Doesn’t seem as effective as that employed by Canon’s rivals
Such as Panasonic
Noise levels at higher ISO settings disappoint

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.
Sturdy but stylish retro looks, Optical image stabiliser, Fast auto focus
Light on features, Scroll wheel not intuitive
Its 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, well overlook the lack of fe...
Abstract: Among the masses of shoot from the hip compact digital cameras on the market, the first thing that sets the Canon Ixus 90 IS apart is its elegant styling. The all-metal casing and sharp lines say this is a precision tool, not a toy. The second is its m...
Stylish retro design; optical image stabilizer; fast auto focus
Scroll wheel not intuitive; high noise level above ISO 800
Despite a paucity of features, the IXUS 90 feels substantial, thanks to its sturdy build, quirky controls, large screen and respectable picture quality.

Abstract: Sie verfügt über bewegliche Linsen im Objektiv, die ungewolltes Wackeln während der Aufnahme ausgleichen sollen. Die 3-Zoll-Vorschau neigt allerdings bei schwachem Umgebungslicht zu stärkerem Rauschen, und die Bedienelemente sind teils gewöhnungs-bedü...
Ansprechende Fotoqualität, heller und großer Kontrollbildschirm, optischer Bildstabilisator, recht kurze Auslöseverzögerung: Die Canon Ixus 90 IS hinterließ einen guten Gesamteindruck....
Abstract: Scharfe Bilder, schöne FarbenIn der Ixus 90 IS steckt ein 10-Megapixel-Sensor, der im Messlabor eine hohe Auflösung erreicht, die auch bei höheren ISO-Empfindlichkeiten weniger stark einbricht als bei vielen Klassen-Konkurrenten. Bis ISO 200 bleiben di...
Abstract: Canon überrascht uns bei dieser Kamera mit einem neuen, eckigeren Design. Das silberfarbene Gehäuse ist sehr gut verarbeitet und verpasst der Ixus 90 IS einen wertigen Look. Da sie etwas schwerer ist (178 Gramm), liegt sie auch sehr gut in der Hand. ...
