The Canon Powershot A640 Digital Camera may be the best new digicam of 2006

byHoward_Creech Oct 14, 2006
100 Helpfuls 101 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros 10 megapixels, 4X optical zoom, full manual controls, and AA batteries
Cons Some minor chromatic aberration (purple fringing) and very high noise levels at ISO 800
Recommended it? Yes

Canon's "A" series digicams are well known for their bang for the buck, class leading performance, impressive build-quality, creative flexibility, and amazing ease of use. Last year's A620 sold especially well because Canon listened to what digital camera buyers wanted and then created a camera... Read full review »

A replacement for the last year's 7.1-Megapixel Canon PowerShot A620, the Canon PowerShot A640 has upgraded 10-Megapixel resolution, larger LCD screen and other improvements. As a top of the Canon A6-line, I wanted to see how it performs and purchased one as soon as it became available.

I bought this camera to replace my aging Powershot A620. I have had very good luck with Canon cameras. That A620 has taken over 12k photos and videos and it is still going strong.  I paid $120 for the Elph on sale, new in the box.

This Elph 100 HS has been reliable and takes good... Read full review »

Cons - easily broken<br><br>- easily scratched screen
Recommended it? Yes

The first day I got this, it just wouldn't turn on. The battery was fully charged and the camera didn't look damaged. I dislike the fact that it was faulty on the first day. But then I got a replacement one within the next week, and it worked beautifully. I love how clear and colorful the pictures... Read full review »
