About the product.

Canon's PowerShot A460 is a pocket point-and-shoot from the early digital years, when a 5-megapixel sensor and a 4x zoom were the entry-level standard. It arrived in 2007 as part of the budget A-series and was built for simple, auto-driven snapshots. It runs on two AA cells rather than a proprietary pack, so it can be powered almost anywhere. This is a Canon PowerShot A460 supplied with an SD card, ready for a quick photo walk or a nostalgic digicam session.
