 Good Camera for the price June 24, 2009
Gilbert Turk (Boston - USA)
This is my 3rd Canon PowerShot camera. I used to have the A720 before this one. The A590 IS takes nice pictures, however the battery life is too short and when using the flash light, you have to wait few seconds before you can take another picture. It seems to be an issue for all powershot cameras. When using the video, my previous camera used to display the remaining time left. On this one, there is no way to tell if this is 2mns or 10 mns movie. The speaker is also in a wrong spot, where you grab the camera. Most of the time, you put your finger on it.
Other than that it's a good camera.
 Terrible in the rain! June 23, 2009

I will make this simple and quick.
I love this camera for its photographic qualities, great videos with the extra memory,etc.
But take this thing out in the rain and take photos, and it will be ruined! It was not raining heavy, but condensation became apparent inside of the LCD screen, thusly no more working camera became a fact in my case.
I have just ordered the Canon Power Shot D10 Waterproof camera.
 The reviews were right June 21, 2009

I bought this Dec. 08, after reading through the Amazon reviews. This was taken on a 2 week cruise and took really nice pictures and videos. The price is right also.
Easy to use June 18, 2009

This is a super easy to use point-and-shoot camera. I love Canon products. My first digital was the Canon A400 with the IP3000 printer. I was amazed at the quality of the printed pictures. Unfortunately, my husband lost my A400 on a hunting trip. Surprisingly, the A590 pictures don't seem quite as vibrant. Overall, the pictures are great,especially compared to the Kodak cameras in the same price range. I definitely appreciate the zoom on the A590 compared to my old A400. I highly recommend this camera for beginners. It's pretty much fool-proof, and I'm very happy with it.
Great compact camera June 12, 2009
T. Stevens
This camera packs a lot of featues and quality into a relatively small package. I'm glad I got it.
