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 »

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.

Improvements are not so important: the good things of the 20D are still there: very good image quality with its... Read full review »

Sony Cyber-Shot DSC-H2 Digital Camera - Still Large and Slow Mega-Zoom

bydkozin Jun 9, 2006

Pros Uses 2 AA batteries (included with charger), good image quality, 12x stabilized zoom,...
Cons Slow low light focusing, flash recycle, slow burst and bracketing, batteries charge slow,...
Recommended it? Yes

After using the 5- Megapixel Sony Cyber-Shot DSC-H1 and selling it due to several shortcomings, I was eager to see if the new 6-Megapixel Sony DSC-H2 is much better. The H2 competes with optically-stabilized mega-zoom cameras from Panasonic and Canon (as well as other Sony models) and has the same... Read full review »
