Summary: Love this camera so MUCH!!!
Review: My first experience with digital camera was with POWERSHOT A20. It was awesome experience, the camera was very easy to use and producing lots of nice pictures too with great color balance too. It was awesome. Then I found out about FINEPIX 2800, I gave my A20 to brother.My second camera was FUJIFILM Finepix 2800 camera. This is a nice camera but it's just a bit difference. The one thing I don't like is the LCD everywhere. The picture rather nice and the 6X real zoom, no digital zoom available with this camera. I was a little bit dissapointed when I got this camera. Then after a couple of weeks ago, I found out that CANON came up with new POWERSHOT A40 and I just rushed to the nearby electronic store and just bought the camera. The result, again, just like I've already expected. Just as nice as the A20 model. The model just add better focusing just like the one that you can get from SLR camera like REBEL 2000 SLR. It also has about 10 different effects (black & white, sepia, vivid, tungsten, and more.....) and you can even change the setting of the white balance, if you ever wanted. It uses AA batteries, not the special one. Make sure that you put it in AUTO mode so you can get everything just as easy as a snapshot camera. THis is an excellent camera...OK guys, go get this one.......

Summary: Great camera!
Review: I love this camera! I could run down all the features individually and tell you how great they are, but instead I will keep it short and sweet and say that the camera is easy to use, takes beautiful photos, and is small and light enough to take everywhere. It comes with all the cables you need to upload to your computer directly and show your photos on a TV. It even comes with editing software, 4 AA batteries to get you started, and an 8 MB memory card. I suggest you buy a 32 MB card or better. I got a 256 MB card myself, which holds 400 pictures at max resolution. The only possible caveat is that it eats batteries quickly. Then again, I use it constantly, so the high battery consumption may be due to my heavy use and not just a hungriness on the camera's part...

Summary: Great... yet not great.
Review: We received the camera right in time for my sister's wedding. Mother asked me to look at it and figure it out, which I was more than pleased to do. It was an excellent camera, and I was impressed with all of the features provided. Clarity was exceptional, ease-of use phenomenal, and it was a comfortable camera to use. Was is the key word. Less than a half an hour into testing it, something happened. The view suddenly became extremely blurry and quite ugly. I worked it over for another hour and a half, trying to figure out what happened. None of the manuals would help, and I couldn't find anything online. We had to send it back and use a disposable for my sister's wedding. We ordered another digital camera, but we've found that we don't like it as much and are currently trying to find another Powershot A40....

Summary: Great Value
Review: Have been into digital photography for a couple of years. This is my third camera and by far the best. Picture quality is outstanding and the movie mode is a nice lanyap. I have yet to have to enhance a picture with editing software and this was a must with the other cameras I've owned.

Summary: Look No Further
Review: I recently bought 4 megapixel Kodak DX4900 that last 1 day before ti broke. I then opted to go with Canon, and decided that I only needed a 2 mega pixel device. I went with the canon A40. Unlike the Kodak, I have yet to see a blurry picture with this camera - its focus is incredible. At 2 megapixels, the pictures are still bigger than my 17" monitor screen and absolutely crystal clear. These look like regular photos (big ones). The video mode is terrific (you wont watch it on tv or anything but for a small quicktime video I must say they are incredibly clear and the sound is wonderful). This camera can be a simple point and shoot camera, or there are several modes that let you have total control over your picture quality - something a lot of cameras at this price lack. Hats off to Canon for just a truly wonderful camera. You will not go wrong with the Canon A40!

Summary: Beware: Lens Motor Life Span Is Short
Review: The Canon A40 is simple to operate and takes decent images with its 2 megapixel/3x zoom features. It's compatible with a Macintosh OS/X and the digital imaging edit software is easy to use. After six months, the lens jammed and the camera did not function properly. I mailed the camera back to Canon for repair and less than six months later, the lens broke again while I was changing batteries. I googled the Canon A40 and learned that other consumers have experienced the same lens jam problem with their Canon A40. If you buy it, be sure to read the warranty details and have the 800-number ready to call. Good luck.

Summary: One of the coolest tech toys I ever purchased
Review: Since purchasing this camera, film has become a thing of the past for us, something relegated to the realm of VCRs and record players. It's fantastically easy to use, and 2MP is more than enough for users interested in printing out nice 5x7 shots (provided that you're shooting at high resolution). In the 18 months I've owned the camera, I've taken almost 2,000 pics, and have them all neatly organized on my computer and CDs.
In summary, this is hands down a fantastic product.

Summary: Excellent Picture Quality - Great for Average User
Review: I searched reviews information and asked tons of ?'s before making my decision to purchase this camera. And I am so happy to own it. I am not an expert at digital or computer stuff and this camera was so easy to use. I have replaced my 35mm & 110 camera with this camera. I purchased some rechargeable batteries and a ac adapter & it has been great! Very pleased! I'm not one for reading instructions and I just read enough to operate, If I were to sit down and read the rest I'd be able to do even more with my camera. This is the best camera out there! Originally I was going to purchase the A20, but found that it was going to be discontinued so I went with it's replacement (and I love it!). I sell a bit on ebay and this is a great easy to use camera that takes super pictures! If your planning to purchase I'd purchase this camera or one of it's newer ones for better picture (I'm sure the newer ones of this brand are even better - but they will stick to the basics and keep it easy to use). I paid more than what it's going for now, but that's technology for you. Anyways, I rate 5 star due to easy use, small camera (can take to party's and such), and it's a great replacement (to get rid of those camera's that use film). I have saved tons of money just on not buying film!
