Pros VERY fast, excellent 5X wide angle zoom, broad ISO range, dual memory media slots
Cons Camera locks while writing RAW images to card and complex operation
Recommended it? Yes

The new eight megapixel Olympus C8080WZ squares off very nicely against its competition from Nikon, Canon, Minolta, and Sony because Olympus' product development staff didn't just affix an 8 mega pixel CCD to an on hand platform. They started with an ergonomically exceptional new body and added a... Read full review »

Recommended it? Yes

Three months after Olympus release the C-8080 (8 mega pixel) digital camera, I was drooling to get my hands on it. I decided to sell my Olympus C-4000 Zoom and buy the C-8080. I got this Camera online after I found the cheapest vendor on epinions.com and saved about a hundred dollars on the total... Read full review »

Pros Much like the A520 that has been good to us the last couple of years.
Cons A bit larger body camera and small LED than other comparably priced cameras.
Recommended it? Yes

My wife and I purchased a Canon PowerShot A520 Digital Camera for her the spring before last.

The new one will be her family camera that we... Read full review »

Canon PowerShot A530 5-Megapixel Digital Camera - Compact and Inexpensive

bydkozin Mar 27, 2006
47 Helpfuls 48 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Uses 2 AA batteries, compact, 5MP, inexpensive, features, manual controls, image quality
Cons Slow flash recycle time
Recommended it? Yes

Previously, you could only get up to 4MP resolution in this format from Canon (Canon PowerShot A520)... Read full review »
