Review 1 of 4

Price Paid:  $149.00 from Best BUy

Summary:

Did some research before I got this camera and many said it was one of the best ones in the price range. I would agree. Takes great pictures and has many features that you can adjust for different photos. The manual settings are great for a beginner like me experimenting with different shots.

Strengths:

Manual settings
Lots of options
Uses regular AA batteries
Good battery life

Weaknesses:

Slow flash recharge

Review 3 of 4

Price Paid:  $150.00 from Amazon.com

Summary:

I had high hopes for this camera, especially with the image stabilization feature. But the camera arrived with a faulty sensor that generated wildly overexposed images in all modes. I couldn't believe Canon let such a defective unit out the door.

Strengths:

Size, cost, image stabilization.

Weaknesses:

Poor quality control let a camera with a bad sensor get sold.

Similar Products Used:

Kodak C875, Fujifilm F31fd

Customer Service:

Amazon took the item back, but tacked on some "promotion" charge that left me a few dollars short of the purchase price. I'm disputing this with them. I've had nothing but excellent service from Canon's customer support people, however. With the A570is, I simply didn't want to go through technical gyrations -- I just sent back the camera.
