Canon PowerShot A

The Canon PowerShot A is a series of digital cameras released by Canon. The A-series is Canon's budget line of cameras, although its feature set range encompasses low-end point-and-shoot cameras to high-end prosumer cameras capable of rivaling Canon's flagship G-series.

Models

The series began with the A5 series, which was a very basic point-and-shoot camera line. The Axx series that followed offered full manual control (on most models) in a fairly bulky body. The A100/200/3xx/4xx series cameras are stripped-down with very little manual controls. The Axx series has branched off into the A5xx (replaced by the A1xxx series), A6xx, and A7xx series (the latter replaced by the A2xxx series).

Remote capture capability from a computer over the USB interface is supported by the A30, A40, A60, A70, A75, A80, A85, A95, A300, A310, A400, A510, A520, A620, A640 models. More recent models generally do not support remote capture. [http://www.breezesys.com/PSRemote/features.htm#ps]
