Fabulous !!

Date of Review:  Dec 21, 2008
The Bottom Line: This is an incredible value. Buy one for each of your family members! :)
Review: I am immensely impressed with this camera. I took about 3000 photos with this thing on a recent vacation and all but a few dozen came out incredibly sharp and in focus despite the fact that most were shot one handed from a moving van, bus, or boat...

PowerShot A590 - Delivers As Promised!

Date of Review:  Sep 11, 2008
The Bottom Line: Excellent digicam choice with image quality and features that are difficult to beat in this price range. It's hard not to recommend a great product offering like this.
Review: Introduction

Let me start by providing some background on my experience with digital cameras. I bought my first 1.3 Megapixel digicam back in 1999 for $219.99 when digital cameras were just starting to gain popularity in the marketplace. It...

Great little camera if it was built better!

Date of Review:  May 17, 2009
The Bottom Line: Great little camera, good image quality, plenty manual controls, but very fragile, you will need to take extremly good care for it to last.
Review: The Powershot A590 IS is an inexpensive little camera that packs a lot of features and a lot of image quality for only $130. It will be hard to find another $130 camera that can match the image quality details, all the manual controls, and all the...

Versatile for basic use

Date of Review:  Sep 6, 2008
Review: Good quality images for a low price. A little bulkier than the ultra-slim types, but you get both a cost and quality advantage. Takes normal AA batteries which is great. The flash works well but takes a few extra seconds to cycle. Not as bad as it...

Yet another WONDERFUL Canon Camera!

Date of Review:  Jun 13, 2008
The Bottom Line: I would recommend this camera for anyone who wants something they can easily "grow into". You'll never be bored. Great for photo enthusiasts.
Review: I've never been disappointed with Canon cameras. Though this is my first, my friends have long been fans and since my Fujifilm conked out on me- I figured "Why not?"

Once my old camera died I was sure that a Canon would be the only option...
