Does not do HD videos/battery life is very short
This camera does not do HD videos and in fact the videos out of this camera look no better than what smartphones can do. This is a huge oversight and a camera that costs this much should be able to do HD, something other cameras in this price range and size have been able to do now for over a year.
Also, the battery life is quite bad and will typically not even last you through the day of usage.
For me, these negatives outweigh any positives given that there is a camera that performs better image-wise, can do HD videos and has longer battery life, the Panasonic LX3 or Leica D-LUX 4 (these two are basically the same camera).

Ideal for Candids
This is the camera I've always wanted for candids--small, unobtrusive, completely silent and with good low-light capability. We've used it for a party, work events, and a musical recital, and it's perfect for getting un-self-conscious shots of people. You don't need to fire a flash in people's faces, and it can be set to operate absolutely silently.
This isn't a perfect camera. I'd like a longer zoom range and more speed at the tele end. I'd like the face detection to work better (it's fooled by music stands, for some reason). Low-light image quality could be better, though it's the best I've seen in a small camera. They could put on a little better grip, or at least put some rubber on the grip area.
That said, if you like to photograph people as they naturally act in the places where you meet them, you will *love* this camera.

superb carry-around camera
If you are looking for a high quality camera to put in your pocket when you don't want to pack your SLR, look no further.
I was also pleased to see the included software from Canon was significantly improved over that delivered earlier with my SLR.

Excellent Camera... Just what I was looking for...
I was a little hesitant to by a brand new model of Canon, but this camera seemed to have all the features I was looking for. I was pleasantly surprised at how compact and light it was, despite the fact that it's jam packed with great features. The pictures it takes are beautiful... such an improvement over my past small/lightweight cameras (various Cannons). I haven't had a chance to use all the features in this camera, but so far so good!

BEST COMPACT CAMERA ON THE PLANET
The Canon S90 is so handy that my WIFE loves it--With image quality so good that a SERIOUS photographer loves it too.
The Canon S90 "just works." It's so small, light, and easy to use, that I always have it with me and always get great image quality. (You don't get great pictures if the camera's too bothersome to bring along.)
Panasonic's LX3 is the one other compact that matches S90 image quality--But the LX3's a little too big for my pockets and its low light images are noisier. What the LX3 DOES offer are much wider angle images (24mm--18mm with adapter lens, vs. the S90's 28mm). For wide and ultra-wide angle shooting, I use the LX3--For everything else (convenience, and low light) I use the S90. Both cameras are excellent.
The S90 (and LX3) are the ONLY compacts with image quality good enough to blend into my Nikon D700 "slide shows."
Finally, a HUGE plus, the S90 (and LX3) shoot in RAW, not just JPEG. Their RAW format lets me do AMAZING things with their images in digital editors like Adobe Camera Raw/Photoshop, Nikon Capture NX2, and DxO Optics Pro.

Canon Cameras HistoryCanon Corporation is a world-known manufacturer of office equipment ranging from printers and fax machines to scanners and copying machines.
The amount of photographic equipment produced by Canon is rather moderate in comparison to their other products. But it is in demand around the world. Don’t forget that it is the photographic cameras that the company began its business with.
As early as in 1933 Goro Yoshida and his brother-in-law, Sabura, founded the Precision Optical Instruments Laboratory in Tokyo. Their goal was to create a Japanese camera and make it known throughout the world. To begin with, the young people bought up and examined most advanced German models of that day. The enterprise was sponsored by Takeshi Mitarai, best friend of Uchida, a prosperous doctor, who later became president of the company.
In the following year, 1934, Japan's first domestically-made 35mm focal-plane shutter camera “was born” and was named "Kwanon" - after the Buddhist Goddess of Mercy. The trademark Canon was registered a year later.
The first consumer model Hansa Canon appeared in 1937 and the le... More About Canon Cameras |
