Canon A-85 specs
The Canon A-85 is not yet generally available in N. America, but appears to be
on sale in some other parts of the world. It is an "upgrade" for the A-75. From looking at Canon's Japan web site it seems that the ONLY difference between the two cameras is the 4 Mpixel CCD -- but same physical size. http://www.canon.co.jp/Imaging/psa85/overview-e.html (I am ignoring the increased DIGITAL zoom magnification of 3.6x). Surely there must be *something* else different! Anyone have any information on this? How do the prices compare? Roger
