Re: Should I buy a 2nd Hand S90?
  • Personally, one of my biggest annoyances was that in shutter or aperture priority the max iso would never go above iso800, whereas in P mode it would go up to iso1600.

I find this more of a benefit than a drawback given that neither cam has Fuji style ISO capping and that the biggest drop in IQ is at ISO1600 . with the S90, the ISO is capped at 800 in A mode, great IMO, I wish it could be capped to 400 as well .

Here at least , the S90 on the used market is a lot cheaper than a used S95, both IMO Need the frainec grip anyway and I've never had an issue with the rear wheel on my late model S90 .
