canon coach kit vs canon powershot D990: what is the different between the canon coach kit and the canon D990 silver?
10142
I think the difference is the silver canon is not sold from amazon but 3rd party...I just purchased the coach kit strictly from amazon...so not sure if this helps, but it seemed as if that is the only thing I could come up with.

I bought this box and the m990i cam for my dad for Christmas and he said it fits perfect. But as far as the year difference I don't know, you should be able to get dimensions from both box and camera to make sure! I got the m990i from here and it was about $140 so check to see if that's the same.

The kit 14-42 is the version 2 and therefore on a par with the well regarded 14-45. The photos should be very sharp and clear. Of course, the lens is only part of the story. It is necessary to learn to use the camera body to get the best results.

What is the difference between the DMW-BMB9 (mentioned at the vistek site above, although the picture of the battery there says DMW-BMB9E) and the DMW-BMB9PP that came with the camera and is mentioned in the FZ100 owners manual?Update: I asked this same question of the Panasonic online help and their reply was "They are the same item, just different item numbers. "

The S95 (or in my case, the S90) takes far better macro shots than the X100. Focus is much faster and solid. But the X100 takes 'bokeh' shots much better than the little Canon. I'm keeping both as I believe they complement each other rather well.

Both are nice cameras. I own a700 and a900, bought the a99, difficult to get used to. Totally different beast. If you get one, do not get rid of the 700 until you are convinced. Joe

I'm running the same research and here's the comparison, WX1: in addition to the HD video, its 24mm wide angle is precious in daily shootings (indoors, group pics, ...). It also has 5x zoom. And the CMOS sensor is supposed to be a notch better than CCD. The build quality is good and it's smaller than S90 except the thickness. It's also $100+ cheaper than S90. Battery life is rated at 350 shots v. S90's 220. S90: Manual everything; RAW; F2@28mm; SDHC card; external flash. The DSLR advantages have been the interchangeability for lens and flash. S90 takes another bite on those claims while providing the convenience and accessibility. If you're going up from Point&Shoot, WX1 is the winner; If you're going down from DSLR after the form factor, you'll miss less features with S90. Either is a great camera that will take wonderful pictures in the right hands.

Mistake. I have both cameras and the Canon G9's photo quality can't hold a candle to the Nikon D40. Hopefully you'll still like your G9!

S95 is for serious and budding photographers--people who spend time tweaking images in a good photo program. It has has better lens with wider aperture (for great low-light shots) and is a "faster" camera. The SX230 was Canon's first serious shot at all the smartphone photographers (who don't have an optical telephoto lens).

I just upgraded to the A99 from my A65 (keeping both, and some of my prime lenses that will work on the A99 also). If you shoot a lot of low light and portrait photography (I do) or serious professional work full frame is a big improvement for noise and a better sensor. If you shoot a lot of daylight subjects and sports type photography, and don't want to carry around a much heavier (and slower) camera, or invest in a group of new lenses (the 24-70 Zeiss zoom cost as much as the camera body) you might want to look at the A77II. FYI a lot of the older Minolta lenses are compatible with the A99 and can be had for much cheaper than the full frame Sony lenses.

I just read your posting and it has been a month since you put it up so I don't know if your still interested in a comparison, so I will keep it brief. I got the X100 in July and the S95 a year ago but by coincidence I just took some test shots in the back yard this morning to compare the two as I will be using both at a BBQ on Sunday. The S95 looks good until you see it next to the x100. The X100 is the first digital camera I have owned where the photos look a bit more real than the other digital cameras I have used. I also have a Nikon D7000 and did some test shots while on vacation using it and the Nikon 12-24mm lens ( set at 23mm) and the X100 looks better, sharper than the $1000 Nikon12-24 lens. There are some down sides as is mentioned on many websites, but you can get used to them, or at least I did. On the video, I like the S95 by far as it is easier to get usable footage. The X100 is sharper and cleaner by a little bit, but the focus is not as good as the S95. The X100 is a great camera for what it is, and I really like mine.

Nikon uses one battery in the grip and one in the body of the camera. Canon puts both in the grip, which is arguably better. Still, as long as you charge batteries frequently you won't find yourself taking the grip off to change the body battery often.

I have owned a Cannon S90 and now the Panasonic LX5. I found the S90 wasn't nearly as accurate with white balance and I also had to fiddle around with it too much to get a good pic in some situations. The LX5 while a little bigger is much easier to get a very good shot, meaning much less fiddling. And the updated 2.0 firmware makes it that much better. I'll take a little bigger size any day to get the ease of use and fantastic shots that I get with little effort. IMHO.

Hi Morris. The S95 and S90 are unique. As a subcompact it can be carried in your pocket....SX40 no..no in the pocket. The S95 has incredible low light at wide angle and F2. I used it today to document and help identify some piping in the wall with available light. It was too awkward with the super zoom. This is why you need to bring 2 cameras when traveling. I actually carry 3 including a camcorder which I think is better for video then either super zoom or S95. Many people swear by the DSLR and that works for them

The Targus Digital TG-BGD40 is not compatible with the Nikon D90 cause the Nikon D90 uses a difference kind of battery.

The S95 has a bigger sensor than the SX230, so that in itself is a big plus for the S95.I have owned the SX230 and wasn't too impressed with its white balance and high ISO photos in low light.

Ok so this is what I'm going off of. The Cannon SX10IS is the same price as the P90 but the P90 has 24x zoom and 12.1 MP... The price differential came from somewhere. I'm putting my bets on the image processor. I personally own the SX10IS and I could not be happier. My friend who owns the Cannon Rebel XSi tries to say how his buy is much more justified. So far the only things I have found better is his white balance, optional remote trigger, and the capability to shoot in RAW. Otherwise our cameras are very similar.
