About this product
Product Information
Stylish, pocket size fully featured digital camera. With 13 flexible shooting modes and new Canon technologies, this is the ideal camera for taking photos in all situations. The PowerShot S50 is a versatile digital camera featuring a high quality 5.0-megapixel CCD and 3x optical zoom lens. Although stylish and compact, the features of this camera are aimed at advanced amateur users with 13 shooting modes and full manual controls for exposure and focusing.The PowerShot S50 incorporates a high resolution CCD sensor with 5.0 effective megapixels (approximately 5.3 megapixels in total). This sensor allows the camera to capture still images as large as 2592x 1944 pixels and movies as large as 320 x 240 pixels. The PowerShot S50 features a highly compact and sharp 3x optical zoom lens with a focal length of 35-105mm (35mm equivalent). The lens features a maximum aperture of f2.8 (wide angle) to f4.9 (telephoto). RAW mode allows you to obtain original image data, recording the image direct from the CCD without any image processing. The PowerShot S50 has 13 shooting modes, which can be selected from a mode dial on the top of the camera, including full manual controls, and a 'Custom' mode enabling you to set and save the camera parameters. The PowerShot S50 incorporates the DIGIC processor for even better color reproduction.The PowerShot S50 supports PTP, a standard protocol. This allows driver-less image communications with computers when combined with recent operating systems (Windows XP or Mac OS). A computer using this system will automatically select the correct drivers for the camera without needing to install them. On older operating systems a driver is still required to be installed. The PowerShot S50 is equipped with Direct Print which allows easy high-quality printing by simply connecting the camera via a cable to a CP-100 Card Photo printer or to the range of bubble jet direct printers. When the PowerShot S50 is connected to the CP-100, bordered or borderless prints can be selected and a trimming function allows a portion of a picture to be expanded and printed. Simple and quick direct printing is possible with the dedicated Card Photo Printers, producing images of 300 x 300 dpi on a credit card size or 4 x 6" print. The PowerShot S50 is compatible with Bubble Jet Direct Printers connecting direct via a cable and controlled by the camera through the direct print screen. Images can be printed onto A4 size paper to 6" x 4" sized paper.Product Identifiers

Yet another great compact from canon
Who needs 20 megapixels? My favotite film cameras are my Nicca, Leotax, and Fed 2 Leica copies. I'd have a Leica III series if I could afford it. I also like the Olympus stylus epic. Well here is is a modern digital camera to live up to that tradition. Recargeable battery with good capacity, the 5 megapixel sensor takes shots that look good on a 15" monitor, it has a substantial feel, nice to hold and fits in a pocket. The up-down, right-left control takes a little getting used to. I like the black color. Metal core and poycarbonate? Front and back panels. Compact flash memory, works well with 512 megabyte card.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Great product for the price.
Great product for the price. It was the top of the line when it originally came out. I loved that it could do video as well. Mine broke a few years ago and my daughter loved it so I was looking for a place to get mine repaired when I saw this ebay listing. I just bought this one instead and hope to get my other one repaired as well.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Nice to carry around on the go
