Digital camera reviews of Canon PowerShot A590IS 8MP Digital Camera with 4x Optical Image Stabilized Zoom

Digital camera Review: Breakable.
Summary: 4 Stars

I have to start by saying that it's the second Power Shot I've owned. the first one was A510 series, and I loved it, until I had dropped it once on the hard wood floor, and it broke. I bought A590 to replace it, and also loved, until...I had dropped it on the hard wood floor twice. It's still working, but the battery compartment won't close, so I have to keep it closed with my finger, while trying to take a picture. I love this camera, but I wish it was a little more sturdy.
