Canon PowerShot A620

You've never seen anything quite like the PowerShot A620. Loaded with features, this high-performance camera has a 7.1 Megapixel CCD to give you magnificent pictures at a price... more...that will amaze you. And it's easy to use. Everything about this superb camera has been designed for your picture-taking pleasure. And that makes it fun! The PowerShot A620 has 7.1 Megapixels that let you shoot with amazing precision. The crisp detail and brilliant true-to-life color is simply amazing. But it's only the beginning, because these high-quality images have the resolution you need to create the larger prints you've always wanted. Plus, the longer, retractable 4x Optical Zoom lens lets you get in close to intimately capture life's small, magical moments. The PowerShot A620 has a big 2.0-inch LCD screen with an astonishing 115,000 pixels of resolution. So whether you're setting up your shot or playing it back, everything is bright and clear. The vari-angle design lets you swivel the LCD screen 180° to the front of the camera and display either a mirror image or a non-reversed image so you can shoot from just about any position. The PowerShot A620's cleanly integrated grip gives you a comfortable, steady hold. And you can count on exact focus no matter where your subject is in the frame. Plus, you've also got Special Scene Mode that gives you breathtaking, exhilarating pictures even when shooting conditions are tough. The PowerShot A620 is powered by Canon's DIGIC II Image Processor. Designed to improve processing speed and image quality, DIGIC II provides markedly faster camera startup, autofocus and playback, plus it assures that every image is more colorfully vibrant. Now A620 enables you to record QVGA (320 x 240), 60 fps movies up to 1 minute. PowerShot A620 also supports the USB 2.0 Hi-Speed standard, so you'll enjoy the highest possible data transfer speeds when using a USB 2.0 compatible computer. The camera's performance level is high enough to take full advantage of super-high-speed SD memory cards as well. The PowerShot A620's Print/Share button makes direct printing easier than ever. Simply connect the A620 to any PictBridge compatible photo printer, press the lighted Print/Share button and print! Also use the Print/Share button to transfer images directly to a computer.

Full review

The Canon A620 was my 1st digital camera. I really like it alot. The main reason I went with this particular Canon camera is the swivel lcd screen. The swivel screen comes in handy in so many ways especially for a hobbiest like me. It allows you the flexability in creativity in your shots. Another reason I chose this is the Manual settings. It gave me the chance to tinker around on the manual settings to see how it is. I learned I really enjoy photography alot with this camera and plan to take some photography classes as a result of playing with this camera. I now own a Canon 30d slr and it's awesome! Now for the reason I gave this a 4 out of 5 is because mainly because the color of the photos were not as accurate as I would like it to have been. It seemed more yellowish in color. Photoshop took care of that. It's not as small as the newer pocket cameras but it's great for a hobbiest and it has 7 megapixels for great quality photos and the ability to crop!
