Product Description
The pocketable PowerShot S90 gives powerful everyday shooting. Shoot quickly with a lens control ring and get superior low-light performance with a high-sensitivity 10.0 MP CCD and f/2.0 lens. A high-sensitivity CCD sensor gives outstanding image quality in a wide variety of lighting conditions. Even images taken at high ISOs show exceptionally low noise levels and a wide dynamic range. A bright f/2.0 aperture allows exceptional versatility, capturing low-light images and fast-moving subjects at higher shutter speeds. A wide angle of 28mm lets you put more in the frame, while Canon's optical IS reduces blur caused by camera shake.

 Canon S90 or SD4000? July 27, 2010
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
As of July 2010, Canon S90 and Canon SD4000 are two of the best pocketable point and shoot cameras. Tough choice. Having used both, here is my take on these two excellent cameras:
ADVANTAGES OF S90 Over SD4000
1. Better picture quality.
2. Lots of manual controls.
3. Can capture images in RAW mode, allowing you lot more editing and image manipulation options.
ADVANTAGES OF SD4000 Over S90
1. HD video recording.
2. Slow motion video recording.
3. Some extra image effects like miniaturization and fish eye.
4. Slightly smaller size.
5. Native Eye-Fi support. But Eye-Fi card also works in S90.
6. I found a little better low light performance.
If you are looking for an excellent still image point & shoot camera and do not care that much about HD video then go for S90, which is really a prosumer camera designed for advanced amateur. But if you want an all in one, simple to use camera with ability to shoot good still pictures and HD video, then SD4000 is your camera.
Finally, a small camera that I am happy with.... July 27, 2010

I've had this camera for 2 months now and have been very pleased with the picture quality. I chose this camera because of its pocketability. I've owned a DSLR (Canon XTI) and G11 before, however due to their size they mostly stayed at home. This is my 6th P&S camera from Canon (I have upgradetitis) and I'm planning on keeping this for a long time. I would also recommend purchasing the aftermarket grip, gordy neck strap, lensmate filter adapter, and LCD protector for this camera.
My best Point of Shot July 26, 2010
I own this Camera and used it almost every day & every where.. good low light performance.. also easy to carry in my pocket.. I like this camera so much
Just What I Was Looking For July 26, 2010
I live in a one camera household, so an SLR simply wasn't feasible. The S90 has been an acceptable compromise for both my wife and I. I love the fast lens, macro capabilities, and low-light responsiveness. My wife loves the portability and the fact she can select auto and take consistently great pics.
The small size comes with a cost. I have to always remember to keep my finger off of the pop up flash, so as not to impede it from popping up. Most importantly, the brushed aluminum finish lacks any tactile feel. I immediately purchased the Franiec custom grip and it has made a big difference.
The video recording is not 720p, but it looks great anyway (due no doubt to the great lens). I have read of others who have been dissatisfied with the battery life, but after coming from a camera using rechargeable AAs, I have no complaints.
We take lots of pictures at evening events and indoors, so we have been very happy with our S90. There have been a few times when I wished it had a 10x or 12x lens, but then again, those cameras can't match the photo quality of mine. It isn't perfect, but I've never been more pleased with a point and shoot. Canon really listened to consumers when they designed this one.
Honey Canon shrunk their slr July 24, 2010

My wife and are are novice photographers. We lugs our heavy gears every where we go trying to get high quality photos. Due to the cost of the typical underwater housing of an slr, we decided to go with the S90 + a housing. Prior to the S90, we owned 5 others P&S cameras, all highly recommended by dpreview, but none does the trick. However, the S90 does most of the stuffs that an average photographers would want in a very small body.
1) features (4/5): how about panoramic and hdr assist features
2) ease of use (5/5): The interface is very intuitive. The front and back rings allow quick change of settings which encourages creativities, not often found on P&S cameras.
3) Picture quality(5/5): AMAZING! Most the time, the photo does not look as good on computer as it does on the camera preview screen but that's not the case for the S90.
4) Portability (5/5): The camera is definitely not the smallest but its small enough to be pocket size. It is small enough for me to hold it in the palm of my hand and do point blank candid shots.
5) Battery life (3/5): With moderate playback, 1 battery allows us to take 200 photos. OEM replacement batteries are $12 each so we had 4 in our little pouch. My wife can go through 2-3 battery per day easily.
5) Low light (4/5): Depending on the amount of light available, iso 400 is about the highest we can go and still get some decent photos. Since the lens can open at F2 at the wide end, its easy to do hand-held night landscape shot at ISO 80.
