Canon PowerShot S90 Review

The Canon S90 is a photographer's compact camera.  If you owned any of the recent Canon G-series cameras, you will appreciate the S90 as more of a compact version of that series.  The S90 delivers control and flexibility that has been taken away from the user in so many other compact camera models

Canon PowerShot S90 IS

Canon markets the PowerShot S90 as "the perfect everyday camera for people who are serious about great photography". This is close to on point, though we would change it to perfect everyday compact camera. The lens, controls and shooting options make it a fine choice for enthusiasts.
Pros:
  • Excellent control system for manual
  • semi-manual shooting
  • Fantastic wide-angle f/2 lens
  • Very good low-light photo quality
Cons:
  • Performance is merely average
  • No HD movie mode or optical zoom while recording
  • No optical viewfinder and a couple of other design miscues

Canon S90 Very Good

This is a very cool little camera. Cool because it has a bright (f/2.0) wide (20mm eqiv) lens. Cool because it has lots of manual controls and a unique control ring around the lens barrel where aperture rings used to be. The lens is very sharp, and image quality is very good.

Getting a compact camera noticed above the swell of £150 mid-range snappers is difficult, but as soon as you lift it out of the box, the S90's aspirations towards miniature-DSLR quality are obvious.
