What's Hot

Stylish retro design, sharp images, fast start-up time

What's Not

Slow shot-to-shot time, burst mode sluggish, controls can be fiddly

The Final Word

Another solid compact camera from Canon, the IXUS 90IS packs in image stabilisation and good image quality. It is only let down by sometimes sluggish performance and some slightly annoying controls.
