A610 and A620 are excellent camera also to photograph documents
(Heinz Hammerling - 3/28/06)Really love the camera! Not too small (buttons I can touch). Has an optical viewfinder for bright outdoors or battery savings (only Canon and NIKON still have that). Viewfinder zooms in and out when the lens zooms, almost like an SLR. Extremely low battery consumption (especially when LCD is off - easy, since the viewfinder is bright and accurate. Good contrast, vivid well saturated colors (none of that Japanese 'blue/ green' in Caucasian faces). Autofocus impressive, only few cases where I set "Manual".
I use the camera a lot as a "copier" (turn off flash, set to Macro and zoom in on 11x8 1/2 documents, after download adjust brightness and contrast to "max" (with software) and bingo, you can e-mail the document (or save on your PC or print as a "copy")). The process takes less than a minute total!
The only "negative" is the flimsy plastic cover for the AV and USB ports— I decided to cut it off.
Canon's 800-telephone number was real friendly and patient, did not treat me like the first time user/ idiot that am.
