The "IS" is part of the full name for the A1000IS and A590IS, but sometimes people just leave it out. There are not IS and non-IS versions of the A1000[IS] and A590[IS]. Canon's including it into the formal names is useful to distinguish them from some models that lack[ed] IS. For example the earlier A540 lacked IS. The current economy model, the A480, lacks IS.

Only the A200, A300 and A350. They all share the same basic chassis, later cameras are different.

If you are looking to update and stick with the a-mount system, the A99 is the way to go. I have both and the full frame sensor on the A99 along with the added features and better low light performance makes it my go to camera. The only thing the a A77 is better at is speed, Fps. Your other option is to go mirrorless like the A7 series and use an adapter like the LEA4 to use your A - mount glass. It's an amazing camera for the money I have the A7. The only negative is the lack of in-body stabilization which is remedied by the A7 mk 2 that just came out.

I highly recommend the A710. I bought it for a recent trip to Tokyo as an upgrade from the A70 and it did exactly what I wanted it to do. I like to take a lot of pictures in low light without a flash and the IS worked out great. The longer zoom is digital so I don't bother using it. I can crop later and zoom if I want to in photoshop. The normal optical zoom is good enough for me at 6x. I did most of my shooting in auto mode which gave me control over flash and macro settings. Manual mode is easy enough however. There are a lot of extras that I haven't used much. The one thing that I didn't like was the fact that this camera uses SD unlike my A70 which uses CF. Since I have a bunch of CF cards it would have been nice to use them in the A710 but a 2G SD card is pretty cheap. One more thing that I like about the A710 is that they removed 2 batteries so it's a bit lighter. I like canon cameras so I haven't looked at other brands with similar features and price. It sounds like you've done your homework and I think you'll really like this camera. btw, if you would like to see some of the pictures that I have taken with this camera you can see some of them here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/cjw333/sets/72157594390957283/

"Elph" is one of Canon's lines of digital point-and-shoot cameras. I currently have the Powershot SD 900 Elph, and love it. But of course it can't compare to an SLR.

Not AP130a, it's the AG AC130a. It does have the upgraded autofocus and does a decent job. The camera is awsome.

The D5000 is a very good camera. If you want a full frame the D600 is great. What you gain, in my opinion, is better high ISO performance. The picture quality is mainly up to uou no matter what camera upu use. If I were you, I wouldn't spend much time researching and agonizing over it. If you want higher ISO performance, the D600 is a good choice. Just buy it. Then, go out and take lots of pictures. Have fun!

I just contacted Canon Tech Support. The Canon XA10 has shipped to Dealers!!!!! I just noticed Norman Camera's in Michigan has posted it as "in stock". However, I plan to purchase from One Call or Amazon.

The camera model "A100K" is a Kit including both the A100 body and the stock Sony 18-70mm f/3.5-5.6DT lens. You've found a misprint.

Thank you, Ellen. Your information is helpful. I'm probably going to go for the Canon 810 instead of the 600. With your and MLipenk's feedback, I believe I can now move forward on this with confidence.

You're right, the four-cell PowerShots generally are exceptionally nice cameras. I liked my A70 a lot but like so many others it died young. Compared to these earlier designs, the A590 may "deliver value" but it just seems unpleasantly cheap and slick. It also lacks several nice features such as the Lumix LZ8's 5x zoom range, 230K dot LCD and 30fps video modes -- but it has the viewfinder, high speed USB and manual focus the LZ8 lacks. http://www.dpreview.com/reviews/compare_post.asp?method=sidebyside&cameras;=canon_a590is%2Cpanasonic_dmclz8&show;=all

Well the D5100 cost more so it is a better camera. The main thing is the D5100 use the D7000 sensor, which is best in high ISO and lowlight over any other APS-C dslr (that include any canon like the T3i 60d, even 7D which all used the same old sensor). It has a swivel screen over the D3100. It is a little faster in continuous shooting at 4 fps vs 3 of the D3100, not really a big deal. Otherwise from the major reason here it is the same in a lot on most other specs.http://www.dpreview.com/reviews/nikond5100/page22.asp

Hi Ram, I was also undecided between a Sony and a Canon. I went with a Canon and I am very happy. I used to have a Sony Cybershot and was generally happy. I am much more happy know with the quality and built of my Canon SD1000. I checked expert reviews before buying my camera. In this case, it seems that the SD1000 is better rated than the Sony DSC-W80. Here are some links to reviews and a summary of expert ratings: Canon SD1000: http://www.smartratings.com/review/photography/digital_cameras/1144 Sony DSC-W80: http://www.smartratings.com/review/photography/digital_cameras/1323

I have a Canon A620. Great battery life - 500 shots, but bulky, coat pocket vs shirt pocket. It had 4 AA batteries. The A590IS is petite by comparison, lightweight, and like the rest of the A series, delivers value in an attractive package. Just don't expect it to be the size of an ELPH (SD series). It's actually rather more attractive than the plain silver ELPHs anyway

I'm thinking about buying new DSLR.. Nikon D3100 has been on top of the list and competing with Canon T3. Though, what matters to me is picture quality / colors / sharpness. I dont care much about video shooting as I can use my iphone when needed. My question is if anyone of you are professional photographer or has expirence dealing with both cameras.. which one would you buy? both are about at the same price. I need camera which can take nice outdoor pictures and perform better than point n shoot in low light (indoors).

Did any of you read this review? http://www.digitalreview.ca/content/Nikon-D5000-D90-Compared-to-Canon-Rebel-T1i-500D.shtmlD5000 seems to be an easy pick. I am now tossing my coin between D90 and D5000.
