4 out of 5 stars   Great Camera if you have patience.....
By The Baroness :) on September 19, 2010
Verified Purchase
Review submitted for Canon PowerShot A490 (Silver) 10 Megapixel Camera (CNPSA490S)
Pros: Good in Low Light, Great Zoom, Large Clear LCD, Good Image Quality, Easy To Use
Cons: Lag / Shutter Delay
Other Comments: This is really a nice camera and the pictures are top notch quality. The lag time however is a bit much and it could be because it is a refurb. Also it charges the flash quite a bit necessitating yet another wait. Not a great deal to complain about here but if you are an impatient soul like me, it will frustrate a bit. otherwise an excellent deal for the money.

4 out of 5 stars   Good value for simple picture taking.
By Wheelestate on August 01, 2010
Verified Purchase
Review submitted for Canon PowerShot A490 (Silver) 10 Megapixel Camera (CNPSA490S)
Pros: Good Image Stabilization, Good in Low Light, Clever features, Lots of tricks
Cons:
Other Comments: I bought this camera for a month long European trip because I did not want to lug along my larger Canon. It proved to be a good decision. It did everything I wanted and was small enough to keep in a pocket. Of course, it wasn't as sharp as the EOS but much more convenient and perfectly suited for the quality needed. I will keep it in the car for those quick uses that always seem to pop up.

By What we did for Summer on July 11, 2010
Verified Purchase
Review submitted for Canon PowerShot A490 (Silver) 10 Megapixel Camera (CNPSA490S)
Pros: Good Image Stabilization
Cons: Short Battery Life
Other Comments: Great image stabilization - for once a camera that the kids can use where we can keep most the pictures. Good sharp, clear pictures. Make sure to get rechargeable batteries though, this camera eats through batteries. Would definately recommend it.

4 out of 5 stars   Great little camera for under $100.
By vincethesoundguy on May 16, 2010
Verified Purchase
Review submitted for Canon PowerShot A490 (Silver) 10 Megapixel Camera (CNPSA490S)
Pros: Short Lag Time, Great Zoom
Cons:
Other Comments: This is a great little camera for the money, no doubt. It's small/compact, uses regular AA batteries, so you don't need to worry about carrying a charger. Takes great photos, but don't let the 10 megapixel chip fool you. Remember a great image is a combination of a great lens and big chip. Obviously for less than $100 you're getting an adequate lens only. The only thing that annoyed me upon opening up the package is the camera comes without even a very small memory card. So it's not just take it out of the box and shoot. The adverts for it don't mention that it doesn't come with a memory card. Luckily I had an extra from my full-on Nikon SLR.
