Review of Canon A95 Digi Cam

Ok this is my personal review of A95. Ok one more point, I am no expert photographer ... just a happy go lucky one.





1. Real value for money
2. Good basic camera for the happy go lucky photographer who isn't too much interested in all the various settings...most stuff is automatic. The different shooting modes are great. Manual configuration is possible, I didn't try it though.
3. Has a 3x optical zoom, good for casual photography.
4. The 5 megapixel is more than enough for high resolution 4x6 photos, for larger prints also its pretty good.
5. The red eye reduction is bad ...horrible ... seems like a generic problem with A75, 85, 95 ... some pics look real ghostly.
6. Night shots are bad... the pics are hazy. You have to take the pic in night mode else there is almost 95% chance that u will screw up the image ...assumption is u r a casual photographer
7. The camera is quite small, can be easily carried around.
8. The LCD screen is rotatble and this is great feature. It allows you to take pictures at very awkward angles easily.
9. The camera runs on four A2 batteries. This is another plus point as A2 batteries are easily available in India. So if you run out of charge, you can just buy the batteries.

The pictures could be hazy because you shake your hand when taking the snap. I've used this model myself and it gives me excellent night shots.. If that is not the case I would suggest you show your camera to a Canon dealer and get it checked up.
