Canon S90 vs. Panasonic LX5

August 2, 2010

I received a couple of emails asking which camera I’d prefer – the Canon S90 or the Panasonic LX5.
Put a gun to my head, and I’d recommend that the average person go with the Canon S90.
Here’s why:
The LX5 goes 24mm at its widest vs. 28mm for the S90, and the hotshoe gives the ability to [...]

Leica X1 vs. Canon S90 vs. Panasonic LX5

July 31, 2010

Adorama now has the red-hot new Leica X1 point-and-shoot in stock.
The Leica name imparts magic and thus commands a big price premium, but 2 grand seems excessive when you can get the amazing Canon S90 and Panasonic LX5 for a fifth and quarter of the LX5’s price, respectively.
Getting the S90 or LX5 also leaves a [...]

Adorama Printing Service Review

July 28, 2010

(this looks amazing in a 20×30 inch print!)
If there’s one area of photography I’ve been missing out on, it’s printing. I take at least 100 photos a week, but haven’t made a print of a photo in years, and never one above 5×7.
