DPReview has come out with their dpreview出来与他们的 in-depth review在深入审查 on Canon’s new对佳能的新 Powershot S3 IS三是的PowerShot camera.相机。 Successor to the Canon Powershot S2 IS, the new gunmetal black S3 IS is surprisingly just a mere minor upgrade.继任者佳能的PowerShot S2的是，新的青铜黑色三是出乎意料的是仅仅只是一个次要升级。

Some of the new features include:一些新的功能包括：

• ISO 80 - 800 (S2 IS: 50 - 400)国际标准化组织80 -8 00（ S 2的是： 5 0- 40 0）
• 6-megapixels (S2 IS: 5-megapixels) 6百万像素（ S2的是： 5百万像素）
• 2.0-inch LCD display (S2 IS: 1.8-inch) 2.0英寸液晶显示器（ S2的是： 1.8英寸）
• New Sports mode新的体育模式
• Live histogram while framing生活直方图的同时，制定
• Widescreen shooting mode宽屏拍摄模式

Why the new features are no big deal:为什么新特点是没有什么大不了：

• ISO 800 is too noisy to be practically useful.国际标准化组织800太嘈杂，以切实有用的。
• 1-megapixel difference is nothing to call home about. 100万像素的分别是无关的家里打电话。
• LCD got larger but pixel count remains the same.液晶显示器得到较大，但像素依然不变。
• Although the Sports mode can be handy, most people using this prosumer camera would probably use the P/A/S/M modes most of the time.虽然体育模式，可以方便，大多数人都使用此prosumer相机可能会使用的P / 1 /秒/米模式，大部分的时间。
• Histogram is not accurate in every occasion.直方图是不准确的在每一个场合。 Individual RGB channels can get blown out while the histogram looks alright.个别的RGB渠道，可以吹出来，而直方图看起来好吧。
• Widescreen shooting works only for still and not the video mode宽屏拍摄工程，不仅对仍然不是视频模式

Therefore I would say the only real reason for any current S2 IS owners to upgrade, is for the cool gunmetal black.因此，我会说，唯一真正的原因，任何当前的S2的是业主要进行升级，是冷静的青铜黑。

Nonetheless, if you are seeking for a new camera that gives you lots of controls but without the bulk of a SLR, the S3 IS is a great choice.然而，如果您正在寻求一个新的摄像头，让您大量的管制，但没有批量一个单镜反光相机，三是是一种伟大的选择。 Indeed, it is one of the hottest camera right now if you’ve been following photography forums.事实上，这是一对最热的相机的权利，现在如果您一直在以下摄影论坛。

I used to own a S2 IS, and other than the typical limitations of non-SLR cameras, my only complaint is the lack of a hotshoe for an external flash.我曾经拥有一个S2的是，和其他较典型的局限性，非单镜反光相机，我唯一的投诉是缺乏一个hotshoe为一的外部闪光。 And unfortunately, a hotshoe is still being left out of S3 IS.和不幸的是， hotshoe现仍被排除在外三是。 It seems obvious that Canon has left it out of their S-line of cameras on purpose.似乎很明显，佳能已经离开是出于他们的S -线相机的目的。
