Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

The Canon Sure Shot Z90W Caption camera is among the smallest and lightest wide-angle, 3x zoom 35mm cameras available. Its 28-90mm zoom lens lets you shoot with a wide angle to catch the action, or close up for more intimate shots. The auto settings, such as film loading, focus, and exposure, take the guesswork out of your photography. The three-point autofocus system measures the distance to the subject at three different points in both reflected light (passive mode) and infrared signal (active mode) to give you a clean, sharp image every time.

This model features five preset captions that allow you to personalize your pictures. It also has a date/time stamp so you never forget when you shot a particular roll of film. The LCD panel, located on the back of the camera body, lets you read and set the available captions, as well as the time and date. You can also adjust your light settings from the preprogrammed choices: auto, night scene, portrait, close-up, real-time release, personal, and spot. This function, tied to the LCD panel, lets you pick the setting that best fits your shot.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Superb Camera, September 22, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Canon Sure Shot Z90 Zoom 35mm Camera (Electronics)

I am one of these guys that owns too much camera equipment, I did not need another camera, but when I saw the Z90 I just couldnt resist it, very good looking camera and and not too expensive, I bought it, since then I have shot 5 rolls of Fujicolor 400, in every roll the pictures were unusually sharp, right on with focusing and beautiful color, in every respect this is a great camera, the focal range is just wonderful too, 28mm to 90mm, its impossible to go wrong with, anyone whether experienced amateur or a beginner, you cant go wrong,!, in just a few rolls of film, it has become my camera of choice

5.0 out of 5 stars Great compact camera!, April 9, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Canon Sure Shot Z90 Zoom 35mm Camera (Electronics)

This is a great zoom lens camera for the size. Its very compact and easy to handle. You can select a preset focus or use auto focus to decide how close or far you want your picture. The camera knows how much flash to use - all you need to do is focus. For the camera-challenged, like me, this is a great camera. The pictures are crystal clear and I haven't blurred one yet.

3.0 out of 5 stars Expected More, May 25, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Canon Sure Shot Z90 Zoom 35mm Camera (Electronics)

I have had this camera for a couple of months now. Some of the pictures that I have taken are beautiful. The colors are bright and the picture crisp. However, the other half of the photos, mostly outdoors shots are grainy. The camera is easy to use in the Auto mode, but the other functions are difficult to learn. It is also a little heavy and bulky. I prefer a smaller camera-and that's what I expected- but received this instead. It looks neat, though! I will buy an Olympus next time.
