Like all Canons, the PictBridge standard enables any digital camera that supports PictBridge to connect and print to any PictBridge compatible printer. This is the first time Im not going to put a good word for a Canon camera. If youre an expert photographer with enough skill to shoot well enough to pick apart technical image quality, youre not likely to own this camera.
From CNET editors’ review: “For a camera with a maximum sensitivity of ISO 400, the A460’s images were awfully noisy. The automatic white balance produced a drastic yellow cast under our lab’s tungsten lights, though the tungsten preset proved very neutral, even more so than the manual white balance. We also noticed some purple fringing around bright highlights, and while the images weren’t the sharpest we’ve ever seen, they were on a par in that respect with other cameras in this price range.”
