[QUOTE="Doug b, post: 773633, member: 59143"] Bought my wife the A590 IS and it's much better than most PnS camera's in its price range. With almost full (no manual focus of course, but you knew that) manual controls, and a tripod handy for night shots, you'll produce some fantastic pictures. In fact, the only negative (which its brethren share) it has is the noise it produces with higher ISO settings for dark/night shots. But as said, have tripod, will travel ! Great gift. doug P.S. Forgot. One more negative. Eats batteries fairly quickly, so make sure to get a spare pair of rechargeable batteries (Sanyo Enloops are great) and a decent charger, as quick chargers kill the overall battery life real fast. P.P.S. make that two.. The viewfinder is useless unless you're using automatic mode, which I never recommend because it usually sets the ISO higher than it needs to be, even in daylight. But this is not unlike most other PnS camera view finders. [/QUOTE]
