Hi Tim and Miserere The S90 is a great little camera. Just a couple of notes.
You most likely shoot RAW, but if you use JPG, Canon's default compression is is the mid-level that they call "fine." I'm guessing you would prefer "superfine." To change it, you need to move from Auto to Program. They don't even give you the option in auto. The local Canon expert says that Canon assumes that most of their point and shoot customers share photos in email and, if they print at all, never make anything larger than a 4x6 print. I guess they feel the smaller file size is more important. As for the oddities of Auto - a lot of the camera makers disable a variety of features in auto. They feel they are protecting their customers from accidentally changing settings that would give them worse than average photos.
