'In truth, there's not a lot about the A590 that really jumps out in an initial evaluation.'

'an "Easy" mode which reduces complexity of the on-screen information overlay and disables all external controls except for the shutter button, flash button and zoom lever.'

'great camera'
'an "Easy" mode which reduces complexity of the on-screen information overlay and disables all external controls except for the shutter button, flash button and zoom lever.'
'This is an irritating design, and large thumbs will be prone to accidentally bumping the zoom in or out, or changing settings such as flash when using the zoom.'
'the camera supports only 10 frames per second, even for its "high-quality" VGA clips, which results in pretty jerky video.'
'Unfortunately, Canon skimped big time on the screen resolution (there are just 85,000 pixels)'
'he A540's images got rather noisy; at anything above ISO 200, the noise pattern was noticeable and distracting, and the colors become flat and dull.'
'Solid image quality, usable ISO 800 performance, and a full set of manual controls make the Canon PowerShot A540 an excellent choice for photo enthusiasts looking for an almost-pocketable second camera, or for budding photographers who aren't ready to move up to a superzoom EVF model or digital SLR.'
'a reduction in size and weight (it's 13% smaller and 20% lighter), the inclusion of a new four times optical zoom lens'
'Packed with value superior to any other camera in its class, the PowerShot A510 is brimming with that "best buy" feel. 3.2 Megapixel resolution, Canon's exclusive DIGIC Image Processor and a new, longer 4x optical zoom bring life-like detail and radiant color to all your images.'
'The Canon PowerShot A510 digital camera is a compact design that is simple and focused on family needs.'
'easy-to-use shutter- and aperture-priority modes'
'In spite of a look and feel that keeps the A470 looking a bit like a throw-back'
'The Canon PowerShot A470 is appropriate for first time entry-level photographers desiring an easy-to-use point-and-shoot digital camera at an affordable price'
'pretty good digital camera'
'The Canon A470 automatically detects, tracks, focuses and optimizes the exposure on up-to nine forward looking human faces in the frame or can lock onto a specific face in the crowd, ensuring that all (or one) are in focus and properly exposed, with or without flash.'
