Still having issues over purchase of this Canon A-480
I have gone through four of these cameras trying to get one that works properly. This sounds worse than it should. Actually, they all worked, but Canon's instruction manual is improperly written, and that made them seem defective. Even the Canon customer service representative concluded they were defective. Then I bought a fourth one from a second store, and theirs, unbeknownst to me, had the serial number ripped off the box and the camera. I must say this has been a very bad time-consuming too much time for purchasing what is otherwise a good little camera. My trust in Canon has been shaken. I am in the process of demanding Canon to provide me with a Serial Number and appropriate stickers. This sort of thing should not happen.
