I think its a wonderful gadget that helpscapturing and preserving memories fast, fun and easy for Moms and Dads on-the-go with their busy, growing families.This camera is also capable of recording high-quality VGA movies, making it perfect for capturing memories in motion.The PowerShot A720 IS digital camera give consumers interested in the ease of a point-and-shoot camera many of the technological advancements.I Think this an intelligent balance of features, value as a function of price to features.
Good shot-to-shot times and good shutter lag numbers mean that the Canon A720 will be a good no-nonsense digital camera for kids and pets, one that will double as a good video camera with 640x480 recording at 30fps.
In addition to fully automatic shooting the Canon A720 IS features aperture-priority and shutter-priority exposure modes, and even full manual shooting, welcome options for more sophisticated users. There's also a wide range of twelve scene modes, including an Underwater scene mode that adjusts color balance and exposure for use with an optional underwater housing.
This does has some Minor compromises are the low-resolution LCD and a slow flash-recharge cycle.
What I Like: Image quality, range of features, price
What I Don't Like: A little plasticky, barrelling at wide end
