Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Canon PowerShot A460 5.0MP Digital Camera with 4x Optical Zoom (Silver)

Customer Review: Simple to use, exceptional features for price
Summary: 5 Stars

My 11 year old daughter did yardwork all spring to earn $$ for a decent digital camera. We then studied reviews, and found the Canon PowerShot A460. She has carried and used this camera non-stop for the past month, and it continues to stand up to abuses while taking photos better than my more expensive (older) Canon digital. She loves it, and is the envy of her group of 11 year old buddies. They make movie shorts, take it to the beach and sleepovers, roll under the dog, etc. The controls are intuitive, and under her own power she's figured out how to attach it to the TV to show off her work to family, download photos to our computer and send them to friends, send images to Costco for processing (with my permission), etc. I love that it used AA batteries. This wonderful little camera is keeping her entertained and educated all summer. Oh, and the photos really are amazing.

Customer Review: Canon Digital Camera 460 (4mp Zoom)
Summary: 5 Stars

This camera was purchased for a eleven year old as a middle school graduation gift. She adores it. The camera has held up to constant use, battery life is good. The camera is simple and easy to use. We also purchased a Kingston 2GB SD card so that the movie function on the camera could be used. Also purchased a flash reader so that the photos could be uploaded to the computer without connecting the camera directly (saves on batteries). This camera was such an excellent price for the quality and ease of use that we just purchased the same camera again with the Kingston 2GB card and flash reader. This time, it was a birthday gift for a twelve year old. We have no complaints - the product is a good product for the price. P.S. If you purchase the SD card and reader at Best Buy, you will pay nearly double the cost that you will pay through Digital Media Source.

Customer Review: Best Camera for Research
Summary: 5 Stars

I love this camera! I am not a professional photographer, however, I love taking pictures and being able to send them to my mom from school. This summer, I was involved in research with my professor. I needed a good digital camera that was able to provide quality images for poster and oral presentations. My images were quite vivid and clear in my powerpoint presentations as well as the appearance on my poster! It was great! Also, the video half of my camera is the bomb!... The sound is all there as well as the picture quality... Once again, a great camera! I love my camera and I take it everywhere I go... Only downside... You'll have to by a large memory card because the one it comes with only allows 5 to 7 pictures. I bought a SanDisk 2 Gig card and it works beautifully. College students who like simple picture-taking...this is the ideal camera for you!

Customer Review: Best Camera for the Price and Quality
Summary: 5 Stars

Pros:Best Price, Simple to use, compact, good zoom, enough pixels(you can adjust the amount of pixels on a photo, which saves memory space), uses 2 AA batteries, great quality photos and movies.
You must read the advance user manual guide to get the best of it.
I also recomend getting the Canon compact camera case, fits like a glove and feels protective.

Cons:Memory card with the package only 16MB(I got a ScanDisk 2GB card from Amazon, very good) and the On/Off button is too close and same side as the shutter that you might accidentaly turn off the camera when taking a picture in a hurry.

Other: If you use recargable batteries buy the ones with the highest mAh like NIMH 2500mAh and a worldwide charger (Sony has them)

Customer Review: Nice Little Point and Shoot Camera
Summary: 5 Stars

This is a great point and shoot camera. It is very compact, which makes it easy to carry in a pocket, and the price is reasonable. The selling point for me was that it takes regular AA batteries. No more having to purchase expensive camera batteries and it was very convenient to be able to pick up batteries at any store while on vacation. I am very satisfied with the quality of images and haven't encountered blurred images with the A460, which was a huge problem with my last digital camera.

The only downside I found with this camera was the memory card was too small. That is easy enough to fix by purchasing a new one. Overall, I am very happy with this camera and I am glad that I had it to capture vacation memories.
