Goodbye To My New Point & Shoot

I just bought my Canon Powershot a480 three weeks ago at a 0% promo discount. Why? Because I want to buy a new business phone on a 0% plan too and don’t think it’s practical to pay for two gadgets at installment basis. The total is ridiculously high and it makes me nervous that I need to pay that amount every month for one whole year.

I sold it to my brother-in-law who fell in love with the camera at first sight. Can’t blame him because I loved this digital camera a lot too except for a few shots taken inside our room. Either there’s too much noise or the shutter speed isn’t enough to take steady photos without flash. That is the most important thing when taking photos of kids.

It’s still a very good camera especially if you think about the price. Some of the shots are DSLR-worthy. I compared it with my shots with out Canon 40D and they are almost similar IF you’re shooting with plenty of light.

Other features: multi-face detection, several scenes to choose from including super macro, program mode – set up ISO, white balance, etc, high quality video (my favorite)

If you’re looking for a cheap but reliable cam, I highly suggest this one. In fact, if I stumble upon some extra cash, I’ll get a Canon Powershot a480 again.
