Canon PowerShot A85
A 4.0-megapixel camera with manual controls and a 3x optical zoom.
The PowerShot A85 is a 4.0-megapixel digital camera featuring a 3x optical zoom and a range of manual controls, including aperture and shutter priority. It includes a 1.8-inch LCD and a dedicated mode dial for quick access to scene modes. The A85 is powered by four AA batteries, providing longer shooting sessions than two-cell models but resulting in a heavier body.
A critical issue to look for in this model is the Sony-manufactured CCD sensor failure, which results in distorted or blank images. SDS specifically tests for this known fault. Additionally, the four-battery compartment door is under significant spring tension; check for stress fractures in the plastic latch. We also verify that the lens leaf shutter opens fully when the camera is powered on.
