Transcript of Featured Review

Hi I'm reviewing the Canon Power Shot A520 four mega pixel digital camera. The camera takes--SD card is the main memory source does a great optical zoom so it's great for taking pictures of far off things. I like to go to a nearby forest reserve and I have no problems taking picture of say deer that are hundred of feet away. The LCD screen on the back is very clear does a good job of representing what the picture will look like before you take it. The camera has a lot of different shooting modes. There's one for taking pictures in snow one for taking pictures at night one for taking pictures indoor for indoor lighting. There's actually even one for taking pictures of fireworks and the night sky was pretty cool for summer during the fourth of July or whatever. The camera is a bit larger than most other ones I've used. That s a big downfall but it still generally fits in my pocket fine without any problem. Uses two double A batteries. This is another problem. This digital camera kinda goes through the batteries pretty quickly so I really recommend that you pay a little extra for some rechargeable batteries. Now let me quickly take a look at the camera. As I showed before this is the LCD screen which shows the preview of the picture before you take it or whatever you're looking at. This is the button that you hold and press to take the picture. Move this little trigger to zoom in or out. This little switch here you can turn it to pick the mode like quick shot or if you want to take a picture of something that's moving quickly. This is obviously that. This is where you plug in the USB port or any extra cords. This down here is where you put the memory. And this is where the batteries go. So that's the Canon Power Shot A520 four mega pixel camera and you should find it anywhere electronics are sold. Bye.
