The Canon A2500 is a newer version of this camera, but if you do a comparison between the new A2500 and this one, the A2300, the specs are nearly identical in features. The only difference I could find was a very slight difference in overall size and a small difference in photos per battery charge even though they use the same battery. This is a basic point and shoot camera, almost as basic as you will find nowadays. Which makes this a good choice for a person that's new to digital anyone really. It's a small camera, easily fits in a pocket. The buttons are laid out well so you don't hit a wrong button when you meant to push another. In this regard, much better than a couple of the Canon Elph models I tried previously. Build quality itself seems very good, but I do notice some noise in the zoom motor when playing back videos. Leave it on SmartAuto. Your photos will be good 99% of the time. But if you think you will get DSLR quality images with this camera? You can't expect that with a camera this price. This camera is not that great in low light if you don't use the flash; when there's not enough light your photos will be grainy. It takes very good photos outdoors on a sunny day but almost any camera will give you the same. I'd even go so far to say that some Smartphones will take better photos than this camera. No matter where you're shooting make sure you can hold steady while shooting, sure this has digital image stabilization, but it's not as good as optical stabilization. And as far as I can tell, the Digital IS only active when you choose the Digital IS setting by choosing Program-FuncSet-and right clicking the control wheel to Digital IS. This is disappointing that it's not available on all settings. The menus are typical Canon, and there is no dial like the more expensive cameras have. No optical viewfinder for those of you wanting to know. The LCD screen is average quality, not enough dots, so when you take a photo and look at it on the camera's screen, it doesn't look nearly as good as when you upload it to your computer. I think I'm spoiled by my Sony cameras that have 921,000 dots, compared to this Canon that has only 230,000 dots. It's a little slow between shots, there is processing lag, especially when using the flash. Videos are ok with this camera, 720p is fine for those with an older computer. this Canon has audio with the video, but it's not stereo. You cannot optically zoom during the video, but you can do so before you first press the video button. If you DO use the zoom button after pushing the video button, it will be CRUMMY-looking digital zoom and you will hear noticeable zoom motor noise/clicking,at least on this camera I did. I wish it had fewer megapixels than 16 MP. The sensor, being a 1/2.3 like most cheaper cameras, is too small. More megapixels are not better unless the sensor size is also larger to go along with it. This is part of the reason these cameras are crummy in low-light situations. So this Canon will do there's always some kind of sacrifice one makes when choosing a camera. One thing I really like about this is the use of a lithium ion battery as opposed to AA batteries, and it has a separate battery charger. It also comes with Canon photo editing software, and I think is better than Picasa, although there are less editing features to choose. No internal memory at all, make sure you buy an SDHC card. I recommend a Class 10 card, especially if you plan on shooting videos.Read full review
The camera initially looks simple and if it is, looks like a toy is a good toy with 16 megapixel photographs get more realistic, Canon is a brand endorsed and established for many years. A lightweight camera is the Power Shot A2300, have HD recording, Smart Auto mode for the camera Select the most appropriate scene and manual mode where you choose the filter from the scene, fun and creative filters, you have the ease of manipulate the photograph with the option program creates panoramic fun a cheap camera, simple with great picture quality and very easy to use
I like the way this camera performs. It is easy to set up for different scenes, closeups, etc. The pictures it produces are very sharp and clear. I don't have to be a rocket scientist to take pictures in all kinds of lighting situations. I am well-pleased with this camera and would recommend to anyone who likes good results without a lot of adjustments to go through.

I purchase this as a gift after noticing how compact and light it was I decided to buy one for me. A Canon is like buying a Cadillac, It retains it's value! I had one Canon before for many years till I decided to retire it and upgrade. I was without a physical camera for many years the cellphone put too much information on the picture specially the exact location where the picture was taken and I have read stories about the risks of that little feature now I take that worry out of my mind Thank You for this great deal.

great little camera, i was surprised at the value i got for my money. of course, being a canon camera, i expected a minimum brand name quality that was greatly surpassed. the menu and the controls are very easy to understand and operate. i recomend this camera if you are a photo enthusiast as the primary one if you just want simplicity of use and a ton of features at your fingertip. i you want high end features, you will be pleasantly surprised that you have those too.
Canon PowerShot A2300 is a great camera for personal use. It is a very intelligent camera. You don't have to add any effects or do manual color balance. Just take your photos using default mode. it will automatically adjust settings and add effects. Day or night it will perform as usual. you need a little support from another light source for getting high quality videos at night. but photos are super awesome even if there is no light or even you can't see anything. Photos quality is awesome. use sdhc cards for better performance. im using class 10 sdhc card. works great
I love my camera, it is awesome!! I have 2 other digital rebel xts but I wanted a smaller camera to throw in my purse. This one takes excellent pictures and has tons of features. Very easy to use.
I love this camera the quality is super great and the color is so cute!
