The new Powershot A95 When Consumers Speak -- Canon Listens

byHoward_Creech Sep 12, 2004
135 Helpfuls 136 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Larger LCD screen with enhanced resolution, loads of manual/creative photography options,...
Cons Some minor chromatic aberration (purple fringing) and very high noise levels at ISO 400
Recommended it? Yes

Canon's "A" series digital cameras have long been popular with consumers because of their incredible durability, exceptional creative capabilities, ease of use, and reasonable prices. The A80 was a virtually unchallenged "Best in Class" digicam that skunked its competition by stuffing many of the... Read full review »

Looking for a reliable digital camera?

Pros Price, Compact, Battery life, Excellent pictures, relatively easy to use..
Cons Shoddy movie clips, NiMH batteries don't come standard.
Recommended it? Yes

After having a horrible experience with the reliability of my HP PhotoSmart 435 digital camera, I decided it was time to shell out a bit more cash for a camera that not only had a better reliability record, but also offered better performance.

Nikon D5100 SLR digital camera 16 MP: A great SLR camera for the money

byyakkowarner Aug 29, 2011
61 Helpfuls 62 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Interchangeable lens, easy to use, lots of features, takes movies and photos, works ...
Cons Price, only 16 mega-pixels, no internal motor, only one control wheel instead of 2.
Recommended it? Yes

This is a 16 mega pixel SLR camera. You have the option to change lens, customize many setting, and you get higher quality pictures as an end product. It is also a faster camera than most point and shoot’s available. I do not have the lag between pressing the picture button and the camera... Read full review »

Best bang for the buck in APS-C DSLR cameras

byaloofyouth Dec 19, 2011
23 Helpfuls 24 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Best bang for the buck DSLR camera in its price/size bracket
Cons Flash lacks commander mode capability
Recommended it? Yes

My user experiences are marked in italics.

The Nikon D5100 is a DSLR camera ("digital single lens reflex" so what you see through the optical viewfinder or on the LCD screen is what you get in the photo; you are literally seeing through the lens, so there is no parallax error). I bought it... Read full review »
