What is it: Stylish 10-megapixel compact
What we think: When a camera is this good-looking and takes respectable pictures, we'll forgive the lack of features
What you need to know
Reviewed on: 14 March 2008
Tags: canon, frame, tags, scroll
We like:
Sturdy but stylish retro looks; huge, 76mm (3-inch) screen
We don't like:
Light on features; scroll wheel needs some work
You might also need:
SD or SDHC cards
CNET UK judgement:
It's hard to resist an IXUS, even if they do demand a premium for styling rather than features. When a camera looks and feels as good as the retro-angled Canon Digital IXUS 90 IS, with its huge screen and quirky controls, we'll overlook the lack of features and merely decent image quality

Canon PowerShot A2100 IS
We wish it were slightly faster, but it offers a useful 6x zoom and great photo quality
Canon PowerShot A480
Fuss-free compact that takes good photos given the price. Just don't expect too much from it
Canon Digital IXUS 990 IS
Good camera, but it's underspecified and overpriced, even compared to other IXUS models
Fujifilm FinePix S1500
Its lens and image quality aren't great, but it's a good option for beginner photographers

Are Micro Four Thirds cameras EVIL?
