have slight buyers remorse now haha...damn that tricky trigger mouse button. I had a slew of nikon lens and I had heard nothing but good things with about this camera...not a bad first DSLR purchase

I've had one for several years and have to say nothing beats the colour with that baby.

Enjoy!

Apperently that camera is every bit as good (and better!) as an S3, which I shot for two years.

Congrats! Enjoy!

I upgraded from the S3 and I keep the S5 as my everyday digital...beautiful color files.

It has the same sensor as the S3, and it's a great one for skin... I used the S3 for work a few years ago, and it's a great camera... Solid and light! Yet I use it: my only digital camera ever... Enjoy it!

Cheers,

Juan

I agree, the s5 is a great cmera - don't be remorseful. Of all the DX cameras available I'd have an s5 before anything else.

good to hear! mostly wanted it to help kick start my blog with some tutorials on film use and also have a decent camera for timelapsing

The S3/S5 sensor was one of the best crop sensors ever, it thrashed the pants off the Nikon 10mp sensor in the D200. I had an S3 and if it was not for the blinding price I got a Canon 5d for would still be using it. I only used 2 lenses on her though a Sigma 18-55 2.8 and a Tokina 24-200 for the very rare time I wanted longer, I loved the results with the former. Great call if you have some nice Nikon glass, I wish they made a full frame version of her.

I've never used one but I love the images that series of camera produces. Happy shooting!

Congratulations, you'll love it! I bought mine a couple years ago and it has been great; excellent OOC jpeg files, minimal post-processing needed, very well built and reliable. I bought a 17-55/2.8 along with it and though I've tried to replace that lens with primes but it is in general better optically and also lighter than the three primes I bought. I know you have Nikon lenses already but this mid-range zoom is worth looking at. Enjoy your S5! 🙂
