The
Canon PowerShot A70 is a digital camera targeted
to beginner amateur photographers and its image
quality is comparable to other 3 megapixels resolution
digital cameras.
For this review, I used the following settings
as my preferred settings:
Shooting Mode: Program AE
Metering Mode: Evaluative
ISO:
Auto
Image
Size: 2048x1536 (Large)
Image
Quality: Superfine
White
Balance: Auto
All the pictures on this and the other pages (including
the navigation pictures at the top of each page)
have been taken by the PowerShot A70 for this
review. The pictures on this page provide a good
sample of what the PowerShot A70 is capable of
and I have provided the 800x600 version. Remember
that this version is of slightly lesser quality
than the original 2048x1536 version. Please open
and download only once to your hard drive -- and
save me some precious bandwidth. Thanks!
Clicking
on a picture version will display the 800x600
version in a separate window. Leave that separate
window up for all the other images will also
display in that same separate window.

A
Personal Word
The
Canon PowerShot A70 is very easy to use and produces
quality 3MP pictures in Program AE mode. I can't
see how Canon can improve on such a package except
perhaps by providing higher resolution (and in
a bigger size) for both the image sensor and the
LCD monitor. It's a beginner amateur photographer's
dream camera; an advanced amateur looking for
a compact digital camera will appreciate the exposure
flexibility it provides.
