Hi everyone, since there's no thread on Canon Powershot A620, so I started it... If there's any inquires or request for help on this camera, can post it on here too... I'm also a newbie in photography, so let's help each other out together, thank you...

In August 2005 Canon announced two new A series digital cameras, the five megapixel A610 and seven megapixel A620 on test here. Both cameras replace the long-running, and very popular A95, and join the A520 as affordable, well-specified compacts for the enthusiast user on a budget. The A620 certainly looks promising on paper; newly kitted out with the fast DIGIC II processor and a 2.0-inch vari-angle LCD, it has a wealth of shooting options and 4x optical zoom.

* DIGIC II processor
