5 out of 5 stars Best Camera For the Price   July 5, 2008
Me and my wife have bought 3 digital cameras over the years always going with kodak easy shares. But this camera blows all others out of the water. We have never taken such nice pictures and all the extra functions are awesome. My wife really likes the color pic funtion. You will be very happy with this camera if you are a beginner to advanced photographer. We could not be happier with this camera.


4 out of 5 stars Amazing Pictures   July 4, 2008
I've been researching what camera I should get next for a couple of months before I settled for the Canon Powershot S5 IS. My priorities were a good optical zoom, taking pictures of moving objects, nighttime pictures and of course a decent price. You can take really good pictures in the color accent mode. In my opinion this camera was the best choice I could have made. The reason for not giving it five is the noise in some of the images taken in sports mode.


5 out of 5 stars Awesome for the price and features   July 3, 2008

This is a great camera for the price. It's my first camera in the S range so I don't have the same history that other reviewers have. Almost everything is 'pro' with the exception of a couple minor issues: Yes, the lens cap sucks - buy the conversion adapter (Canon's or a metal one) and add a filter and cap. I like the idea of being able to take pictures while doing video but it freezes the video frame for a second and the 'click' of the shutter is also recorded. I think there might be a way to turn that off but I have to investigate further. Otherwise, if you want a 12x zoom that can be used with 30 fps video (unusual) and a great digital camera, don't hesitate to get the S5.

I purchased this camera for my mother. She loves the thing to death. The only complaint I really have about it and I read in the reviews before purchasing was that the memory card slot is located in the same location as the batteries. Other then that the digital stabilization is magnificent, and the extra lenses that allow for Micro photography are a steal. If your looking for a cheap, but high Optical Zoom, and lens attachments, and don't mind auto focus this camera is for you.

I have been using this camera to take bird pictures and it has performed superbly. I can take a picture of a bird across the street high in a tree and zoom in on it and you can see the eye lashes.....literally! An amazing camera and I know nothing about how to take pictures or adjust the settings on a camera. I just put it on Auto and zoom in and press the shutter. I love it!
