Image
Canon EOS 550D Digital SLR Camera (Body Only) (18.0 MP CMOS (APS-C) Sensor, Full HD 1080p Video, Advanced Live View, 3" 1.04 Million Dot Clear View LCD, 3.7 fps) The EOS 550D is an advanced mid-range camera, just one step down from the EOS 50D (although ironically slightly more expensive). It is aimed at experienced amateur photographers, and has a features set to match. It has a wide range of shutter speeds, from 30 seconds to 1/4000th, a nine-point AF system with a cross-type f/5.6 central point, and the sophisticated 63-point metering system from the EOS 7D, more advanced than the 35-zone meter of the 500D. Pros Tweaked Auto ISO function High resolution LCD screen Quick control function Larger buttons Increased exposure compensation range Battery life Movie mode Cons Small buffer for RAW images Although improved, AF during LiveView could still be better Canon EOS 550D: Specification Resolution 18Mp Sensor size 22.3 x 14.9mm ...

Canon EOS 7D Review

Image
Canon EOS 7D Digital SLR Camera Body (18 MP, 3" LCD, Advanced Movie Mode, 8 fps, ISO 12800) The Canon 7D is designed for speed, with dual DIGIC 4 chips to speed processing of these large 14-bit files, as well as keep up with the shutter's 8-frame-per-second top speed. Even the sensor had to be tweaked to enable such speed, with an 8-channel readout to more quickly draw the image off the sensor. The Canon 7D's buffer can handle 94 JPEGs at top speed, or 15 RAW images. For its part, the Canon 7D's shutter mechanism is rated at 150,000 cycles, and is the same design used by the 1D-series of Canon digital SLRs. EV compensation has been expanded to five stops in either direction, and the ISO ranges from 100 to 6,400, with an expanded setting up to 12,800. The Canon 7D also sports an HD movie mode that will capture full HD at 30p. The built-in flash has a wider range to handle up to 15mm wide-angle lenses, like the new EF-S 15-85mm f/3.5-5.6 IS USM, and the flash can al...

Image
Canon EOS 50D Digital SLR Camera (15.1MP, 3" LCD, ISO 12800) (Canon Malaysia) With the same rugged, conservative body as the 40D, the Canon EOS 50D's only distinguishing mark is the silver bezel on its mode dial, and there are a few minor changes to how the buttons and controllers are used, but for the most part the 50D's body is unchanged.

Nikon D90 (12.3-megapixel)

Image
Nikon D90 SLR Digital Camera (12.3MP, DX Format, 3" LCD, Live View, Video, 4.5fps) (Body Only) Nikon D90 comes with 12.3-megapixel image quality, broad control and the world’s first digital SLR movie function combine to deliver unsurpassed creative freedom in a D-SLR. The new D90 incorporates an optional feature called Universal Vibration Reduction (uVR). This turns all lenses into uVR lenses, and offers a 10-stop advantage. This means a person using a 500mm lens, who would normally have to shoot at 1/500th of a second, can shoot at 2 seconds when uVR is enabled. The new uVR system isn't sensor based, and instead requires one of the three optional vertical battery grips (see below). In this case, the MB-D90a is required. This grip provides all the normal controls and extended battery life of a regular grip. It also holds 8 EN-EL4a batteries, along with a step-up transformer. With uVR enabled, the combined power of the batteries sends a...
