Canon PowerShot A510 Digital Camera - Compact and Cheap, But Flexible

bydkozin Aug 3, 2005
41 Helpfuls 42 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Excellent optics for low price and compact size, uses 2 AA batteries, features, 4x zoom
Cons Flash creates shadow in corner in Macro mode and overexposes unless you use ISO50/f8
Recommended it? Yes

A replacement for the last year's Canon A75, the 3.2-Megapixel Canon PowerShot A510 is currently available at rather low prices. I got mine for $161 after coupons including taxes and shipping at Dell. I also got the 4-Megapixel A520 to see the difference for only $20 more. Your mileage may vary... Read full review »

Pros The best camera out there- color, handling, flash, ease of use
Cons Price
Recommended it? Yes

I was shopping for the “BEST” of the current crop of small ultra compact cameras.  The ultra compact cameras can't compete with the larger cameras but I wanted one that could be taken in a pocket on a daily basis and still have pretty damn good pictures.
