Canon PowerShot A640 Details
Editors' Comments
The Canon A640 is a 10-megapixel point-and-shoot camera that is perfect for casual users who'd like a little extra power in their hands, and it has Digital Camera HQ's highest recommendation. The 10-megapixel sensor is a signal that the push for more and more megapixels in smaller and smaller cameras is nowhere near over. The A640 continues the fine tradition of Canon's A620/10 and A95 models, offering a superior controls and features that are easy to understand and yield above average results. This camera is beyond amazing, and we at DCHQ are confident that it will be Canon's next big success.
