Pros: Much like the A520 that has been good to us the last couple of years.
Cons: A bit larger body camera and small LED than other comparably priced cameras.
The Bottom Line: For the sake of comfort and familiarity my wife upgraded from an A520 to the A530. They are much the same with a couple of improvements.
This reviewer recommends this product.
Review:
My wife and I purchased a Canon PowerShot A520 Digital Camera for her the spring before last. She was quite happy with the camera but she needed another because she wants to use the Power Shot A520 exclusively with the camera club she runs at...

I am not a big fan of cameras that use 4 AA batteries, which is one of the reasons I consider cameras like Canon A610/A620 and S2 IS less than ideal. But I like cameras that use two AA batteries. Previously, you could only get up to 4MP resolution...

Pros: 7 megapixels, 4X optical zoom, and uses available anywhere AA batteries
Cons: Redeye, some corner softness and minor chromatic aberration (purple fringing)
The Bottom Line: The new Canon Powershot A550 Digital Camera provides an almost perfect balance of cost to performance, flexibility, and ease of use.
This reviewer recommends this product.
Review:
Canon's "A" series digicams are famous for their practicality, flexibility, class leading performance, impressive build-quality, and amazing ease of use – that's why they've been number one in U. S. sales for the past four years. "A" series digicams...
