daughter and now use the A540. It takes great pictures and movies even in low light situations.
I consider it a huge advantage that the A540 uses 2 AA batteries. I have several sets of rechargeables and I can get a lot of pictures from each set. Also, a big advantage of AAs over specialty batteries is that if you are on a trip or have an emergency and need batteries fast, you can purchase AAs almost anywhere in the world.
One other thing I have always appreciated about my Canon is never having trouble downloading the pictures. I can connect my camera to any computer running XP and my camera has always been detected. This has not been true of other brands of digital cameras at the place where I work.
I also purchased a 2 gig SD memory card. This is the maximum size card that you can use with the A540. I did not get the most expensive, high speed card and so far I have not noticed any problems.
Finally, I chose this camera because it will take pictures in total, mindless "AUTO" mode or you can take complete control of all settings. It allows for aperture and shutter speed control and even manual focus. Very cool.
