The 10x zoom 7-70 mm lens on the PowerShot Pro 90 IS, with Canon's shift-type Image Stabilizer (IS) built in, has brought high-resolution and low distortion pictures right to your fingertips. The new PowerShot Pro 90 IS eliminates blurry pictures from shaky hands while also correcting aberrations and obtaining better background blur. In addition, the IS unit is both compact and highly precise thanks to a newly developed mechanism, making the camera both a practical tool and a delight to hold.
