My Review 

This is a good point and shoot camera. That is all it is. Contrary to advertisements, it does nothing more. Kind of like a digital Kodak Brownie. When I contacted Canon, they said to send them the camera and they would decide if not having any features was a reason to replace it. Out of the box, it was not doing what they say. Boy, that's some kind of "customer service."

If you want or need any "features," go elsewhere.

Sorry things didn't work better for you with the A2000, but I appreciate you being so honest about the camera's flaws!
