Canon PowerShot A650 IS

I bought the Canon A650 IS Digital Camera last August and i have been using it ever since. I am totally satisfied with it. It is really one of the best value digital cameras out in the market today. I bought it because i was looking for a camera that can take the pictures with the highest mega pixels and the A650 certainly fits the bill with its 12.1 megapixel capability.

Nevertheless, depending on the price you might be able to get this camera for, its looks my longer matter. My friend recently bought this ... more

My plan was to find a camera that didn't keep me waiting on expensive batteries to recharge and an optical viewfinder for when the sun was too bright to read the screen. With the Canon A650 IS the optical viewfinder did not show the same amount as the screen and that was my only real complaint. Yes, it's a little bulky (300g - finding the right case did take some time) but very comfortable in my hands with all the buttons easily available.
