Taking Apart A Cannon PowerShot A60
Ok, so I had this camera for a long time. It lasted me for like 3 and a half years. It took wonderful pics, i took thousands of them, but the ...
I have a PowerShot A60 and I lost the directions on how to work it. Can I download the instructions?
Obviously I am a novice with digital camera and I need to find another copy of the operational instructions from the internet or where can I get it?
I found a link tro download the manual on canon's website:
I own a Powershot A60, I like it, but I cannot take pictures with any "depth of field".?
I own a Powershot A60, I love all the manual features it allows but I cannot take pictures with "depth of field". Do you know of a similar digital camera that would allow me to create this effect? Is there a way to know which cameras can do it?
Welcome to the in-focus world of small sensors combined with wide angle lenses!
I am not familiar with the A60. If it has a manual or aperture priority mode, you can try setting the aperture wide open (smallest number, like 2, or 2.8) Also, zoom as far telephoto as you can, and have the subject as far away from the background as possible. Or use macro mode if the subject is small enough and close enough for focus.
The reality is, digicams have an inherently great DOF, and there's not really much you can do about it.
Edit: Maybe I am mis-understanding your question. Do you want more DOF? If so, the answer above mine is correct. Somehow I assumed you wanted selective focus, with the subject sharp and the background out of focus. Either way, the aperture and distance from subject control the DOF.
Depth of field is affacted by the aperture size (the size of the opening behind the lens). The smaller the aperture is, the larger your depth of field will be. If you use a large aperture, the camera will take better pictures in low light, but the depth of field will be less. If you use a smaller aperture, the camera will need more light, but there will be greater depth of field. The most extreme example of this is a pinhole camera - it takes a long time to get an exposure, but everything is in focus, near and far.
Aperture is expressed in F-stops. The larger the F-stop value is, the smaller the aperture is. So, your aim is to have a large F-stop number, and then set the camera to use this number, and calculate the best exposure length so that the picture you get is bright enough with the small aperture.
To do this, use the little rotary switch on top of your A60 and turn it to "Av." This allows you to adjust the F-stop, and the camera will automatically set its exposure time. Set the F-stop to the highest it will go for the best depth of field.
To make it easier for the camera, try to get the objects you are taking pictures of as brightly lit as possible, or use a tripod. If you are trying to take moving objects in dim light, you will be out of luck here, you will need bright sunlight or something like that to ensure the small aperture will get a good exposure.
Now for my input. Depth of Field is a product of lens opening and lens focal length. A wide angle (10mm, 15mm) will give the most apparent DOF at almost any f-stop. A telephoto (or zoom at its longest focal length) will give the least DOF.
Here's an example: a 200mm lens focused on an object 8' away and set at f8 will have DOF from 7' 11" to 8' 1" - focusing here is critical.
A 24mm lens focused to 6' at f8 will have DOF from 3' 5" to 26' 9" *; focused at infinity at f8 the DOF will be from 7' 6" to infinity.
* Since objects in the background will be small they usually appear to be in focus from a normal viewing distance.
What's wrong...i own a PowerShot A60 [canon] camera and it takes pics but wont let me view them..Help Me?
I had already put the camera switch on "play" button but it still hasn't worked. If anyone out there has any experience please help me out and NO i do NOT need none of your SmaRt AsS comments. Thank you for anyone who cares
since u have reviewed every choice on your
camera; one of two options remains;
your matter is weak or the camera has
a bad circuit and you have no connection
between the view component and the
"taking" picture component.
when I turn on my camera--canon powershot A60--there are lines across the screen--can you help me?
it is a canon powershot A60
Lines across the screen can mean you've got dust caught in the LCD interface strip, which is a fragile ribbon attached to the camera's display board. It tells the camera screen what to display.
If the camera's still under warranty, you could take it for service. Otherwise, purchase a pressurised air spray from your local hardware store (these cost about $5), and spray under the edges of the screen. If the screen is sealed (no edges), try applying firm pressure to the top and bottom of the screen from left to right with your thumb. Be careful not to crack the case or screen.
If these steps don't work, and the lines bother you, you might need to purchase a new camera. But the good news is, technology gets better all the time, and cameras under $200 these days can produce great results.
Can I convert my Canon PowerShot A60 with 2.0 Mega Pixels to a webcamera?
Can I convert my Canon PowerShot A60 with 2.0 Mega Pixels to a webcamera? If so, how can I?
No.
i need to find the blue prints on PowerShot A60. Its a canon digital camera?
i am trying to find the blue prints to the camera so that i can put it back together cause i had to change the lense and i don't want to screw it up.
try the canon website, they may accidentally have the blue prints though I doubt it.
Canon PowerShot A60 rapair?
how or where can i fin the MAIN button on my Canon PowerShot A60 (the button that lets you take pictures with) its also missing a spring. how can i find another one of these?
Your best bet is to throw the camera away! I have a working Powershot A40 which should be around the same age as your A60 and parts are definitely extinct by now.
i have a powershot A60 and i took my memory card out and it will not work any more what do i do?
Moooooooooore info. ..
What no longer works? The camera? Or the memory card? Is the card full? Does it have to be formatted?
Usually the camera won't take photo if the memory card is not in place (that is a safety feature--so you won't keep taking photos that is not going to be recorded on anything).
Canon PowerShot A60?
I have a Cannon PowerShot A60 that won't take pictures anymore. At least they aren't visible. It looks like grainy things and nothing is visible. Anyone know what might be wrong?
My wife downloaded some pics off it last week when we went to Houston, but when we got there, boom! No pics taken. Any help would be appreciated.
Well, if it's not the CF card...then maybe the camera is starting to fail. It's 4 years old (and quite outdated at 2MP) and if the camera is having trouble recording a photo, it could be the sensor.
So, your best option, if that's the case, would be to upgrade to a newer model.
Canon have some very good models available that I wouldn't hesitate to recommend.
A newer model will give you better quality photos, much faster camera performance, better features, a larger LCD, a much better movie mode etc...
good luck
Canon Powershot A60 help???!!?
I have a canon powershot A60 and 2 days ago it was working totally fine, but all of a sudden, nthing appears on the LCD screen in all of the display settings. Is it broken or is it something in the settings?
Also, it appears to snap a picture, but the picture is all black as well.
I have that camera and I can't think of any setting that would cause that. Sorry.
On the bright side....You can get a new camera that's twice as good as that one for about half of what those cost a few years ago.
