Canon PowerShot S90 Digital Camera Review

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.

The S90 is a small digital compact camera, with a 10 megapixel, 1/1.7-inch type CCD sensor. On the back you’ve got a large 3 inch, 461K LCD display, and on the front a 28-105mm lens (4x zoom). Interestingly, the “lens bezel” is actually an interactive control ring, that you can setup to manipulate ISO, shooting mode, exposure compensation, focal length, and even white balance. It’s supposed to give an “analog” feel to the S90, and in a way it does, and regardless, I really like its functionality.
