Review

I finally did it. I moved from 35mm SLR to digital SLR. I have to say that this camera is pretty amazing! If you have any how to use a regular SLR camera then this transition will be a breeze.

The biggest and most notable feature is the LCD screen. Once you take a picture you can easily press the play button and view the results. This really helps the learning curve of photography. And will in the long run save you money on film and development. Once the picture has been taken you can plug the camera into your computer and upload the pictures to it. The quality and size of the photo's are amazing!!

The lenses are interchangable within canon cameras. Just make sure its EFs lenses.

The battery life for this camera is really astonishing. I assumed it would last maybe a few hours at the most. but i have had the camera for 2 months and with medium to light use daily i have only charged the battery once.

Canon really out did themeslves this time 5 out of 5 stars!

I've used one, I do have to say it's a very well built camera. Feels very sturdy and solid in your hands

stinkfing3r · 22-05-2005, 11:10 PM

ignore the text. just dont want it stolen.

this took a few hours to get this shot. write filters and had to wait for fog to lift and sun to shine thru.

you need neutral denisty filters, tripod, shutter release button, decent lense, the right settings and a TON of patience. ill post another in a few

ninja fetus · 23-05-2005, 01:05 AM

for the price, my kodak 4.0mp is just fine for me

but that looks very good, nice photo and scenery is good

stinkfing3r · 23-05-2005, 01:14 AM

yup, its not really that much about the camera. sure it helps and its mainly filter and tripod doing the work. you need an eye for things and being in the right place at the right time helps.
