The Powershot A590 IS - Canon's new P&S digicam value champ

Date of Review:  Mar 26, 2008

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.

wealth of features at a bargain price

Date of Review:  Aug 19, 2008
The Bottom Line: I'd recommended this camera because of its great value, features, and ease of use.
Review: I own several cameras (digital and film) and this is by far the most fun of all to use. The reason is quite simple; it's a small camera that is easy to use, and takes great pictures. It allows me to concentrate on taking pictures instead of worrying...

Non-photographic genius loves her Canon PowerShot A590 IS

Date of Review:  Jun 23, 2009
The Bottom Line: Buy this camera if you love to point and shoot but occasionally want to get creative.
Review: I am not an expert on cameras, and if you're looking for a review full of technical jargon and specifications, there are several very good ones for this camera so you should check them out. This review is written for people like me who usually like...

The Bottom Line: A great camera for casual users or for folks looking for more advanced settings. I recommend it!
Review: I purchased this camera about a month ago when my other digital camera (reviewed in my Epinions page) finally gave up the ghost. After reading reviews of cameras on Amazon.com, this particular camera stuck out for the features it had, with a...

Good camera for the family.

Date of Review:  Oct 14, 2009
The Bottom Line: I recommend the Cannon Power Shot A590 IS for the average person who wants a camera to record the precious moments in life.
Review: For my wife's birthday she asked for a new digital camera. I'm by no means made of money, but I came across the Cannon Power-shot A590 IS. For the $150 I paid the quality is outstanding. The 8 mega pixel resolution provides for attention to detail...

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...
