Canon PowerShot A5 prices and specs
The PowerShot A5 was produced on Mar 27, 1998 and is available in USA for 209.99.
The PowerShot A5 belongs to the category of compact cameras. Its main benefit is a very small size: the photographer can even put it in the pocket. The PowerShot A5 has various automatic modes but you won't get photos of the same great quality in comparison to large sensor compact cameras.
The PowerShot A5 has max shutter speed of 1/750 sec. It is not very fast shutter speed but anyway the owner of the camera will manage to shoot images of moving subjects. The lens is built into the PowerShot A5 and the photographer can't switch it. The lens provides weak 1x optical zoom.
