  Canon PowerShot A520 Digital Camera Pro Review
  By Loren Crannell
  
  Review summary: I have been impressed with Canon's digital camera quality for some time. Two years ago I took a Canon G3 on a trip to Paris. And I use Canon digital SLRs for my professional photography work. The Canon PowerShot A520 is the first Canon consumer point ...
  
  Pros: Lightweight and compact, Manual controls, Readily available AA batteries, Anti-shake technology
  
  Cons: No ISO info in EXIF data, Shutter lag very noticeable, Monitor is small compared to comparable cameras, Noise at higher ISO settings, Plastic body
  
  Verdict: The Canon A520 is lightweight camera with credibility. When you are out-and-about, it can go with you without slowing you down. For the money, it will give you great shots of your family and personal events. The thing I liked the best was its ease-of ...

  Review summary: In this special 2-in-1 review, I'll be reviewing both the Canon PowerShot A510 and A520 at the same time. I will alternate between the views of these two cameras in the camera tour.
  
  Pros: New 4x zoom lens ; Compact ; Ergonomic grip ; A full array of manual controls ; Excellent battery life ; Overall sharp photos ; Conversion lens compatibility ; Variety of scene modes ; Very affordable price
  
  Cons: Mediocre movie mode ; High noise levels ; So-so LCD performance ; Slow for 2005 cameras
  
  Verdict: The Canon PowerShot A510 and A520 have both full manual controls and are very affordable. Despite a new 4x optical zoom lens and the ability to take overall great photos, the A510 and A520 both still lack something. If you read about the release of ...
