Key Advantages

The Sony DSC-H90 offers a powerful 26x optical zoom, ideal for capturing distant subjects with clarity. Its 16.1-megapixel sensor ensures detailed and vibrant photos. Optical SteadyShot helps keep images sharp even in low light or at longer zoom range. A 3-inch LCD provides a bright and clear view for composing shots. The camera supports HD video recording to capture moments with sound and motion. Compatibility with SDXC cards allows flexible and high-capacity memory options.

Limitations

While the DSC-H90 offers manual controls, it lacks a built-in viewfinder, requiring reliance on the LCD which may be difficult to see in bright sunlight. The sensor is a CCD rather than CMOS, which can limit low-light performance and video capabilities compared to newer models. The maximum video resolution is limited to 720p, which is below current HD standards. The camera does not feature Wi-Fi or advanced connectivity options. Battery life, although sufficient, may be shorter compared to more recent cameras. Autofocus performance may be slower especially in low-contrast scenes.
