Best Digital Camera Choice?
My wants and needs come to a compact, high quality, point and shooter under $200…and I think I’ve come to the conclusion that I’m going to purchase a Canon Powershot A550…any opinions?
Probably the most popular and unbiased source for comparison reviews is CNET.com. If you click “digital cameras” on the lefthand column of the main page under “reviews,” you can browse for cameras by price, brand, use, and combinations of those factors. In addition, I recommend organizing the search results by “editors’ rating” rather than “review date.”
The PowerShot A550 is ranked 7.4/10 with the following summary:
The good: Responsive performance; slightly above-average lens.
The bad: Images plagued with artifacts and fringing; small LCD.
The bottom line: This camera’s low price tag and solid performance can help you forget that it doesn’t have many bells or whistles.
Follow the link below to read the full review and owners’ comments. I use CNET before purchasing any electronic or software because it is truly unbiased and trusted by my techie friends. Examples of A550 photos can be found in the Flickr link provided below.
