According to our compact camera expert
The Sony DSC-HX90V is a compact camera for the advanced photographer. Thanks to the large image angle of the lens, you can easily photograph the skyline of a city. Zooming in with the 30x optical zoom allows you to effortlessly photograph wild animals in the distance. With the electronic viewfinder, you can create compositions without reflections or bright light on the screen. In the viewfinder, you can see how your image changes when you set a different aperture. With the PlayMemories App on your smartphone, you can control the camera remotely and easily change these settings. You can easily send photos to your phone or tablet via WiFi or NFC. That way, you can share them directly with all of your friends on Facebook or Instagram.

Great camera with a large zoom range. It's nice that you can also zoom with the lens ring, which is more accurate than with the lever around the shutter release button. The small flash works well beyond expectations (indoors). Although the pop-up viewfinder is small, it is a godsend in too bright conditions. In poor light, the shots as a whole are fine, but if you view the entire image, there is a lot of noise and the sharpness is gone. Photographing birds too far away will not give good results in poor light. But you should of course not expect SLR quality for this price. However, you can set a lot on it and on super automatic setting it takes stunningly beautiful photos under strongly varying light conditions, such as in a church with stained glass windows, by photographing an HDR series and composing it into one photo in the camera. Both the interior and the windows are then clearly visible. Image quality is also very good The battery life is excellent. I do have a spare battery, but if you start the day with a full battery, you will not soon be short. Furthermore, it is nice and small for the pocket and you can always carry it with you. So highly recommended!

Excellent device, especially because of the fold-out viewer, so that you can still take a photo/film in bright sunlight, also the many options for wireless photo/video transfer, PC - GSM and even playable on TV, I'm here very happy :-)

I was looking for a small camera for travel. The camera is a bit heavier, but also feels very solid. The camera is easy to operate and you don't have to go through the manual before you understand how it works. I haven't taken many pictures with it yet, but that will certainly change soon when I travel. I am very happy with this camera and highly recommend it. For traveling it is also handy that there is quite a lot of zoom on it, handy for safari or such activities. A real all-rounder!
