Advantages: Swivel/flip LCD, manual controls, accepts add-on lenses, optical viewfinder

Disadvantages: Slightly bulky, eats up regular batteries, 32MB card is too small

This camera is awesome. I upgraded from a Fuji camera and it was well worth the money. The Canon A95 uses 4 AA batteries, but it eats through normal alkalines way too fast.

The swivel screen is a major plus, it's 1.8" compared to 1.5" from the Canon A70. The screen is also higher resolution than the A70.

I have used the camera for 6 weeks and printed about 90 pictures so far. The pictures look great and I even cropped to zoom in on some pictures and you couldn't see any sign of pixelation. I love the manual flexibility with this camera, plus the automatic modes make it easy for anyone to use.

The camera has a nice solid feel to it and fits well in the hand. I prefer the Canon A95's size rather than the ultra compact cameras like Sony's T1 because you can easily hold the camera in one hand and take pics.

I highly recommend this camera to anyone looking into getting a 5MP camera that's affordable, flexible, and normal size.

Summary: Overall, great camera with just a few small faults.
