oOOoo.. I got the same camera just a few months ago... I love the print quality more than anything so far... I coveted the Rebel, but knew that I didn't want to have to work had to take a picture, period... the S5 IS has a very simple point and shoot mode, and I have found the viewfinder (even if not 'real') just as easy as many other cameras I've owned - and I'm a viewfinder kinda gal... more important than anything, my tech-ignorant husband was able to take a few pics of the kiddo (and then was all puffed up about it for hours).
I dunno if i will ever dive deep into the features that are more easily accessed post camera on Photoshop... but the zoom is just what I wanted
