this is a great camera! The high point of this camera is how good it is in photographing indoors and in low light, even outside in near darkness. The battery lasts a long time, the handling of it is easy, has a stabilizer and optional flash to use and many multi-functions to choose from. I have not learned all there is about it, but so far, I can say for the money this is a great semi-pro camera! I took a photo of my husband walking on the treadmill in the evening, indoors, low light and it was crystal clear and you could see the sweat on his skin, also the television was captured perfectly. Also, I love the exactness of the color. I have another camera that does not capture the same color, this one is great with capturing the exact color and look. Enjoy! Its painless to operate.

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.

Was bought for a gift for someone who has never had a digital camera before and they love it.
Easy to learn and get use to. Takes great pictures. Perfect as a first time user camera.

This is my first digital camera, Canon was my first choice. I have had my Canon Ae1 for over 25 years and it still works great. This camera takes great picture's and is easy to use. Also the upload to my computer was very fast. I recommend a must buy and it was a great price.

I received this camera in 2006 as a Christmas gift and have been using it ever since. The great results that I get from this camera are comparable to most any other 6 megapixel compact digital camera. I have had a number of prints made, and pictures that were exposed properly (per the command of the photographer) produced an amazing amount of detail.
This camera boasts something that wasn't too common among non-DSLR digital cameras: manual functions. For those who are more hands-on and like to have a little more control over how the camera exposes the picture, this was great. I have been able to use this camera to my advantage to explore the effects of shutter speed, aperture, exposure compensation, etc. It has led me to seek the expanded capabilities of a digital SLR.
But the advanced user aside, the general person who needs a way to capture great shots in most situations will love the relatively small size and great picture quality of this 6MP camera.
I'll be using this as a companion/backup camera alongside a DSLR because the quality of the images is just too great to pass up right now.
Pros:
* Great image quality
* Good color reproduction
* Basic and advanced controls
* Uses AA batteries
* Comfortable to hold, seems well-built
* Can be used with optional adapters and filters
Cons:
* Generally poor flash performance indoors, not much help in daylight
* LCD has a somewhat low resolution; screen looks grainier than it should
* No image stabilization
* Flash recharges slowly on most batteries

I went from a Canon powershot elph, to the sx110IS and I Love it! the zoom on this thing is amazing. the viewing screen is huge! I love everything about this camera. It's not very petite, but I find that the size makes it more comfortable to hold.

This camera is a big improvement on our Kodak easy-share, though we still use the kodak and dock for convenience. It's easy to learn how to use, and the large lcd screen is a delight. Also, the price at Adorama was the best we've seen anywhere.

I'll agree with many other reviews here that this is a fantastic little camera. Nice feel, solid construction, takes wonderful pictures. However the time between shots is longer than many other cameras with which I am familiar. The time to cycle between pictures when using the flash is excruciating.
It's also not the smallest camera out there. It fits in a pocket or purse, but just barely.
I recommend this camera and would buy it again as a good value for the price, just don't plan on using it for sports or some other subject where you need to take many shots quickly.

This camera was almost a five star camera. Disabling the RAW capability (that was available in the previous model) and some clunky controls and operation keep it at four stars for me.
For many of you, RAW makes no difference. And that is great. But for those folks who own Digital SLR cameras, and want this camera as a powerful, easy-to-carry utility camera - lack of RAW support cripples this camera.
Next, as other reviewers have noted, the side mounted mode-knob is easily jostled and can result in the camera being in a mode that you did not plan for it to be in when you are shooting. It is EASY to accidentally move this knob.
The lens cover and using it as the power button is a poor design as well.
Finally, since I seem to be listing the problems first, like most point and shoots the noise level at anything over 50 ISO is very high and makes the camera almost unusable in settings where you would like to set the ISO higher. Basically, very low light settings are compromised by this inablity to set the ISO at 400 and be confident that the pictures will have a low enough noise level to be usable.
On to the good. As a point and shoot camera, this offers a huge amount of control over the shot. You can shoot in aperture and shutter priorities and you can - in theory - do almost anything that you could do with a DSLR. Your biggest limitations are the lens (unchangable) and the sensor (small, high-noise at high ISO).
In 90% of the typical point and shoot settings, this camera will outperform your current camera. It takes beautiful pictures.
The wide angle lens gives you the ability to get more in the shot when you need to do so - making it a great "vacation" camera.
The zoom is decent, but not outstanding.
Colors are outstanding, and this is a typical Canon strength.
Reading through other reviews here, I also note that several people have complained that the camera did not fare well after being dropped - with a particular emphasis on the large LCD cracking if you drop it. I'm not sure how to respond to that... I guess that I would just say that I would have expected that to happen. I tend to treat $500 (when I bought it anyway) cameras carefully. I purchased an inexpensive camera case which I use always (and find easy to use, since it attaches to my belt) and I use the camera strap when I use the camera. I haven't dropped the camera yet in the year I have owned it. If I did, I'd be pleasantly surprised if it survived - not upset with Canon if it didn't. There are many different types of people with many different expectations in this world, and product reviews are a great place to see these many different attitudes!

I have owed many digital cameras over the past 8 years (at least 6), plus fancy Nikon SLRs before digital. I concider myself an amateur photographer. My last camera was a Canon SD500 (i carelessly dropped it hard and it died, it took other drops and was fine) I used it very often for about a year. I loved it!!! But it did not have the manual features I really like, but overall it did do most artistic type shots that I wanted. I personnaly prefer a quality small camera over any larger camera. I have also compared other brands use and prints, and nothing beats a Canon, IMHO. Canon's just seem to print out what you original saw on camera without having to make any changes on the computer.
The s80 is amazing! You just can't go wrong! It Canon's latest evolution as of Spring 2006. Its everything the SD500/550 is plus a lot more, although it is a bit heaver and larger, but not too much so. It is so easy to use and has a scroll wheel that is really effective. It has so many features and options, but the s80 still manages to keeps them fairly usable.
Please ignore other reviewers argument over RAW. Snobby purists insist on RAW. RAW takes hours of work for marginal improvements. JPEG is better for almost all applications.
Pros:
- Does everything possible short of being an SLR!
- Nice intuitive controls
- Great picures with superb resolution and lighting
- Really, it has everything!
- Could be used as a web cam (with additional software)
- Does higher res movies with audio (works great)
- Does time lapse; braketing (three shots in one); flash offset
Cons:
- Besides personal opinions of style, comfort, and
minors issues of SD vs. CF cards - NO major Cons. I much
prefer SD cards (smaller, cheaper, more standard)
- It has a slightly noisy zoom (not too bad)
- If you have big fingers, it would be harder to use.
OVERALL, if you really just want point a shot camera, the s80 can do that, but is really more than you need, get the SD550 or A95 instead. Just about any 5-6mp camera will do most family snapshots.
If the 5-6mp camera can print 8x10s, why would anyone need a >6mp camera? A: Cropping, cropping lets a novice take about any picture that has way too much space over people's heads and frame it more professionally (according to books). Cropping can create better eye flow and more detail. Even cropped you can print great pics. Also, if you really want to print good poster size prints then 8mp will do the trick.
--------------------
*** Digital SLR vs. Digital Compact/Snapshot Cameras:
I have had many types of cameras and lenses. Overall each has its purpose and target user. But, I feal that a compact like the s80 has as many or more features and abilities as larger good SLRs.
I think that SLRs main current strength is that they have:
1) Easily changable lenses
2) Perhaps better f-stop ranges (greater depth of field)
3) Longer battery time
4) More shots per second
These SLR advantages do not outweight the large bulky form factor and high cost when compared to a good compact. The s80 is the first really good compact that meets or exceeds a good SLR in terms of features and resolution. The s80 meets 98% of my needs. I value being able to pull it out of my pocket for a quick candid type shot over having an obvious bulhy camera that it all too often stuffed in a camera bag. And when I need full manual setup with tripod and lighting and remote triggering the s80 is full cabable and its printed photos are as good or better that other SLRs I've used. Plus, it is much easier/cheaper to use underwater with special case (I dive - it works great). Woefully, a compact camera just doesn't look very professional, but that is psychcological.

An excellent camera that has automatic features for novice users and has manual features that allows experienced users to compose their own shots.
It does take some reading in the user manual to use the options correctly.

I have had 2 of the previous iterations of this camera, and bought this only because I had dropped my earlier version and broken the internals of the view finder. I shoot candid shots in group settings and wanted a camera with a viewfinder that responded quickly when the shutter is pushed and used AA batteries. This does far more than I can do and is perfect for what I use it for.

This is a great point and shoot Camera:
Pros:
- Sturdy, literally unbreakable. My kid has thrown this camera around but no damage done.
- Takes sharp pictures for a 6mp Camera. I will upload some of the pictures I have shot with this camera.
- For manual control freaks, this camera has enough manual control to play around with.
- Uses 2 AA rechargeable batteries. Buy a 15 minute charger and you are all set. No need to buy li-ION batteries.
Cons:
- After handling the Elphs, this one looks a little bulky, however I have not complaints with it's size what so ever.
- Is an old camera so is definitely slower between two pictures, again I have had not complaints with that.
All in all, for the price this is a great great camera. I upgraded to an XTi and bought an ELPH, but this camera is staying with me. I also have a previous version of the A540, the A520 extremely happy with that one also.

Just a short note to let you know that I had some reservations about this item because of the claims of short battery life. I looked at a lot of other cameras and was hoping for some great features without having to go to the fancy schmancy cameras. For the price, I think it's a great buy. It is easy to use, it has a lot of great features and you can use manual functions but I haven't needed to yet because of all of the options including "night scene", "kids and pets", "foliage" and so on. The camera came with two basic alkaline batteries and I've literally taken a couple hundred pictures and they're still working. I don't use the flash very often, so this may contribute to the longer battery life, but I generally use rechargeable Ni-MH batteries, so I'm not too worried about the future battery life once these freebies wear out.

Well, if you have big pockets. It's pretty clunky for a point-and-shoot, but the zoom and manual mode make up for it. It's small enough to lug around, yet the grip and features make it feel like a "real" camera. The all-manual exposure mode was my main reason for buying Canon A-series cameras, even though I've ended up using them in Program mode 99% of the time -- it's a very smart P. mode. Neither this one nor the previous A70 have disappointed me in any way (other than the A70's CMOS coming loose, but that's a warranty repair, I just chose to buy a new 8MP instead of getting the old one fixed).
The AiAF seems to alway pick the wrong part of the frame to focus on for me, but I turned it off and just used the center frame and a half-press of the shutter button. No problem with that method, since I grew up on Olympus OM-series SLRs.
The manual focusing leaves something to be desired, since it just gives a magnified center on the LCD, and no cheats -- you have to judge sharpness on the little LCD, by eyeballing it. But you'll never need to use the MF, since the auto works perfectly from one inch to infinity if you set it to only use the center zone, then focus on what you want to be sharp and hold the shutter button halfway down while you compose. The MF does show a distance scale at the top, so you can really fine-tune it if you're willing to break out a ruler.
Overall, I'd say it's as good as you can get without interchangeable lenses. Ease of use and features abound.

I upgraded to this camera from my older Powershot A510 (stolen). It's better in every way. MUCH faster, good battery life, awesome pictures, unbelievable zoom, and image stabilization (I got soooo many fuzzy pictures with the A510 -- not anymore!). It's definitely not compact (fills up my entire jeans pocket), but it takes infinitely better pictures than compact cameras. The software has also gotten much better, and you can finally play videos in ZoomBrowser. It's still not very good at extreme macro shots or low light conditions; but I'm not a pro photographer either, so I rarely mess with the settings. BTW, GREAT bang for the buck.
Hope this helps you gather information!
