Good Points

Great pictures in a variety of situations, good accurate focusing, easy to use


Bad Points

Can be heavy on batteries if using the flash or changing zoom.
Using rechargeable and carrying spares reduces the problem.
The screen could be brighter, but the viewfinder partly compensates for this.


General Comments

Although the Canon PowerShot A710 camera has got some bad points they are relatively minor compared to the camera ' s main purpose of taking great pictures. I have had this camera for several months and I am still amazed at the high quality of the pictures that I have taken just on the automatic setting. The camera also has several shooting modes for specific situations and manual settings that has enabled me to try to be creative. The movie setting also works well for short movies with sound.
The image stabiliser is a definite benefit which has let me to take good photos that would not be possible with my previous camera.
When I bought this camera I was looking for a something that was flexible, versatile, easy to use and not too expensive. I think that I was fortunate when I chose this model. It may not be the best camera for beginners but for anyone else I would definitely recommend it.
