Well I came across the X90 on Ebay and placed a bid and got it for £80 needed a compact for the hols, couldn't take the K5. Am pleased with it so far decent quality images and quite versatile.

One of the first shot's I took in our garden, a decent macro facility it has.

That's a gorgeous shot, the black background really suits that vibrant pink little flower.

I like the image and I also liked the X90 when I had one. The close focus is very impressive.
Best regards, John

I have a X90 but I found the shutter release a bit slow. What settings did you use for this shot please?
