Canon PowerShot S5 review
According to Mark Goldstein: “On its evaluative setting, metering is a bit hit and miss: on occasions the Canon S5 camera will underexpose, so that images benefit from the application of Photoshop Levels to retrieve shadow detail, which is fair enough. At other times though – and more pronounced under the trying likes of strong sunshine – highlights are totally blown, smoothing out fold detail in a white shirt for example. However, noise seems to be more problematic, even when shooting in daylight.”

Mark continues: “Ultimately the Canon PowerShot S5 IS camera is something of a jack-of-all-trades – perhaps even a Swiss Army knife of a camera (though it doesn't play MP3s), and there's certainly more of a focus on shooting movies than many enthusiast cameras, with stereo sound (Wave format) offered, a long play option, and a nicely smooth and quiet zoom action thanks to that Ultrasonic Motor (USM).” You want to learn more about the Canon PowerShot digital camera?

But as we all know Photography is a pretty big subject to publish about so Mark decided to focus on some hot key points like mentioning all new introductions, reviews, reports from events like PMA and Photokina, sharing some impressive and creative photos and Mark's sole perspective of his feeling about this fascinating world of Digital Imaging.

Canon PowerShot S5 review at PhotographyBLOG : DIWA Awards member Mark Goldstein from PhotographyBLOG has reviewed the Canon PowerShot S5 IS Megazoom camera. The Canon Powershot S5 camera features Super Macro mode with 0cm shooting distance and optional Close-Up lens 500D (58mm) allow for detailed macro photography. Safety Zoom allows users to extend the camera's zoom range without interpolation affecting image quality - images can be captured at up to 24x zoom with enough resolution for lab-quality postcard (10 x 15cm) prints. Photographers can also enable the Digital Tele-Converter3 feature for added telephoto reach (1.6x or 2.0x) on every shot, without the reduction in aperture typically caused by optical tele-converters.
