 Picture perfect October 4, 2008
Wet Thunder (Sausalito, CA)
So far, I have only used automatic setting. Some pictures have been postcard perfect without even trying. Transfer to PC very easy. I like the somewhat larger size, because I can get a good grip on it.
 A nice camera but .. October 4, 2008

First impression of the camera was very good (speed, sharpness, color rendition), but after short usage period the battery warning light came on. I started using rechargeable batteries, which I had from my old Cannon 610. This condition persisted, so I thought possibly new rechargeable batteries were in order. I bought the highest rated rechargeable NI-MH batteries available. They are 2700 MAH. But, after taking 15 pictures and downloading to a PC, the battery light came on and shortly thereafter the camera shut down. I considered this to be intolerable and sent the camera back. Did I just get a lemon? In my old Cannon 610, a battery charge lasted forever.

Anteriormente tenia otra Camara Digital CANON. Ya deseaba otro modelo un poco mas moderno que incluyera mas opciones. Siempre he preferido mayor calidad aunque eso no implique un tamano super pequeno.
Con esta camara he obtenido imagenes de insuperable calidad, y por el precio, es mejor aun! Estoy muy satisfecha con mi compra...
Wonderful Portable Camera October 2, 2008
Bobbie Filippides (Craig, CO)
I am still new to photography and digital cameras and I wanted something that would take good pictures but was not too hard to work with and settled on the A590IS,
It is exactly what I wanted, small and light with settings that I can just use without having to worry, plus having more options if I want.
The pictures are clear and look wonderful. It is a tremendous value and easily worth the price. Always make sure to get an extra card and carry some extra batteries just in case you find yourself taking more pictures than you planeed on, which is easy to do because this camera makes it so much fun.
A bit complicated October 2, 2008

This camera is a replacement for a 5 year old Kodak 2.0 megapixel that recently started becoming unreliable. The controls on the Kodak were few and simple to use and understand. While the Canon takes wonderful pictures, it has multiple features and controls and a rather difficult-to-understand menu. If I were a professional photographer I probably could make use of all these things, however, I'm just a vacation shooter and am overwhelmed by all the bling. Thankfully there is an "auto" mode that can be chosen that turns this equipment into a simple point-and-shoot device. The instruction manual is fairly easy to understand but some of the symbols used in the menu don't seem to make sense to me. For example, if you want to turn on the date stamp you have to scroll down to a letter L and then scroll left or right to chose date alone or date and time. Overall I like the camera and the way it fits my hand. It's just a little more complicated than what I'm used to.
