As you can see from the crops above, the PowerShot A3500 IS can produce sharp hand-held results at speeds as slow as 1/10. That’s nearly four stops slower than conventional wisdom says you should attempt, so it’s pretty effective.

In the right conditions, Digital IS can be a useful tool, but in some circumstances, like the one above, you might just be better off in Program or even Smart Auto mode. The1600 ISO crop above is noisier than the Digtial IS crop, but it’s no less sharp and uses the sensor’s full 16 Megapixel resolution. Finally, it’s worth noting that, unlike Intelligent IS on the PowerShot A2600, Digital IS doesn’t provide the flexibility of working in whatever shooting mode you choose and it won’t help keep things steady when you’re shooting movies.

The rationalisation of the Powershot A range around the same sensor, processor and, for the most part, the same 5x zoom lens means they all effectively deliver the same image quality and performance and it’s features like stabilisation, Wifi and screen size that set them apart. Above it, the PowerShot A2600 is identical but with a larger 3 inch LCD screen, and above that, the PowerShot A3500 IS adds an optically stabilised lens and built-in Wifi. cleanseCookie: typeof mcxPresetParam.cleanseCookie === 'boolean' ? mcxPresetParam.cleanseCookie : false,

It also shares the A2600’s 720p, video mode and, as on that model, you can now use the optical zoom during movie recording, Previously you could only operate the digital zoom during movie recording, which resulted in a big drop in quality. One further up in the range, the PowerShot A3500 IS adds digital image stabilisation (hence the IS suffix), built-in Wifi and location tagging of images via a GPS-equipped smartphone. Unlike the other models in the range, the A3500 IS isn’t available in the U.S.Switch out of Auto mode and you have the choice of Program mode with control over ISO sensitivity, Exposure compensation, White Balance, and image size among other things. Novice shooters might feel more comfortable with Live View control, which provides three sliders for control of exposure compensation (Dark/Light), saturation (Neutral/Vivid) and white balance (Cool/Warm).

It has a capable 5x zoom and, in the absence of optical image stabilisation, Digital IS is the next best thing.

None of the earlier A series PowerShots had an optical zoom that worked during movie recording, but you can use the zoom on both the A3500 IS and A2600 while recording. I didn’t test the A2500 or the A1400, but I would imagine the same applies to them. All A Series PowerShots have built-in mono mics.
