Imaging Resource have reviewed the Canon PowerShot S80, an 8 megapixel update of the S70 which offers a 28-100mm f/2.8-5.3 lens, 2.5 inch LCD screen and Canon’s advanced image processor, DIGIC II.

“Canon’s PowerShot S80, the flagship of its top-of-the-line S-Series PowerShots, updates last year’s S70 model with more features in a smaller package. Compact design and superior handling, the hallmarks of the S-Series, are just Canon’s way of saying “no compromise.” The S80 does that with a larger sensor, a speedy DIGIC II processor, a generous 2.5-inch LCD, 21 shooting modes and a very slick EOS-style Multi Control dial in a body Canon claims is eight percent smaller than its predecessor. And it brings a little more to the party with a 30 fps VGA or XGA Movie mode, too. Overall, one of the more appealing subcompact digicams we’ve seen.”
