Press Release
Keep the Canon A495 by your side to capture 10-megapixel snapshots of any photo opportunity that comes your way. Compose and review shots on the camera's LCD screen. The 3.3X optical zoom lens lets you take candid photos of your children across the backyard. And face detection locates the subjects in your pictures and focuses on them, giving you people-centric photos with realistic skin tones.
This camera makes it easy when you want to just "point and shoot." Switch to Smart Auto mode, and the camera automatically assesses your shooting conditions and adjusts settings. You'll get well-exposed photos — whether it's a sweeping mountain view or a group of children at a party.
