Sony scores a winner with the A350 Digital SLR camera, but lens should be better.

Introduction

With prices starting to come down a little on the Sony A350, I decided to purchase a back-up body, this time with Sony's standard zoom kit lens. Most of this review is identical to my review of the Sony A350 body only, which is currently lost in the servers of the Epinions... Read full review »

Pros flip out view finder
Cons soft jpg in low light
Recommended it? Yes

The flip out live view finder on this versatile camera allows me to get the crazy angles that are my signature style. This is my favorite part of the camera, and is why I chose it over a comparable different brand.

The flexible ISO settings allow for great low-light shots! The ISO button is... Read full review »

Canon's A495 - Lean & Mean style

byHoward_Creech Jan 7, 2011
54 Helpfuls 55 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Cheap, very good pictures
Cons None at this price
Recommended it? Yes

The Canon Powershot A495 is a compact digicam available on-line for less than ninety dollars. What do buyers have to give up when they buy an A495?  The A495 doesn’t provide an optical viewfinder, relying instead on the 2.5 inch LCD for framing/composition, captured image review, and...

Low-cost, basic point-n-shoot camera with good video

bydenniskly Oct 4, 2010
17 Helpfuls 18 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Inexpensive, good pictures, easy to use, good video
Cons poor battery consumption,  too long to load flash for next shot, shuttle realease...
Recommended it? Yes

Although I already have a compact camera(Canon G11), it’s still too bulky to carry around, so, I look for a sub-compact camera that can be easily put into a pocket, a basic, no-frill, point-n-shoot and has to be cheap. After a long search I come up with a $99 Canon Powershot A495. I've been... Read full review »
