PowerShot A540 Digital Camera

Date of Review:  Oct 20, 2006
The Bottom Line: I highly recommend this camera. It is a solid mid-range camera with nice advanced features.
Review: If you read my review on the PowerShot A530, you will know why I now have a A540.

I use my digital camera on a daily basis. It is contantly nearby. I want dependability, ease of use, good hand feel, portability and photo quality in a...

A540 worthless

Date of Review:  Jun 3, 2008
Review: I am amazed that there are so many glowing reports when thousands of owners have experienced a fatal flaw with the lens. Canon refuses to stand behind its product in spite of a threatened class action suit by disgusted customers. Don't purchase any...

Great Camera for Beginners and Intermediate!

Date of Review:  Apr 6, 2007
The Bottom Line: Great for beginners who want high quality photos and prints.
Review: I purchased this camera about 4 months ago, and I've taken over 200 pictures with it. No problems so far at all. I love it. It's pretty self explanatory, with a quick read of the manual. I was taking pictures within an hour.
I took it on...

Great buy for your buck

Date of Review:  Dec 12, 2006
Review: I've had this camera and have used it for about three weeks. It is feature rich. There is nothing else in the price range with a 4x optical zoom/6 mp that can offer such a range of use - from beginner to advanced. I did my homework on this one. The...

Best camera for the money

Date of Review:  Mar 13, 2007
The Bottom Line: I would buy this again without hesitation and think it is a great camera for the money.
Review: I read a number of reviews before buying this camera, and I'm pleased to see that all those who had positives to share about it were right. I can't imagine being happier with any other one out there right now.
The price was right, especially...

My third "A" Canon and, by far, the best!

Date of Review:  Jun 24, 2006
The Bottom Line: The latest incarnation of the Powershot A line. A worthwhile camera with many fun, easy to use and satisfying features and results.
Review: I began, years back, with Canon's Powershot A20 2MP), then promoted myself up to the A70 (3.2MP) about two year ago. Three days ago, I received my newest self-indulgence: the new Powershot A540 (6MP). So far, I have used it to take 40=50 shots,...

Experience with the Powershot Camera

Date of Review:  Apr 17, 2008
Review: It took me a while to find out how to use it but after it was fun to work with. When the camera is still, it can take amazing photographs. It can have distortions in the pictures, but not a bad camera at all. Battery life is moderate, would...

Canon Power Shot is a pro

Date of Review:  Mar 19, 2007
Review: After reviewing the comments left here, I bought this Canon and love it. It is easy to use and takes awesome pictures. They print without being grainy and very focused. I have to delete very few, usually because i didn't set it for the lighting,...

Great Camera

Date of Review:  Jul 5, 2006
Review: I had a Canon A520 that I just upgraded to the A540 and it takes amazing shots. I take tons of photos both of people and when I travel and this camera takes great photos! I took photos of the fireworks on the 4th of July and they look professional!...
