Summary: Not Quite Ultra Compact but Great Pics
Comment: This isn't the slimmest or tiniest compact digital camera, but it's still easily pocketable (jacket, not shirt!) and for the price, produces great pics in a compact form. The screen is a good size and nice and bright and the extra bit on the zoom makes a difference - most of the competition stops at 3x. The colour choice allows a bit of personalisation.

There are an amazing number of presets, but you won't need most of them, and the most important ones are the most accessible. Anyone unused to digital cameras or who is a bit of a technophobe upgrading might find the menus a bit of a fiddle, but for most purposes, they won't be used much.

Pictures are bright and sharp with comparatively little distortion. Colours are bright and zingy - not quite true - but the bit of extra saturation makes them very attractive.

All in all, a bargain little camera.

Summary: Perfect - unbelievable at the price
Comment: I bought this as a present for my 6 year old who is always grabbing my Ixus. At this price I was a bit dubious, but with the Canon name you can't go wrong. I almost got the A460 which had fantastic reviews but then saw that this had been released.

In summary it is a supoerb item. My son is able to take perfect pictures, with a good zoom lens and MP count, and an excellent screen. It also has face recognition which works very well. Response and start up times are very good.

The camera is a bit more plastic than an Ixus but still looks like a quality item, which it definitely is. Video is very good, and the box includes all the cables you need to play back on a TV.

I recommend getting a charger and some rechargeable AA batteries, and then you have a very good camera for a beginner or moderate user.

Very impressed, and I still can't believe the Amazon price, especially when you think it's posted free. Get one now!


Editorial Reviews:

Canon is expanding its acclaimed series of PowerShot digital cameras with the introduction of a new, easy-to-use and feature-rich model: the PowerShot A470! The PowerShot A470 has a large LCD screen and a 7-megapixel CCD sensor so you can set up your shot perfectly. Its screen not only enables you to find the best viewing angle, it also allows you to activate a number of digital modes. The A470 is also ideal for first time camera users, because it comes with a number of handy scene modes and a 9-point Ai-AF face detection mode, as well as shadow adjustment technology so you can take frame-worthy photos even in low lighting conditions. The PowerShot A470 has a 3.4x optical zoom and a 12x combined zoom, meaning photographers of all levels can capture great shots, while its super macro mode lets you get up close to your subject. Explore your creative side with the lightweight and stylish PowerShot A470!
