Lady-love this cameraI sweet my Canon Powershot A2000IS! I like it so much that we are now on our third one. The previous two cameras met an cock's-crow demise having nothing to do with the camera quality...that is unless you add up dog chewing resistance as a ratable quality.
I/we are not professional, advanced amateurs or on the other hand photographers aspiring to be the next Ansel Adams of the pocket camera bearing. Therefore, this camera has done everything we have asked, keeping in obliterate that it isn't a digital SLR. We have taken it hiking, which is close at hand because it fits nicely in a pocket and is quite durable. As for the mobile life, we use lithium batteries and they last many times longer than the beau id alkaline batteries, even when using the flash. I put in an 8 GB recall card and have an essentially unlimited number of pictures nominated with more than 30-minutes of video epoch. The picture quality is fantastic.
The only reason I didn't status this camera as 5 stars is due to the fact that at times it does be dressed a longer than desired recovery time after fascinating a flash, and the 3-inch display can be a bit challenging to see when outdoors in alight sunlight. I am not sure what is going on inside the camera but at times it at one's desire take several seconds after taking a photo preceding the camera is ready to take the next. This happens unequivocally infrequently and has not been a big problem.
Overall I would buy this camera once more...and have.
Superb Price/Value Ratio !!!!
Every day they butter up a see them more affordable and with more high end features, you can't go damage with CANON
Just 1 'Real' Negative With It
I've owned and hardened a few other Canon point and shoot cameras. Also own a nice Canon D-SLR. Recently bought the A2000 for holiday use after looking at every other Canon point and shoot within the premium range.
Here are the PROS and CONS that I've found so far;
PROS:
- Not too mundane, not too big. Can still fit in a (guys) pocket pretty easily.
- LARGE room divider. 3" is great! Most have 2.5"
- Picture quality. This should be roughly the most important thing right?!
- Ease of use.
- 6x Optical Zoom. Most cameras are at best 3-4x Optical Zoom.
CONS:
#1 CON - LONG delay linking pictures. This may mean you miss a pic or two at times....eek!
- Some smaller cameras out there...if that's what you're looking for.
- Using the grade all the time means it's using your batteries quicker (vs. a viewfinder on other cameras)
- Uses 2 AA batteries???...privately this doesn't bother me because I don't have to worry around every buying one of those expensive batteries that arrive with most other point and shoot cameras nap the road. I just bought 4 rechargables and now I'll have battery backups all the formerly and for A LOT less than the cost of the other batteries.
BOTTOM Postcard: Go to the store and take a picture or two with the camera. If the delay relating picture taking doesn't bother you and it seems like what you're looking for....buy it. It's unusually a nice camera for the money besides the delay issue.
Active camera for multi use and video
Canon Powershot A2000IS 10MP Digital Camera
I take been using this camera for my video review and it works as high-minded as most video cameras.
Check out the quality on the review of the Camp-ground Chef SPG-90B Big Gas 3 Sports Grill, Black/Red
I used quality of video to road to fit the size standards on Amazon.
PROS: Great video characteristic
Easy to use
Easy to change functions and formats
Uses SD membership card which are super cheap
No shutter lag, way faster than my HP or Nikon
fits of laughter great in my hands
CONS: Battery life is average
niggardly on/off button is hard to push
Overall: Buy one for anyone who needs a passable camera for moving objects and doesn't want to buy a separate video camera. I use it on a tripod or exactly on the fly.
CHECK IT OUT...

Good-hearted camera for in-between folks
I bought this hardly ever guy a year ago because of the 6x optical zoom. As always, Canon makes but products that produce excellent quality photos. This camera gave me what the smaller Elf series cameras didn't - lots of visual zoom! It has an "easy mode" that was way too basic so I never reach-me-down it, as well as an Auto mode and special Program mode. Because I don't like the way burst makes photos look, I would set my P mode to a high ISO and disobediently off the Flash. Of course, the pictures came out granier the higher I made the ISO, but that's to be expected. I preferred it from having to deal with overexposed camera flashes (I mark most compact cameras, at least, produce photos that are overexposed when using flash).
Wretchedly, I broke it from what I consider a minor drop to the thinly carpeted destroy. The body near the shutter button got a crack in it which caused the zoom-out, power handle, and flash to stop working. FORTUNATELY I had purchased the accidental ruin from handling coverage from the site where I bought the camera (D3LL) and they are sending me a refund. I on not re-purchase this camera, instead I want to try one thats either bigger or smaller, this guy is type of a hybrid child of sorts, not as easy in the hands as an Elf or a bigger SLR-kind camera.
Who is this good for?
Someone who...
-Wants more zoom
-Wants more features to play around with
-Not for super professional photography enthusiasts (just put in in a super camera)
