A “Very Nice Canon Powershot A720 8MP Digital Camera” 2018
I've written a photo essay about my experience which is too long to include in this space (but I can provide it if requested). In short, the product is great, just as described, The camera arrived with a dead lithium battery which powers the Date/Time indicator, but once I determined that that was the problem, I inserted the one from my old camera and it worked fine. The Canon A720 IS is a wonderful camera (I've now owned three) and it is a fantastic value. My main reason for preferring it is that it has a viewfinder (among other superior features, e.g., 6X zoom, 8 MP) which is not available in other cameras in this price range ($200 when I bought it new 10 or more years ago; $350 in the US now). I've used the Canon A720 IS for over 10 years and it performs great as a point and shoot camera. I used to use several SLR Nikons and many Nikon lenses but found I just didn't use the lenses. I find the Canon A720 IS does everything I want it to do and it does it well.
