Great for amateurs

Date of Review:  Dec 21, 2007
The Bottom Line: Great for the average person. Good price and quality.
Review: The Canon PowerShot A720IS Digital Camera has been a great family camera. I originally was looking for budget friendly easy to use point and shoot camera for a person with no camera experience, and this has done a great job. The camera is...

Canon PowerShot A720 IS 8-Megapixel Digital Camera With 6x Optical Stabilized Zoom

Date of Review:  Feb 21, 2008
The Bottom Line: The Canon PowerShot A720 IS is an excellent camera with one exception. Its flash recycles slowly (up to 12 seconds at full power), meaning you cannot...
Review: The Canon PowerShot A720 IS features 8-Megapizel resolution, 6x optical zoom and optical image stabilization. Very similar to the last year's A710 IS (but with higher resolution), the A720 is a very good camera and here is why.

Although Canon...

too many options

Date of Review:  Oct 18, 2007
The Bottom Line: My final recommendation is that buy it only if you have time to explore the many options and learn make the many adjustments it needs.
Review: We just brought Cannon A720IS because we read good reviews on the Internet and also because it has high mega pixel ratio and zoom. It has many options but I could not figure out how to use the many settings and options. It is not very intuitive. My...

Lots better by comparison

Date of Review:  Oct 23, 2007
The Bottom Line: For the price, this is a very good choice that will serve well, and won't overwhelm, a snapshot-happy soccer mom, and won't disappoint a fairly knowledgeable photographer
Review: The Canon A720IS stands heads and shoulders above the (three) Olympus cameras I've used - and I found its menus and settings more user-friendly than the two Nikon Coolpix models I've handled.

In the first few weeks of using this camera,...

The Bottom Line: The Canon A720IS is a great buy and takes great pictures.
