Imaging Resource Reviews Canon PowerShot S1 IS
Imaging Resource have just reviewed the Canon Powershot S1 IS digital camera, which offers 10x image stablised zoom, 3 megapixels and high-quality 640 x 480 video at 30 frames/second with sound.
“I’ll say right up front that I liked the PowerShot S1 IS quite a bit. I’ve always been a fan of long-zoom digicams, and the S1 IS’s unusually effective image-stabilization makes it long, 10x zoom much more usable than it would be otherwise. I don’t have any way to quantify how good a job an image stabilizer does, but would estimate that the one on the S1 IS should let you shoot a good 3 f-stops slower than you’d be able to otherwise, and still get sharp pictures.”
