Canon PowerShot A1300 Digital Camera Review

Speed and Timing

At full resolution, we clocked the A1300 at just over 0.7 frames per second, making it a very slow shooter by any standard. As ISO increases, performance will become slower and slower. But some helpful drive options aid this category: the self-timer is fully customizable, and there's even a Scene mode for face detection self-timer.

A valuable compromise would've been higher speed at lower resolutions, sadly the A1300 is just as slow at 0.3 megapixels. Too bad.
