Canon EOS 90D Review
The Canon EOS 90D proves that DSLRs are not dead, at least not yet. In fact, most reviewers really liked the Canon 90D, which uses a 32.5MP APS-C image sensor, praising the camera's comfortable, weather-sealed build; excellent image quality; fast shooting ability (10fps), and decent 4K video with no cropping. The 90D is still a DSLR though, and now that smaller, lighter and more capable mirrorless cameras seem to be the wave of the future (Canon's svelte, by comparison, M6 Mark II mirrorless uses the exact same image sensor as the 90D), some reviewers knocked the 90D for seeming a bit out-of-date, at least in terms of form factor. While the 90D might not be revolutionary, it's still a solid DSLR offering from Canon and a great choice for photo enthusiasts, wildlife photographers who want to get closer to their subjects thanks to APS-C's 1.6x "crop factor," and anyone looking for a significant step up from their entry-level camera or even from their smartphone.

"Had Canon equipped the 90D with the 7D II’s viewfinder AF system, it could have had a leader in all respects. But for now, the upgrades across the board still allow the 90D and DSLRs to remain relevant and compelling to those who prefer their form factor and viewfinder to smaller mirrorless cameras with all-electronic composition." - Cameralabs, read the full review here.
