 Great little camera January 6, 2009
Gordon C. Hart
I purchased this camera for my 86 year old mother after her film-type SLR gave up the ghost. She was able to use it immediately right out of the box with almost no instruction. The picture quality is excellent and the camera is versatile and quite easy to use. I would recommend the Power Shot A470 for anyone looking for a really good point and shoot camera. The layout of the controls and the easily understood menu make the camera a real delight to use.
 Easy to use for a child January 6, 2009
Grandma Kathy (Hershey, PA USA)
I bought this camera for my 7 year old granddaughter as a Christmas gift so she could take it along on our Disney vacation in the spring. She loved it - easy to use. She took so many pictures at Christmas that the batteries had to be replaced within 24 hrs. The pictures were easy to download and the quality of the photos was good - clear, nice color, no blurring. We were very pleased with the camera, especially for the reasonable price.
Great little Camera for a Younger Child January 6, 2009
Judy L. Cox (Ohio, USA)
We decided to purchase this camera for our 7.5 year old son for Christmas. We felt he was too old for the "kiddy" type cameras yet he wanted a digital camera to use. This was the perfect option.
He doesn't use it really often (we're still getting over the holiday busy-ness) but he's quick to grab it when he sees a nice photo opportunity - like tonight he got a shot of the dogs snuggling.
The camera is just his size. It's very easy to use. He's used other, pricier, point and shoot cameras so felt very comfortable grabbing this one up, turning it on and taking a picture. It is easy to learn.
Takes AA batteries - would have preferred rechargeable, but it's not a big deal for him. If he starts using the camera so much we are having an issue with batteries, we'll just use rechargeable AA's.
We purchased a little case for it for under $10... makes it easy to clip to a belt loop and protect the camera both.
Great camera for a great price January 4, 2009
Natalie Snyders (Illinois)
This is perfect camera for someone who is looking for an entry-level camera that is fairly small, lightweight, has a good battery life (2 AA's), travels well and takes quality pictures on a budget. I wish it had a wrist strap and a slightly faster shutter speed; other than that, it's not fancy, but it does the job quite well!
Great Camera for the price! January 3, 2009
Mali Glass Artist (Pennsylvania)
I bought this camera for my 8 year old daughter to use (she has taken great photos with it). It is a simple camera, with not a huge number of settings and great video capacity. I also ended using it a lot because it is so light weight and compact (can fit in a pocket). We are very happy with this camera and with good rechargeable batteries it has a nice battery life. A "1 G card" works well, you should buy one with the camera. I would recommend this camera.
