Next, we have two new A-series models, which replace the PowerShot A590 and A720, respectively. I’m disappointed to see that neither of these cameras have manual controls, which is a step back from their predecessors. Here are the specs:PowerShot A1000 IS

• Point-and-shoot operation
• Same face detection and Easy Mode as the SX110
• Records movies at 640 x 480 (30 fps) with sound
• Same memory card support as the SX110
• Uses two AA batteries; battery life not available
• Comes in four colors: gray, gold, blue, and purple
• Ships in September for $199

PowerShot A2000 IS changes:
