Canon PowerShot A1300 Pro Reviews

PhotographyBLOG‘s review Edit

Despite it's unassuming exterior, the Canon PowerShot A1300 is one of the most interesting happy snapper compacts we've seen of late. It has all the usual features that you'd expect on a sub-£100 camera, easy to use layout, large buttons, a Help guide and AA battery compatibility. However, you can take pictures on the A1300 using an optical viewfinder. You can physically hold the camera up to your eye like on an old fashioned camera. Like you're some kind of caveman. Maybe you think we're over-reacting. After all, cameras such as the PowerShot G15 still have an optical viewfinder. The point is that these died out on budget cameras years ago but here's one now. For photographers, this is an interesting hark back to the glory days of yore.

ephotozine‘s review Edit

The A1300 is an easy to use, pocketable budget compact camera which even has an optical viewfinder. Images produced have excellent colour reproduction which will look great when sharing them on sites like Facebook. Detail isn't good enough for large prints, but there are a number of creative modes available to help you take unique pictures. The camera is also easy to use, with built-in help guides if you do get stuck.
