 Good everyday November 28, 2008

I like the camera very much. Not as fast as I'd like it and the 2-AA batteries wear down quickly. Previous model took 4-AAs and the pictures were great so I stayed with the brand.
 Excellent camera November 28, 2008

This is my first digital camera and I am not sorry for the purchase. There are SO many features that I'm still using the default selections except that I did select the highest quality for the photos and it takes EXCELLENT photos!
I purchased a 4gb 133x card as the included 32mb would have only held about a dozen high quality images and there's no way it could have held the video's I've been taking. The fact it only comes with a 32mb standard card is no by no means any fault of the camera so no points lost there as some other cameras don't come with a card at all I've discovered in my search.
The fact that the camera came with extra goodies like the cables that some other brands try to sell you separately spoke good of Canon and it even came with good AA batteries, though I suspect I'll be replacing the next set with some Energizer Lithium AA's.
And a hint to any other new users: leave the display screen protector on and don't worry about finger smudges or scratches. :-) They sell those things all over Amazon and other stores but the camera comes with one in place and I have to wonder how many people throw them away only to buy one again later. :-)
Best As Can Be! November 27, 2008

Because I am a professional photographer, I know people like reading reviews they can understand. I'm going to make this as simple as can be...the Canon Powershot A560, in my opinion, is probably the best digital camera anyone could get. That's if you're a normal person that wants a really good digital camera. Professionals should stick to some of Canon's higher lever cameras that are more sophisticated. I say that the A560 is the best for many reasons. For one, it's price is as reasonable as can get. Another reason the A560 is the best is that I have probably dropped mine like 10 times already and the only harm the camera got was a few scratches here or there. Now a digital camera with this kind of durability is awesome. Other digital cameras end up being ruined after a couple of drops. First, a feature or two stops working. Before you know it, all your pictures are gone and the camera is busted. Hectic, isn't it? So, if you're hesitant in buying the Canon A560, YOU HAVE NO REASON TO BE! Go ahead and buy it, I'm sure you won't regret it!
 A good Camera November 26, 2008

This is the first digital camera I have owned and it has provided excellent snapshots and with a 4gb or 8gb memory card (not included) it's able to store more pictures than I need. This is a far more affordable way to have pictures than disposable cameras and I get to choose what to keep without developing costs.
Great Camera November 26, 2008

What a great camera. I can see why Consumer Reports Magazine rated it a " Best Buy ".
