Summary: Excellent choice
Review: I purchased this camera on a recent trip to Korea and took hundreds of pictures. One of my friends accompanying me on this trip bought one shortly afterwards and another bought one upon our return to the US because they were so impressed. Great camera for the money and for what I use it for. It is nice and compact but not overly so. The controls are easy to use and understand with very little familiarization needed. This camera has many more options than most consumers will ever use, but for those of you who want to be creative, this definitely allows for it. I particularly like the ability to "stitch" a panoramic scene together. The packaged software does a great job of this and is extremely user friendly.This came with a 16MB CF card which is kind of useless I think. I bought a 256MB CF card at the same time I bought the camera and have been using it. We took a short vacation and I was able to take several video clips and almost two hundred photos without downloading. Most of these were at the highest resolution so I would recommend a higher capacity CF card. I also use the rechargeable NMh batteries instead of alkalines. I get more time out of these and are shorter in the long term than replacing alkalines all of the time. So far I am very, very pleased with this product and would recommend it to anyone. My friend who also bought this owns a top of the line EOS digital SLR that cost many $$$$ more and is very pleased and satisfied with this. It takes great photos yet doesn't cost so much that your afraid to take it out and use it.

Summary: really good
Review: I already own the a60 canon digital camera, and I can tell, it is the best deal for that price. Besides it's the only one I know (around that budget) that allow to synchronize the flash. I'm a happy owner!!!

Summary: The best of the bunch
Review: Canon has caught all of the competition off guard by introducing the A60 with a virtually identical feature set as its high line G-series cameras but at a fraction of the cost. Use the A60 for 10-minutes and any other camera in its price range will simply appear ordinary. Here is a guarantee: Nikon, Olympus, and others will shortly scramble to introduce low-cost cameras with the same fully-manual feature set as the A60. How well does it work? I've owned mine for over a month and have nothing but excellent results. My previous digicam (a Canon S10) was very good, but the A60 produces richer color photos and allows me to gain control over the critical features of the camera for special shooting conditions. Most folks don't realize that 2-megapixel is a sweet-spot in digital camera performance: it's the perfect resolution for printing up to 8x10 and the file sizes are small enough to allow rapid shooting without waiting for images to write to the Compactflash card. And the Canon lens is superb. Never underestimate the quality of the lens to make your photos great. There are plenty of higher megapixel cameras with so-so lenses that produce poor photos in comparison to a lower megapixel model with quality optics. Try the A60 and you'll keep it. Of course, you can wait a few months for all the other manufacturers to introduce their full-featured low-cost cameras, but why reward them for napping? Choose the A60 as a way of thanking Canon for being the first to give us pro-sumer features at an entry-level price.

Summary: Poor customer service from Canon
Review: I purchased this camera in June 2003. It worked fine for about a month, then one day, no images showed on the LCD, nor were recorded on the CF card. Sent it to Canon for service, it took 6 weeks to get it back. Now, 2 weeks later, the same problem has resurfaced. A GREAT camera when it works, but the quality and service are VERY POOR. Canon now tells me to send it back, they will repair it again. Maybe I will have a working camera for the Christmas holidays, what do you think?

Summary: This is a GREAT camera!
Review: I bought this camera a few weeks ago and I think it is one of the BEST purchases I have ever made! It is a great price for all you get and it takes GREAT pictures. It is very easy to learn how to opperate. It takes little movies, which are great. I have plugged it into the tv(with the connectors that COME WITH IT) to show friends and family pictures on the tv. My fil just went on a hunting trip to Canada and took it with him and he took GREAT pictures and he has NO clue about digital anything! LOL! It is SO nice to take pictures and see them and either keep them or get rid of them and develop only the ones you want. If you want a great camera for a great price this is it!! GREAT BUY!

Summary: Awesome Camera
Review: This has to be the COOLEST CAMERA EVER! I was looking at a good quality digital camera and easy to grip. I started searching and researching cameras by looking at brands like Nikon, Cannon, Olympus, and Kodak. I needed a camera to take up snowboarding with me to capture so great snowboarding pictures. Then one day I stumbled across the Canon Powershot A60. I read some reviews and checked out the features. It had 3x optical zoom which was a big thing I was looking for and movie mode which can be up to 3 minutes! Eventually I bought the camera and some rechargable batteries since it uses batteries up pretty fast. This camera is the easiest camera to use especially if you are a begginer like me. I highly recomend this camera to anyone looking for a good high quality easy to use camera.

Summary: Canon PowerShot A60 2MP Digital Camera with 3x Optical Zoom
Review: I bought this camera a few months ago, and I am REALLY happy with it. It has lots of features for a cheap and compact camera, and so far, there have been no problems with it at all! I recently took it on a vacation with me for 2 weeks, and with a battery charger, a 128 MB CF card, and the camera, I was taking pictures the whole time. If you are planning to take pictures for fun, this is one of the best cameras out there, but if you want to use it professionally, you might be a little better off with a camera with more megapixels.

Review: i did a couple of days of research for a digi cam. i'm not a pro photographer or anything so i didnt know all the intricacies of buying a snazzy digi cam... i just wanted something smart, cute, and simple, that would be easy to carry around with me. i wanted to buy the powereshot A 70. i couldnt get a hold of it....sold out apparently , at that time. so i bought the A 60. my second choice. i have been using it regularly for over a month..i heard that the batteries (AA alkaline ones) die out in minutes.well, i have taken 100s of pics, and mine are still goin strong! even though i did buy rechargeable Ni-Metal ion ones too, i havnt used them yet. The trick i think is not to let your camera run for too long if youre not using it. the LCD screen takes up all the energy.... it comes with a 16 MB memory card, which may be a pain if you cant upload your pictures every day...think of buying a bigger card (especially if you wanna take little movie clippets)....this camera is wonderful....for the price , its a great deal! has both optical and digi zoom (which you wont get in very many cameras in this price range)....all i can say is that i get great pictures! i love it!

Summary: Plenty of functions for the price.
Review: I've been having this camera for the last one month & i'm quite happy with the image quality. ONE MAJOR COMPLAIN --> I DID'NT FIND THE USB CABLE IN THE PACKAGE. I wrote to amazon and they gave me the contact details of canon. However since i was in a hurry to download the images i bought a CF reader. Apart from this the camera works fine.....no dreaded 'E18' error yet!.
If u want to get the best out of this camera then i suggest u read the manual and explore all the various functions however I got the best pictures in the auto mode. The metalic frame makes the cam look sturdy. The huge battery compartment (4 AA) works as a perfect grip for the cam however the 'zooming' lever could have been better off on the rear side. The 'stitching' feature is also great if you are shooting a panaromic shot. All-in-All this is an ideal digital camera for any amateur photographer who is just getting into the finer points of digital Photography.

Summary: 1st digital camera - its ok , not great
Review: Purchased camera in December, took pictures at my daughter's wedding, birthdays, trip to NY state, Niagra Falls and various outdoor scenes with waterfalls, scenic views, etc.. Used most of the various camera modes. It takes excellant outdoor scenic/ panoramic views in bright and low light conditions. Indoor photo's so-so, red eye reduction does not appear to work, wedding pictures were a disappointment because of this. Viewfinder is not very accurate, pictures tend to have much larger field of view than what appears in viewfinder, especially at top of picture, causes difficulty composing picture. Zoom mechanism is not very smooth, somewhat jerky & diffciult to get just the right composition.
