You must read the advance user manual guide to get the best of it.
I also recomend getting the Canon compact camera case, fits like a glove and feels protective.
Cons:Memory card with the package only 16MB(I got a ScanDisk 2GB card from Amazon, very good) and the On/Off button is too close and same side as the shutter that you might accidentaly turn off the camera when taking a picture in a hurry.
Other: If you use recargable batteries buy the ones with the highest mAh like NIMH 2500mAh and a worldwide charger (Sony has them)


One thing I would add, the batteries - always use energizer lithium ones. They last around 20 times longer than anything else I have put in a camera. Rechargeables are a waste of time as are standard batteries, they don't last to long. The energizers are quite expensive but well worth the money.

The screen rotates out making it easy to take shots at odd angles - or even take a pic of yourself.
It has an auto setting for us amateurs and more sophisticated settings for the more professional.
The video facility with sound is very useful and great quality.
The only problem I found witn this is the location of the memory card slot - it's in with the batteries, so every time you want to change the card, the batteries fall out. I have the A620 at home and the slot is on the side - much more user friendly.




A lot of research later, I found the Canon A630. I like the large LCD screen and what was even better was the fact that it would fold shut, or rotate so that even I could get into a shot once in a while. Even better than that is the picture quality... I have a picture of a plane towing a glider, and when enlarged you can actually see the tow line.
The reason I gave it four stars is this camera doesn't have the rechargable battery pack that I liked so well with the Nikon. Also, the memory card slot is in the same door as the four AA-batteries and I usually end up spilling my batteries when getting the card out. Not really a big deal now after owning this camera awhile... but I would have preferred somewhere else.


The viewfinder is very nice, the zoom surprisenly good, the video and sound quality also better than I would have thought (and I own a video business). Do consider that the card that comes with it held five photos at most, but we found a 2 gig card at a warehouse club for less than $30. The flash doesn't always go off, but it appears that the photos without flash didn't need the flash. Very simple to use. A friend also likes the hand grip.
It's not light and wouldn't fit in your pocket, but we found that it easily fit into a standard camera case that fits on a belt. Very easy to transfer to the computer. Again, it's only been used a few times, so we have not played with photo quality or printing photos, but so far I would definately recommend the A630 for the money.

I highly recommend this camera!!!

To the rear a 2.5in LCD panel flips out and pivots to allow shooting from all manner of angles. You can easily shoot over the heads of crowds or frame waist-level shots. Or flip the LCD right round to take a picture of yourself!
Shots taken with the A640 may be compared not only with the very best compact cameras but also with digital SLRs. The quality is excellent. Images are extremely clean and crisp - definitely photographs as opposed to snaps.
You can buy extra lenses and even an underwater casing! I'd also recommend buying a light weight tripod for use in low-light and night time conditions, a good case and a good battery charger as the A640 takes 4 AA batteries. With a 2 gig memory stick you can take about 500 shots at superfine 3648x2736 resolution. The detail on shots at that resolution is amazing.
To sum up: the A640 is easy to use, powerful and takes great photographs.


Cons: 1. Eats batteries like nobody's business - I put the included batteries in, took about 12 shots using the flash and within 30 minutes the LCD flashed the weak battery symbol. 2. Shutter lag - powers on quickly enough, but speed between shots is somewhat gimpy.
Other Thoughts: I had an old Sony Maverica with the floppy disk for storage. This is my first REAL digital camera. There are a LOT of adjustable settings, both manual and automatic, that I have yet to play with completely. So far, I'm VERY impressed with this camera and the price has come down quite a bit recently. Get yourself some rechargeable batteries.


The camera takes some good pix even when on automatic settings. I've found the swivel screen to be a huge plus and I use it all the time. I'm pretty tech savy, but think most folks can figure out the advanced features on this camera.
And to top it off, the batteries last ten times longer in this camera than my old Fuji.
Its not the smallest camera out there, but if you don't need to slip it in your pocket, this one's a winner.


The powershot A630 uses the AA batteries which #1 let me use rechargable batteries that I keep on hand yet in a pinch I can always buy new batteries, and #2 gives the camera extra weight. I appreciate the heft of this camera. I find I have fewer blurry pictures due to hand-shake. the Elph was so light that I tended to move the camera as I took the picture.
but here's the part that just flat out sold me on the A630. the swivel screen. as a family, we often take group shots of ourselves - using the timer feature. As we set ourselves up for the photo, we can swing the screen around so we can frame ourselves as the camera is counting down. (I also purchased a tiny flexible tripod which helps with the framing too). When we're not taking pix, I just turn the screen around to help protect it! knock on wood, I haven't broken it yet!
At the highest quality setting, I can only get a few pictures on the memory card, but with 8 mega pixels, even the lower settings give great quality photos.
I have not explored all options/functions/features on the camera, but overall, I love it.

1. Overall, the photo is sharp and of good quality. The flash light is powerful, so expect to have some shadows in the background when you take the pic inside. Perhaps a little bit too sharp for my taste (Canon s40 produces much softer pictures, though sometimes blurred), so I tend to change to manual mode for a more smooth lighting. The super macro mode is a pleasant surprise, and the scene mode works pretty well as well.
2. You can use this to take video for as long as 1 GB memory!
3. It is not a real pocket size digit cam. But it is light and is only slightly noticeable in your kakhi pocket. Not in your jeans though. I have been able to carry this in my pocket during my evening walk and it works perfectly.
Overall, for a Canon digit cam with a price like this, surely a good bargain!



UPDATE--Aug, 2008--I recently just used the video feature on the camera for the first time and it is amazing. The picture is clear and crisp and the sound quality is excellent. I was very pleasantly surprised. I would recommend this camera to anyone. It is always in my purse and I use it often.
