Awesome camera!!
(Megan - 5/12/07)I just got a Canon A460 this morning. I have already taken a ton of pics and video. Sofar from what I can tell, it takes very clear, sharp pictures and the video is great with clear audio. A couple things I have found that I don't like, is you can't put a date stamp on the pictures unless you're in postcard mode, and the software isn't as straight forward as the one from my last camera, a Kodak C340. It seems to be well built, so I think it will be pretty durable. The LCD screen is clear and accurate. It has a guide beam to help you line up your shots, and it chimes to let you know when it is focused. The battery life is already great, I'm still on the alkaline batteries it came with, my Kodak would go through a set of batteries every 5-10 pics. The startup is very quick. Less than a second I think once you disable the logo screen, which is very easy to do. The controls are a bit more complicated than I am used to, but I'm sure I will become acustomed to it quickly. The shutter button and power buttons are in the wrong places, compared to what I'm used to. I keep hitting the power button instead of the shutter, but that too I can get used to. All in all, from what I can tell it is a very nice little camera for under $200CAD.
