A really great camera for kids! (and adults!)
The Canon A520 is a grea camera for many reasons. First of all, it takes many pictures on many different resolutions! Second, it can also take at least 10 minutes of videos! Also, you can see what you're taking a picture of on the back screen of the camera! What a awesome camera!

This is a great camera. Easy to use and takes very good digital pictures.
Works poorly with Windows XP
The Cannon Software that comes with this camera is not very user-friendly.
I personaly have had a horrible nightmare with the software and currently Canon Tech support is unable to remedy the problem.
Picture quality, the "standard" setting takes pictures that are very "overexposed" or white looking.
Must have add-ons .... the 16mb memory card included only holdl hold 8 to 15 4 mpeg pictures.
You need to buy rechargeble 2500 mah batteries, standard batteries will take about 20 pictures with flash on.
Overall unsatisfied customer, i only paid xxx.xx and i believe that was too much.
Best wishes

ok
this camera is a little big for the price and some pictures I took came out very bad quality. I tried to take a small passport photo and was unable to make a good one. I returned it for a camera with more than 3mps
Great value for money
I have had this camera for a month now and absolutely love it. Totally delivers! I have found it just like the other reviews describe it - very intuitive manual controls, great picture quality, light weight - great value for money. With 4MP, prints come out really great. Video mode is decent. Yes there is a slight wait time between pictures but hey I am not one who uses multiple shots very often. Battery life is not too bad either. I just bought a Sony 15 minute charger so hopefully won't have to worry about batteries running out now! All in all - a great buy
