Canon A520 4.2 Megapixel

Pros: Price, size, picture quality, optics, resolution, features, responsiveness, AA batteries

Cons: Flash overexposes macro shots and leaves shadow in corner, recycles slowly, no battery status indication

The Bottom Line: I highly recommend the Canon PowerShot A520 if you need an inexpensive yet capable compact camera that produces excellent photos with print sizes...

Review: When I saw that using some coupons available at the time, I could get a C anon PowerShot A520 for only $180 at Dell, I immediately ordered it (along with the C anon A510 for ...

Review: Back in December I was the lucky recipient of my first ever Digital camera. This gift moved me into a whole new world of taking images. The camera I received was the Canon Power Shot A400 Camera. It was very simple to use. My daughter recently picked ...

Review: Two months ago, my wife and I lamented at how our Toshiba PDR-3300 (3.2 megapixels, 2.8x optical zoom) broke down right when our newborn son had come home. As with our first son, we wanted to take a slew of pictures of the cute, little guy, but the ...

Cons: floppy rubber cover to access cable ports on the side.

Review: I searched the web for many hours looking for a great, easy to use camera. I found many that were close in features and price. The Canon won me over for style, features, size and price. It's the best camera I've owned to date for the money. Picture ...

Pros: Great Camera!

Cons: Long lag time

Review: I bought this camera in Oct. of '05, and it worked wonderfully. It has a longer lag time than some more expensive cameras, but for the money you can't beat it. It was priced close to a Sony I considered, but the zoom was a little better and the sales ...

Cons: None so far.

Cons: A little slow "recording" to the SD card.

Review: I love this camera. I received a Canon PowerShot A520 digital camera for Christmas (2005) and use it all the time. The 4-megapixel photos are clear and crisp and the camera is VERY easy to use. It uses a secure digital (SD) card which is becoming less ...

Pros: Price, easy to use, excellent software, awesome photos, large view screen, size.

Cons: Red eye, slightly slower than expected writing to the data card and down loading.

Review: This camera is a real treasure. I was worried about 4 Mp not being sufficient, 8x10 enlargements are awesome. Battery power is no problem - buy the 2300 mh rechargeable batteries 2 - 3 days of picture taking. Slight red eye problem but is easily removed ...

Pros: Great picture quality, easy to use, nice size. Highly recommend it.

Cons: Flimsy side panel cover.

Review: I've had the A520 for about a month and am very happy with it. I can stick it on fully automatic mode and it takes consistently great photos. I can also play around with the multiple modes when I want to be more creative and go for special effects. I ...
