  Canon's PowerShot S5 IS remains one of the best super-zoom digital cameras on the market. It sports a decent 12x range with optical stabilisation, a useful flip-out and twist screen, a decent degree of manual control and impressively, a flash hotshoe. Som...

• Pros: Fast in operation; menus simple to navigate; great video controls and stereo sound; sharp colourful images even at maximum telephoto; sturdy build with comfortably rounded hand grip; zoom range which is also accessible in video mode
• Cons: Non-rechargeable AA batteries supplied; no raw capture; plastic feel body; image noise immediately visible upwards of ISO 400
