Canon PowerShot A570IS 7.1MP Digital Camera with 4x Optical Image Stabilized Zoom

I bought this camera right before going on vacation. The pictures I took all came out fabulous! The camera is simple to use and has great features. I used most of the features and I was very pleased with the results. The LCD panel is very visible even in bright sunlight. My only concern,which I had read much about before buying, was that it went through batteries very quickly. I followed someone's advice and bought lithium batteries. So far I have taken 500+ pictures using the LCD and it's still going. I'm very pleased!!

The camera was excellent especially comparing to its price.
I liked it and bought it two times.

After many hours of research, I decided to buy the A570IS; unfortunately, I ordered it on-line, when I should have bought it at the local Wal-Mart, where they take anything back. I sent the first camera back to the Canon factory, because it ate batteries. Even tho I used the NIMH and had a battery charger, the camera still ate batteries. Second camera comes from Canon (re-furbished) and the same thing happens; it eats batteries and doesn't transfer pictures. So I've spent lots of time sending cameras back and trying to get them to work. I give up. I want my money back, and I'm still haggling with Canon.

I LOVE this camera. I'm amazed at the wonderful quality of the pictures I took with it. The 4X zoom is just great. The anti-shaking software works wonderfully. All the settings are very intuitive to use. Only problem: it holds only 2 AA batteries, which are consumed very quickly. Best to buy rechargeable batteries and use those..

This product is great in terms of what you get with that small amount of money. Has great features and resolution, respectable optical zoom and a very good image stabilizer. In my family we got three!!
