It's a welcome return for Canon's advanced compact S-series
It was way back in August 2005 that Canon launched the last in the line of its S-Series compact photographers' cameras, the S80. And though you can see traces of the S60/S70/S80's DNA in the S90 it is a very different beast to those cameras; the S90 is smaller, sleeker - and in many ways more sophisticated, but it's lost the optical viewfinder and the lack of anything to really get hold of will undoubtedly impact on handling.
A slimline digicam with advanced shooting controls plus a high-resolution LCD monitor.Introduced four years after the previous S-series model (the S80), Canon's PowerShot S90 IS presents as the smallest, slimmest and lightest digicam on the market to offer an Advanced suite of shooting modes plus raw file capture. Equipped with the same 10-megapixel CCD sensor as the PowerShot G11, the S90 boasts a fast (f/2.0), stabilised 3.8x zoom lens and a 3-inch PureColor II high-resolution monitor.
The new Canon PowerShot S90 compact camera offers a lot of DSLR functionality in a pocketable format. Support for the RAW format, full range of manual shooting modes, and a fast f/2.0 lens should grab any keen photographer's attention, especially as the Canon S90 can easily slip inside a shirt pocket. This seemingly winning combination of size and features doesn't come cheap though - £449.00 / €519.00 / $429.99 is an awful lot to ask for what is after all still a camera with a tiny image sensor. Gavin Stoker sizes up the Canon PowerShot S90 in our latest expert review...
My first real camera was a Canon S50. I loved it. Canon let the pro compact S line die a few years later. It's back with the S90, though the only thing that's the same is that it's still awesome.
Canon\'s powerful PowerShot S90 brings some game-changing innovation to the table with its cool control ring.
