Canon PowerShot® S5 IS Appareil Photo Numérique

Pros: Low ISO photos are incomparable! Feels right in my hand, great size/weight.

Cons:

NOISY low light photos. Poor stamina. Battery with memory card. Pooped on me.

The Bottom Line: The S3 was exquisite.  This is ... NOT.  For all its mumbo jumbo and high tech additions, they  have sacrificed quality. 

Review: Disappointed! That is me in a nutshell. I was the proud owner of this model's predecessor, the S3 from the previous year. I LOVED it. Its photos were magical. The color was divine and the resolution, the way it felt in my hand ... everything! ...

Pros: 10x optical zoom, image stabilization

Cons: Pathetic LCD for camera in this price range

The Bottom Line: Not recommended, pricey attempt to do it all. Interesting failure that may start a trend. Can get more usable cameras for less. Wait for the next model.

Review: I recently needed to purchase a digital camera. Having had really good results with my Canon photo printer I looked to Canon's products. The requirements were enough features to keep me interested. While being easy enough to use that my wife who is ...

Pros: inexpensive phone with a lot of features

Cons: extremly poor battrey life

Review: purchased the sony ericsson z310a cell phone online from AT&T/Cingular. I did a lot of research prior to purchase and thought I was making a good decision. I wish I had made a different decision. The phone is adequate and delivers everything the website ...

Pros: Fast, clear pictures, good focal range

Cons: Horrible reliability record, poor customer service

The Bottom Line: I recommend that anyone considering Canon products should be aware that Canon will not service their flawed product.

Review: When I bought the PowerShot S5 IS at Christmas time, I really thought I had done my homework. It took great pictures and took pictures with great speed. Additionally, it had great focal range, snapping sharp pictures even at a good distance. My ...

Pros: Zoom - Movie Mode

Cons: Focusing Issues - Unreasonable support

The Bottom Line: Be careful and don't trust your import photos to any one camera. You may regret it in the end. I did.

Review: I have been a long time fan of Olympus digital cameras for many years. While looking to upgrade to a newer camera a few months ago, the S1 IS caught my eye. I waited for it's release and purchased it when it became available. Other than some frequent ...

Pros: Would be nice if it would not fail.

Cons: CCD problems; customer-relation problems.

Review: I used a Canon powershot S1-IS for 1 1/2 year in the tropics; then it stopped working! The CCD showed only purple smears on a black background. Canon admits this same problem for about 20 other camera's, but not for the S1-IS, so no free repair. ...
