Canon PowerShot A470 prices and specs
The Canon PowerShot A470 was produced on Jan 24, 2008 and is sold in USA for 249.95.
The Canon PowerShot A470 is a point and shoot camera. Its main benefit is a small size: the photographer can take it anywhere with himself easily. The Canon PowerShot A470 has different automatic modes but you won't get photos of the same high quality in comparison to large sensor compact cameras.
The camera can shoot images at 7 megapixels max resolution. But if you want to get better picture quality the more important thing is a sensor size. This camera has a 1/2.5' (5.744 x 4.308 mm) sensor which means that the camera will shoot images with a lower quality than cameras with larger sensors but instead it is smaller. But if you want to shoot images of the professional quality check Canon EOS 5DS.
The Canon PowerShot A470 has max shutter speed of 1/2000 sec. It is an average shutter speed that is rather good for shooting action images of a satisfactory quality. The camera can even record videos but the max resolution is not very good - 640 x 480.
The lens is built into the camera and the camera owner won't be able to switch it. The lens has weak 3x optical zoom.
