Canon PowerShot A300 3.2 Megapixel Camera (Approx. $199.00 - 225.00US)

The PowerShot A300 is an entry-level, 3.2 megapixel camera with an all-glass 33mm equivalent fixed focal length Canon lens and 5.1x digital zoom.

Alternatively, when the one-second slow shutter speed is combined with the camera's maximum aperture and optional ISO 400 setting, photos taken in low light conditions can be captured easily.

The A300 also incorporates a number of high-end features including the popular Photo Effects mode originally introduced in the highly advanced PowerShot G2 camera. A low sharpening mode has been added to the Vivid, Neutral, Sepia and Black-and-White modes for a total of five separate effects for greater creativity.
