    The versatile PowerShot A3000 IS makes Canon quality photo-taking easy and fun. Its slim, lightweight design and large screen means you can always keep it with you.

    Quality 10.0 Megapixel imaging
    The 10.0 Megapixel sensor captures every part of the scene in crisp, vivid detail. Make perfect prints up to A3 in size, or crop without sacrificing fine detail.

    4x optical zoom lens
    The 4x optical zoom lens is designed and manufactured by Canon to the high standards found throughout the Canon photographic range. An optical Image Stabilizer (IS) keeps images sharp by reducing the blur caused by camera shake.

    Clear and bright 6.7cm (2.7") LCD
    Comfortably frame, review and share your shots on the large, high-resolution 6.7cm (2.7") LCD screen.

    Effortless shooting
    Smart Auto mode uses intelligent Scene Detection Technology to evaluate the brightness, contrast, distance, required flash exposure and overall hue of a subject – then selects optimum shooting settings. Easy mode disables all but the essential controls, and reduces on-screen icons for total ease-of-use.

    Motion Detection Technology
    Canon’s blur-beating Motion Detection Technology ascertains movement of both camera and subject. The optimal ISO level is then automatically set, to minimise blur and maximise image quality.

    Face Detection Technology
    A suite of Face Detection technologies detects multiple faces in a scene and adjusts focus, exposure, flash settings and white balance – for optimal results with natural-looking skin tones. FaceSelf-Timer makes group photos easy; taking a shot after an extra face enters the frame. Auto Red-Eye Correction identifies and removes the red-eye effect that can occur when shooting with flash.

Canon's PowerShot A3000 IS may be a simple point-and-shoot compact digital camera, but it has one magnificent trait: it can take very clear images. Indeed, despite its simplicity you won't be disappointed with the fine detail this camera can capture; you'll be able to crop your images closely without making them look awful. However, while its image quality is impressive, its design could use some refinement. The A3000 shoots clear images and its colour reproduction is not overly rich.PowerSh...
