Canon Powershot A720 IS Review

“While certainly not the thinnest camera in the world, the Canon PowerShot A720 IS is compact enough to meet the portable requirements of most shutterbugs hungering for a camera they can stow on their person and keep out of mind until it’s time to capture a moment. If tight jeans are your thing, the A720 at 3.83-by-2.64-by-1.65 inches and weighing a tad over seven ounces, pocketing the camera may be challenging, but for flannel shirt types like myself, it will nestle comfortably in a breast pocket…

...This Canon offering takes good photos both indoors and out, but its best work is done with natural light. The camera makes it very easy to change aperture and shutter settings on the fly and the impact of those changes are faithfully reflected on the unit’s LCD display. However, seeing subtle changes in a scene on the display is difficult in direct sunlight.”
