Perfect for my daughter
I bought this camera to replace a cheap Kodak model which my daughter used for about a year before it broke. This Canon is simple to use, takes great pictures and has nice features. It's a good value, especially for a young or casual person to use. The shooting mode selection wheel is somewhat poorly made. It would be nicer if it clicked into place more solidly. Otherwise, we're happy with it, like the other Canon cameras we've owned.

Canon PowerShot A460
Since I generally buy high-tech stuff when it is about to be discontinued, this camera seemed appealing. I wanted something to be able to post pictures on the internet, and I am not interested in printing that much.
Since I am a craftsman, I am interested in posting pictures of work that I do, and techniques that I use.
I looked at the new PowerShot A470, and the main selling point with this one is more megapixels.
The A460 has 5 megapixels(more than enough for internet posting), and it also has 2 macro modes which the new A470 does not have.
I run Windows 98se, and the software included does not work with this OS,
but the true test of a digital camera ought to be, that other than cropping and changing the white balance a bit, one should not have to use all sorts of fancy software to get good pictures.
So far, this camera is very good, the only problem that I see looming in the future is the weak SD card/battery door hinge, that seems like it is too flimsy for the job it has to do. Also, I plan to get the ac/dc cable to power the camera when downloading images to the computer, using the USB port. This would eliminate having to open the door to get the SD card out, for my card reader.
I've have not used the movie mode yet, but it needs an Apple Quick Time version that does not work with my OS, maybe I can find something else, out there. Overall for the money, I am happy with my purchase.

Very bad
This camera is really a bad one from the canon.
I have bought other canon cameras those were excellent but this particular camera frustrated me as it costs me my attention, time and money for nothing

Don't get what you pay for!
Even at $100 this cam is probably not what you want. Very slow flash recycle and battery low warning after just 10 non flash shots! Seems to be basic design flaw as many others have complained about this.
