PowerShot S90! users.. Come In!!

Auto White balance better then 40D and exposure spot-on most of the time. Better than 31fd. IMO noise reduction looks more natural the LX3 in reviews. The problem with 31fd and LX3 is that they reduced noise by some sort of "patching" or "cut and paste" to cover the noises. S90 tends to blur away uniformly at high ISO but leaves edges intact.

That's my personal impression with no scientific evidence. All based on observations.

But just remember it can never be better than a xxxxD, xxxD or xxD. But almost matches a DSLR.

Hi!

Im considering buying s90. any ideas hows the photo quality and sharpness for indoor shots under artificial lighting??

thanks lots!

hi everyone... i just got myself a s90 few weeks back, luv it much!

got it at MS for sgd 660 and comes with only a 8GB and a IXUS case (disappointed canon is selling the s90 case separately ).
MS also provides the screen protector film which i know other shops may not have.

i compared it recently with a sx210 in terms of low light shooting (even at Auto mode), s90 wins hands down!

Ditto, any kind soul here? Wish to improve the ergonomics of its

It's a great little camera; and a great complement to an SLR system for those times when you want decent quality but don't want to haul a load of gear around.

hi s90 users, did anyone notice if you half-press the shutter release button when you are in an office environment with loads of florescent tube lights, would your s90 screen flicker?? suspect its the refresh rate of the screen and just needed assurance from gurus here that this is normal.

film this using my iphone, here's what i mean:

[iluvs90]

Thanks leowyien... anyone else thinks it's something i should be worried about?

I think it's the flickering rate of the flourescent tubes.. been discussed before..

but i don't think it affects the photo..

Hi

IMO, even at ISO100 we can see more noise on the G7 as compared to S90.


G7 vs S90 @ iso100 (not much of a diff)

G7:

S90

ok ppl, i've contacted the person selling the grip and he's informed me he can ship up to 5 grips in one go (shipping charges USD$6).

converted to SGD it's probably around S$50 each. Need one more person to be interested!

Will be ordering latest thursday afternoon because his next shipping schedule is on friday.

first come first served!

i have an existing dry cabinet on for my dslrs. should i put the s90 in as well?

i do.. but i've heard some saying to keep check with the humidity levels.. because of the LCD screen.. Too dry the LCD screen will "dry up" or something like that.. between 40-50% shud be optimum...

pros, please correct me if i'm wrong!

@@ need to be so meticulous in storing the camera?? Haha I Normally don bother by this too much and just let it hibernates just inside my room away from direct sunlight.. Just my 2 cents. Haha.. Of course good habit/practice will definitely prolong the camera itself. Wish to learn More of taking good care of our babey s90 from experts like you all
