 Computer Shopper: MacUser Reviews: Canon PowerShot A85
Canon's PowerShot A85 is the successor to the PowerShot A70, which carried off a MacUser Award last year, so the A85 has a lot to live up to.
However, the quality of the images produced by the A85 was superb: skin tones were spot on and the automatic exposure coped well in a wide range of situations.
Night-time photographs captured by the A85 were excellent, with the small yet powerful flash coping with the darkest of scenes.

 Digital Cameras - Canon PowerShot A85 Digital Camera Test Images
The A85 has a tendency to produced slightly high image noise on average, with some noise visible even at ISO 50.
The A85 though, is an interesting example of a situation in which less than perfectly accurate color actually ends up looking very good to the eye: The analytical results from Imatest show that the cyan colors are hue-shifted significantly toward the blues, and that some of the blues are shifted a bit away from purple.
Optical distortion on the A85 is about average at the wide-angle end, where I measured an approximate 0.8 percent barrel distortion.

 Stereophile: Arcam DiVA A85 integrated amplifier
The A85 made me quite conscious of the spaces between, the otherness of the music—not as some vague, inky backdrop against which sound was being projected, but as three-dimensional sources set in a lustrous, resonant, pulsating acoustic space.
With ample reserves of power for a room of small to medium size, the A85 maintained its balanced resolution even at lower volume levels, giving up the ghost only when pushed to the outer reaches of its power output, where this DiVA retained coherence at the cost of a certain upper-midrange hoarseness and strain.
And not only will the A85 happily drive a wide range of speakers, but with its cost-effective P85 biamping option, your system won't run out of gas should you, somewhere down the line, desire more slam—or decide to take the plunge into more demanding full-range loudspeakers in a bigger space.

The A85 integrated amplifier incorporates microprocessor control and dot matrix fluorescent display similar to that of the older Alpha 10 amplifier.
The A85 is rated at 85 watts into 8 ohms with both channels driven, and 140 watts in 4 ohms for one channel.
I often find that audio electronics can homogenise the lower frequencies to a greater or lesser extent, so I was pleased that the A85 enabled me to "listen in" to the orchestral cellos and double basses.

 Digital Cameras - Canon PowerShot A85 Digital Camera Review, Information, Specifications
The major change between the A75 (the previous update) and Canon A85 is a higher resolution sensor, moving from 3.3 to 4.0.

The A85 also features a 10-second self-timer, which delays the shutter for about 10 seconds after the Shutter button is pressed, letting you run around and jump into the shot.
