So far no regrets yet
( - 3/24/06)Canon PowerShot A700 is my 4th digital camera. The first three were Nikon Coolpix, Fuji and Sony DSC-W1. Have owned this camera for almost 2 weeks now and have been impressed with it performance.
I had 4 requirements when researching for my next camera: AA sized batteries; sharp macro function; powerful optical zoom and anti-shake mechanism.
Canon PowerShot A700 came pretty close to meeting all of them.
I use my camera a lot for photographing orchids and other flowers. My Sony produces slightly sharper colours than the Canon PowerShot A700 but the combination of a 6X optical zoom and a powerful "1 cm Macro" more than compansates for my needs. Aperture and Shutter priority plus full manual mode puts this camera one class above other "pocket-size" digital cameras.
