Copper-colored/black beetle good or bad?

Tuscaloosa, AL(Zone 7b)

I tried to get a photo -- but these guys zip away when I get close. They are about 3/16-5/16" long, have a shiny copper-colored metallic-looking back. The rest of the bug is black. I have seen a lot of them on the cannas, but a few were on the pepper plants and eggplants today.

Good or bad? If bad, how do I get rid of them?

Thanks,
Karen
