Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Canon PowerShot A580 8MP Digital Camera with 4x Optical Zoom

Customer Review: Works for me.
Summary: 5 Stars

I needed a low cost, functional digital camera for my middle school science classroom. It is used by myself and dozens of students. So far it has performed very well. And the price was right. It is not the best camera for a serious photographer, but it works great for my educational purposes.
