Customer Reviews:
- Great Camera!: What a wonderful camera for in between beginner and expert! The only thing about it that I'm not so happy about is the lens cap falls off easily. Fast shutter speed. Great features!
- All Eyes On Me: Have you ever felt like a Hollywood Star? Well, the Canon Powershot S5 IS can give you that feeling in a gathering. Since I bought this camera in December'08 there has not been a time people have not asked me this question, "where did you buy this camera?". Once I give my answer, what follows next is "wow,that's a nice camera".
This camera is excellent! It takes quality pictures. I love the vedeo recording function. It takes up to ONE HOUR of video. We take our family pictures using the auto-shot function without asking a friend.
I highly recommend it to any one who is looking for a camera that gives you the value of your money. I'm still learning how to use the other features, but I have not have ANY problem with this camera.
- Great camera!: I love this camera. The sport shots I've taken with this camera have really turned out nice. I'm a little disappointed in shots taken inside on the Auto setting, they tend to be dark. I'm new at using the camera, so I might be doing something wrong. I would prefer an auto flash, but this doesn't have it. You have to manually flip up the flash. I think for the price, and the features you get with this camera, it's a good buy. I would buy it again!
- Muy buena Cámara: Muy buena cámara, su zoom es muy poderoso por lo que es recomendable comprar adicionalmente un tripode para poder utilizarlo al máximo.
- Nice step up from the typical P&S: I've had this camera for about 2 months now. Overall, very satisfied with the performance other than the noise level when using ISO>800. Great movie mode w/ the ability to take stills while recording a movie (this is the main reason I didn't get a full DSLR). The S5 got even better with the addition of a Sunpak PZ40 flash and lensmateonline.com adapter w/ Raynox 6600 wide angle converter. I recommend this set up for anyone not needing a DSLR.
