admin — Sun, 25 Jul 2010 19:09:13 +0000

Canon describes this DSLR as ‘entry level’. If this is the entry where’s the exit? Boy is it well equipped! At last look, Canon’s Web site showed nine DSLR models in its range, ranging from entry level to pro: a camera for everyone. Without even a glance at the 260 page manual, I jumped in at the deep end and shot the ISO tests you see in this posting. Within five minutes I was sailing quite happily through settings to adjust ISO figures, aperture and shutter speed and auto focus. I Read More

Beside the lower price, there are several other significant differences between the 10D and D60, namely: Uses new DIGIC chip for faster processing and autofocus, plus better photo quality 7 Read More

Mr Hitler not happy about the Canon 7d

DPReview mention the 50D in their 7D review but say it’s not based at all around it. A new AF system has been included in this camera which has a dedicated processor. Dual DIGIC 4 processors are in the EOS 7D and it has a new shutter system that can capture at an impre Read More

Not quite a year after announcing the Powershot SX10 IS ultrazoom, Canon is back with a successor, the PowerShot SX20 IS. The new camera gets a higher 12.1 megapixel resolution on the same physical-sized sensor, a 720p HD video capability and an HDMI connection to facilitate playback of images on an HDTV. Folks familiar with the SX10 IS will note the new camera appears to be virtually identical to the old (the main external difference seems to be the enlargement of the digital cover on Read More

Shutter The shutter is a complicated mechanism that precisely controls the duration of time that light passing through the lens remains in contact with the digital image sensor. The camera’s shutter is activated by the shutter release button. Prior to the digital age, the shutter remained closed to prevent the film from being exposed. Depending on the type of digital image sensor, a mechanical shutter may not be necessary. Rather than a shutter revealing light to initiate a chemical reaction i Read More
