Canon PowerShot S90 review
For years we've longed for a compact digital camera with image quality to rival that of SLRs. Suddenly it seems we're spoiled for choice. Some models cram an SLR sensor into a small body, but Canon's S90 takes a less radical approach, with a wide-aperture lens to capture lots of light.

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??
