Sony Cyber-shot HX90V

A pocket travel zoom with real reach: the HX90V (2015) packs a 30x 24-720mm Zeiss lens, a pop-up viewfinder, a 180° flip screen, GPS and Wi-Fi into a 245 g body. The 18 MP 1/2.3-inch sensor is happiest in daylight.

📝 How suitability scores are calculated GearScore™ genre scores are calculated from this camera's verified specifications — autofocus, sensor, weight, weather sealing and more — weighted by what matters for each type of photography. Where a spec sheet misses something (e.g. a manual-focus rangefinder for street), we apply a documented editorial adjustment. Scores are not based on customer reviews. See our full methodology →
