Is the new Canon Powershot A40 the best two- megapixel digi-cam you can buy?
Pros: Manual mode, user-selectable ISO, movie mode Cons: No rechargeable batteries/charger included, mediocre macro performance, average shutter lag/start-up/cycle times Bottom Line: Picture Perfect
Pros: Manual and Stitch Assist Mode, Excellent Image Quality and Noise Reduction, Great Software Bundle Cons: Needs a Four-Directional Pad, No Rechargeable Batteries or Camera Case, Lacks Non-Lossy Image Compression Bottom Line: An excellent, feature-packed 2MP camera.
Pros: Quality pictures, manual controls, movie mode with sound. Cons: Poor macro shots, a bit bulky Bottom Line: Benefits outweigh any downsides
Pros: Value, manual control, construction quality, panorama mode and software, image quality Cons: slight delay in shutter, movie-mode limited to 10 seconds, sometimes frustrating focus Bottom Line: Full of potential
Pros: quality built, manual mode, long exposure, expandable, can use AA battery Cons: serial number erasble, auto focus problem, no 4 way controller, limited movie mode Bottom Line: Canon PowerShot A40: So advanced...it's simple
Pros: high quality images, easy to use, videos with sound, TV out, battery life, manual mode Cons: You'll want to pick up a bigger memory card and rechargeable AA batteries Bottom Line: Monkey in the Middle (*)
Pros: Two words: Manual Mode. Cons: Comes with a small memory card, flash is a bit weak. Bottom Line: Best value 2MP camera!!
Pros: Excellent low light images. Long battery life with good NiMH's. 3x optical zoom. Manual mode. Cons: None are significant. Sticky camera mode dial. Focus could be better. Bottom Line: Love it, but now dreaming of better things to come
Pros: best price/performance, uses CF storage, special accessories available Cons: not great for indoor shooting, a starter camera in some ways Bottom Line: Great camera to grow with.
Pros: Features, video out, software, price. Cons: Heavy, battery life. Bottom Line: |
