Rating:  - Very good dealThe Canon A590IS is a lot of camera for a very moderate price. Furthermore, Consumer Reports just rated it a best buy. Rating:  - Good value for priceThis is a great little camera. Unless you want to take professional phots, it will be great for you. It does all I need. Rating: - This is a good camera.The camera body is plastic but it is substantial and feels solid. Be sure to get 2500 NiMH batteries as they will last the longest. The manual says you should get approximately 450 shots with a fresh set of NiMH, 2500mAH batteries and approximately 200 shots with regular Alkaline batteries. The batteries are quick to change and a separate coin battery in the camera keeps the date/time and other settings from falling out so you are up and running in no time. Some reviews have said you can't zoom when shooting video but that is not the case. Granted, you won't have the digital zoom capability, but that has not been an issue for me. I like this camera and I'm pleased at how it works a feels. For the price, it is, by far the best deal out there. Rating: - Great camera for the priceI got this camera after having a poor experience with another brand (casio) small point and shoot camera. The Canon A590IS provides excellent quality photos and video both indoors and out. I used it for an entire week's vacation in a a variety of settings with an 8GB SDHC card with no problems. The image stabilization is a huge plus for this camera, because the small point and shoots without it often result in blurry pictures, even in good lighting. This canon is easy to grip and take a nice steady picture. The result is you can usually get a good shot even with the flash off in normal room lighting, because the stablization keeps the shot steady during a slower shutter speed. I used all the various automatic modes like indoor, kids, pets, landscape etc with good results, but auto and P mode seem to do the job in most situations. The video results are very good, even though they are only 20 fps, but this only effects fast action like a sports event, and even then is not really noticeable. I made a video of a flag football game that came out fine. I tested all the modes up to 8 megapixel. The 3M fine mode is my default for normal situations. The only downside of this camera is the battery life. For some reason, the camera shows the AA batteries are low even though they are only slightly discharged. As a result you have to often change the batteries, even though the batteries you take out still measure well into the green charged range on a battery tester. So do not throw away batteries after you take them out of this canon. They are still fine for any other device. Canon needs to fix this problem. Otherwise great camera at a great price for both photo and video. Get an 8GB SDHC card and a bunch of AA batteries and you will be good to go. Rating: - Love it! Easy to use. This is my first digital camera and I was concerned that it would take forever to figure out all the special features. The user guide is 207 pages! I ended up just reading the first few pages so that I could get started using the camera right away. I then discovered that many of the features are self-explanatory. Anyway, I have yet to read the guide or watch the video but have been using the camera almost daily for 2 months. I love the quality of the pictures and unlike a 35mm, good light is not that important. I take a lot of pictures inside with pretty lousy light. The memory card that comes with the camera will let you take about 12 pictures but it only takes a minute to download the pictures onto your computer and clear the card. I am going to get the 1 GB memory card and camera case that Amazon offers, they are only $15.95. I have noticed that this camera burns through double A batteries pretty quick but it only takes two double A's. I ignore the low battery warning and keep going until the batteries are completely used up, this lets me get another couple days of use. Anyway, I love this camera! If you need a good camera for your Ebay pictures, this one is great!
