Review: Powershot A2500 - i bought the powershot for a class reunion weekend and it excelled! it gave me several hundred of the nicest photos i've ever taken and i cant wait to take it out and take some more photos! a couple videos too that also was very easy to do. what i really like about the powershot is you can SEE the photos right as you take it, so say one was blurry due to new user error. it shows you the photo and you can say right away " nope try again" that was VERY handy along with showing people thier photos in case they wanted a try #2. same with erasing very easy. before i bought this i knew nothing about Digital cameras, the last one i had was a film camera ten years ago. so this was my first digital camera purchase, and what a brilliant purchase it was, the desertcart reviews and basic instructions were enough to know what i need and how use it, you must have a photo memory card ( not sent with the camera so when it says do you want the package YES you do!) and you must charge the battery beforehand and check it, if you are away from home make sure you take the battery charger and if you've used it alot check the battery i forgot to do that and the third night i couldnt take photos. it warned me.. i just thought.. nah.. it will be okay. ( nope but once it charged it was fine) but not only was it easy for me to take clear wonderful photos of my reunion weekend, it was easy for my friends taking photos with it too to just use it as well. the automatic sensing flash was nice too. the digital uploads of the photos ( with separate purchase of the cable) also could not have been easier. i also liked the little bag that came with the package. it had a nice belt clip. also if i didnt have a belt loop it was very easy to tuck in my pocket and not have to schlump a large camera and case along. it was dropped by accident on a hardwood floor and kept on going with no problems. everybody went oh no! and i was like nope! its good! say cheese! the price couldnt have been nicer also.. very pleased with my new Canon Powershot!
Review: Overall fantastic, with one aggravating flaw - We purchased this for our 10-year-old daughter and have been mostly very happy with this camera. It's compact, takes decent photos and is easy to use. The red is nice, and helps us distinguish this camera easily from our other, older silver Canon. I do have one beef, and for our family it's significant: Our other camera was MIA because of a recent house move, so we took this with us as our "beach camera" for our vacation. Today I downloaded the 300 or so photos and discovered that the date stamp feature was on. Every photo has a prominent, bright yellow/orange date stamp in the corner. Apparently, there is no way to remove this once the photo has been taken, so we will have to crop the stamp out or carefully photoshop it out of any photos we want to use without it -- which would be every good photo coming out the entire batch. According to the manual and every online resource we can find, these are the only ways to remove the stamp. We often use photos from our vacation for holiday cards and a photo calendar for family members. I am really frustrated that some beautiful shots are marred by this obnoxious stamp. We are pretty certain that the factory default may be for the date stamp to be on because we don't remember setting it and have never used this feature on any of the half dozen digital cameras we've owned -- precisely because we find the stamps to be unnecessary and ugly. The image display when you take the photo doesn't show the stamp, though it does show on the image review. Honestly, I didn't really notice it on the tiny display and even when I did, I didn't think it would be permanently integrated into the file.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: does this camera work with windows8?**
A: Yes, I have Windows 8.1 Update.  The memory card can be removed from the camera and then inserted into my laptop's card reader.  It can also be connected using a mini USB cable and Windows detected the camera.

**Q: Are pictures easy to upload to a computer?**
A: The camera gives you two ways to upload pictures. You can either take out the SD card or you can plug the wire in while the camera is on (if you are given one with purchase--I was not). A directory will pop up for the second option and you just click on how you want to access the content. It only take 2-3 clicks. The faster way is to just take out the card, but if you want to be safe about breaking the card, then plug it in to your computer. Both options are fast either way, like most cameras.

**Q: can you recharge it?**
A: The camera comes with a lithium ion battery and a wall charger. The battery fits directly into the compact charger and the whole unit plugs into a wall socket. The battery seems to last well and charging generally does not take much time.  There are lights in the charger to let you know when the battery is ready and the unit will stop charging when the battery is full so as not to burn it out.

**Q: What is recovery time between shots?**
A: I don't know what that means, recovery time, my best guess what you want to know is how long do you have to wait until you can take another picture and not sure on the exact amount of time, but it's longer than I like (I have a 3 year old) but not as long as my old camera. I'm sure there is a way to set it on fast or multiple picture taking, just haven't figured that out yet.  My best guess is at least 30 seconds. Hope that answers your question.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great budget camera for travel
*by I***Z on January 2, 2024*

I wanted a low budget camera with great megapixels and high resolution, and i found this one. It offers a lot of options for many scenarios and is very easy to use, even my child was able to take good pictures. Small enough to put it in the pocket and travel with no issues.
