For a $30 camera it's wonderful.

I agree that it has ALOT of noise.

It's slower than a DSLR, but what do you expect?  IT'S NOT A DSLR!

I love the fact that it takes AA Batteries, it makes it a very good backup camera (because the quality still kicks the butt of 90+% of cell phone cameras (Android/Iphone) out there today, and you won't find yourself looking for a charger ever hour or so then worry about missing calls/txt/ktalk/email/etc).

I would give it 3 stars for overall performance/picture quality, but I'll give it 5 stars because I have to factor in the price I paid (and to offset the guy who gave it a zero rating... 0?  Come on, be nice!).

Canon PowerShot A810
16 megapixels • 2.7 screen • 28 – 140 mm (5×)
