 p.2 #20 · Canon S90 - I'm very impressed! | |
Yeah its much more interesting reading the same threads over and over about what lens is best for going to Africa, should I switch to Nikon, should I get a 40D or a 1Ds3, is the 17-40 sharper than the 16-35, post a pic of how great you lens is and include as many pics of your cat and brick wall as you can, and pixel bating ad nauseam.
Heaven forbid a CANON camera is discussed that has a very unique niche for serious photogs that can be taken anywhere discreetly. With less than 10 threads on this camera, I can see that the Canon SLR forum is being inundated with something other than the usual hyperbole.
Everything in photography is about compromise. No one disputes the IMAGE quality of this camera versus an SLR is inferior, however for some of us the UTILITY is more important. While I am enjoying even more photographic opportunities, you can sit at your computer and argue about IQ.

I've been thinking about one of these for the briefcase for a long time, this looks like a good bet. Love the form factor. One problem I keep having on P&S cameras from Canon is the little cover gizmo over the front of the lens...I've had three and on all three, it broke and needed to go in. Hope this one is better...could have just been bad luck....3 is not much of a sample, but still, makes me wonder...
