| Canon PowerShot S5 IS Review By: tech.co.uk staff - techradar.com Reviews Published on: 8/1/2007 8:40 AM | | The Canon Powershot S5 IS is a little smaller than an SLR, you can't change the lens and there's no through-the-lens optical viewfinder. Instead, you get a fixed 12x zoom lens, an electronic viewfinder and no option for shooting RAW files. What you do get is one hell of a compact camera....read the full review | |

5 of 5 Most Features, Best Value in sub-SLR world Tuesday, March 18, 2008
Gadget Guy from Algonquin, IL
What a camera! I upgraded from the S3IS, and never looked back. Improvements include 8MP (vs. 6MP), hot show for ext. flash, no 1GB limit to videos, and DIGIC III processor (vs. DIGIC II).
Love the long zoom. Love the quality of the video. Love that it takes AA batteries.
Lots of scene modes for quick photos, and lots of user-adjusted settings if you want to play with aperture, ISO, etc.
I bought a lens adapter for filters (just 3 for now), and I bought a .66 wide angle lens, which is great for wide outdoor shots, especially large groups or live sports events.
When I travel light, I take my Canon SD870IS. When I want maximum flexibility, I bring the S5IS with filters and lens, AND the SD870IS (in the same fairly small camera bag).
So may things I haven't even tried yet. I will never get bored of all the options.
Start slow with the excellent presets/automatic settings, and expand to more custom options at your discretion. Was this review helpful?  
5 of 5 Great Camera for a Great Price Tuesday, March 04, 2008
A Customer from Portland, OR
This camera is of fairly high quality, but only for the fraction of the price of "professional models." It is easy to use and not as big as the advertisements lead one to believe.
IF it were stolen I'd buy another. Was this review helpful?

5 of 5 Overall - Great Vaule! Wednesday, December 26, 2007
A Customer from Hamilton, Oh
I've had a more expensive high end digital camera for several years now. I bought this for my son and was very surprised by it's performance. Anyone can take this camera out of the box and take exceptional photos. With a little playing around you'll quickly learn additional options and enhancements for your photo taking. I like the fact that this camera takes regular rechargable batteries! The down side -- camera will tell you when you need the flash, but you must manually flip the flash up for it to work. Once you get use to it, it's not that big of a deal. Was this review helpful?
5 of 5 Great Camera/Great Price Wednesday, November 28, 2007
A Customer from Miles Texas
I wanted an SLR camera, but can't afford one. This is as close as you can get to one, and it is 1/4 of the price. The zoom is excellant and so is the image stabilazation. The action photo's are great (like kid's basketball games, etc.) with no blurring. I live in the country and they were spraying the cotton with an airplane. I took the camera out and got a perfect picture of the plane as it passed in front of me (about 100 yds off). I'm very impressed so far. Only had the camera for a couple of months.

4 of 5 Color comment Monday, August 20, 2007
Russ from Hyde Park, NY
I had an S1, S2 and now the S5IS. All were good but this one is the best as far as the resolution and light sensitivity. I have small complaint about the zooming on the S5. It might be the digital OR the optical but this is what happens at several zoom levels. It isn't as good as the others whereas, the color convergence is notably off target when a picture is magnified on a PC. This creates various color borders and slight overlap around the subjects, which never happened with the earlier versions of this camera. I've done several tests to rule out operator error and even thought of returning the camera because of it, but the benefits outweigh this occurance. Was this review helpful?
