Strengths: The Features like Fireworks, Kids&Pets, Beach, Snow, Aquarium, Foliage, Sunset, Night Scene, Image Stabilizer, & Indoor Modes are a Huge Asset to have in a Camera for this Size & Price! Not to mention it also is an 8.0 Megapixel Camera. And to Top it off, it has Manual Modes as well. I absolutely love this Compact Camera. Highly Recommend!!!!
Weaknesses:The only weakness found thus far is Battery Useage... That's if you take alot of pictures like I do. But you can always buy a Power Adapter for it. Also, there are no easy modes for fast moving objects.
Overall Evaluation: A Great All-Around Family Camera. It's a Perfect Camera for almost any situation or scene, except Fast Moving Objects. Highly Recommended for People who have little to no experience with camera's.

Strengths: capable of attaching wide-angle lens converterBattery life indicator gives very ample low battery warning

Overall Evaluation: Picture quality exceeds that of my Nikon Coolpix P50 & easier to use menus. Canon Zoom Browzer software is easier to use than that provided with my Nikon.

Strengths: very easy to use, with easy to understand instructions
Weaknesses:Haven't found any yet
Overall Evaluation: This is a great camera. Easy to use and understand. I did not have to spend hours reading instructions before taking my first pictures. But it still has many features that I plan to learn to use in the future. It produces quality photos that were easy to download.

Canon PowerShot A590 IS Point-and-Shoot Camera
For a beginner's camera, the PowerShot A590IS offers amazing image quality and superb stabilization.
My digital camera expertise begins and ends with this fact: I cannot resist the urge to photograph a couple of fuzzballs named Chuckie and Violet. I'm a classic novice point-and-shooter, and the crème de la crème of my snapshots find their way onto Flickr or Facebook.
