Good all around Digital

7 Helpfuls 8 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros Simple controls, good value, good quality photos.
Cons Poor viewfinder, poor placement of menu buttons on back.
Recommended it? Yes

First, I am not a professional. I like to take more artsy than every day shots and would like to make this my art as a hobby. I have a lot of camera experience but this is my first digital. I got a digital because I felt I would have more control over my pictures and I would save money on wasted... Read full review »

Pros Dependable, easy to use, good price, many accessories.
Cons None.
Recommended it? Yes

Out of all the cameras that I've used from the moment that I was a little kid, this camera has been the most dependable camera that I have ever had the pleasure of using.  This camera has been with me all over the world and in many variety of situations.  It has never failed me and has...

Great camera!

Pros Easy to use!  Great zoom!  Great results!
Cons Factory auto setting causes a delay between photos. 
Recommended it? Yes

I love this camera!  I would have said that in the subject line, but there wasn't room.

I never thought I'd give up my 35mm, but I rarely use it any more.  I tried three digital cameras before this one.  None of them gave results that I liked, with or without the... Read full review »

Recommended it? Yes

I bought the Canon Powershot S5 IS in October 2007 to use on a trip to New England. Here are some of the shots taken on that trip: http://www.grandmemories.com/NE2007

The photos show use of the zoom, the macro, and other "normal" shots.

I have used the camera many times since then and... Read full review »

Canon PowerShot? S5 IS Digital Camera is a great buy!

byshannon2003 May 17, 2008
6 Helpfuls 7 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? 3 Comments
Pros A lot of settings, long battery life.
Cons Haven't been able to fine tune it yet.
Recommended it? Yes

I bought this camera because our family had never owned a nice good quality camera before. We got in on sale and are quite pleased with it. I have not been able to customize it on the custom setting, as the flash setting either causes white out, or the picture to be too dark. It could just be my... Read full review »

Cons Lens aberrations and vignetting; some processing artifacts; lacks raw file support
Recommended it? Yes

At the moment, there isn't a camera of this class that offers better range of controls, imaging or performance. I've shot with the camera in all of its modes, and I'm very, very pleased with the quality of the images. Performance is top-notch across the board. Controls are broad and very intuitive...

Pros Versatile settings, Movie Function.
Cons The Lens Cap still comes off too easy. Location of the memory card slot.
Recommended it? Yes

I am a previous owner of the Canon Powershot S2 and wanted to upgrade. For some silly reason, I went and bought the Olympus 560-UZ because it had a more powerful zoom. Not impressed with the poor picture quality, I sold that camera and went and bought this camera. I am very impressed with the... Read full review »

Pros rotating lcd screen, manual features, powerful 10x optical zoom
Cons poor focus
Recommended it? No

I have high expectations when it comes to digital cameras. I was a little concerned with the camera being a 3.2MP camera...especially when I'm so used to 4MP+ cameras. However; loving some of the features (especially the rotating LCD display), being a huge fan of powerful zooms, and being generally... Read full review »

Easy to use - not an SLR but Close

Pros Functions, speed to focus, weight
Cons Size
Recommended it? Yes

We wanted to replace the SONY CyberShot 5 MP camera as my wife wasn't happy with the aperture speed and focusing. I looked at several cameras, and didn't want to have her using the old SLR with nothing but the viewfinder to frame her shots - our kids are a little to active to make that work well...

Canon PowerShot Pro Series S5 IS 8.0MP Digital Camera with 12x Optical Image Stabilized Zoom

The ultimate zoom and a whole lot more. The ultra-powerful 12x optical zoom on the PowerShot S5 IS means you’ll get the shot you want with no compromise, yet that’s only the beginning of what makes this camera so exciting. The S5 IS is loaded with many of Canon’s latest advanced technologies, including the DIGIC III Image Processor, so both still images and movies are rendered with fine detail and luminous clarity. And now ambitious photographers have even greater creative latitude thanks to an included hot shoe adapter that allows you to attach Canon Speedlite EX Series external flashes.
