Disappointed
The entire casing is made with plastic and in time that door that houses the battery will break off. I love QVC but this is a terrible product - it's going back!

After using several Powershot A's and an IXUS 90IS as a companion to my dSLR's I bought this camera after the IXUS took a hit on the street. The thing is cheap, but so were other Canon Powershot A's. The image quality of this thing however is terrible in comparisson. The main problem is noise.

Canon PowerShot A2300
The Canon PowerShot A2300 ($149.99 direct) may seem like a bargain on the surface. The attractive metal-bodied camera is compact, it grabs sharp 16-megapixel photos, sports a 5x zoom range, and it's pretty responsive.
Pros:
- Inexpensive
- Compact
- Sharp lens
- Fairly speedy
Cons:
- Poor high ISO performance
- Lacks image stabilization
- Limited video support

Canon PowerShot A2400 IS, A2300: Simple pocket cams for casual snapshooters
When it comes to entry-level point-and-shoots, Canon's A-series PowerShots consistently excel in picture quality. That certainly holds true for the 16-megapixel A2400 IS and A2300.
Pros:
- The Canon PowerShot A2400 IS and PowerShot A2300 have very good picture quality for their class and are loaded with effects and filters
Cons:
- The cameras' flat buttons and cramped layout may make use difficult for some and shooting performance is slow, particularly shot-to-shot
- The lenses require a lot of light or high ISOs when zoomed in.

Excellent Camera - Highly Recommend
I have owned the same Olympus camera for the past 12 years. I refused to get rid of the big and bulky older model because it took such high quality pictures. I didn't think any camera out there could top it but I was wrong. This little camera packs a lot of bang for the buck.
Pros:
- Easy set up
- Light weight
- Easy to use
- Battery life is good
- Color is vibrant
Cons:
- Not super clear under dim lighting

Quite disappointed with the camera although it looks good, there is a delay between taking the shot and the camera taking the photo, hence lots of not so good pictures. Also flash not too good.
