Canon PowerShot A470 7.1MP Digital Camera with 3.4x Optical Zoom (Gray): Customer Reviews & Product Details

i got this camera from my sister about 2 yrs ago for my 20th high school reunion. i worked like a charm. have had it ever since than until i tripped and broke it. it was a great camera and wish i never broke it. the only problem is that when you are outside it is hard to see the pitcher on the screen in the sun light.

I read a reviewer in PC world who said " My 3 year old son can take pictures with this cammera". He was right. I put in automatic mode, and concentrate soley on composition now. The camera works supriseingly well in very low light stuatuions, if the light is below a certin level, the flash automaticaly fires. I have only scrathed the surface of the capabilities of this cammera. AND it was only a few dollars over 100 $. It's only drawback?, I only get about 70 shots from duracel battiers, other brands give me less that 35 shots. Also the incuded memeory chip will only let you take 12 pictures, buy a 4 or 8 gigabyte card as soon as the cammera arives. Either should give more than 500 shots in memeory.

I really enjoy using my digital camera. It's very easy to use and transferring the pictures to my computer is also very easy and simple. Would highly recommend this product.

I liked this Canon PowerShot camera. I bought this camera based on the fabulous customers' reviews in Amazon.com. Recently I had to take some pictures in a house without any lights in a cloudy late afternoon. This camera gave me very clear pictures with its flash in this type of environment. As long as you position your camera towards the object and hold it steady, you will get a very sharp picture with the automatic flash even you could not see the target clearly with your eyes.

I used to have a Fuji FinePix S3000 I bought from a local store based on a salesperson's recommendation. This was a very stupid camera with a heavy and big body and gave shady pictures. The camera broke somehow last year. I will never buy Fuji camera again.

I had a analog-type Canon PowerShot camera before and I think I liked that old camera.

I would buy Canon PowerShot cameras again If necessary.

Super pocket size camera. Most desired features found on more expensive cameras. Handy, conenient to cary. Excellent value.
