| Bottom line | Despite excessive noise at higher ISOs, Canon's A570 IS offers an excellent value and an impressive feature set in its category. | The Canon PowerShot A590 IS's manual exposure controls and surprisingly sharp pictures make it a great choice for almost anyone looking for a sub-$200 shooter. | It has its limitations, but the Canon PowerShot SX500 IS is a good choice for zoom addicts on a budget. | The Canon PowerShot SX260 HS' wider, longer lens, a few much-needed design tweaks, and excellent photo quality add up to one pretty great compact megazoom. | Info unavailable |
