Product Description
The biggest breakthrough for the slim and trim ELPH line is the increased resolution of the PowerShot S500 Digital ELPH camera. Utilizing the same CCD sensor as is found on the top-rated PowerShot S50 and G5 model digital cameras, this five megapixel model captures JPEG images in SuperFine, Fine and Normal resolution modes and is also the first model in its class to offer 640 x 480 movie recording at ten frames per second for up to 30 seconds per clip. With the PowerShot S500 Digital ELPH, users also have the option of capturing 320 x 240 and 160 x 120 movies with sound at 15 frames per second for up to three minutes per clip. The PowerShot S500 Digital ELPH features an ultra-compact and fast (f/2.8-4.9) 3x (36-108mm equivalent) optical zoom lens. The lens - with its seven-element design - also offers a wide Autofocus range from as close as two inches (in macro mode) to infinity. Canon has also extended the power and range of this camera's digital zoom to 4.1x (from a previous high on Digital ELPH Cameras of 3.6x). For taking pictures on the fly, the S500 Digital ELPH camera offers a continuous burst mode that captures up to 2.2 frames per second at full resolution. The PowerShot S500 Digital ELPH model also has a shutter speed that extends to a fast 1/2000 of a second and features a built in flash with a range of up to 11 feet and automatic, red-eye reduction and slow synch settings. The camera's sharp, clear and easy to read 1.5-inch LCD monitor even allows users to check the smallest of details thanks to a 10x playback zoom.
Amazon.com Product Description
Printing 12 pages per minute at an astonishing 2,400 x 1,200 resolution, the Canon S500 is an economical and powerful printing solution for your home or office. The S500 can produce exceptional photo-quality prints that, when printed on Canon Professional photo paper PR-101, can maintain their color for up to 25 years without fading. Colors are brilliant and images are sharp, thanks to Canon's Microfine Droplet technology.

Economically minded users will appreciate that the S500's ink cartridges are individually replaceable, so when you run out of one color you can just replace the cartridge for that color, instead replacing an entire three-color cartridge. The printer features both USB and parallel ports and drivers for PC and MAC (Windows 95/98/ME/2000/NT 4.0 and Apple Macintosh OS 8.1 or higher).

5 out of 5 stars Great ink. Non-chipped tanks.......2006-12-21

I love canon. They don't install chips on the ink carts that flasely report when the tank is empty. So with canon you get to use ALL the ink you paid for.

        1 out of 5 stars Was good, but now dead.......2004-12-10

        This printer died in less than 2 years - the printhead doesn't work anymore and replacements are about $70, about the cost of a new printer. This is the weakness with Canon's method of reusing the printhead and just replacing the ink. If you want a long-lasting printer, get an HP where you replace the printhead along with the ink.

        5 out of 5 stars Great printer.......2003-11-12

        This is a great printer, which is probably why Canon stopped making it. There are no special print cartridges needed to print photos. I used photo paper and the regular cartridges and made great photos. This was the mistake of Canon, they made an inexpensive printer that would print photos cheaply and realized they were going to lose a bunch of money not selling photo cartridges. Hopefully they will make another printer like this. The printing is very fast, almost as fast as my laser, quiet, and of exceptional quality. If you can find it buy it, you won't regret it.

        5 out of 5 stars The Canon S500, great printer.......2003-01-08

        S500 is a great printer, even greater than the 30 dollar rebate I received from Canon/
        Its very quick, even at its highest resolution, makes beautiful digital photos , magnificent with Glossy Photo Paper, and really excellent on a good grade of plain paper.
        The setup and instructions, wonderful, I was up and going very fast, the indiviual ink tanks, makes things alot more affordable and the tanks as they are, last quite a while.
        Its quiet, looks great and does its job very well, you could spend more money, but, I dont thing you could do any better.
        My only negative on this machine, when the paper gets low, it gets balky feeding paper, easily remedied by putting in more paper and increasing the weight on the feed, that fixes it just fine, not a big deal, may Canon Should have mentioned it or maybe its some quirk in just mine, no matter, it still is terrifac, you can also adjust the paper thickness too.
        Its tough to beat the printer, in price, quality or performance.

        5 out of 5 stars Great for CD Labeling.......2002-05-14

        If you are going to use the Canon S500 for a variety of color tasks, this is for you. I use it primarily for making my own CD labels, jewel case booklet and tray inserts. The color and the detail are excellent and my labels are almost as good as the original commercial labels. Of course, I am making only single copies for my own use but it's fun making them attractive. Printer is highly recommended.

        5 out of 5 stars If you can find this printer, BUY IT NOW!.......2002-04-03

        After recently purchasing this printer (Canon s500), based on the many good reviews it has received (including PC Magazine's Editor's Choice), I have got to agree this is a great printer for the price. The print quality is excellent, even on regular paper the color photos look very clean and sharp. This printer uses 4 different cartridges (black, cyan, magenta, and yellow) in the printhead, allowing you to only replace the color needed, rather than having to throw out a color cartridge that still has two of the three colors remaining. This will save lots of $ over the life of your printer. Also the replacement cartridges are quite a bit cheaper than the ones I have bought for my previous printer. Overall, I am very happy with the choice I made. Great printer!
