Introduction

My Canon A620 digital camera has been a faithful backup camera for over a year now. It does pretty much everything I ask of it and it's made me a big fan of Canon's A-series cameras. The next step up from this series of camera is Canon's G-series, which is supposed to be the... Read full review »

I am not a professional photographer but I have owned several digital cameras, including the Canon G2, G4 and G6.

One of the Better Efforts

byheartshot77 Sep 16, 2009

Pros Best lens for a P&S, wide angle ability, good focus and images
Cons LCD looks like it's from the 90's!
Recommended it? Yes


Overview
Canon's latest digital Elph model may be their best P&S camera ever. It's certainly better than the G10 or G11 and costs less. This is a tiny credit card sized camera with a 3" screen. The screen actually ends up with a 2.5" viewable area. It weighs in at just over 5 ounces... Read full review »
