The new Canon Powershot A700 digital camera

byHoward_Creech Mar 31, 2006
132 Helpfuls 133 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Large 2.5" LCD screen, 6X optical zoom, full manual controls, and AA batteries
Cons Weak flash, Some corner softness, and minor chromatic aberration (purple fringing)
Recommended it? Yes

There are some very good reasons why Canon's A series digital cameras have been number one in U. S. sales for three years running. A series digicams provide consistently first-rate performance, superb ergonomics, incredible ease of use, and tough as nails durability - at amazingly reasonable... Read full review »

Good but not Great

bypvreditor Sep 30, 2006
39 Helpfuls 40 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Nice controls; great size; excellent focus; beautiful LCD screen; long battery life
Cons More digital noise than I expected.
Recommended it? Yes

I take pictures for both personal and professional use, and struggle with the need for portability versus taking the best possible pictures. The photos that I take professionally are published in magazines and are usually snapshots of people interacting with each other and touching various pieces... Read full review »

30D vs. 20D? Are the differences worth another purchase?

bysuemccartin Jul 1, 2007
15 Helpfuls 16 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Canon Digic II sensor, 5 fps mode, iso 3200, improved white logic
Cons Pricey? Not a huge upgrade over a 20D
Recommended it? Yes

My first canon dslr was the original Rebel also known as the 300D, for its time and considering what that camera cost, it was competent but it can't hold a candle to a 20D and even less so to a 30D. I shoot a lot of karate for my school, the 300D Rebel only has 3 fps which just isn't enough for... Read full review »

Impressions on the CANON EOS 30D : finally mature, but still expensive

byketelbinkus Mar 12, 2006
17 Helpfuls 18 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Many features and very low noise, APS-sized CMOS gives best result with reasonable priced...
Cons viewfinder a bit dark, 8 million pixels and APS-sized cmos is insufficient for...
Recommended it? Yes

Having used a 300D and a 10D, i hesitated a lot before getting hands on this camera.
I got it with a Canon f4.0-f5.6/17-85 EF-S IS zoom, found it in Sim Lim square in Singapore.
Improvements are not so important: the good things of the 20D are still there: very good image quality with its... Read full review »
