21 Aug, 2007, 2:30 pm IST | by Gagan Gupta | Point and Shoot

Canon U.S.A., Inc. recently announced two new PowerShot A-Series digital cameras, including one with the highest resolution in the series to-date - 12.1 megapixel PowerShot A650 IS and the 8 megapixel PowerShot A720 IS.

Both cameras maintain many of the features of this line, with improvements to better meet the needs of users who want a solid and smart point-and-shoot with user-friendly manual capabilities. These features make it good for an enthusiast looking for a full feature-set and imaging benefits, or a casual user looking for an easy-to-master point-and-shoot.


"By enhancing the PowerShot A650 IS and A720 IS digital cameras with advanced, yet user-friendly feature-sets, at a reduced price point, the A-series will continue to stand-out from the competition," said Yuichi Ishizuka, senior vice president and general manager, Consumer Imaging Group, Canon U.S.A.

The estimated selling prices of the PowerShot A650 IS digital camera and the PowerShot A720 IS digital camera models are $399.99 and $249.99, respectively. Both models are scheduled to be available in American stores in September. No news about their Indian launch yet.
