Canon PowerShot S3 IS Review at CNET

Mark Goldstein | Digital Compact Cameras | May 4, 2006 | 0 Comments

Canon PowerShot S3 ISCNET have reviewed the Canon PowerShot S3 IS, a 6 megapixel camera with an image stabilized 12x zoom lens, ISO 800 and a 2 inch LCD screen.

“Autofocus occurs quickly for the most part, although a few of my shots looked as if the focus hadn’t locked before capture. I didn’t experience any of the problems that the S2’s reviewer did with SuperMacro mode; it worked fine for me, even with the lens almost pressed against the subject. The image stabilization bought me about two stops of shutter latitude, but my hands shake like an octogenarian’s—a coffee-drinking octogenarian.”
