Product Description
The Canon PowerShot A200 is an entry-level digital camera that delivers high-quality digital images at a great price. It's ideal for beginners in digital photography.
It features a 2.0-megapixel CCD sensor that can capture images up to 1,600 x 1,200 pixels, producing prints up to 8 by 10 inches. It's also great for capturing imagery for Web pages. The bright f2.8 lens ensures pictures that are clear and sharp no matter what the occasion. Other features include a 4x digital zoom, built-in flash with red-eye reduction, and a 1.5-inch LCD viewer.
The PowerShot A200 also features Canon's intelligent three-point focusing system--AiAF (Artificial intelligence Auto Focus). With AiAF, the subject is always in focus wherever they are in the frame. Simply point and shoot for great digital images. And it's not just a still camera; the PowerShot A200 is also capable of capturing short video clips.
The PowerShot A200 is also directly connectable to optional Canon printer models CP-100 and CP-10. You can print a photo in just over 80 seconds by simply connecting the digital camera to the direct printer by means of a dedicated cable and selecting an image.
Connect the camera to your Mac or PC via the included USB cable. Canon's software suite for PC/Mac includes the user-friendly Canon ZoomBrowser EX, PhotoStitch, and PhotoRecord.

Terrible Camera
I got this camera for my birthday, and boy was I dissappointed with it. Every time I turned it on it said change the batteries. I changed the batteries and nothing happened. So I returned it and got the same one(I though mine was defective.) It had the same problem! So I returned it again and got the same one. The same problem!!!! But this time I got it to work for a minute. I took 2 or 3 pictures. The Digital zoom on it is terrible. I would advise you not to buy this camera. Dont waste your money...

Recycle time stinks! Choose something else...
Overall, the A200 takes decent pictures. I've used the included software to send pictures via email, and I use an HP Photo printer when I want to print out pictures. Unfortunately, I have finally gotten tired of the S-L-O-W recycle time - that is, it takes forever for the flash to recharge and the lens to refocus after taking a previous photo. Groups posing for pictures have literally gotten up and said, "Forget it!" while waiting for my camera to finally take another picture. It is very frustrating...

Beware of the flash
I find that this is a great camera for taking pictures outside. However, while inside, the camera is pretty useless unless you're a foot away from your subject. In fact, the camera tends to work better in full darkness rather than in partial light. Often I find myself having to carry a disposable camera with me which I use for inside or nighttime pictures. Also, the flash cannot be turned off...I've tried. If you do manage to turn it off, the camera refuses to focus and your pictures come out blurry...

it's not horrible, but i wish i hadn't
i thought i did all the research. i thought i had picked the best camera. i'm glad that it wasn't me who spent the money. i got it as a gift.this camera isn't the worst one on the market, but i have yet to see why this camera would be beneficial over any other cameras. the worst part, i found, was how long it took to focus and how long it took to recharge after using the flash. not to mention the battery life was nearly non-existant, and the quality wasn't as crisp as i had hoped.words of advice...

real nice cam for price
...I thought [this] was a good buy this is a nice peice of equipment. The only things I would like better about the cam is when you record movies. One is that it dont record sound, second you cant zoom when recodring a video, and finally third it only records for 10 seconds at a time. It does a good job for taking pics which it what a digital cam is for so it does its job the whole video idea is a bonus deal anyway. It is a geat cam for its price belive me. Has nice high quality pics....
