My name is Marawan. I Like Cameras so much .It is very good if you want to create a movie or video to post on Facebook or twitter or Instagram especially YouTube. Its only problem is the battery.

The Powershot S5 IS - the 4th offering in the mega zoom Powershot lineup fro Canon. The camera is what you could call a pro-sumer between a Pro SLR and a consumer standard Point and Shoot. the 8 MP camera has a 12X optical and 4X digital zoom. the camera has tons of custoizations and settings that you could spend hrs discovering and playing around with but at the same time has a competent Auto mode for the evey day shots. The 8 MP with camera takes highly pleasing photos with great contract and sharpness. needs nearly no touchup in PC for std 6X4 prints. and te mage zoo with Image stabilization allows for good action and wildlife photographs for those vacations. the video @ 30 fps is also good and allows zooming doring shooting whic is a feature soe other Cameras lack The swivel Camcorder like LCD screen is a feature available on the Poweershot Is series and is s feature you would really like while trying to take a shot of the Rocefeller Cristmas tree over the heads of 500 avid tourists :)

I just got it and am amazed. It has great pics! I still don't know about 80% of what it can do, but I am very pleased with what I know. I got a tripod, recharabe batteies/charger, canon carrying pouch, and a 2GB memory card included in my package. This is my first "big" camera and I am excited about traveling with it.

This is the third Canon Camera of this type I have owned. As they come out with a new one, I try to upgrade, but this time I have kept this one longer than usual. It isn't for everyone, because it is bigger and can't just be stashed in your small purse, but mine goes everywhere with me. I take amazing pictures with this camera and everyone raves about them. You can zoom right up on somethingand take a great picture and it is an autofocus, so that makes it especially easy. I would highly recommend any of the IS cameras from Canon, or actually any Canon at all.

The canon powershot S5 IS digital camera is the perfect camera if you want to take proffesional photographs like the proffesionals do. The style of the canon digital camera is really plain and only has one color black which makes it boring because black is not exciting at all. You can take amazing photographs with the canon powershot S5 IS digital camera plus you can video record which comes out amazingly great. The canon powershot S5 IS digital camera is a bit big a weights a litttle bit too which is not really good to carry around like other cameras. If you want a portable camera this is not for you at all. But if you want to take professional photographs and feel like a profesional then you the canon powershot S5 IS digital camera is for you. In my opinion, the canon powershot S5 IS digital camera is a great camera but it not portable but its still really great for beggining your career as a photographer.

The Canon S5 IS has surprised me and made me look good among my friends and co-workers.  I cannot compare it to others but I have read reviews before making my decision and I've found them to be spot on. The camera has a wonderful zoom. The ease of use is great.  The pictures have turned out to be contest worthy photos. I have, however, had some trouble with keeping the camera stabilized when taking pictures. I have to find a prop to get clear (unshaky shots). Sorry I'm not techy enough to go into more detail.

I absolutely love the Canon PowerShot S5 IS Digital Camera!!! I received the Canon PowerShot S5 IS Digital Camera as a Christmas present a few years ago. The Canon PowerShot S5 IS Digital Camera was my first expensive digital camera and my first digital camera with a large zoom. I love that it has such a great zoom. The zoom was the main reason that I wanted this camera. The Canon PowerShot S5 IS Digital Camera has a lot of options to use on it. I really don't use any of the extra options. I pretty much just use the auto mode and zoom in to where I want it to be and that is it. The only downside to this camera is the size. It is a larger camera. It will not fit into a pocket, but I did not expect it to. Bottom line: This is a great camera!

I bought the Canon - Powershot S5 IS camera because I knew that over the years Canon was a trusted name when it came to photography. I searched many brands only to find this one was just what I needed for a special family vacation. It's easy to use and to figure out. Plus, it gives great photos. Also, there are many features on this camera that a regular camera doesn't always have. I especially like all the options it gives for taking photos (ex: Sport, Landscape, etc). Another neat feature it has is the Stitch Assist. I use it for panoramic photos! The only reason I don't give it 5 Stars is because after using it for many years, the auto focus doesn't focus like it did in the beginning. So sometimes pictures turn our blurry. ~ Overall, it has been a good camera though!

I love this camera! I had a Kodak Easy Share (which I still use to carry around in my purse for those convenient "kodak moments"...) I thought that one took great pictures. Not until I tried the Canon PowerShot S5 IS Digital Camera did I realize what a HUGE difference there was! When comparing pictures, the Canon Powershot S5 ID Digital Camera 's pictures have so much more depth. The lighting and color vary drastically. In up close pictures you can really see the color and shades of someone's eyes. There is shading in these pictures giving them depth that you cannot even notice in pictures from other cheaper cameras. All this I noticed while in the Automatic Setting. The pictures really look professional! I would definitly recommend this camera to any aspiring photographers out there. There are a lot of neat options to choose from to enhance the quality of the pictures even more. It was also fairly easy for me to figure out how to use--which is a plus for someone technical illiterate like me!
