 Awesome for the money !! November 21, 2008
I love this camera. I'm just a point and shooter but am having a great time learning how to use the more advanced features that this camera has to offer.
It takes great pics with the auto setting but I have been using the "P" program mode with the "my colors" set to vivid to get great pics of the fall foliage.
The video feature also works great and records sound as well.
You can spend thousands on a digicam but for the casual photographer like myself, this camera rocks. And at a price almost anyone can afford.
Oh yea, the macro feature on this camera is fun to play with getting great close up pics of things like flowers, close ups of abe's face on a five dollar bill, etc.....
The 32 MB card that comes with the camera can only take 8 pics at the highest resolution, so make sure you get at least a 1 gig card. The price of the SDHC (high capacity) cards at Amazon were so inexpensive that I bought a 4 gig Sandisk Ultra II card for an extra[...]
I also bought the genuine Canon carrying case for another [...]. It has a belt loop which makes it easy to carry around.
For the money, the Canon A590is is an awesome value. Highly recommended.

great November 18, 2008
its a great product and i love it and learning more options everytime that i use it
 good value for money November 17, 2008
very good value for money, this isn't the greatest camera on the market; but its price versus its capacities define a very good value ratio.
Canon wins again! November 17, 2008
I honestly really enjoy the Powershot A590IS. Although it's not a high-quality SLR, it's an awesome point-and-shoot with a ton of great manual features. I would highly recommend this for someone who is looking for a quality camera for everyday use.
It's light and relatively small. I do however, like the way it fits in your hand. It makes it easy to take one-handed photos. The features I like most about this camera, are the manual functions. I have an OK amount of photography knowledge and being able to adjust the aperture, shutter speed and flash is impressive. The Macro setting surprisingly takes very good quality close-up images.
You can also buy HD and wide-angle lenses for this camera, which ranks it above most point-and-shoot cameras. This is a great product, I would definitely recommend it!
Excelente producto, entrega inmediata November 17, 2008
