Easy to use and it takes exceptional photos, with many features found only on more expensive cameras.... all this and it takes videos. Light weight and small, I can take it with me everywhere I go.... a great camera at a inexpensive price!

Summary: A pre-technology grandma's review
Comment: When I dropped my previous digital camera at my grandaughter's birthday party and it broke, I went to Amazon.com and looked extensively for a new one. I read all the reviews and chose the Canon PowerShot A560 7. I like the camera, but the instruction manuel is not user-friendly. I had to take a class to find out how to work the camera and even the experienced instructor could not find all the information. Fortunately, he knew enough to help me. It would be really nice if they assumed you knew nothing and just started at the beginning, identifying each part and telling what it did and how to use it. The batteries that came with the camera lasted for an extremely short time, but the new ones lasted longer. However, I would recommend you always keep spare batteries with you, as they do not last a long time. Also the memory chip that comes with the camera only takes about 10 to 12 pictures, so you will need to purchase a new memory chip.

Summary: Great Family Camera
Comment: This is my family's "first" digital camera. We had been borrowing the one from my husband's job (with permission) to capture family events, and decided to get our own. We were not looking for anything fancy, more like a digital 35mm camera. We settled on this one as it had good features for a price we could afford. Here's what we like:

We leave it on the AUTO setting most of the time, and it does well, especially outdoors, even with the kids in motion.
We were surprised at how well it captures details, and the colors are rich.
It has a decent zoom.
The video comes out well for a "snapshot" camera.
It is lightweight, but not tiny enough to lose.

What we've learned:

Turn the LCD off if you want your batteries to last!
Play around with the settings for indoor/ low light settings.

Overall, this is a nice, consistent camera for capturing family moments, great for the price.
