What Customers Say About Canon PowerShot A650IS 12.1MP Digital Camera with 6x Optical Image Stabilized Zoom:

WTH. Pros: Amazing picture quality; uses AA batteries for convenience (just use rechargeable AAs like I do); very sturdy and good build quality; etc.Cons: Bulky and clunky; somewhat heavy; slow performance in some aspects; etc.P.S. As of this review, the prices on here are from $700-800 (including Amazon's price). I don't get it. I bought this camera new last year for about half of those prices.
Not sure I will ever buy a camera that does not have this tilt/flip/swivel screen. I've had this camera for about a year. I replaced my Canon Powershot A80 (which also is a gem). It is the best thing for taking photographs from angles you just can get down or up to. Love it.
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. I think I can get a pretty good profit selling this camera used. The videos I took are very crisp and does not take up much space on my 8GB memory card.
The images are very sharp compare to any other compact digital camera that I used or seen in the past. The jpeg quality are very good in most cases, but there are a few projects that I encounter each year that I wish I had a DSLR camera. And I can definately say that it is one of the best purchase I had made because the camera and printer cost a fraction of what I see online even at this moment.
The only thing that I wish Canon added to this camera was being able to save in RAW format. The auto setting is good for normal usage. For the professionals, they have the manual and custom settings.
I am in the process of looking around for a DSLR and keep the A650 for regular use. A great investment if you are looking for a great and reliable camera and am not ready to spend $1000 or more for the DSLR.
I soon learned to avoid this and to inform anyone I may ask to take a picture for me, to avoid this. This camera takes excellent pictures. I find the flash a bit inadiquate to deal with subject at moderate distances with dark backgrounds. I am mostly satisfied 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 creates a less distinct section of the picture. But 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 very satisfied with most of the pictures I take from time to time.
I don't think I can add much more after all these thorough reviews, but I will say I love this camera, its my favorite, and I have had it for about 7 months and have not had any problems. [.]. I couldn't believe the price here. Used it for many occasions but my favorite was our trip to the Grand Canyon, the camera was an ease to use and the pics came out so awesome.
