Hi,

Ive read pretty much all the reveiws on the Canon A95, just wondering if
anyone out there is using it and what you think, before i buy one.

Thanks.

Depends what you want it for. If you want a point & shoot it's great. It
also has enough manual control if you want to go down that path. The flip
out screen is great. Some purple fringing and no indication that the
batteries are about to go out on you until they pretty much do so are
annoying. The movie function is pretty average. Otherwise is does what I
want it for really well.

I'm happy with my A95.  Takes good photos in auto, and great if
you use the presets, or manual controls.  (Though I'm no pro
photographer, but it's fine for our family happysnaps).

Flip screen, as mentioned by shane, is handy... I thought it was
more of a gimmick until I used it, but it really is very useful.
Make sure you have two sets of NiMH batteries, one charged, the
other in the camera, because, also backing up what shane said,
it gives very little warning! (About 5 shots - With one of my
sets, it gives NO warning, it just goes dead!)

Just a few shots I've taken are at

Nothing special, but gives an idea.  If you want to see
fullsize, non edited, straight outta the camera shots (at about
2.5 - 3mb each) then I can send them as well.
