Verdict: There are a few sore spots for the point-and-shoot, however. At ISO 1600, the A720's highest sensitivity setting, noise is unreasonably high and dynamic range is low, which results in speckled images with limited tonal range. This setting is better ...

Canon PowerShot A720 IS
Review summary: If you are not looking for an ultra-compact the A720 IS could live up to your expectations with its nice images, stabilization, and 6x zoom. Only the absence of a wide angle may be cause for hesitation.

Canon Powershot A720 IS Review
Review summary: The Canon Powershot A720 IS came onto the scene late this summer to replace its popular predecessor, the A710 IS.

Cons: Poor flash cycle time ; Low pixel count in LCD (115K) ; Plastic construction doesn't inspire confidence in durability ; High ISO shots are noisy (which is pretty typical in this class) ; Low light performance not great
