Was great, but then E18........2007-07-31

My wife and I were very happy with our Powershot A520 for the year and a half that we had it. However, the camera died with an E18 error during our friend's wedding, and it has not worked since. A quick web search for "Canon E18" or even "E18" will show you that this is a common error (with a number of different Canon models). We have never dropped it or abused it in any way, and it has spent most of its life in its protective case. While the camera seemed to be great before the moment it died, I would not buy this camera again. Do not get this camera if you don't want to have to replace it in 18 months like so many other users.

Still Working After All These Years.......2007-07-09

This camera has worked like a dream since I purchased it a couple of years ago. The picture quality is unequaled in its class, and the battery life is quite long when using lithium batteries. In fact, I have been able to take many professional-looking photos and order enlargements up to 8x10 without any pixels appearing. At the current "used" prices, this camera is a steal.

It's hard to find anything negative to say about the Canon Powershot A520: I did crack the LCD screen, but was able to replace it myself by ordering a new screen directly from Canon. Compared to more recent cameras, this one is a little bulky--it won't fit in your jean pockets, but will fit easily into your coat pocket or purse.

low quality.......2007-06-26

I purchased this camera as an upgrade to my A70. In the year after I purchased it I had to return it 3 times for warranty service because of the stuck lens cover reported all to often here. I was informed by the repair shop that by using the camera outdoors I was probably getting dust particles stuck in the lens cover. For $260 I'd expect more than just taking birthday photos. Shortly after the one year warranty expired the camera stopped functioning all together (I suspect the CCD died) and it is now a paperweight.

I recently replaced it with a Panasonic Lumix DMC-LZ7S 7.2MP Digital Camera with 6x Image Stabilized Zoom (Silver) which I'm very happy with.

lens problem and screen.......2007-06-18

I paid $279 brand new and after 6 months my lens stop working, i send the camera to cannon for rapairs. After a year the screen just goes black and it happens almost all the time. I will not recommend******************

Anonomous & Clueless!.......2007-06-03

THIS IS WRITTEN FOR CLUELESS PHOTOG DUMMIES LIKE ME- IF YOU ARE NOT CLUELESS, SKIP THIS REVIEW!

Got this camera last year, knowing only a few of the most basic features to look for, & having satisfied those criteria, chose based upon availability, price, comfort/convenience (lightweight, has a wrist strap, & felt good to handle for use in taking pictures of my child. I had no idea it was such a highly rated/high tech/quality camera! The bottom line is, this is an absolutely FABULOUS, easy to use, dummy can-do camera! BTW, the features I knew to look for were:

1) Decent MP resolution (ie 3 or above, which just isn't an issue anymore- any/all 'real' cameras have at least 3 MP resolution, this one has 4. In laymen's terms this means how many tiny grains per area, or how 'sharp' the photo quality will be- allowing for larger pictures overall to be nice & sharp, vs. photographed subjects/objects 'dulled' at the edges).

2) OPTICAL zoom resolution, at least 3 or 4X. This Canan PowerShot A520 has $X OPTICAL zoom. Again, in laymen's terms, this means an actual zoom lens that you can adust from where your'e standing in relation to the subject of the picture your'e taking. So you can zoom right in on that mean eating lion, & make it look like your'e in the cage with him at the zoo. Alternatively, you can zoom out, and take a more panoramic (larger range) photo. Digital zoom resolution, on the other hand, simply means that the camera's software zooms in- it's really practically a meaningless term- of course a digital camera has digital zoom! You really want to make sure you have OPTICAL zoom. Decent cameras have both. Cheap/undesireable camera's have ONLY digital zoom.

3) Battery type- some accept only hard to find/expensive to replace batteries (Sony is guilty & known for this- apparently thinking the Sony name can carry them to additional profits by requiring only Sony-specific batteries, counting on clueless people like me who just unquestioningly have trusted the Sony name over the years... No more!) This Canon PowerShot accepts readily available non-name rechargeables, and/or drugstore AA's. Battery power is decently long lasting, DEFINITELY bring along spare/back-ups for any important event, or for a trip. (Or just bring your second set of rechargeables, camera takes 2, 4 fit in a standard re-charger). I'm realizing that after a year, my rechargeables have about outlived their re-chargeable capacity, & I just need to purchase a replacement: ~10-$20. NBD for a year's worth of picture taking!

3) Ease of software installation & use: Self explanatory. Couldn't be simpler! Easy to initially load camera software & plug in using USB port (you need to make sure your'e using a decent/recent PC- if it's more than a few years old (this means 2 or 3 years at most!), your Desktop is outdated, and you'll likely have compatibility problems- this means you'll spend hours becoming increasingly frustrated because your'e too cheap to buy a decent, entry level PC, & your camera will not work with your computer. Provided your PC & your camera are compatible (if unsure, call Canon before buying, or before opening packaging, to ask!), it's SO easy to install software/configure camera, take & upload pictures, learn to modify them in all sorts of ways to improve them, etc., easy to attach them as e-mail attachments &/or send photo's independantly, etc. This is really a 4 year college degree in itself. But you can easily learn & use the basics, such as red-eye elimination, cropping photo's, etc. If you do run into software/useability problems, just call Canon right away for technical assist. (Make sure you call RIGHT away- after the return period has elapsed, & later the warranty period, they're less & less desireous of helping you). This has a zillion photo settings, including a highlighted 'Auto' selection- Hello! Works great!

4) Lightweight, small (fits in purse), wrist strap, easy to carry with you without severely weighing you down. Feels 'right' in the hand to snap photo's.

5) GREAT sized screen on back for both original picture taking- can use either actual eye-view hole, OR the digital screen, to see what your'e photographing. ALSO needless to say, this screen is FABULOUS for playback/review. You can set it a gazillion different speeds, as well as other options- I just left it at the factory setting, works great!

6) THIS AMAZING LITTLE CAMERA EVEN HAS BRIEF 'MOVIE MODE'! You can take up to 3 minutes of sound enhanced movies-my daughter LUVS this feature! (It's a power hog though, to use this function). Works great! Camera itself has limited memory capacity, and a card slot for insertion of a 512 MB (or up to 1G? Unknown?) for dramatically increased memory capacity- translation- you can take & store a lot of pic's, using a memory card (VERY readily available & inexpensive), before the card is full, & then you have to stop, upload those stored pics on your PC, clear ('reformat') the memory card, & start anew. EASILY delete, organize, file, & store photo's on your PC w/ the software provided.

7) Lastly, even the complete dummy (me) can turn out (PRINT on professional, glossy, photograph/cardstock weight paper) directly from your printer attached to your PC. No need to have a matching 'Canon' printer, although they're good too- I have just an inexpensive HP printer/copier/scanner (digital, not laser), it produces incredible quality, color saturated, high resolution photo's! (Tip- while your'e learning, set the printer setting to 'fast draft'- this will use dramatically less ink & produce a much less color saturated picture, while your'e getting the hang of it. Once your'e ready, change the printer setting to a higher level, & you'll get a more colorful, professional looking photo.) I've found that of the 3 printer settings, using the highest level just plain pours out the ink, wastes ink, saturates paper, smears before drying, etc. So I just use the middle setting.

I'm tired now, this camera is FABULOUS beyond my expectations! I recommend without hesitation!

Nice Addition for Die Hard NFL Fans.......2005-07-07

These are simply wonderful controllers; from the feel of the controller in your hands to the great logos of your favorite teams. The extra long cable and added vibration are appreciated features. Mad Catz has moved the Start, Select and Mode buttons to the top and bottom of the controller. The Start and Select buttons are located between the shoulder buttons while the Mode button is directly opposite on the bottom. The D-Pad can be a little sensitive but nothing you can't get used to. Again, a good feeling quality controller. For all of us NFL junkies who are proud to show our teams colors, well worth the extra buck or two. For the casual fan it's just a controller and might not be worth the extra investment.
