Canon PowerShot A620 Digital Camera

Pros: Larger LCD screen, 7 megapixels, 4X optical zoom, full manual controls, and AA batteries
Cons: Some minor chromatic aberration (purple fringing) and very high noise levels at ISO 400

Canon's "A" series digicams are justly famous for their no nonsense ergonomics, dependable performance, impressive durability, operational simplicity, and bang for the buck value. Last year's A510 and A520 models sold especially well because Canon ...

Pros: Good image quality, fast operation, tilt and swivel LCD, great battery life, easy to use.
Cons: Poor viewfinder coverage, plastic tripod mount, high noise at ISO 400, flimsy port covers.

Introduction In my never ending search for a backup compact digital camera to my film SLR gear, the Canon A620 caught my eye immediately. Good manual control, reasonably fast lens, tilt LCD, 7 megapixels, and a promised faster DIGIC chip, all ...

Pros: High resolution, sharp photos with pleasing colors, features, battery life, LCD
Cons: Flimsy, noise at ISO 400, uses 4 AA batteries, price

I wanted to check out the new 7 .1-Megapixel Canon PowerShot A620 ever since it was released. Once I saw that I could get it for only $324, I immediately ordered it. I also got the ...

Pros: Compact, light weight, lots of features, reliable, great picture quality, and huge resolution.
Cons: None so far...

It was my parent’s anniversary last week and after hours of searching my wife and I decided to give them this Canon PowerShot A620 digital camera, so they can send us pictures regularly. The lowest price I found for this camera right was ...

Pros: 7.1 MegaPixels, 4x zoom, many modes and features to choose from, ease of use
Cons: construction could use an upgrade, price (depends on the user)

The electronics store that I frequent recently upgraded to advertise this solid, albeit somewhat poorly constructed camera. Of course the construction issues I have with the Powershot are merely my opinion; however, I do feel they can be significant and ...

Pros: Amazing photo quality, 20 shooting modes, Great zoom, Sharp LCD screen, AVI Video Recording
Cons: Low battery life using regular alkaline batteries,

I purchased the Canon A620 to replace my older digital camera and let me say that I'm happy I upgraded. The Canon A620 has some great new features that my older camera had lacked and the picture quality is simply outstanding. Now I'm not going to claim ...

Pros: AA batteries, solid feel, picture quality, movable LCD, quick operation time, numerous modes
Cons: plastic tripod mount, no vibration reduction, low light quality, video quality

After nearly 2 years with this camera I almost hate to see it go. I purchased the camera in January 2006 on my second trip to China, for Chinese New Year. The first thing that amazed me was the camera¡¯s quality of shots of fireworks, there is a ...

Pros: Flip-out LCD screen, next-shot speed, ease of use at default settings.
Cons: No image stabilizer, maximum optical zoom of 4X, can't fit in a pocket.

Well, there are certainly some glowing reviews of this model on the site, and I must add to them. My mother has an Olympus D (the exact model number escapes me) which is fine, but a bit grainy at its regular settings. After reading many reviews in trade ...

Pros: Excellent Picture Quality Focussing good and relatively fast Automatic settings good Fast power-up
Cons: Indoor low light performance Flimsy door on USB connector

The immediate thing you notice with the Canon Powershot A620 is the power bulge with the 4 AA cells. This is going to be either something you like or immensely dislike. Personally I find this very convenient in terms of the shooting grip and a reassuring ...

Pros: Excellent quality shots, excellent battery life, movable viewfinder, excellent manual settings
Cons: size, weight, quick but not instant photo taking

I bought this to replace a Kodak digital camera which just wasn't taking reasonable shots, and my Canon A620 has been perfectly wonderful for more than a year. I'm here right now looking at prices to buy another one. I took my current one to Burning ...

Pros: Great pictures Easy to use basic features Lots of settings and possibility for additional lenses
Cons: not sure how well the lens cap and swinging display will last

We purchased this camera a little over a year ago. We were wanting a camera that was easy to use for vacations and such but we also wanted a camera we could "play with" when we got more into photography. The camera has been fairly easy to use, we ...

Pros: Photo quality, ease of use, good battery life.
Cons: Only thing I can think of is the price.

Review of Canon A620 camera This is my third trying out a digital camera, and this is the one to keep! I wanted to buy myself a camera for the many reasons we all want one. To capture the moments you want to remember. But before I start getting ...

Pros: SD/Multimedia Card, USB 2.0, DIGIC II image processor, "AA" standard batteries.
Cons: Digital, DC IN, and A/V OUT door is flimsy. No battery life indicator.

I really love this camera. I recently sold my Powershot A95 after owning it for 10 months and replaced it with this camera. I have grown very fond of Canon's CCD cameras. This is my second digital camera and I find that it is just as easy to use as the ...

Pros: Terrific macro and zoom functions. It has a 'quality feel' to it. Takes AA batteries.
Cons: USB connection cover has flimsy attachment; cover for the card seems only slightly better.

I needed to replace my old Canon A50 (which also takes great pictures but it's not so easy to find batteries for it and the last one I bought nearly caught fire.) The A620 uses AA's, so battery replacement is much easier! I wanted good macro (for ...

Pros: Very sophisticated complex instrument that is relatively easy to use.
Cons: Transport sound mars AVIs. Autofocus is an occasional problem. Eyepiece viewer accuracy only fair.

Having owned several Canons including excellent SLRs, this is easily the most feature-laden camera I have ever owned.This camera feels solid and a bit on the heavy side; but it is a giant step up from a pocket snap-shot camera.  One can ...
