Canon PowerShot A3000 IS prices and specs
The Canon PowerShot A3000 IS was released on Jan 5, 2010 and is available in USA for 199.99.
The Canon PowerShot A3000 IS belongs to the category of point and shoot cameras. Its main benefit is a very small size: the photographer can even put it in the pocket. The camera is equipped with various automatic modes but you won't get pictures of the same perfect quality in comparison to large sensor compact cameras.
The Canon PowerShot A3000 IS can shoot images at 10 megapixels highest resolution. But if you want to get better photo quality the more important specification is a sensor size. The PowerShot A3000 IS has a 1/2.3' (6.17 x 4.55 mm) sensor which means that the PowerShot A3000 IS will make images with a lower quality than cameras with larger sensors but instead it is smaller. But if you want to take images of the best quality check Canon EOS 5DS.
The camera has max shutter speed of 1/1600 sec. It is not very fast shutter speed but still the owner of the camera will manage to make images of moving subjects. The Canon PowerShot A3000 IS can even capture videos but the max resolution is not very good - 640 x 480 (30 fps).
The lens is built into the Canon PowerShot A3000 IS and the camera owner won't be able to switch it. The lens provides 4x optical zoom.
