      Canon PowerShot A470 Digital Camera

      By Donald Malouf

      Verdict: The 7.1-megapixel A470 is very inexpensive, so I don't have to worry about the damage a toddler might do to it. And I don't have to trade image quality for price; in our lab tests, it performed as well as several far more expensive cameras

      Canon PowerShot A470

      By John Easterman

      Review summary: My three-year-old son thinks he's Ansel Adams, so it's important for me to buy a camera that works for him as well as for me. The Canon PowerShot A470 fits the bill
