A rare misstep for Canon, the PowerShot A450 captures exceptionally accurate colours, but falls down in several other areas, resulting in less than crisp pictures.

Excellent colour reproduction

Extremely high levels of chromatic aberration, some noise issues

REVIEW — CANON POWERSHOT A450 ]

 

This is Canon's cheapest digital camera. It has a 5 megapixel sensor and a 38–122mm (film equivalent) zoom lens. It has a small (50mm) LCD screen and, surprisingly at this price, a useful optical viewfinder. The camera is chunky, a little larger than a...
