Compact, lightweight and with environmental protection, the successor to the EOS 5D boasts a newly designed Canon CMOS sensor, with ISO sensitivity up to 25,600 for shooting in low light conditions. The new DiG!C 4 processor combines with the improved CMOS sensor to deliver medium format territory image quality at 3.9 frames per second, for [...]
Just before the Photokina 2008 show, Canon launched the hotly anticipated follow-up to the Canon EOS 40D - the EOS 50D! It looks quite similar to the camera it replaces, but a 15 mpx sensor, a bigger monitor (with Live View, of course), ISO sensitivity up to 12800 (wow!) and a beefy DIGIC 4 image [...]
With a price approaching digital Hasselblad territory, the top of the Canon digital SLR is obliged to impress. From the 21.1 megapixel, full-frame CMOS Sensor to the brilliant 3″ display with Live View, and very fast autofocus system to the tough, weather-resistant build, professional shooters will find this camera exceeds every expectation and proves a [...]
Half the pixel count and half the price of the top of the line model, the EOS-1D Mark III is otherwise easily confused with its big brother: hefty body, an overly complicated name, and a long list of cutting-edge features: good image quality at high ISO settings, 14-bit analog-to-digital conversion for smooth tonal variation, and [...]
Canon’ high-end prosumer model was released in 2005, making it one of the older digital SLRs available today. But this camera pioneered full-frame and all its advantages for getting the most from your lenses, particularly the wide-angle glass.
With over 12 megapixels of resolution, the 5D easily keeps pace with the latest competitors. The [...]
Announced in June 2008, the 10 megapixels XS indeed demonstrates excess for a budget digital SLR, including the Digic III processor found on the more expensive XSi/450D, 7-spot auto-focus, and a 2.5″ screen with Live View. Its interface is consistent with current top-of-the-line Canons.
This value-priced EOS model lacks spot metering, the higher resolution of the [...]
The Canon EOS 350D, released in 2005, is more a ground-up redesign than an upgrade to its groundbreaking predecessor, the EOS 300D. New features include white balance correction options and a monochrome mode. The metal EF-S mount was retained, so any EF as well as the specialized EF-S lenses can be used.
For a camera first [...]
Simply put, the EOS 30D reset the expectations of SLR buyers in 2006. It incorporates features with Canon’s acclaimed 8.2 megapixel CMOS sensor and DIGIC II Image Processor. Enhancements include a 2.5 inch LCD monitor, true spot metering, a durable shutter mechanism, a sturdy magnesium-clad body, and Picture Style, which aims to produce polished output [...]
The 40D, great-grandson of the first consumer digital SLR, benefits from a technical evolution that has resulted in one of the finest digital SLR cameras you can buy - especially at this price-point. Sporting a 3″ screen with Live View, a snappy 6.5 frames-per-second continuous mode, and a rethought menu system brings the 40D up [...]
The 450D sports a huge 3-inch LCD display, 12.2 megapixels, and a blisteringly fast DIGIC III image-processing chip. 14-bit analog-to-digital processing means smoother contrast gradations than ever, especially for RAW shots.
With this much goodness in such a tidy-looking package, why would you even bother with its bigger brethren? The 450D’s plastic enclosure is solid enough, [...]
