It is a nice camera. I had used a friends 750 and liked it. I bought
the 995 right before the 4500 came out. I got a great deal on a
refurbished model though. One thing about it though is that the 750 had
some built in point and shoot mode presets for portraits, bright sun,
fireworks, etc. I would have liked those on the 995 for quick pictures.
The 995 does everything I want and more, it just makes me work a bit
harder to get it right.

Good info to know. I read that review before I bought the camera.
Guess I didn't pay attention to that part. I'll keep it in mind.
Thanks,
