Summary: Is this price a typo? Rating: 5 out of 5 Date: 2009-05-15 I have had this camera for about a year. I replaced my Canon Powershot A80 (which also is a gem). Not sure I will ever purchase a camera that does not have this tilt/flip/swivel screen. It is the best thing for taking photographs from angles you just can get down or up to. Love it!!

Summary: Great Overall Camera For Regular Use Rating: 5 out of 5 Date: 2009-05-05 I purchased this Canon A650 camera from a Costco that bundled a Canon printer on Dec 2007 right before my family's Christmas trip to Las Vegas. And I can definately say that it is1of the best purchase I had made because the camera and printer cost a fraction of what I see online even at this moment.
The images are sharp compare to any other compact digital camera that I used or seen in the past. The auto setting is great for normal usage. For the professionals, they have the manual and custom settings. The videos I took are crisp and does not take up much space on my 8GB memory card.
The only thing that I wish Canon added to this camera was being able to save in RAW format. The jpeg quality are great in almost all cases, however there are a few projects that I encounter each year that I wish I had a DSLR camera. I am in the process of looking around for a DSLR and keep the A650 for regular use. I think I can get a pretty great profit selling this camera used. A great investment if you are looking for a great and reliable camera and I am not ready to spend $1000 or more for the DSLR.

Summary: Canon PowerShot 12.1 MP Rating: 5 out of 5 Date: 2009-03-14 This camera takes excellent pictures. I am almost allly pleased with taking portraits and out door scenes. I do find that my hand tend to get into the way of the flash from time to time which makes a less distinct section of the picture. I soon learned to avoid this and to inform anyone I may ask to take a picture for me, to avoid this. I find the flash a bit inadiquate to deal with subject at moderate distances with dark backgrounds. however generally the camera is fine to carry around at places where you do not want to make the presence of a camera obvious. However, I am pleased with almost all of the pictures I take from time to time.

[........] I couldn't believe the price here!! Used it for many occasions however my favorite was our trip to the Grand Canyon, the camera was an ease to use and the pics came out so awesome!!

Summary: Great little camera, great price!! Rating: 5 out of 5 Date: 2009-01-03 I purchased this camera a couple months back through Amazon for $339. Great quality pictures and has a great video mode. I might hold off on paying $600 here for now. Or try another avenue. Whatever you do you will not be disappointed.
