That being said, the camera is only $250, so we were probably expecting too much. I own a Canon 30D SLR and several lenses, so I don't have a thing against Canon. The 30D is an incredible semi-pro camera that I highly recommend if you don't mind the bulk and price of an SLR.
I had to call customer service to figure out how to make selctions but I still don't know why I would want to make them. The manual is completely silent on why/when/for what purpose I would want to use these features. I won't even discuss how could I remember all those features if I were out actually taking pictures of something--which I haven't ventured to do. I've just stayed home taking practice shots of my cat and erasing them. Huh
After several weeks, I have not yet ventured into the how-to-print manual or that computer disc that comes with the third manual.
I asked customer service if Canon sponsors classes in how to use these little suckers. No.
I am not at all pleased with this purchase.
The PowerShotA540 does all that.
There are even more lenses available for it other than the ones Canon makes. I highly recommend the macro lens. It enables you to take astounding shots.
If you want full control and top quality photos, buy a D-SLR: you will get far better quality photos.
However, if you want a bit of both worlds: a relatively small 'budget' camera that can fit in a large pocket which snaps picture that look great out of the camera (many more 'pro' cameras need significant amounts of post processing in Photoshop to sharpen and enhance colours) AND which lets you take control of the camera; then this is definitely for you.
Pros:
Full control when you want it, excellent snaps when you don't.
Quick processor makes camera feel very fast.
AA batteries (buy 2500mAh for HUGE battery life) and can run on normal 'consumer' batteries if they ever run out.
Excellent photos right out of the camera.
Manual focus.
4x zoom
Software that comes with it is well rounded.
Good movie mode for occassional video.
Has panorama stitch mode.
Minuses:
Quite chunky and heavy (mainly due to 4xAA batteries)
Manual poor (ubt when aren't they).
Zoom only has 7 or so steps.
Lovely camera you can throw in a bag, take great snaps, but when you see something interesting you can take a bit more time to compose the perfect photo. I've had mine for several months now and am liking it more and more. Maybe one day I'll buy a DSLR, but I would still keep this camera.
PS. Takes particularly great portrait shots.
I got the camera delivered in a reasonable time of about 4 days from the day I ordered unlike Dell which placed my order in their backorder list and put a 10-day wait time before shipping it out. However, I noticed a small issue with the display panel's hinge. The display panel when closed back, comes out a bit and is not getting aligned with the body. Thought of returning this for a different piece but then decided to adjust with it.
I bought the A530 for my daughter when it became available on Amazon. She had taken photos, with her three-year-old Sony 5MP, of her roses in macro mode. Most of the photos were out of focus. The Sony just seemed to have trouble focusing on the right subject in macro mode. I have found that Canon cameras take excellent photos, especially in macro mode, and the A530 has not disappointed. She (and I) have taken many sharply focused photos of flowers, up close.
LIKES: Very good quality, features, and price. Sharp and colorful photos. Easy to use, small and lightweight. Improved over the A520 with 5MP instead of 4MP and MUCH faster performance.
DISLIKES: Canon's decrease of LCD pixel resolution per inch on the lastest models - A430, A530, A540. A disappointment, but only a small annoyance.
ADDED NOTE: Daylight photos are always better over indoor flash shots, whenever possible, with any camera.
Only negative is that memory card that comes with camera is inadequate. You will need to purchase a memory card. The good news is that memory is getting cheaper all the time. I purchased a 1GB card....which holds 300 pictures or more.....
