What is it: Professional-level dSLR
What we think: While it has some impressive features and good overall image quality, it's not for high-speed sports photography, and it could use more resolution

Reviewed on: 6 June 2007
Tags: raw, barcode, pixel, pixels
We like:
Very low noise at higher ISOs; wide dynamic range; solid, well-designed body
We don't like:
Slightly sluggish AF system; low effective resolution for a pro-level camera; bloated file sizes
CNET.co.uk judgement:
While a wide dynamic range lets it serve up tonnes of highlight detail and impressive overall image quality, the S5 Pro isn't for high-speed sports photography, and it could use more resolution
