I just purchased a Canon Powershot A80 in July and in August the A85 was released with a bigger screen and slightly more features for the exact same price. Did I get the short end of the stick? Or is there other reasons for sticking with my A80? Thanks.

Naw, man, A80's a good camera. Which A85/non-A80 features do you really want or need?

The 1.8 inch screen =( If it wasn't for that I wouldn't even care.

I don't think the A85 has an adjustable screen like the A80 though, so IMO the A80 still has an advantage in the screen department.

Wow, I didn't even realize that. Thanks for the tip! I feel much better now.
