Pros: 1.8" LCD Flip Out, Scene Shot, Manual Control, Nimh battery, 5 mp

Cons: More Noise, purple fringing

This time I give 4 to Canon A95, I was hope this model will be much better upgrade from A80 (I had A80 also, see my review). To be honest, I'm little bit unhappy with Canon how they make this model, why? A95 body look cheaper than A80 body that h...as nice shape and look elegant. Both has the same shape but you will able to tell that A80 body better than A95, specially the lens ring.A95 has a few upgrade than A80, with 1.8" the lcd flip out bigger than A80 give you more view before you take the scene. Scene, new mode for A95, it was for A75 only, but now A95 has too, give you an easy control to take automatic pic, so as Point & Shot camera Canon really smart to add this feature in A95 (nice upgrade from A80). Everything else will be the same with A80 features.For the size of lens but more megapixel than A80, A95 picture little bit noise, at iso 200 A80 noise is acceptable, but you will notice more noise at this iso in A95. Purple fringing still problem for Canon in A model.The weight little bit light than A80. Battery life is longer and being trademark for Canon than another brand. With Custom White Balance (same as A80), A95 will give a filter color and very usefull to make a good picture (save money for not buying any filter lens).If you are looking an upgrade for A80, nothing much you can have from this model except the bigger lcd and scene shot. If you new and want to have P&S camera that has manual control and good quality picture, I will say grab this model and you will happy to have A95. Read more Less
