Excellent camera for the price

I searched the web for many hours looking for a great, easy to use camera. I found many that were close in features and price. The Canon won me over for style, features, size and price. It's the best camera I've owned to date for the money.
Picture quality is really superb. I read that others felt because the A520 only had two batteries instead of four like many similar cameras, high battery use was a problem. I use Nickel Metal Hydride rechargeable and they last for days even weeks of normal use. I didn't feel it was an issue.
