The Canon Powershot A640 Digital Camera may be the best new digicam of 2006

Date of Review:  Oct 14, 2006
The Bottom Line: The A640 is a worthy successor to the A620
Review: Canon's "A" series digicams are well known for their bang for the buck, class leading performance, impressive build-quality, creative flexibility, and amazing ease of use. Last year's A620 sold especially well because Canon listened to what digital...

A great camera for a great price!

Date of Review:  Apr 3, 2007
The Bottom Line: This is a great camera for the price - great features, quality and usability.
Review: I owned a Canon Powershot A520 for almost two years, and I was getting really sick of it. I mean, it's a great little point-and-shoot camera, but my needs had outgrown the camera. And my particular camera had been used so much over its lifespan that...

Excellent Digital Camera and Price

Date of Review:  Feb 22, 2007
The Bottom Line: Very sturdy camera. Easy to use right out of the box but advanced features will keep the photography buff enjoying it for years. Picture quality is superb.
Review: The Canon PowerShot A640 10 mega pixel digital camera may be the best choice in its class. For the price, durability, ease of use and most importantly quality of the pictures. This camera is truly hard to beat.

Best Camera I Have Ever Had

Date of Review:  Aug 1, 2009
The Bottom Line: I would recommend it to anyone who wants good pictures but doesnt mind making some adjustments to the way they take photos. I recommend energizer lithium batteries for it.
Review: I got this camera as a replacement to my fujifilm 4.1 megapixel that I dropped in some awesome sand at the beach, which caused my lense to not be able to come out at all. Best choice I have ever made.
PROS: I love taking pictures, and I love...

Review of Canon PowerShot A640 Digital Camera

Date of Review:  Jun 3, 2007
The Bottom Line: The camera is an excellent point and shoot for either a beginning enthusiast or a Prosumer who wants a high quality point and shoot as a backup for casual use.
Review: I purchased this camera in October 2006, primarily for it's point and shoot capabilities. My Canon 5D is an excellent camera, but on daily early morning walks with the dog in the Arizona desert, it is too heavy. Occasionally, a good photo...

Wow!

Date of Review:  Dec 30, 2006
The Bottom Line: I definitely recommend it.
Review: I love this camera. After having the same digital camera for 6 years that sported one mega pixel, it was time for an upgrade. I shopped around and settled on this camera. It was actually smaller than my previous camera but has 10 megapixels. This is...

Good for webmasters, not bar masters

Date of Review:  Jan 24, 2007
Review: I run an information website and needed a camera with at least 10 MP's and manual settings for taking pictures of hotels and beach locations. After a lot of research I chose the A640 and could not be happier with the results. I, however, find it too...

Great for beginner or high end amateur

Date of Review:  Jan 7, 2008
The Bottom Line: I give this a very high recommendation. Great quality photos, very easy to use for all levels of expertise, great battery life(important).
Review: First let me say I am not a professional photographer but I am able to take some professional looking photos with the Canon A640. I do not know everything there is to know about photography- I am learning as I play with my A640.
