LOVE this camera

I bought this camera about 2 months ago and just love it.It takes excellent pictures with minimal effort.MY last camera was a 3.1 mexapixel Nikon so this is definately an improvement.This camera has a lot of nice features which I am still learning how to use.We debated about getting the Canon powershot A630 but a friend of mine has that camera and I actually think this camera takes better "out of the box" pictures.(Of course, the A630 did have a bigger screen which would have been a nice feature...

Not very impressed at all!!!!

This camera takes decent pictures half of the time, the rest suck!!The colors are off, people look darker then they are.Maybe the flash is not strong enough.I have seen pictures from 4 different occasions, mostly indoor, and 1/3 to 1/2 of the pictures come out right.It has an impressive list of features and I really like the design. I did a lot of research before getting it and looked at all the pictures online, but I am not very satisfied with it.I have used a Kodak, Olympus and a Nikon in the...

Awesome camera!

I'm 45 years old and have owned two cameras in my life. So I guess that doesn't make me an expert or anything. My previous camera was a Canon Powershot film camera, purchased 17 years ago for about $150 at Target. And it still works great. People always have said, "That camera takes great pictures." I felt like a genius, but really just bought it because it was on sale. After finally converting over to Macs and loving the iPhoto software, I decided to go digital. I automatically started looking...

Not very good

OK, I've spent years using a nice film camera -- solid body, good, interchangeable lenses, etc. -- so maybe I'm biased, but this camera just doesn't do it for me.For starters, the thing had to go straight from the box to the canon repair center (on my dime natch, as my wife purchased the camera several months before as a birthday present so there was no option to return it to the store once my birthday rolled around, and canon did not offer to pick up the shipping): the image was blurry and overexposed...

Excellent battery life too!

I purchased my A620 in July 2006 prior to a cruise to Alaska.I also purchased both 1 GB and 2 GB SanDisk memory cards and 2 sets of Sony rechargable batteries plus the Sony charger.Before the cruise I took about 600 photos on the original charge of one set of the batteries.The manuals say the batteries should be fully discharged before recharging them, so I then made 6 1GB videos trying to empty them.Then I read in the back of the manual that if you primarily use the optical viewfinder and make...
