Summary: Awsome Camara!
Comment: I recieved this camara 3 days after I bought it so the shipper was very quick and on top of it. I am giving this camara as a present so I haven't had much time to play with it, but from what I have experenced its a really great camara. It dosen't take forever for the camara to take pics and has about every option on it as a professional one from what I can tell. The only con is that is a little more bulky then what I thought it would be, so dosen't fit in your pocket very well but still a great buy!

Summary: Great camera and great price
Comment: I was looking for a solid, dependable point & shoot upgrade from my previous 8 MP digital camera, which blurred my shots too often. I need a camera that is easy to use, and takes good photos suitable for printing, thus the 8 MP minimum requirement. The A590IS turned out to be my choice for several reasons. The Canon reputation, Price, and available add-ons. This camera is selling for $185.00 at our local WalMart in Erie, Pennsylvania. One thing to note is the two Opteka lens made for this model, and sold here at Amazon.con. One Telephoto, and the other a wide angle lens. So if I decide one day to become more involved with photography, I can make some very inexpensive upgrades to this camera. Did I mention this camera has an "EASY" setting ? Yes ! When I don't have the time to show friends or family, that wants to use it, the features of this camera, I just set it to "easy" and hand it to them. The anti shake, image stabilization works great too. There are so many features on this camera, I'm still amazed at the price, and it's been lowered even more since my purchase in October 08. It fits my hands nicely, as it's not too small, but much smaller than a digital SLR. I also bought the PSC-85 Deluxe Case and its perfect match for this model even though the case is not advertised to fit this model. I would recommend this camera to anyone looking for a great point & shoot, at a great price.

Summary: Can't beat it for the price
Comment: Very satisfied, has all the stuff I need at a price point I am happy with. I'm not a pro, so this camera is perfect for me. The videos are amazing and the pictures are pretty darn good. You can't go wrong with the 590IS; check out the reviews on the net, all are impressed.

Summary: GREAT VALUE!
Comment: I bought two of these as gifts. One for a daughter and another for my son. This model of camera has received great acclaim from both magizine reviewers (PC World) and consumer buyers. That and a long standing good reputation of the Canon brand decided the purchase. As these are both Christmas gifts, the actual users of these cameras don't even have them out of the box yet. Based upon their actual use and experience of this camera later on, I'll add to or amend this review accordingly.
