    Good Points: Great camera you cant beat a canon.

    Bad Points: Poor screen quality, drains batteries even rechargeable very fast, sometimes it doesn't work at all, flickering pictures and blank screen(I own two of these and both have same problem) I don't like taking pics in cold weather either.

    General comments: The Canon A60 is excellent with a powerful flash. Better than the 9 mp fuji I just bought. You get loads of orbs and ghostly mists on the photos which is cool.Good printing too, when you get it done in a photo shop. I just wish I could afford a better one!

    I've had a Canon A60 since January 2005 and I have to say, 4000+ pictures later with it I am still very impressed with this camera. The macros are great! The night shots are great! The Landscape shots are great! Even the people (when not moving) are great! This camera is worth every penny and it rivals some 5mp cameras like Kodak's easyshare. The pictures are just fantastic and the 2 MP is more then enough if you do prints no larger then 8X10. I taken pictures of everything with th ...

    I got a Canon PowerShot A60 for £100 a few months back. My reason for picking it was that I wanted to be able to experiment with different aperture, shutter settings etc. and this was the only model in my price range that supported this. I am a beginner photographer and this camera has been a great tool with which to experiment. Some of my friends have 3MP res. cameras, and the prints from my camera compare well, although I wouldn't risk going to larger than normal snapshot size. On the ...

    Used the Canon PowerShot A60 for about 3 weeks, then gave up. Not a very smart investment to make. Always needed to have extra batteries with me. Big red-eye problems when using flash. Hope that Canon solved these problems with newer models.

    I own the Canon PowerShot A 60, ever since I couldn't find one at my nearest, camera retail store last year when it was just arriving in stores, till I went to my local dept. store, target here in NJ where I'm from and bought it, boy what a price change was $249- when it was a new digital from Canon themselves.. now almost a year later it droped to $149... and some places cheaper but I had other digital cameras in the past, I've had a Kodak, a Panasonic, which if you're into photography, or came ...

    I just bought this Canon PowerShot A 60 Digital Camera a week ago so I probably still haven't learned all there is to this camera. But so far, I love it. It does take 4 batteries so it is heavy but when it comes back to the pictures taken, it's all worth it. Alot of features to use. My favourite being the MACRO feature. I've taken great quality shots to the point where the camera lens was touching the object. It's quite complicated and hard to understand at first but that just means that there a ...

    This Canon PowerShot A 60 is my first digital camera, i had some experience with Olympus C-120 (also 2Mpix), but this is totaly different quality of pictures (much better). There are also many many usefull functions to setup this camera. Good connectin to computer, good programs (panoramic pictures are very easy to made). Original batteries (AA-4pcs.) holded for about 250-300 pics. Now i bought rechargable, and i am even happier :). I had many different options to buy also some other cameras... ...
