I've been using the Canon Powershot A70 for a few months now and have been very satisfied with it. I've had a few emails from people wanting information on it so I thought I'd post a few reviews of the camera from the experts.

DCRP Reviews writes about the A70 saying - 'In case you didn't notice, I really liked the PowerShot A70. In fact, I've been interested in it since the time I was first told about it, a few weeks before its introduction. The A70 isn't just a low-cost camera, it's a full-featured camera too. It has full manual controls, including shutter speed and aperture, focus, and white balance. Performance and image quality are both very good, as are the playback and movie modes. It also supports add-on lenses and an underwater case. '
Steve's Digicams also rates the Canon Powershot A70 highly writing - 'Canon's PowerShot A70 is an excellent choice for those wanting an easy to use, fully featured yet compact three-megapixel camera. '

I've personally found the Powershot A70 to be just what I wanted. The features are quite comprehensive, I've found 3.2 mega-pixels to be more than adequate.
My only criticism of the camera is that the setting dial on top is easily knocked which means numerous time when I've pulled it out of its cover to take a quick picture I've taken the picture only to find that the setting has changed and the picture is not quite as I'd intended it.
Its a pretty small price to pay for what is otherwise a great compact digital camera. I recommend the Powershot A70 to you.
Thanks Canon for providing me with a great little camera.
