Canon S90 | Wired.com Product Reviews

This looks like a deal changer on pocket cameras.

Canon S90 | Wired.com Product Reviews:

"The first, and most important is the cam's glass. It's got a 28-105mm equivalent lens, so there's nice wide angle at the short end, perfect for large group shots and landscapes.

But even better is the speed of the lens — it goes down to f2.

This is huge. Seriously. A small camera with a fast lens completely changes the game, because it lets you avoid the thing that's been ruining the pictures you're taking inside: the flash. Because the S90 can grab so much light, we were able to shoot at reasonable shutter speeds inside without the flash, taking photos of kids that stopped their incessant action without the washed-out, frozen-in-time look that a flash always seems to impart."
