Canon PowerShot A2500 Pro Reviews

The PowerShot A2600 is the mid-range option Canon's 2013 compact range. The rationalisation of the Powershot A range around the same sensor, processor and, for the most part, the same 5x zoom lens means they all effectively deliver the same image quality and performance and it's features like stabilisation, Wifi and screen size that set them apart. It's obviously great that you can rely on the same kind of quality from the A2500 as you can from the flagship PowerShot A4000 IS and even some of the lower end IXUS / ELPH models. But for a very small addiitonal outlay you can add features like optical image stabilisation, built-in Wifi and additional shooting modes. And with older models still in the PowerShot and IXUS ranges, you might even gain additional features like a touch screen and better video modes at a similar price. Models to look out for include the touch-screen PowerShot A3400 IS and the IXUS 125 / ELPH 110 HS with 1080p video and a higher resolution screen, or for a similar model at a lower price, the earlier PowerShot A2300. But if you're after a good budget PowerShot from the 2013 range, the A2500 is a solid option - no wonder it's one of the best sellers right now.
