Re: Canon A590 IS a great camera. Canon bring it back! and the A710IS, A650IS too :)

The Canon A590IS was a very good camera. I had one and enjoyed it a lot. I liked it mostly because it didn't have an expensive proprietary battery but rather could be powered by AA batteries. And the photos were very good as well. (Although, above ISO 100 noise increases to really unusable at 800, while the G15 is still crystal sharp). I traveled with it to many locations and the pics I took still evoke fond memories with family.

That being said, the A590IS and the others mentioned with it, are yesterday's news. Better, much better, Canon P&S cameras are with us today. Canon is not going to bring those cameras back. C'mon man! All your bleating and pleading falls on deaf ears and they are not moved.

I still own my A590IS, although I should have sold it on E-Bay as I did all others because I never use it anymore. When I leave the house or travel somewhere I usually take at least 2 cameras with me: The G15 & S110. If I'm on an extended stay, I might take the G1X also.

Moving on.....!
