Canon PowerShot A300 Reviews

While the Canon PowerShot A300 lacks an optical zoom, it makes up for it by providing features (like an autofocus-assist light) usually reserved for more expensive cameras. Image quality is excellent with the exception of barrel distortion around some pictures' edges. read original review

Great prints up to 8x10 inches, simple controls, and a robust feature set make the Canon PowerShot A300 a great choice for those just getting started in digital photography. If you can afford the extra money, the Canon A70 offers a 3x zoom. read original review

The easy-to-use and inexpensive Canon PowerShot A300 is an "excellent" camera that takes great pictures and offers a very useful (and advanced) feature set that consumers will appreciate. read original review
