PowerShot S5 IS Lens Availability

Hi , where can I find new lenses for my PowerShot S5 IS camera ?

[deebatman316]

The Powershot S5 IS NOT an interchangeable lens camera it has a fixed non-removable lens. If you want an Interchangeable lens camera look into the EOS R Series. The EOS M series has been discontinued. Along with EOS Digital SLR cameras. What is currently selling of DSLRs is existing stock. No more updates will be coming to that lineup it has been discontinued. No more EF lenses either everything has moved to the RF Mount.

Right. What led you to believe you could change lenses on this camera? No Powershots offer this.

But.......if you look on page 167 of the User Manual (Advanced), you will see that Canon offered Wide and Tele converters  and a Close-up lens. These fit on the front of your lens with an adapter.

Your best chance of finding these for your 17-year-old camera is on eBay.

And when you find one of any of them, you will find they are poor at best. Probably why they never were really a success. My advice don't waste your money, Insead save it up for a more current better camera.
