Sony scores a winner with the A350 Digital SLR camera, but lens should be better.

Introduction

With prices starting to come down a little on the Sony A350, I decided to purchase a back-up body, this time with Sony's standard zoom kit lens. Most of this review is identical to my review of the Sony A350 body only, which is currently lost in the servers of the Epinions... Read full review »

Pros flip out view finder
Cons soft jpg in low light
Recommended it? Yes

The flip out live view finder on this versatile camera allows me to get the crazy angles that are my signature style. This is my favorite part of the camera, and is why I chose it over a comparable different brand.

The flexible ISO settings allow for great low-light shots! The ISO button is... Read full review »

30D vs. 20D? Are the differences worth another purchase?

bysuemccartin Jul 1, 2007
15 Helpfuls 16 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Canon Digic II sensor, 5 fps mode, iso 3200, improved white logic
Cons Pricey? Not a huge upgrade over a 20D
Recommended it? Yes

My first canon dslr was the original Rebel also known as the 300D, for its time and considering what that camera cost, it was competent but it can't hold a candle to a 20D and even less so to a 30D. I shoot a lot of karate for my school, the 300D Rebel only has 3 fps which just isn't enough for... Read full review »

Impressions on the CANON EOS 30D : finally mature, but still expensive

17 Helpfuls 18 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Many features and very low noise, APS-sized CMOS gives best result with reasonable priced...
Cons viewfinder a bit dark, 8 million pixels and APS-sized cmos is insufficient for...
Recommended it? Yes

Having used a 300D and a 10D, i hesitated a lot before getting hands on this camera.
I got it with a Canon f4.0-f5.6/17-85 EF-S IS zoom, found it in Sim Lim square in Singapore.
Improvements are not so important: the good things of the 20D are still there: very good image quality with its... Read full review »
