New Cameras
Image by timsamoff
A while back, I mentioned that I broke my latest point-and-shoot camera. Since then, I went back to my old Minolta Dimage G500. It takes pretty good pictures — and, lucky for me, it’s built like a tank — but it has it’s drawbacks (most notably, every picture it takes contains 3 to 10 dead pixels, depending on the light level, that I have to fix in post).
Anyway, we thought it was time to buy a new camera, and, in fact, we ended up buying two: the Canon Powershot A590 IS (which isn’t even listed in Flickr’s Camera Finder yet).
The A590 IS is one of Canon’s lower-end PowerShots, but from all of the reviews — and my day of use — it seems like a pretty solid purchase that will keep us happy (on a point-and-shoot level anyway) for quite a while.
So, why’d we buy two? Well, I take my camera everywhere I go, so my wife rarely gets to use it. Now she can whenever she wants.
