Those Who Do Not Understand History...(Background) The Canon A630 is yet another entry in Canon's long running and very successful A-series camera line. Since I had good luck with my previous generation A75, I decided to stick with the A ...

This Amateur Feels Like a Pro With the Canon PowerShot A630 Digital Camera

by popsrocks Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 50, Mar 06 '07
Pros: Good quality images and great features.
Cons: Larger in size than beginner cameras. Heavier too
I started taking digital photos when I was sent a Canon A100 camera from Epinions as a holiday gift three years ago. That camera has started me in a new world of digital image taking. My wife is also very much involved in making photos of the family, ...

by kbolton72 Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, Dec 06 '06
Pros: Fast auto focus, great movie mode, crisp pictures
Cons: A tad expensive
I was heartbroken when my family and I went to a baseball game, and after setting my Canon Powershot S3 IS camera on the edge of my seat, it fell down from the stand and at least 4 feet onto the cement, smashing the lens and zoom on it, shattering ...

Compact Power! For Point-and-shoot simplicity or SLR fans.

by skseattle , Oct 21 '06
Pros: Quality construction, lightweight, compact, tons of features and settings, optional extras, great price.
Cons: For serious photographers... Fewer lenses than SLR, longest shutter speed is 15 seconds.
Just want to point and shoot? No problem. Set it to full auto, choose your zoom level and get stunning color and clarity. Some nice options like Telephoto and wide lenses, waterproof case and external flash. Since 1993 I've been a hobbyist and ...

As a long-time Olympus SLR user, I was blown away by Canon!

by toogreen , Apr 10 '07
Pros: Too many to mention here, but I have included them in the review! Awesome capability!
Cons: Strangely, no "Sports" mode, but you don't really need it, as there are other ways...
I've spent 30 years using and loving Olympus SLR gear, and consider myself a serious amateur photographer. I was unimpressed when my wife brought home a freebie Canon 2MP A60 from her office. "2MP" I chuckled... Then I took it out on a photo ...

Great for newbie & seasoned amateur

by mymanchris , Sep 28 '07
Pros: Auto settings allow quick point & shoot Great quality photos Fits in pocket
Cons: 4-AA batteries don't last long enough Time to auto focus is average
When I bought a digital camera, I was really venturing into the unknown. Despite being a technical guy, digital photography was one area where I was a complete newcomer. The PowerShot A630 has been absolutely wonderful, though, and its balance between ...

Nice backup camera when SLR is too bulky to use

by eberin , Feb 06 '07
Pros: Extreme value for image quality and portability
Cons: Low light capability is marginal, but typical for point-and-shoot class.
I bought this Canon A630 to back up my Canon Rebel XT dSLR - both are 8 Mpixel. The A630 was intended for situations that didn't require the dSLR attributes - low light, lens interchangeability, bulkiness,and most importantly: the rapid shot-to-shot ...

Overall good performance

by narcan , Feb 12 '07
Pros: Auto focus, optics, features, custom timer, good zoom range, low noise, great sharp photos/enlargements
Cons: Looks, build, low light shooting, LCD brightness,
First Impressions: At first glance I was disappointed. The colour is a boring, cheap looking silver. The body has some weight, but still feels a bit on the flimsy side to me (I'm used to using SLR cameras). The plastic camera lens dress ring is not ...

Love It!

by smartone86 , Jan 03 '08
Pros: Great quality, many features, large LCD
Cons: Slightly heavy
I've had experiences thus far with a few digital cameras, and this one so far is my favorite. Last fall I was frustrated with my Kodak EasyShare digital camera. It's not that Kodak makes bad cameras, it's just that mine was low end, with poor battery ...

WONDERFUL Camera

by blickfold2004 , Mar 01 '07
Pros: Quick, great quality pictures, easy to use
Cons: Included memory card, a little bulky
I ordered this camera after reading the phenomenal reviews, and, what can I say, it certainly does live up to the expectations! It's ready to go, right out of the box. If you just need point-and-shoot, it's all set up! If you like to mess with custom ...

Disappointed with color & Auto-focus

by michaelk-07 , Mar 11 '07
Pros: Lots of options and controls (shutter priority, flash strength, etc). Step-up from full-auto.
Cons: flat color, lack of clarity. Auto setting undependable (esp focus)
Canon A630: Disappointed with color & Auto-focus About two months ago I bought a Canon A630. I've taken several hundred shots, mostly outdoors (visiting Thailand) and of our puppy indoors. The colors are flat, photos lack clarity, the gimmick ...

Powershot A630 is a WINNER!

by rodneyk , Dec 12 '06
Pros: Quick power on, flash recharge. Lens adapter. Good image quality.
Cons: Image noise noticeable at ISO 400 and above
The Powershot A630 is the update to the A610 and A620 line with a boost in image resolution (8MP), larger LCD screen and adjustable ISO. The A630 has a removable ring, which allows mounting of the optional lens adapter (LA-DC58F). I picked up the A630 ...

Canon's A630 seems nice enough, but it's only bin a few weeks

by aplmac , May 17 '07
Pros: Big bright screen!
Decent battery life (especially with the screen turned off!)
Cons: Why is the SD card in the battery compartment??
Wish camera were bigger, like PowerShotA40.
My Canon PowerShot A40 of four years started malfunctioning after a few falls, etc., so on my recent Carnival Destiny cruise that went thru Sint Maarten (see my review of that,too) I bought the very similar PowerShotA630 while ashore ...
