Canon Powershot A95 Review
|
Review Summary
Reader Score: 7.80 (out of 10)
The Canon PowerShot A95 is a fun, powerful 5-megapixel camera. Style-conscious point-and-shooters might want to look for something smaller, such as the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-T1, but if you go that route, be prepared to pay more for less. In addition to a host of features and manual controls, the A95 offers excellent image quality, making it a very good buy ($325 street).

| The PowerShot A95 is a worthy follow-up to the extremely popular A80. There wasn't much that needed improvement on the A80, and admittedly some of the changes are pretty unexciting. The most important changes are the higher resolution CCD and larger/sharper LCD display. So what I'm saying is that the A95 is even better than an already great camera. |

| The A95 is the successor to the popular A80. The most obvious improvement is the inclusion of a 5 megapixel CCD, which is suitable in most cases for prints as large as 8"x10". It features a 3X optical zoom, a 4.1X digital zoom, a larger 1.8" LCD for photo review, and an improved movie mode. The A95 will find itself at home with anyone interested in doing point-and-shoot photography with inklings to explore to the more creative side of photography. This camera will do well with families, travelers, as well as budding photographers who don't want to take the plunge into a more expensive SLR. |

| The PowerShot A95 is the newest camera to be released in Canon's A-series, and is a logical evolution from the A80, itself replaced by the A85. Equipped with a 5 megapixel CCD and a 3X optical zoom, the A95 is mostly distinguishable from the A80 by the name stenciled on the grip, and by the blue lettering indicating its resolution on the lower right of the camera's front. |

| Announced in August 2004, the PowerShot A95 replaces the hugely popular A80 at the top of Canon's entry-level range. Although it shares many features with the A80, the new model sports several significant improvements (including some also found on the A85), and in fact offers a feature set that compares well with considerably more expensive models, such as last year's PowerShot G5. The main changes are the sensor resolution (5MP) and a larger (1.8 inch) and considerably higher resolution (118,000 pixel) swing out LCD screen. Other improvements include an enhanced movie mode and a wider assortment of subject-based shooting modes. Let's have a quick look at the main selling points:

| The Canon PowerShot A95 is an entry-level digital camera introduced in August 2004. This camera succeeds the A80, which stocks a 3.9 megapixel CCD. The updated PowerShot A95 comes with 5 effective megapixels, a 38-114mm optical zoom lens and a large 1.8-inch LCD monitor for a suggested retail price of $399.95. The A95 has many pragmatic advantages to offer, including a reasonable price tag, manual control options, and rotating 1.8" LCD monitor as well as a host of automatic preset controls. The A95 does also contain a few strong deterrents, particularly in its lack of control over stray noise and inadequate movie mode. |

| The Canon PowerShot A95 is the latest in a long line of high-quality digicams from Canon. Canon U.S.A. has long been a strong contender in the film and digital camera markets, well-known for its high-quality optics, technical innovations, and aggressive product development. The 5.0-megapixel Canon A95 updates this extensive line by improving on an already well-received model, the 4.1-megapixel Canon PowerShot A80. The A80 previously occupied the high end of the PowerShot A-Series, and the new Canon A95 effectively takes its place. |
