  Great camera August 18, 2008 I really like the way the screen orients to the direction you took the shot. This camera is easy to use and takes beautiful pictures. It's amazing how much cameras have improved and prices have fallen. Hurrah for the march of technology. Now everyone can take nice snapshots of friends, family and vacations.
  Great camera August 18, 2008 Great Camera! I'm very pleased with pictures, both still and mini-movies. Price was very right.
  Canon PowerShot A590IS August 17, 2008 I recently purchased this camera for my personal use for such activities as parties, friends and random pictures. Up to this day it has still impressed me and i would recommend it to anyone. Its use requires little knowledge of technology I mean practically anyone can use it. It has a great zoom and also its build in speaker is not surround sound quality but at least it has one and you can hear practically anything.
  Great camera if a balance of quality, features and budget is needed August 17, 2008 With a limited budget, my objective in upgrading from an aged digital camera was to buy something with high picture quality for personal use, proven reliablility, simple to use, and with all standard features. A friend recommended the Canon PowerShot and after researching models and reviews, the A590IS was the right mix of price, features and quality. In practice, it has lived up to my expectations: very easy to start using, quality pictures, and I have found the user manual clear as I've explored the camera's multiple features and options.
My only note for future buyers is to factor into your budget the cost of adding a memory card. The 32 meg card that came with the package was OK to learn with, but not sufficient for use; I added a 16 gig memory which cost around $50.
  A camera you won't regret August 17, 2008 Gives you high quality photos and at the same time at a fare price. Really good for entry-level people like me. I even posted some amateur photos for you to view. Just play around with the settings and you'll get good pics and you'll get better shots than me. The only thing that's not good is the battery life. I suggest you buy rechargeable batteries. Overall excellent camera for everyone!
