its a good choice

i think this Canon PowerShot A540 is a good choice for non-professional & low-budget photographers. When I opened the package, i was like "what!, It is very light." It is easy to carry and hold. Included software is good. Night shots are not so professional, but it's still ok. I think this is a reasonable machine....

Too Much Corner Cutting

I guess that this camera does the most important thing well. The images that it produces are very good. I wouldn't have expected less from Canon.However, given how much digital technology supposedly has progressed over the past 3 years, I'm somewhat disappointed.Let me explain. First off, the A540 is a replacement for a Canon A70 that finally died after 3 years. Unfortunately for me, I learned that Canon was replacing non-functioning LCD screens due to a known product defect. I only found this out...

NOVICE LOVE'S THIS CAMERA!

Based on all the wonderful reviews I read on the A540 I choose this as my first digital camera, and glad I did! Awesome camera for the money, and the most important factor to me was the big 2.5 LCD, I love it! Simple to read instruction manuel had me ready to start shooting in minutes! Believe me,if I can do this anyone can!The first week I took it with me to "Bobby Q's" birthday bash and it took fabulous pictures in a dimly lit restaurant. I passed the camera around for everyone to review photo...

This Camera is TERRIBLE in low light conditions

I can't believe all the people raving about this camera.All I can figure is that these are the kind of people whose idea of photography is to line the family up from tallest to smallest in the driveway on holidays and flash away.This camera appears to me to have been designed by an egghead who values pixels far above f-stops.The camera's programming is guaranteed to give blurry pictures anytime you shoot without a flash in anything less than full sunlight.Let me give you an example:I just stepped...

Wonderful starter camera

For the price of $200-$300 and the quality it provides, this is an excellent camera for a beginner as well as a professional.I research online for a few months trying to find a decent camera. The main thing for me was mobility, and price. I wanted to buy a camera in the mid 200s but that still had a good quality picture. This camera more than delivers.--- Pros ---1. Small and light weight2. Uses 2 AA batteries3. Very good feature set in camera4. SD memory5. Amazing photos and videos6. Very well...
