Bathroom fan help

Sorry about the blurry pic. I am looking to renovate my bathroom. One of my first projects is to get a new fan. However, I am slightly concerned about the location. It's not too close to the shower, and it's on the lower end of a sloped roof. I'm worried that it won't be enough to effectively pull the moisture out of the room.

I am considering the possibility of moving the fan so that it is adjacent to the shower itself. This wouldn't require a ton of extra work considering what I'm already planning, but it would add an odd bump out next to the shower. Not sure that it's worth doing for the extra ability to pull the moisture out.

I'm also considering an inline fan. The bathroom is approximately 536 cubic feet and I'm thinking I need a fan that pulls at least 110 cfm.

Any thoughts on this would be greatly appreciated. I'm really looking for anyone who will ether confirm or challenge my thoughts on this project.

Thanks!

Chris
