Canon PowerShot S5 IS
Overview
The
ultra-powerful 12x optical zoom on the PowerShot S5 IS
means you'll get the shot you want with no compromise,
yet that's only the beginning of what makes this camera
so exciting. The S5 IS is loaded with many of Canon's
latest advanced technologies including the DIGIC III
Image Processor, so both still images and movies are
rendered with fine detail and luminous clarity. And now
ambitious photographers have even greater creative
latitude thanks to an included hot shoe adapter that
allows you to attach Canon Speedlite EX Series external
flashes.

Full-featured, compact 8.0
Megapixel digital camera with a 12x Optical Zoom
PowerShot S5 IS is compact and portable, with
streamlined controls and a sure, steady grip. And you'll
want to take it everywhere, because inside is a level of
photographic power that's truly impressive. 8.0

complete freedom to enlarge an image or any section of
an image and crop to your exact specifications. The 12x
optical zoom brings this compact digital camera into the
realm of serious photography. It has the power to take
you right up onto the stage and into the end zone for
the shot you really want. Zooming is fast and silent
thanks to the ultrasonic motor drive.

Canon Optical Image Stabilizer
Technology and ISO 1600 for steady shooting
Life doesn't give you second chances to capture special
times. That's why the elegant PowerShot S5 IS is
equipped with Canon's acclaimed Optical Image Stabilizer
Technology that automatically detects and corrects
camera shake - one of the leading causes of fuzzy or
blurred shots. So now even when you're zooming in tight,
you can get the steady, crisp, brilliant images you'll
be proud to shoot and share. And Canon's Optical Image
Stabilizer Technology is so convenient to use. It
functions perfectly with or without a flash.
The PowerShot S5 IS features new
ISO 1600 and High ISO Auto settings that reduce the
effects of camera shake and sharpen subjects in
low-light situations, giving you greater flexibility for
shooting.

crisp, clear picture to make shooting, playback and
using the camera’s menu functions especially convenient.
