Serious photographers want to be ready to capture the moment, but carrying a bulky professional camera everywhere is impractical. That’s why the PowerShot S90 offers professional features in a compact and portable body. This slim point-and-shoot camera provides crisp images with a 10.0MP sensor and a 3.8X optical zoom. The bright f/2.0 lens is perfect for low-light conditions, beautiful portraits and amazing close-ups using the Macro setting.
Add Canon’s Optical Image Stabilizer and taking amazing pictures on the go becomes hassle-free. Create the perfect shot by easily adjusting any setting with the customizable control ring surrounding the lens. Change focus, exposure, ISO, step zoom and white balance from one convenient location.
When you don’t have time for settings, simply use one of the advanced presets and let the S90 do the rest. Shoot in RAW mode and you can touch up your images on a compatible PC without losing picture quality. The S90 can also record movies in 640 x 480 resolution for up to one hour. When portability is just as important as quality, the PowerShot S90 offers the best of both worlds. Add this camera to your mobile life today!

Worth the wait!
- Pros: Stunning image quality, pocket-sized, metal case, easy controls
- Cons: None
- Other Thoughts: Gets you 95% of the SLR picture quality without the size. There's really nothing to complain about here. Glad I waited for this to be released.
Finally
- Pros: f2 aperture when lens is wide open at 28mm.
Great for night/indoor pictures.
battery life
Finally a P&S camera with capabilities rivaling the Panasonic Lumix series (LX)
- Cons: The camera body is metal (except top and bottom pieces) but the metal is very thin.
Why is the dial on the back so loose?
Placement of the flash is awkward
- Other Thoughts: To those who complain about no 720 HD video. What if S90 has 720 HD video capability but with a $100 extra in price tag. You will see people complaining about the price.

Great Camera
- Pros: Great little compact, image quality is much better than any other compact camera I've used. I liked it so much I got rid of my Nikon D60 as I didn't need to lug it around to take decent photos.
High ISO and night shots are possible and the manual controls allow photos you couldn't get with a camera that you can fit in a packet comfortably.
Aftermarket batteries are cheap and it just works. You do need to carry a spare for a whole day of taking pictures.
- Cons: Faster focus would nice
Finally
- Pros: f2 aperture when lens is wide open at 28mm.
Great for night/indoor pictures.

Nice camera
- Pros: Good overall picture quaility, easy to use.
- Cons: Slow focus on moving shots
- Other Thoughts: Worth the extra money vs. the other "point and shoot" cameras on the market.
