    The Good: Very low noise at higher ISOs; wide dynamic range; solid, well-designed body.

    The Bad: Slightly sluggish AF system; low effective resolution for a pro-level camera; bloated file sizes.

    The Bottom Line: While a wide dynamic range lets it serve up tons of highlight detail and impressive overall image quality, the S5 Pro isn't for high-speed sports photography, and it could use more resolution.
