I loved the T90. Anyone remember "Hexa-Photo-Cybernetics", the rather unwieldy slogan Canon used in its ad campaign? The problem with the T90 is that most of them for sale have darkened LCDs, and Canon hasn't had replacement parts for years. I wouldn't buy one now with the intention of using it for a lot of years. Contax RTS III has the same problem. LCDs are dying in them prematurely. I have an EOS-RT as well. It's in a drawer somewhere in my studio. Haven't used it in ages. I guess I ought to dig it out and make sure it still works, and eBay it if it does. Not much point in keeping it if I never use it.
