First, because the camera is shaped like a used bar of soap, it's hard to get a good grip on. So go to B&H and order a Flip-bac G3 stick-on front grip. It's a huge help in holding the camera and doesn't stick out further than the lens, so it doesn't impede pocketability. They are about $10.

Thank You ! so much for that bit of advice.

I agree; the S90 is like trying to hold a wet bar of soap.

I went to B&H and brought up the Flipbac G3 and it says "No Longer Available"

I then went to Ebay and searched and found them under the part-number FBG3; pictures of the package show them as G3; but, in order to find all possible sources, you must type in FBG3.

All that I saw available are from Japan and cost right at $12.00 with free s&h.

I now have one on the way; I figure if it prevents me dropping the camera one time that it is worth the cost.

I did not have any luck in finding the Lensmate attachment at Lensmate, Amazon, or Ebay.
