Rating: Summary: Lousy customer service Review: Had this camera for two months then got the infamous "E18" error. Canon refused to honor the warranty and charged me [money amount]to fix it.This error is wide spread and well documented on many web sites. Canon said it my fault. Too bad, we liked the camera, but we will NEVER BUY ANOTHER CANON PRODUCT.
Rating: Summary: Excellent Product Review: This is an excellent piece in 2MP category. Main featrues include the 12 shooting modes and connection to TV (Good feature to explore the phots taken when you dont have a PC). the Movie feature is more than enough to serve the common and simple use.
Rating: Summary: Great camera from the price... Review: I bought this camera to take on my vacation. Initially I was going to buy the 3MP A70 but when that one wasn't going to arrive in time I went with the 2MP A60. The A60 is a great little camera with better than expected results. I use it at it's maximum resolution and it's worked fabulous. Images come out sharp, better than my friend's SLR photos. Color quality and contrast seem to depend on where you have the prints 'developed'. I have two sets of the same images that were done by different places and they look almost like different photos. The camera works great in most lights (from bright sunlight to restaurant dim) and when I enlarged them the images did not get grainy at all. Plus there's that added bonus of deleting anything you don't like. I think my developer nearly had a heart attack when I told him I wanted all 135 images b/c I had already deleted the garbage. The camera also will not take an out of focus image... it either requires you to zoom out or to move a few steps. This can be a pain but it keeps you from getting blurry images. Even action shots come out sharp. The LCD screen is too small and in bright light (I was on a beach) it's totally useless. Plus it deceptively makes your image seem farther away than it really is...a nice surprise when you get your prints back and they're MUCH closer. The only problem that -really- bothered me (which is why I give it 4 of 5 stars) was that there is a delay (enough for someone to walk in your frame or your subject to move) between when you press the shutter and when the camera actually captures the image. Not a problem if you're taking photos of still things but can be a really issue when you're taking active shots. One recommendation is to buy a larger compact flash than what's included with the camera, especially if you're like me and use the highest resolution. I bought two 128MB Viking cards (1 was a back up) and have had no problems and LOTS of storage space (I think 1 card would give around 200 images). It's well worth the extra money.
Rating: Summary: Excellent Value Review: This little guy is a tough camera with a low price! I've read a lot of reviews about people worrying about the plastic battery door seeming flimsy. It may "seem" flimsy, but it works great and lasted through many, many, many battery changes on my end without a single hint of becoming a future problem. The Goods -Excellent photo quality. I've owned several digital cameras and this one by far has the best image quality. -Low price. I think it's the best camera on the market under $300! -Great software, easy to install and use! -Great battery power! The Not So Good -Video output is not the greatest. Diehard video freaks will want a video cam instead. -Display could be a tad larger. -Accessories are pricey! Overall, I'd highly recommend this camera. The display is bright, crisp and clear and so are the photos. What more could you ask for?
Rating: Summary: Great Buy Review: I bought a Canon A60 in stores almost a week ago. I am extremely satisfied with my purchase. I think that it is a very good buy for the price, looks great, and is loaded with features. Only things I dont like about it is how the LCD screen is hard to see under bright sun, and you dont get rechargable batteries with teh camera. I suggest buying rechargables to save yourself money in the long run and i also purchased a carrying case to prevent scratching or other minor damages. The camera comes with a 16mb card which is sufficicent for everyday use for most people. I highly recommend this camera for the average-joe who wants to own a good, cheap digital camera taht is stylish as well as functional
Rating: Summary: Great Easy to Use Camera Review: This was our first digital camera and I couldn't be happier. The camera is small enough and light weight enough to fit in my pocket and was easy to use right out of the box. I was taking pictures and emailing them the first day I received the camera. Once I installed the program onto my computer all I have to do is hook the camera up and the pictures are sent to my computer. The family loved viewing the pictures we took when I hooked the camera up to the T.V. The print quality is great and I would recommend this camera to anyone. A great camera for a great price.
Rating: Summary: Fun camera Review: This is my first still digital camera. It was easy to operate straight out of the box. You will need a bigger flash card -- the 16 mb that comes with it holds about 34 pictures and then you have to download or delete. It takes about 1-2 seconds to process the picture so you end up telling people-- don't move! and I'm hoping that changes when I put the bigger flashcard in. It also uses AA batteries--fast!!! But the pictures are of great quality, it's lots of fun e-mailing them, and it's a very sturdy little camera. I am very satisfied.
Rating: Summary: Bought 2 for my european traveling children Review: To simplify my european vacation with my 12 and 10 year old daughters, I purchased TWO of the A60s, 256K CF cards, and never heard a complaint the whole time! Their photos were awesome, and not much lesser quality than my G3. Bright LCD, and good DiGiC focus. I recommend neck-length straps (Ritz Camera), but otherwise, over 450 photos were taken, with only one set of battery replacements each. 2100 MiAh NiH batteries didn't hold as long as I had hoped, and in general, felt the conventional batteries were fine. Photo color, durability, and ergonomics were great. Remember, these were kids!
Rating: Summary: canon power shot a60 digital camera Review: This camera is my first digital camera. Very easy to operate, and the pictures are excellent quality. The only drawback to this camera is the shiny mount around the screen. This causes a glare in the sunlight. For the price, this camera is a good choice.
Rating: Summary: amazing! Review: This camera is as good as I could have possibly hoped for for the price. Everything about the camera is wonderful. The battery life is kind of short, or at least the battery life of the batteries that came with the camera is. They ran out after 2 days, but the batteries I replaced them with are still going strong after twice that long. The image quality is great for snapshots and even amateur art photos, especially if you don't have the money for an a70 or another 3mp camera. My two favorite features are the macro and the short films.
