Canon PowerShot A95 Digital Camera

Pros: solidly built (not fragile); swivel LCD screen; movie feature; great quality prints
Cons: heavy, bulky, pricey (new), poor auto focus in low lighting

Bought this camera maybe 5 years ago now, and it's still tickin' along. I've dropped it so many times that the little strap holder finally broke off, but it STILL takes fabulous, easy pictures. Aside from the basic stats that you can get from any ...

Pros: Best Camera. Takes awesome pictures. Easy to record movie clips.
Cons: Not good for long run.

Exactly after two years, I have been getting the E18 error. Since my camera is past its warranty period, there's no way I can get this fixed. All these days, it has been excellent. Very handy, clear, faster shutter speed and a wide variety of modes ...

Pros: swivel lens, quick shot , 2.5" screen
Cons: none.

The swivel lens is an awesome feature. I can take pictures at angles that I usually would not think of or even be able to do, without it. If you are trying to get a shot of your cat or child crawling around, or if you are like taking head shots of ...

Pros: Still going strong four years later...
Cons: Resolution not holding up well...

After spending around six months scouring various digital camera reviews online and through magazines, I finally decided on the Canon Powershot A95 5 Megapixel camera as offering the perfect marriage of power and portability. My first digital camera, I ...

Pros: 10X lens can be twisted
Cons: OK button does not work OK

I got this camera as a new year's gift for myself one year ago. The things I like about this camera are: the lens is the best part of the camera - can be twisted 180' and is 10 X. I can still remember how clear and close looking the pictures I took of ...

Pros: Great pictures, long battery life, incredible macro and zoom, swivel design, easy to use.
Cons: No manual adjustments whatsoever.

Is this a good camera for the photography nut? Those who want a lot of control over their photos? How about those who take lots of indoor pictures of people? NO! This camera fails the above tests in my opinion. However, there is a particular ...

Pros: Long battery live; swivel lens; 10x optical zoom
Cons: Terrible shutter lag; LCD worthless in sunlight

I bought this mainly because of its 10x optical zoom, and because the older Canon I had needed an expensive new battery again. I also thought that the swiveling lens would be handy. Well, I did find the lens useful a couple of times when I wanted to ...

Pros: 10x Zoom Lens, Compact Body, Fun Photo Modes, 6MP sensor
Cons: Minor build quality issues, Poor Movie mode, NO Manual controls, ease of use issues

Strangely enough... despite all the digital cameras I've bought through the years, I still have the CoolPix 995 in my collection. I still use it every now and then... ya, really. The 995 was a pretty sturdy camera as well. I feel a tinge of guilt ...

Pros: small, sleek size, swivel lens, great low lit shots
Cons: crap lens cap, few hard buttons, offcentre directional button, blurry flash photos, not enough control

I didn't realise until I number-rated this camera on another site how disappointed I was with this camera. I've had 4 coolpixes now (all swivel lens) (the 2500, 4500, s4, and now the s10) and I think I liked the first 2, esp. the 4500, the best. ...

Pros: Great looking camera. Takes nice pictures.
Cons: Camera frustrates and hinders impromptu picture taking. Missing many features.

Initial Impressions Of the eight digital cameras I've had, this was the only one where the Mrs. said "wow!" upon seeing it. It's got a very nice finish and a very cool look to the camera. Externally, the only disappointment is in the very cheap ...

Pros: I'm sorry, but I really can't think of a pro for this camera.
Cons: heavy slow undependable known problems with CF cards expensive-what it does (when it works)

I was looking for a digital camera that would be dependable, semi-easy to use (for when my mom would want to take a few pictures) and would give me great photos. I already had an older sony digital camera, it was a freebie (amex points!) and I loved ...

Pros: swivel screen, easy to use, lots of features, sleek appearance
Cons: slow, bulky, internal engineering problems

FORGET ALL THE PRAISES EVERYONE SEEMS TO HAVE. ALL OF THAT DOESNT MATTER IF THE CAMERA DOESNT WORK. Look up E18 and Canon and you'll see what I mean. Thank God, I found out by just the standard 'low batteries' but this assembly problems lead to other ...

Pros: Excellent picture quality, articulated LCD, loaded with features, manual modes
Cons: Expensive, large and heavy, 4 AA batteries, noise at ISO 400, only 3x optical zoom

After using the 4 -Megapixel Canon PowerShot A520, I wanted to try the 5 -Megapixel Canon PowerShot A95. It so happened that my friend let me borrow hers. And now I can report ...

Pros: Easy to use. Compact. Good photo quality.
Cons: Slow shutter speed. Zooms in spurts.

I received this camera as a gift last week, but already played with it a bit. Took some great photos under good lighting, as well as not-such-good lighting and printed them at local Wal-Mart. I made some touch-ups, like adjusting the color and the ...

Pros: First class pictures. Comprehensive features that allow user creativity. Articulated LCD. Price.
Cons: AiAF a bit slow. Software average.

After reading a number of reviews of digicams around the £200 mark, I decided on the A95 due to it's impressive range of manual options and the reputation Canon have for quality. (This despite the "E18" scare)I wanted a camera I would be able to learn ...
