I purchased Canon PowerShot, four months back. Now as I have used it for some time, I am in a position to comment on it.
Just to start with. Its a wonderful camera. It has got almost everything which u demand from a digital camera both for professionals and amateurs.
Some key features include
4MP resolution(2272 x 1704)
Rotating LCD Monitor which enables u to have a preview from any angle.
Rest are the features which are there in its predecessor A70 like portrait, Landscape,Night Scene, Movie Mode etc....
For Professionals , it lets u set all the settings , there by gaining a true photographic experience...
It supports lens attachments.and stand.
What u get with it ----------------
The 4.0 (effective) Mpixel Canon PowerShot A80 camera
32MB CompactFlash card
Four AA alkaline batteries
Wrist strap
USB cable
A/V cable
CD-ROMs featuring Canon Digital Camera Solutions and ArcSoft Camera Suite
215 page camera manual + add'l software manual (both printed)
----------------
What I advice to buy with it.
- 512 MB Flash Card
2.I highly recommend buying at least two sets (of four) NiMH rechargeables, 2000 mAh or better. Canon estimates that you'll be able to take 675 pictures (with 50% LCD use), or spend 280 minutes in playback using their 1600 mAh rechargeable batteries( I dont know about these details as I have taken it from canon site)
What I dislike: It is heavy as it requires 4 batteries...
Price INR 23,995/
