Description

 

The A735 is big on features and value, but comes in a slim, trim casing. Its 25mm body contains a 3x optical zoom, 4.5x digital zoom and a 2.5" LCD screen as well as a host of advanced features such as smile detection, blink detection, face detection and in-camera panorama stitching.

diagram

Megapixels:
A megapixel (one million pixels) is a unit of image-sensing capacity in a digital camera. A pixel - shorthand for "picture element" - is the basic unit of programmable color on a computer display or in a computer image. In general, the more megapixels in a camera, the better the resolution when making larger prints.

diagram

Optical Zoom:
When the button is pushed to zoom in or out, physical lens elements move inside the camera to achieve the desired effect. Optical zoom lenses actually "move" you closer to the subject of the photograph. The higher the optical zoom rating on a camera, the farther away you can be to take a photograph and still get a clear, close-up image.

diagram

LCD Screen:
Digital cameras use the LCD screen as a viewfinder by providing a live video feed of the scene to be captured. The LCDs normally measure between 1.5" and 2.5" diagonally (our LCDs measure 2.5 to 3 inches).

Standard on many of our cameras, Auto Adjust Brightness automatically adjusts the camera's LCD viewing screen to the existing lighting conditions. No more struggling to see the LCD in bright sunlight; the camera will adjust it so you can frame your picture properly.

diagram

Image Stabilisation:
Image Stabilization automatically overcomes shaking or blurring caused by accidental hand movement, helping you take clearer, sharper pictures.

diagram

Face Detection
The camera detects faces in a scene and then automatically focuses and optimizes exposure for them. This technology helps when taking pictures of large groups, when a person is in the distance or when the subject moves into the frame.

diagram

Smile:
The camera's sensor detects when subjects are smiling and releases the shutter automatically when the smiles reach their peek. No more battling shutter lag times to get the perfect picture.

diagram

Blink Detection:
If subjects blink as a photo is snapped, the camera alerts the user afterwards. This allows the photo to be immediately retaken.

diagram

High ISO
ISO denotes how sensitive the image sensor is to the amount of light present. The higher the ISO, the more sensitive the image sensor, which means improved ability to take pictures in low-light situations.

diagram

In-Camera Panorama Stitching
Allows for the creation of ultra-wide panoramic shots. Wide-view photos are produced by stitching three images into a single panoramic picture, providing an image that is wider than would be possible with a standard lens.

Bought this camera as a cheap one that i could throw in my rucksack when mountainbiking etc. Read the other reviews and thought i was going to get a cheap camera that took OK pictures, but i was wrong. This weekend i took about 30 photos, of which about half went straight in the bin when i loaded then onto the computer. This camera has serious exposure issues and i would describe the focusing as 'random'. Dont know if my camera is just the runt of the litter, but i wouldnt recommend this model. Wish i had spent another £20 and got a make with a bit of a better reputation.

A nice camera - when it works! This model has a known fault (shame I did not know it before I bought it) that causes the camera to display 'Warning, battery exhausted'. My advice, avoid, I am sending the second one back tomorrow.

Just a tip.. when reading camera reviews I think many potential buyers ponder:

Colour accuracy and saturation
Purple fringing and blurry/dark corners or barreling in pics
Sharpness of pictures
Range of flash
Severity of noise (blotchiness) in poorly lit situations without flash
Performance: how fast it can (re-)take pictures

as well as ease of use and battery life which has been covered.

I can't see the point of so-called blink detection if all it does is flag the bad picture you've already taken as blinking awful. You could just look for yourself.

Features of this camera look fine and low megapixel count encouraging (search 'megapixel myth') but I'm still wondering how the resulting pictures compare.
