    Bad Points: The screen failed after just 18 months - not worth repairing, and canon refuse to help.


    General comments: Was very disappointing that canon were not even able or prepared to tell me what was wrong unless I agreed to pay the repair charge of £72. I can buy a new a470 for just another £20, so no point in repairing the unit.

    The Canon PowerShot A430 is a very good camera for the price. The common AA batteries ensures you get power anywhere.

As a testament to the ruggedness of canon cameras, my A430 fell on cement on the lens when it was out. I thought it was not going to be able to fix it, but after a little disassembly, the lens snap ...

    I ordered the Canon PowerShot A430 for my 14 year old daughter before Christmas (she paid the £75). She has hardly been separated from it since.
    The camera is packed with features, the functions are fairly intuitive and it is quite easy to get started with the camera - although the more complex functions (such as stitch assist and colour swap) might need referral to the manual.
    We haven't used the Canon capture software on the PC so I can't comment on that.
    The 4x zoom compensates for ...

    The Canon PowerShot A430 is very easy to use and has a wide range of features. the 4 megapixels are quite disappointing and the impressive advanced features are actually quite hard to use considering this camera is and entry level low budget model. For the price the camera is excellent, but it could do with being a little more accessible to low-budget armatures.
