The captain reported that after landing, he turned onto what he thought was a 90-degree taxiway. He said that he "cut the corner too tight resulting in the left propeller striking a taxiway light." An examination of the airplane showed no anomalies which could have contributed to the incident.
Probable Cause: the pilot's failure to maintain clearance from the taxiway light. Factors contributing to the incident were the crew's inadequate visual lookout and the taxiway light.
