Kodak EasyShare M590

The M590 is a small, thin, attractive, 14 megapixel point-and-shoot camera with an internal folded-optics lens, which means the lens does not move in and out when optical zoom is enabled.

The M590 has other appealing features – optical image stabilization, 5x optical zoom, HD movie ability and a “share” button which allows the user to tag photos to be emailed or loaded to Facebook, YouTube, Orkut, Flickr, or the Kodak Gallery.

Kodak claims the M590 is the thinnest camera available with a 5x optical zoom at only 0.6 inches thick, and my own research confirms this. The M590 appears to be a good choice for those interested in a modestly priced thin, stylish, camera with an internal folded-optics zoom lens. Let’s find out if this is indeed the case.
