for the nonchalant

After receiving a gift certificate at work, I did a lot of research on available cameras. The Canon Powershots had a great rating on another web site, so I went to store to check them out. I have very large hands for a woman, so I was very concerned about the size of the small digital cameras, and if I would be able to use one comfortably. This camera rocks! It is so easy to use! I'm not a beginner, but if I were, I could still use this camera the first time out. I love the flexibility of the screen and the transfer to e-mail is flawless. Buy a card scanner though...makes it much safer for the camera. Crisp, clean shots and small enough to drop in a jacket pocket...vacation heaven. Get extra media cards...the A95 gives you a few less pictures for the space, but the quality is worth it.



Down side? The cover on the media card doesn't feel sturdy. You will need to be careful opening it. Still trying to find where to get an attachment lens at a good price. (yes, you can add on just like an SLR) Also, would have been nice if rechargeable batteries were included. You'll want them if you shoot a lot at one time. Actually, there are almost too many options on the A95. Unbelievable how much you can do with it for this price.



Very good looking camera, very easy to hold and use, great advanced features for someone past the beginner stage and after using it for a month, I am very pleased with it!

We just got these cameras in the store and they are amazing. Everyone enjoys the LCD screen on the back. Instead of the typical fixed LCD it has a swivel one much like your Camcorder. It pops out so you can have it hang to the side, or you can flip it over to take pictures of yourself and your family if you don't have a cameraman handy. It can also flip back into the body to function just like previous LCD screens. Amazing innovation in digital camera's. Overall nice camera from Canon.
