The sturdily built Canon PowerShot S5 IS is what is commonly known as a 'bridge' camera � so called because it forms a bridge between a point-and-shoot compact and a digital SLR.
Review Verdict: All said and done, if you're looking for a portable backup to your DSLR the Nikon Coolpix P5100 may well be the answer to your prayers. A RAW mode and better handling of image noise at the higher ISO settings might just have made the P5100 perfect.
