Buy the Canon A95. A friend just bought one and loves it, especiallly the
swing out screen. I have a Canon A60 (2 megapixel) and love it - easy to use, very sharp photos and no problems after 2 years. My next purchase will be the A95. Dan "Richard K Rabbat" wrote in message ... Which of these would you guy's recommend. Thank you Richard |

Hi Dan,
Thank you for your input, I went ahead and purchased the Canon A95 from Dell at a super good price. 261.00 shipped, essentialy 90.00 off the regular price... It is Bran new in box with all the accesories that come with it as they would from Canon. Richard "Daniel" dcxdan AT yahoo DOT com wrote in message ...

Which of these would you guy's recommend. Thank you Richard I like the look of the A95 i.e. price, CF and AA batteries. I would have liked a metal body but you can't have everything. Some reviews report that the CF slot cover on the A95 is flimsy. Also is the flip and twist screen sturdy enough, or will the ribbon cable fail during the service life of the camera? As a prospective purchaser I'd be interested in your opinions. Nick |

Dan,
How did you get the $261/shipped price!? Right now it comes up at $296 with the included 15% off. Is there a code that you are using in combination? Steve "Richard K Rabbat" wrote in message ...

Which of these would you guy's recommend. Thank you Richard While on holiday in 2004 in the US my old and trusted Epson 850Z died a death; it used AA batteries and Compactflash cards. Needless to say I looked for a similarly equipped camera in Fry's in Las Vegas, and was delighted to find the A95. It has some drawbacks; I'm not overimpressed with the Auto mode, and the rather flimsy CF card cover (which must be closed to operate the camera) worried me at first - but now I love it as much as the Epson. Since buying it, I have two friends who have bought the same. Try it - you'll enjoy it too! Only thing I would add is that if you buy non-Canon AA rechargeable batteries, get the most powerful ones that you can; I use 2350mA batteries. Less powerful just can't stand the pace! |
