Canon PowerShot A2300 Point & Shoot Camera

I dint buy it from flipkart, as i had an urgent requirement. moreover the price is still at par with the shop where from i bought it. About the cam, i feel its a very good camera in this range. it gives original color, which lacks in the similar budget Nikon(yellowish) or Sony(redish) models. Macro is very very good comparing to other cam in this range. If you have passion in photography, you can start experimenting with "depth of field" with the macro option. here are some pros & cons:nnGood points:n1) 5x optical zoom.n2) Small and slim, light and sleek.n3) 16 Megapixel Sensor.n4) Very good macro in this range.n5) good quality picture, comparing to other models in this range.(dnt go for the quality reflected in the camera LCD, see in any laptop then you can feel the difference.n6) Good battery performancennBad points:nn1) No optical image stabilisation.(in a bit low light and with 3-5X zoom the images comes blur. but dnt worry it happened only where the light is low. in day light or using flash this will not pinch you) n2) Digital IS is not full resolution.n3) No optical zoom while in movie mode.n4) No pause button in movie mode(its very common.)n5) No Panorama moden6) Poor High ISO noise performance. nnnOverall: if ur budget is limited to 6-6.5/7 K, then its an awesome camera in this range. Highly recommended for the begginers. there will be a number of pros & cons in each models. But as you are picking up a camera your primary requirement should be whether it is giving a good quality pic or not? in this area its marvellous, even the video quality is in HD. Lacking of panorama mode is a serious drawback. but no model is perfect. Go for it.
