We are interested in the Lastest model of Canon PowerShot A590IS 8MP Digital Camera with 4x Optical Image Stabilized Zoom I will think This Interesting ,and you can see that

BuZZ from Customer Shopping

Great camera, if only it had a timer4
This camera takes great pictures and is easy to operate. The only surprise came when I found it had no timer! I thought a timer was standard on all cameras, but apparently not.
Purchased from 17th Street Photo, via Amazon, the camera could have been shipped faster. It showed as being in stock, but it took 6 days (4 business days) before it was shipped.

Great #2 camera4
Last January, I bought a Canon PowerShot G-10 to be my new flagship camera (see my review for this product). I was so impressed with it, that when I was looking for a sidekick to this camera, I decided to stick with Canon, and bought a PowerShot A590IS (both cameras bought from Amazon). The A590IS is a pretty good camera with a good set of features and a menu and operation that are consistent with the G10. Its pictures are quite good, and I’m hard pressed to tell the difference in the pictures taken by both cameras. The camera is well built with a good quality plastic case, fits well in the hand and can be carried in a pocket. It may not be my #1 camera, but it’s a great little camera in its own right.

My fourth Canon Powershot4
The Powershot A4 (now A5) series is the only point-and-shoot digital I will ever buy. But it’s my 4th one in 4 years – that’s an average of 1 per year! My history, in brief:
- We bought a competitor’s camera, which broke in 8 months (zoom lens got off track), fixed it, then broke again 5 months later.
- We bought our first Powershot, then left it on the train. (Whoops!)
- Got another one, then dropped it on stone in the Kaibab Nat’l Forest in AZ (Whoops!) This one, however, was packaged with a Selphy photo printer (Bonus!)
- Got a third one, which had a bigger viewing screen and more megapixels, but then after dropping a few times, a screw came loose inside and shorted out the circuit board so it wouldn’t turn on – I found this by taking it apart after finding out the 1-year warranty expired.
- Since the repair cost was $100, and I found out I could get the newer version for just a little more than that, I opted for the new version.

I like this level of Powershot (in particular, the A590) for 3 reasons: 1) it’s a good point and shoot with decent start-up time and recover times (except with flash on full power); 2) it has MANUAL mode to set your own F-stop, Aperture, and flash intensity, along with ISO and white balance, etc. – even manual focus; 3) it uses AA batteries (we use rechargable AA batts) and SD memory cards, which work with every other device we have. If the rechargeables go out while we’re away, I can just buy AA batts anywhere.

You can read about the features – just warning that the flash recovery time is fairly slow (at least 10 seconds) in your Auto or Easy mode. For this reason, I frequently use manual mode with low-intensity flash and 2.6 F-stop with 1/40 sec shutter speed for twilight conditions.

You can collect a lot of data on your picture automatically, and the camera can remove redeye and crop shots, also you can analyze how well the picture came into focus.

Also, a note – only the (current) A5xx (past) A4xx series Powershots have a clip on the front that comes off to add aftermarket accessories such as filters, wide-angle lenses, etc.

In all, for this price, you get a top-notch camera that is NOT the best but is certainly by far the best, most reliable, and feature-full camera in this price range. My other camera is a film-based SLR.
