Review: Canon S90
Usually I'd spend a lot of time running down 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.
Pros:
- Awesomely fast lens
- Granular control over just about any aspect of your shots that you can think of
- Slick control ring
- Quick startup and shooting
Cons:
- Slightly bulkier than the smallest pocket cams
- Backside controls are a little cramped
