Light high quality compact digital camera

Advantages: Light/pocketable high quality all purpose compact digital camera. Minor improvements over A710is
Disadvantages: ISO 1600 poor, Camera Windows software worsened, no wireless file transfer

...of the people. According to Canon Digic III should also allow to obtain faster start-up time, faster autofocus, quicker shutter response time and also it should give better power consumptions. I have used the A710is for some months and to be honest I have not appreciated any real improvement on any of these features. I do not want to say that nothing has been improved but in my opinion it is hardly noticeable. - 19 shooting modes against 10… are ...
...have still the feeling that Canon engineers should work a little bit more in the reduction of buttons with more clever software programming/overall logic. Pity there is not a dedicated button for ISO setting. ISO can be set from ISO 100 to 1600, Auto - ISO 80 to ISO 200 or High Auto ISO 400 to ISO 1600. I have found particularly useful the button that allows to manually compensate the exposure from -2 to 2 stops with 1/3 steps. Most of the parameters ...

Good Digital Camera for every one

Advantages: good features
Disadvantages: limited range

...World, (or even in the Canon range), but it does a little bit of everything and gives a good degree of control over the camera and its different features. The specification highlights are: a. 8.0 Megapixels and 6x zoom b. Optical Image Stabilizer c. DIGIC III processor with Face Detection AF/AE d. ISO 1600 e. 17 shooting modes including VGA movies (30 fps) with sound ...

My Best Digital Camera

Advantages: Direct photo printing, Face Detection technology and in-camera red-eye fix
Disadvantages: Little memory storage included

I loved my Canon advanced point and shoot camera! This is my first digital camera purchase and I'm very satisfied. It has a lot of great features. The price was right. I'm learning more about its capabilities every day. The menu features are clear and concise, very well thought out for beginners like me. I'm now the official photographer for all of my family's get-togethers. The flash is compact but strong. The pre-set film settings for auto, night ...

A720is allrounder

Advantages: Zoom, viewfinder, screen, pic quality, battery life
Disadvantages: Size

...Got it from Jessops while Canon were doing a cashback promotion and worked out around £105. Optical zoom is great for this price and addition of viewfinder is massive bonus. Looks a bit more like SLR than most compacts so may appeal more to men than women without cost implications. Has very simple menus and pre-set modes. Battery life is very good considering screen quality. Sharp pictures with good colour depth and clarity. I use Extreme III 4gb ...

Review of Canon PowerShot A720 IS

Great Camera, great value!

Advantages: Simple to use yet highly customisable, good battery life, crisp LCD screen
Disadvantages: None yet!

...am a big fan of Canon Cameras, and the A720 is no exception. What I love is that it can be as easy as a "point and click" or a feature rich, highly customisable compact camera. The controls are very intuitive, and easy to use - a good size and in the right place! A decent optical zoom is the key feature for me - decent close ups have sometimes been the achilles heel of digital cameras, but not on this one. The unit is well made, and feels like ...
