thinking of getting an S5 IS

Low Orbit -
Could you do a crop of the seal's head from the original jpg. Just frame the outline of it's head nothing else. Please post it here, so everyone can see how the details hold up with the S5IS that you were using.
Also, please check out my "Feathers and fur" posting in which I sorta did the same thing:

Ah, must try that one night - I always thought the reflected light from the moon was lower than a sunny day. Cheers.

Anything you photograph on Earth in daylight is being lit by the same Sun the Moon is. And you actually only see it because of the sunlight it reflects, same as the Moon.

Sure

The compression killed it a little, but viewed at normal screen distance it looks fine to me. This is a 100% crop SOTC. No pp at all was done on it.

Yeah I saw your feathers and fur one. I think once you get a handle on the S5, you'll start to shine. IS or no IS the bulk of my my stationary shots are manual focus and tripod mounted.

By the way that duck looked fine if that helps.

Cheers.

Yep, that it is. And that it does.
