Canon PowerShot® S5 IS Digital Camera
1 of 1 found this helpful I owned a Canon PowerShot® S5 IS Digital Camera in the past and made the mistake of selling it - I missed it so much I bought another.
To my mind it’s the best of the bunch of the compact digital bridge cameras. It does not have all the frills and features of the Fuji S100FS (which I have also owned), but then again it’s about a third of the size and weight and the batteries last four times as long. Nor does it have the x18 zoom of the Limux FZ18 (again I have owned on), but the x12 zoom is usable throughout its range and the dynamic range is superior and unlike the FZ18 it has a solid, robust feel.
The Electronic View Finder is as good as the best of them and the twist and tilt LCD is a real bonus, if like me you're getting to old to lie down on the ground to take low level shots you will really appreciate it.
Most importantly of course it takes good photographs, the 8MP sensor is average by modern standards but it’s physically larger than most and this results in good dynamic range.
If I had to find a fault then it would be then lens cap - despite the fact that this is the 5th model in the series, the lens cap design which on the S2 could be described as truly dreadful and prone to falling off, the S5 version is merely adequate and still has a tendency to “pop off” If you want a more secure lens cap and/or the ability to use filters, then cheap adapter tubes (which also protect the zoom travel), with protective filter and snappy lens cap can be had on Ebay for around £10 – well worth it in my view.
