Hello,

I have been reading up on the Specs and looking at the reviews & pictures of the A95 and S60
and trying to decided which is the better camera.
They are both about the same price ($380-$400) and are 5MP.
The A95 has the swivel LCD Display, a lot of shooting modes and used AA Batteries.
The S60 has a fixed LCD, a few less shooting modes, but has the 28mm wide lens and Li-Ion Battery.
However, from the reviews of the S60, the 28mm is said to have distortion around the edge of the image.

What I'd basically like to know is which camera is going to give you the better image for the money.
I am going from a Kodak 4100 APS camera that I've owned since APS first came out.
I like the fact that the A95 has a lot of shooting modes built-into it. However, I'm not afraid to
use Manual Modes if I need to. I need a camera that it going to last me 4-5 years without needing to
upgrade all the time.
At a local store, they only had the A75, and the salesman there was trying to sell me the Olympus C-50.
He said it was a 5MP and cost $320. I'm glad that I didn't buy it, because the user reviews of it are not to favorable.

Any help or suggestions between the two would be appreciated.
