Good Reliable Camera

Good Reliable Camera. For the price I paid I would have hoped the picture quality was better, nothing special. Purchased a Nikon 3200 for cheaper and it's a much better camera.

Canon S90

Usually I'd spend a lot of time running through features and talking about performance before giving you the bottom line on Canon's new pocketable camera. But I just can't be coy about this one. The S90 is the best compact camera I've ever used. Oh, you'd like to hear more? Certainly.

Great, small camera with every feature you need.

I bought this camera for my daughter who has been taking photography classes for awhile now. She loves all the great features it has especially the RAW feature where she can touch up her pictures. She also loves how small and convenient it is to fit in her purse and carry around at all times.

Canon PowerShot S90 – Review – 34

In the last round of releases under the PowerShot moniker, Canon apparently decided to buck the trend for ever-increasing megapixels and focus on the real business of taking photos: image quality.
Pros:
  • Performs well in low light
  • Sharp
  • fast f/2.0 lens
  • Very compact
Cons:
  • Aperture ring sticks while spinning

Outstanding Point and Shoot with Manual controls to play with

The Canon S90 was a camera I had my eye on for sometime before I made the decision to purchase.  I wanted a small camera I could take around with me all the time that took great looking photos.  I also wanted something that could help me learn how to handle a DSLR should I get more into photography.

Canon PowerShot S90

The Canon S90 is finest point and shoot I've ever owned. I've shot with the Panasonic DMC-FX50 and the Canon SD790IS prior to this camera. When my wife and I went to Europe in November 2009 she kept taking amazing photos with her Canon 5D Mark II and my photos from the Canon SD790IS couldn't...
Pros:
  • Low light capability with an f/2.0 lens
  • full manual controls
  • well built
  • amazing photos
  • great screen
  • HDMI output
Cons:
  • No HD video mode
  • the strap

Forget that SLR and Pick This Up

There is a bug in all of us to be an aspiring photographer. So we invest in a big fat SLR camera, sling it around our neck for 1-2 months, clicking every moment of your life and get praised for the quality of the pictures. The issue is how long can you carry the big fat SLR??

Excellent for compact at low ISO. I 've been using it for 5 months (i bought one second hand for 200a??). I also have a Canon 500D 18-200IS. I ve ended up using more the S90 as I can always carry it with me. It is a good camera compared to all compacts.
