Also, the time it takes to take another photo straight after could be improved, sometimes it takes ages. The only other flaw that I could see is that it is rather old fashioned and chunky now. It is quite heavy and there are many digital cameras on the market now that could be a quarter of this size.

Canon Powershot A420: A reliable camera. (169 words)

I had this camera a few years ago and still own it now, yet it is only used when I don't want to break my other camera! Whilst it is a good, sturdy camera and takes brilliant photos, there are other functions which are not available, which would be useful: the main being that there is no sound or audio capture. This means that while it can shoot video, there is no sound on it, which is rather annoying. Also, the time it takes to take another photo straight after could be improved, sometimes it takes ages.

Express Review on Canon Powershot A420

I seem to have had this camera forever.It has been everywhere with me.Its totally battered but still takes first class pics.Good colour quality,easy to use.Metal casing which I like.Its not the lightest camera but was built to last.Night time flash,great pics.If I had to find any fault it would be the time it takes to reset the flash.You can't take continual flash 'to catch the moment' without a wait.I'm sticking to Canon for my new camera though.Why fix something thats not broken!I think Canon do great cameras and I've had plenty of other makes that don't match up to theirs.
