One of the latest editions to the Canon family is the 4-megapixel Canon PowerShot A520. This nice little camera is smaller and lighter than the PowerShot A85 that came before it. By adding a longer zoom lens and additional new scene modes, this camera is nicely equipped.

Those both experienced and new to photography will be pleased with what the Canon PowerShot A520 has to offer. What’s even tougher to beat than this camera’s features is its great value-for-money appeal making it a camera to consider if in the market for a camera purchase.

Other than the size, the only other noticeable design differences are that the AF assist lamp on the front has moved to the opposite side of the viewfinder and you may notice the microphone has shifted.

The LCD is still the same 1.8 inches diagonally but does have some differences. The LCD is now an f/2.6 to f/5.5, 5.8- to 23.2-mm (35- to 140-mm, 35-mm equivalent), 4X optical zoom lens.

More about the A520 on Wednesday.
