Canon PowerShot A720 IS review

Canon is sticking to what works in its PowerShot A720 IS. Mostly similar to its older A710 IS sibling, it strikes a less hefty pose, but more importantly, this camera improves in the areas of face detection and autoexposure. With a complement of manual exposure controls, old is made new again Read more

Canon Digital IXUS 900 Ti review

Stylish without being inconvenient or awkward, the 10-megapixel Canon Digital IXUS 900 Ti is just the right size to fit into a jacket pocket. It produces very solid photos with nicely saturated colours. But while it's heavy on style, it's pretty light on features that its siblings offer Read more

Canon PowerShot A630 review

Canon's PowerShot A630 is an 8-megapixel version of its older sibling, the 10-megapixel A640, with an identical design. It's not a great shooter in low light, but otherwise it performs well for its class, with photographer-friendly manual settings and colourful, crisp images. If you're after a solid all-round point-and-shoot, you won't be disappointed Read more

Canon PowerShot A640 review

With lots of manual settings and a reasonably low price tag, Canon's PowerShot A640 looks appealing. Though it lacks the flexibility of higher-end cameras and the stylish portability of more compact shooters, the 10-megapixel A640 is a smart, fully featured camera with some surprising benefits -- like a fold-out LCD Read more

Canon PowerShot A650 IS review

The Canon PowerShot A650 IS proves that you don't need to invest in a dSLR to get manual options and large, detailed pictures. Featuring 12 megapixels and a range of shooting modes, the A650 IS gives you a great opportunity to control your images than most compact cameras Read more

Canon PowerShot A470 review

Solid budget models are becoming less expensive and offering better performance -- the Canon PowerShot A470 is one of the best examples of this trend. It isn't the prettiest camera available and it doesn't have any flashy features, but for the price, it's fast and it produces surprisingly good pictures Read more

Canon PowerShot A530 review

Though the A530 is a modest 5-megapixel step down from its 6-megapixel sibling, the A540, it still has almost all of the same handy features and produces very pretty images in well-lit environments. Unfortunately, it lacks the zippy performance and large LCD that help elevate the A540 above the crowd Read more
