Product Information

Make your forays into photography a pleasure with the help of the Canon PowerShot S3 IS 6.0 megapixel Digital Camera. The PowerShot S3 is known as an ultra-zoom device. Zooming in close to images can make it hard to produce shake-free shots, but Canon's got this covered. The S3 includes an image stabilization system to mitigate this issue.

This product measures 2.97 inches in depth by 3.07 inches in height by 4.46 inches in width, and it weighs 14.5 ounces.The Canon PowerShot S3 backs up this capability with some serious macro image photographic chops.

This makes it possible to create self-portraits, shoot over crowds, snap hip-level shots, and produce macro views. For extra convenience, it also allows you to mount it on a tripod.

While very dated now, this camera still holds it's own in the field. The S5 iS is the successor to this camera. I acquired another after having sold my first a long time ago, simply because it's far more convenient to carry in situations when my larger DSLR and lenses aren't appropriate. Image quality is excellent, the optical(as opposed to digital) zoom is a long-reach type, it allows a user to explore and use many features of a 'true' SLR such as fully-manual control of exposure settings, it's very compact, tripod-mountable, and uses standard AA batteries. Its capabilities can even be extended with a wonderful add-on known as CHDK(Google it), which opens up a plethora of useful, additional functions. SD memory cards are abundant and cheap, meaning you won't have any huge costs in ... While very dated now, this camera still holds it's own in the field. The S5 iS is the successor to this camera.

Uses Canon optics, which are firmly among the best in the industry. AA-batteries available nearly everywhere.

Affordable Excellence
I bought this camera to replace an S3 IS that I had that quit working about a year ago. I keep this in my artillery for any macro work that needs to be done because few cameras I have found can surpass the S3 IS ability for this function. And although the viewing screen is small, it is so flexible and maneuverable that it makes using the camera easy. It's a very good option for a first digital camera for noobs that just want to learn. If you have a child that wants to get in to digital photography, this camera is an ideal and affordable place to start, for ease of use and for the smaller size for smaller hands. But as I said, I value it for its incredible macro capabilities.I bought this camera to replace an S3 IS that I had that quit working about a year ago.

Great camera, excellent value
I have owned one of these excellent cameras for years. Much to my dismay, for some unknown reason, my trusty Canon S3 jammed and was inoperable. My first thought was to try to repair it, but when I checked on Ebay, I found that replacements were available for short money. I know that technology has come a long way since this model was introduced, but replacing a great, familiar camera, that totally suits my needs for twenty bucks and change was a no brainer. In addition, I could still use my filters, hoods, and other accessories.I have owned one of these excellent cameras for years.
