Summary: Perfect replacement for broken one
Comment: The battery access door on the original Canon PowerShot A95 broke, and we could not find anyone to repair it, so were pleased to find one for sale. It arrived in perfect condition, and has replaced the original. We already had a large memory card for it, so the in-between one that it came with became the backup, and we have some duplicate accessories (strap, etc.), but otherwise this was a good solution.

Summary: Great camera---but developed blurry display--however, Canon fixed it
Comment: I bought the Powershot A95 about 4 years ago as a replacement for another Canon camera which stopped working after about 18 months. What can I say--i like Canon cameras, so I bought the A95 and I've been very pleased with it.

About 2 weeks ago, I turned it on and the LCD monitor image was blurred---like a carnival house of mirrors. Pictures I took were also similarly blurred.

I immediately checked Amazon reviews to see if anyone else was having a problem, and came up with a very informative post by a reviewer who said to check this link...

http://www.usa.canon.com/consumer/controller?act=PgComSmModDisplayAct&fcategoryid=221&modelid=10468&keycode=2112&id=48264

I did, and the symptoms seem to match mine, so I called Canon support and after going through a couple of easy tests, the representative told me to send the camera into Canon to have them check it out. They provided me with a postage paid UPS label---all I had to do was remove the accessories (batteries, camera card, strap) and take it to a UPS store.

After only about 1 week, I received an email yesterday indicating that the problem does indeed seem related to a known controller problem, and that Canon is fixing it and should ship it in about 7 business days.

The bottom line is that the camera worked very well for 4 years, stopped working, and that Canon is fixing it at their expense due to a controller problem.

The camera gets 5 stars, Canon support also gets 5 stars.

Summary: Great value - takes fabulous photos - easy to use
Comment: I bought this camera to use on trips and throw in my purse when I wasn't willing to take my larger Canon EOS. I've been extremely happy with the ease of use and the quality of photos. I specifically bought it due to the optical zoom and size and have been pleased with all aspects. It's held up well after several international trips and a bit of abuse from my son.

Summary: Canon A95 Powershot
Comment: Actually this is my second A95. My first one which I bought 2004 did not disappoint me. This camera is so good especially when I use it underwater with its canon underwater casing. It's like a semi dslr camera that lets you adjust your own settings. Check the link below of the photo I took underwater.
