The power to excel – any time, anywhere



High performance optics
A powerful 12x optical zoom lens features Canon’s renowned optical Image Stabilizer technology to counteract camera shake. An Ultrasonic Motor (USM) ensures fast and near-silent operation1. UD lens technology and SuperSpectra coating reduce chromatic aberrations, flare and ghosting for sharp images with superb colour accuracy.

Resolution
An 8.0 Megapixel sensor captures the fine detail in every scene, enabling you to crop or enlarge images and create large-scale prints.

Extensive movie options
Shoot 30fps VGA quality movies with stereo sound, or record QVGA movies at 60fps and analyse in sharp slow motion. Make full resolution stills while recording with the Photo in Movie feature.

DIGIC III with iSAPS
Canon's DIGIC III processor provides lightning quick responses, superb image quality and advanced noise reduction for cleaner images at high ISO speeds. iSAPS technology analyses each scene to optimise key camera settings even before a shot is taken.

Face Detection Technology
Face Detection AF/AE/FE ensures superb people shots by automatically detecting up to 9 faces in the frame and selecting the optimum focus, exposure and flash settings. In Movie mode, Face Detection AF/AE achieves accurate exposure and focus even when the subject is moving towards or away from the camera.

Red-Eye Correction
During playback Face Detection Technology allows you to quickly and accurately correct red-eye.

Sharp low light shooting
Shoot improved images in dim conditions with ISO 1600 - ideal in galleries or museums where flash photography is prohibited. Use Auto ISO Shift to avoid image blur with the touch of a button whenever camera shake is predicted.

Extra large vari-angle LCD
The 2.5" high-resolution vari-angle LCD lets you frame from challenging angles and share playback with friends. Night Display mode enhances screen visibility after dark.

Shooting modes and My Colors
A choice of 22 shooting modes includes Manual mode for creative control and 0cm Super Macro mode for extreme close-ups. Apply in-camera colour effects to images and movies with My Colors.

Accessories
A comprehensive range of accessories including lens hood and wide/tele/close-up converter lenses. A hotshoe on the PowerShot S5 IS enables the use of selected Canon Speedlite flashes.
