Canon PowerShot S3 IS, a 6 megapixel point-and-shoot with an SLR design has been updated. The new camera—a Canon S5 IS—is a bit heavier, has a hot-shoe for adding an external flash unit and, best of all, is 8 megapixels. The camera was reviewed yesterday by Theano Nikitas who says, “The Canon S5 IS is one of the better megazooms on the market, but image quality issues may take it down a notch.”
And, I might add, another drawback is that the camera doesn’t shoot in Raw format.
Here’s some specs:
Resolution: 8 megapixels
Hot-shoe takes Canon Speedlite flash units
Focal Range: 36-432mm (35mm equivalent)
ISO: 80-1600
Shutter Speed: 15-1/3200 seconds
