Canon PowerShot A530 prices and specs
The Canon PowerShot A530 was released on Feb 21, 2006 and is sold in USA for 47.48
The Canon PowerShot A530 is a point and shoot camera. Its main advantage is a small size: the photographer can even put it in the pocket. The Canon PowerShot A530 has different automatic modes but you won't get pictures of the same perfect quality in comparison to DSLR cameras.
The PowerShot A530 can take images at 5 megapixels highest resolution. But if you want to get better photo quality the more important thing is a sensor size. The PowerShot A530 has a 1/2.5' (5.744 x 4.308 mm) sensor which means that the PowerShot A530 will make images with not so high quality as cameras with bigger sensors but instead it is more portable. But if you want to make images of the best quality pay attention to Sony Alpha a99 II.
The Canon PowerShot A530 has max shutter speed of 1/2000 sec. It is an average shutter speed that is rather good for making action images of a very good quality. The PowerShot A530 can even shoot videos but the max resolution is not too high - 640 x 480.
The lens is fixed and the camera owner can't switch it. The lens has 4x optical zoom.
