5 out of 5 stars A great camera for a great price   January 8, 2009
Thomas E. Smith-Hurt (Auburn, WA)
This camera does alot. Movies, close-ups (macros), 4x optical zoom, optical image stabilizer. I am still learning all of the features of this product. The easy-to-use dial control allows you to choose what kind of picture you want to take (night, night portrait, day portrait, landscape, fireworks, and others). The price was great for a name brand digital camera. I would recommend this product.


5 out of 5 stars Canon PowerShot A590IS   January 8, 2009
Calrebs (San Diego,CA)
This camera replaces an older Canon digital. I wanted a camera with no fancy settings and very easy to use in a small product. I liked the idea of this one using long lasting and cheaper Sanyo Eneloop AA batteries. I will not be printing or blowing up many if any pictures so this 8MP with 4X Zoom more than fits my needs. I primarily use this for E-bay and family shots that I store on discs. While I am still learning how to operate this camera, I do notice that the time it takes to shoot one picture after another does take a bit of time, several seconds. The quality seems to be good and I am happy so far.


5 out of 5 stars great and cheap   January 8, 2009
Jason Pollard (ca United States)
great camera for the average user that wants to take really good pictures, but not spend a thousand bux on a dslr.


5 out of 5 stars A great value   January 8, 2009
terpfan (Glen Burnie, MD USA)
We needed a camera after the several year old Nikon Coolpix died suddenly. Word of mouth on Canons was very good, good specs and the price is right. After using the camera for a month I have no negatives. Its very easy to use yet offers quite a bit of control over the exposure when you don't want auto exposure. Battery life is very good. This unit also has excellent macro capabilities. I like the fit and feel in the hand since I don't care for really thin and flat cameras. All in all you can't go wrong with the A590IS at the current price.
