- Great camera!
The only reason it received a 4-star from me is... this camera needs more zoom! Other than that, I have been really pleased. It's a perfect point and shoot and I'm very certain it's easier to use for most people (I'm technologically challenged). I have taken this camera so many different places and taken great pictures.

- Great camera.
This is a great little camera. I got this for Christmas over two years ago to replace my Polaroid i832, and this camera is by far superior. It takes great photos indoors and out, and is my ideal travel companion. :P
I wish that I could get the right settings for it to not to blur, and at times shutter speed can be a little slow, but overall, it takes pictures with a great quality.

- It does more than just getting the job done.
The Canon PowerShot A560 is definitely on the higher end of point-and-shoot cameras. I have been using this model for over a year now and it does not displease. I have compared this aside many other similar and popular brands including Kodak and Nikon. The camera is better not only in quality but in other things such as features, flexibility, and compatibility. ZoomBrowserEX, the program that comes with the camera is a neat, simple-to-use program. You can also step it up a level and use it for more ... Read More
