Canon PowerShot A430 Digital Camera Review

Though it doesn’t have the manual control that some of the other A-series cameras boast, there are 14 exposure modes to get creative with, as well as Stitch-Assist mode for capturing panoramas, a Movie mode, and a Continuous mode for capturing up to 2.3 frames per second.

Canon PowerShot A430

Like its predecessor, the A430's ergonomics are great. The various controls are well placed and easily accessed by your fingertips.
