Canon - PowerShot A530 Digital Camera —

Snap Snap Snap!!! There goes the pathalogical picture taker again...

Okay, I am back now! I love this camera, it is so easy and fun to use I am constantly taking pictures of my 3 kids and all their animals. This is a great way to keep the memories and still have the time to enjoy the moments. I am also the seriously addicted scrapbooker... this camera is great for taking along with me to all the fun places my kids love, it fits in my purse or coat pocket great and as long as I have extra batteries handy things are great!
It also allows you to take video! This is the perfcet solution for me as I don't want to carry any more gadgets than I already have (cell, palm, Ipod, camera...!)
The only downside is the batteries that it eats... rechargeables don't last long in this baby!
All around a great camera
