TestSeek's Expert Reviews Summary
Staff at TestSeek has read all the expert reviews (so you don't have to) for this product and written a summary of what the editors think about the product.
The Canon Powershot A 1000 IS is a good buy for those who wish to have an automatic settings camera. The camera has an Easy Mode which gives a clear-cut image, both colourful and white balanced. However, the camera does have a high noise level with higher ISO settings while using the manual mode. It also has a 4x zoom feature, face recognition software, and a 2.5 inch high resolution LCD screen. It also has a unique 10-shot scene mode, which along with the Optical image stabilization gives very good quality images.
The camera has another rare feature which is a DIGIC 3 processor, giving it a very quick start-up time, easy auto-focus, and also helps improve the power usage. The A 1000 IS has a much slimmer and sleek looking appearance than its predecessors. It can be worked using one hand when necessary as the dials are strategically placed to be easily accessible with one hand.
