It’s a Canon Days special post on Raw Footage. This time I’ve gone down to the sales floor and picked up one of my top point-and-shoot picks for the season, the Canon PowerShot A2000 IS. Now, the A series of PowerShot digital cameras is the more practical end of Canon’s line-up, and the “A” of course designates the use of standard AAs for power, a feature which is still pretty popular among a lot of shooters. This particular model lets you use a nice combination of 6x optical zoom and 10 megapixels to record shots of whatever strikes you to the ubiquotous SD memory card.

Oh yeah, and the face-detection is pretty slick, too, but I’ll leave that for the video (also available on our Podcasts page).
