Catch The Action
Life doesn't give you second chances to capture special times. That's why the elegant PowerShot S5IS 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 S5IS also features an ISO 1600 Auto setting that reduces the effects of camera shake and sharpens subjects in low-light situations, giving you greater flexibility for shooting.
Canon Technology Maximizes Quality and Performance
With DIGIC III, you get images of superior quality, the camera functions at top efficiency and battery life is significantly enhanced. What's more, DIGIC III enables Canon's newly-improved Face Detection Technology and red-eye correction to give you better, more true-to-life people shots. Simply press the shutter button halfway down and the PowerShot S5IS automatically pinpoints the faces in the scene and chooses the ideal focus point. To keep every face looking bright and natural, without scary red eyes, the camera controls exposure settings and flash, so every shot is what you were shooting for. DIGIC III features Face Detection AF/AE, which finds multiple faces in the same frame and sets the most suitable focus point when the shutter button is pressed halfway. And an additional new feature, Face Detection FE adjusts the flash based on a person's face on the screen. Exposure and flash are controlled to ensure proper illumination of both the faces and the overall scene, eliminating the common problem of darkened or overexposed faces. Red-eye correction detects and automatically corrects red-eye during playback for both regular and flash photography. In unusual cases where red-eye is not automatically detected, it can easily be corrected manually during playback mode.
High-Resolution 2.5-Inch Vari-Angle LCD
The PowerShot S5IS's 2.5-inch LCD screen gives you the big picture, whether you're shooting, reviewing or showing off your images. This high-resolution screen offers a crisp, clear picture to make shooting, playback and using the camera's menu functions especially convenient. Clear and bright, it also features Night Display for easy viewing in low light.
The Creative Freedom You've Wanted
Advanced users and anyone looking to expand their photographic repertoire will be excited to find that Canon has integrated the PowerShot S5IS with a hot shoe adapter. The adapter lets you quickly and easily add one of several high-quality Canon Speedlite EX series external flashes, including the 220EX, 430EX, 580EX and 580EX II. Adding an external flash allows for advanced creative effects and greatly enhances your ability to achieve professional-quality results in many more situations. Flash intensity and other settings are easily accessed and controlled from the camera's LCD screen.
A Variety of Movie-Making Options
With a highly flexible movie mode, you can create the movie that's perfect for any application. Select from VGA (640 x 480 pixels) with frame rates of 30 fps and 30 fps LP, also QVGA (320 x 240 pixels) with frame rates of 60 fps and 30 fps for recording up to 1 hour or 4GB. With the S5IS, seamless movie shooting is easy -- just by pressing the movie button without switching to shooting mode.
