How Canon Rebel T3i stacks up against Nikon D3200

how to replace the EOS 600D/Rebel T3i

Consumers looking to step up from a point and shoot to a digital SLR camera will try without a doubt, choose between the best-selling Canon Rebel T3i ($ 749 with lens) and the new Nikon D3200 ($ 699 with lens). We have to play with the D3200 for a few weeks and wanted to record our impressions:
The D3200 hits the Rebel on specifications and video performance. The 24.2 megapixel Nikon versus 18 for the Rebel. In fact, for most people in either order, but if you do a lot of cutting, you'll appreciate the extra megapixels.

On video, the Nikon is another advantage: it will autofocus while recording, which the rebels and other Canon cameras do not. Otherwise the two large 3-inch LCD screen, dedicated video record buttons and menus do have that are dedicated to photography foolproof.

(See photo of Lemon test shot to Automatic. Look how sharp it is.)
The big decision on which brand to work with an SLR, the lenses have to go, usually comes down to your home inventory: If you already own Nikon lenses, you'll want the Nikon camera, and vice versa.
Both the D3200 and T3i cameras are great, but if you as a brand new SLR consumers are, the auto-focus video alone is enough for me to send to the Nikon.

Proposals that will be a new Canon camera to sit in his entry-level model lineup to announce growing from day to day.

Recently rumored specs for the Canon EOS 650D/Rebel t4i to replace the 15-month-old 600D include an 18-million-pixel sensor and a touch-screen LCD.

It is not known whether the sensor is a new design to be, or has one of the existing cameras from Canon, like the one in the 60D, found an enthusiast level camera.

A touch screen would be a very exciting development for its DSLR technology, so this is the only DSLR with such a function, if true. It could mean functions such as touch-shutter, or touch-focus point could be built, something that is very popular, to the growing number of compact system cameras on the market.
Other rumors include information 9 cross type AF and continuous AF in live view mode.
Release Date

Suggestions are that a release date for June, the camera could be on the cards, with many Canon expects its mirror less camera shortly after or even reveal the same time.

As mirror less model has the potential to eat into the entry-level DSLR sales, it will be interesting to see how Canon is different between the two in its marketing expenditure.

It is noteworthy that, however, are rumors of a new mirror-less model has been around for some time, comes at the end with nothing so far.

2012 canon EOS 5D Mark III review

Canon 5D Mark III review up on the smash success of the Canon 5D Mark  full frame professional camera designed to suit the needs of photographers and videographers across the industry. D800  36mp for $3000. 22mp for $3500. The AF, video, and other incremental upgrades are good enough. I upgraded from the mark ii to the mark iii and much difference in image quality.

The 5D Mark III is expected to ship for $3499 body-only, or with the 24-105mm f/4L lens (same as the 5D Mark II) for $4299.

The 5D was replaced by the Canon 5D Mark III review in the autumn of 2008, with the new model offering nearly double the resolution (21.1MP) a greatly increased ISO range and, for the first time on a full-frame DSLR, the ability to record Full HD video with an external microphone jack also offering stereo sound recording.

Fast forward nearly three and a half years, and we now have the successor to the 5D Mark II – the imaginatively named 5D Mark III. Effective resolution gets a boost too, albeit a fairly conservative one, up to a total of 22.3MP (compared to 21.1MP on the Mark II).

Another major upgrade the Mark III enjoys over its predecessor is its 14-bit DIGIC 5 image processor – the same engine that’s also used in the Canon 1D X. Employing an 8-channel readout and 14-bit A/D conversion, the Mark III is able to shoot at a maximum 6fps – up from 3.9fps on the Mark II.

In terms of high ISO performance, Canon claims that the Mark III offers a 2-stop advantage over the Mark II. In other words, ISO 1600 on the Mark III should produce the same image quality as ISO 400 on the Mark II. While the original 5D didn’t offer any video shooting capabilities the Mark II made history by becoming the first full-frame DSLR to offer 1080p Full HD video recording. Thanks to this (and also to the large number of premium-grade fast Canon lenses) the 5D Mark II has in recent years become the “go-to” model for serious DSLR video enthusiasts and professional-film production houses looking to shoot with a DSLR.

Storage isn’t a problem with the Mark III sporting dual SDHC/XC and UDMA compatible CF card slots.

Features

•    22.3MP full-frame CMOS sensor
•    Canon DIGIC 5+ image processor
•    ISO 100 - 25,600 (50 - 102,600 in exp. mode)
•    1080/30p Full HD movie recording
•    New 61-point AF system (41 X-type)

Canon Speedlite 270EX Flash Reviews

Canon Speedlite 270EX Flash

The Canon Speedlite 270EX Flash  is a new portable hotshoe flash unit, introduced in early 2009 with the EOS 500D/Rebel T1i/Kiss X3 digital EOS SLR camera. previously all Canon flash units were made in Japan or Korea

Flash head movements :

Unlike the Canon Speedlite 270EX Flash  has a tilting head, though it still lacks swivel. The camera knows the flash zoom position too since it’s actually displayed on the Speedlite control menu screen - at least on those camera bodies which can control recent Speedlites in this way. Effectively the 270EX represents a transition from physical switches on Speedlites to digital camera-based control. Second, support for these extra features is limited to EOS digital cameras from the EOS 40D onwards

Automatic menu control :

The EOS 450D, EOS 1000D, EOS 40D, EOS 50D, EOS 1D Mk III, EOS 1Ds Mk III, EOS 500D and EOS 5D Mk II all have this ability. The camera’s menu system lets you enable the following functions on the 270EX.

Autofocus assist :

Most smaller Speedlites with red AF lights have limited single AF point coverage. Flash units which can cover the autofocus points of cameras with multiple points generally have large lenses and plastic cover plates. You cannot enable AF assist on this unit if you’re using a camera which lacks external Speedlite control. The flash unit cannot work with older film-based cameras which lack E-TTL. Up until now all EX flash units have been fully compatible with all EOS cameras made since 1986. The 270EX requires a type A film camera that’s got E-TTL support, or any post D30 digital camera.

Power :

Like all tiny flash units, the 270EX can’t produce a lot of light. There are really two markets for tiny flash units. In short, the 270EX is a relatively affordable, lightweight flash unit for beginning users who own recent model digital EOS cameras. It isn’t great for teaching the basics of off-camera flash, but is ideal for portable on-camera use.

Bounce flash head :

A bounce head allows the Speedlite 270EX II’s flash output to be bounced off the ceiling for soft, shadowless lighting.

Easy to use off-camera flash :

The Speedlite 270EX II can be triggered remotely by a compatible camera or Speedlite flash and is as easy to use in off-camera mode as it is in the hotshoe, opening up countless creative lighting opportunities.

The Canon Speedlite 270EX Flash adds power and flexibility for enhanced flash photography anywhere. An indispensable complement to your Canon camera, Speedlite 270EX is a perfect extension of your photographic genius.

Canon EOS 60D Reviews

Canon EOS 60D

inherits from the EOS 7D is the 63-zone fill (Intelligent Focus, Color, Luminance) Metering System. As I said in the Canon EOS 7D Review been watching Canon's auto exposure systems improve over the years. Starting at ISO 100 and going through---Auto ISO is fully featured (Auto ISO settings used to be limited) and works in most modes including M mode. It works especially well in One Shot Canon DSLRs typically focus very quickly and accurately (lightning fast if you are used to point and shoot autofocus).

My subjective evaluation, based a large part on shooting thousands of frames at soccer and using the best available sports lenses (including the Canon EF 300mm f/2.8 L IS USM Lens and Canon EF 400mm---L IS USM Lens) is that the 60D delivers reasonable AI Servo  performance falls in line with its position in the Canon DSLR lineup - better than the Rebel models and not as good as the 7D.

A focus feature notably missing from the Canon EOS 60D is the AF Micro adjustment feature found in the EOS 50D.

Rebel (and point & shoot) owners especially will appreciate how large the 60D's pent prism  viewfinder has approximately 96% coverage, a slight increase over the 50D's 95% coverage. This image was shot  A great feature implemented in the 60D is the Single-Axis Electronic Viewfinder Level, Pressing the camera's shutter button halfway down clears the level indication.

accuracy is not always easy - and any time spent after the shutter button is pressed half way is time during which the camera may be going out of level. The 60D's built-in level is accurate and always available in Live View with a press of the Info button - in both vertical and horizontal camera orientations. The Canon EOS 60D's high quality LCD  and contains 1.04 million dots (a relatively small increase from the 50D  quality is great.

The 50D's joystick is gone - replaced by a new Multi-Control Dial. A Lock button works in conjunction with a menu option to enable the Multi-Control Dial to be locked - and functions as the print button (remember - the one that used to get a dedicated button?) in image review mode. The new Live View (Video Start/Stop) button is nicely located. A new Quick Control Button ("Q") opens an easy-to-use settings change  locations and functions. The LCD light button was and remains a single-function button as it should.

The 60D's top LCD (a nice feature that is missing on the Rebel models) is no longer a rectangle but is stylishly designed to better follow the contour of the camera.

The Canon EOS 60D has a total of 15 shooting modes available via the top dial that offer something for shooters of all skill levels. Video mode is new as is B (Bulb) mode.

As would be expected at this point in time, the Canon EOS 60D has received the renowned, game-changing EOS HD video capabilities. While it is not a perfect-for-everyone video package, the 60D, with its huge-to-video-camera-standards sensor, delivers very impressive video image quality.

What you get with the 60D's HD video is most similar to the 7D's feature set. In-camera video trimming is available and Canon's Movie Crop mode is featured. Plan on using manual focus or pre-focusing for video recording.
New to the axed line and similar to the EOS 7D, this pop-up flash includes an Integrated Speedier Transmitter for control of multiple off-camera EOS Speediness. No Canon 580EX II Flash or Canon ST-E2 Speedier Transmitter is needed to completely control as many remote flashes as desired. As shown in the images above, the Canon EOS 60D has received the same level of weather sealing as the EOS 50D. This amount is slightly less than the 7D's level of sealing.

The Canon EOS 60D breaks new DSLR ground by offering in-camera RAW image processing and creative digital filters.

Brightness, Picture Style, White Balance (WB), Color Space, High-ISO Noise Reduction, Peripheral Illumination Correction, linear distortion correction and chromatic aberration correction changes can be made to RAW images while still in the camera. JPG-captured images can also be resized (down) in-camera. Images can also now be rated in-camera.

The Canon EOS 60D offers 4 creative filters: Grainy B/W, Soft Focus, Toy Camera Effect (igniting and color shift) and Miniature Effect (reverse tilt-shift look). These filters can be applied to a RAW or JPG image in-camera. Because the quality of the lens makes a big difference in the image quality delivered by a DSLR, I recommend buying, now or later, one of the better Canon general purpose lenses available. At this review date, the Canon EF-S 17-55mm f/2.8 IS USM Lens and Canon EF-S 15-85mm f/3.5-5.6 IS USM Lens are my most-recommended APS-C/1.6x lenses with the Canon EF 24-105mm f/4 L IS USM Lens and the Canon EF 24-70mm f/2.8 L USM Lens being excellent alternatives.

Then add one of the Canon EF 70-200mm L Lenses to your kit.

The Canon EOS 60D used in this review was purchased retail. Owning a Canon product gives you access to Canon support. Canon did write one - it's called the owner's manual.

Perhaps the remaining question is - who should buy a Canon EOS 60D? The 7D's 8 fps frame rate is clearly faster than the 60D's 5.3 fps rate and the shutter has a 50% higher durability rating.

The least compelling upgrade will of course be from the Canon EOS 50D. Fortunately, the Canon EOS 60D's price tag is significantly lower than that of previous axed bodies - a feature we can all celebrate.

Instead it represents a new category of Canon DSLRs designed to precisely fill the gap between the consumer level EOS 550D / Rebel T2i and the semi-pro EOS 7D. Like other semi-pro cameras, the Canon EOS 60D offers two control wheels; a small one on the top of the handgrip, and a large, spinning dial on the back of the camera. This rear quick control dial is characteristic of all high-end Canon EOS cameras. The mode dial does feature a lock button which helps to prevent unintentional changes to your settings.

On the 50D, pressing the joystick opened the new Quick Control screen. On top of the Canon EOS 60D, positioned above the smaller and simplified status LCD display, are four buttons, each of which now has a single function rather than the dual-function buttons of the 50D. There are two LCD displays on the EOS 60D, the 3-inch color LCD on the rear and the smaller status panel on the top. More importantly the 60D is the first EOS DSLR to feature an articulated screen.

Note that the 50D's PC Sync port for connecting the camera to external lights has been removed, limiting the 60Ds use in studio environments. There are, of course, manual and semi-automatic modes for users who want more advanced exposure control. Additionally, the Creative Auto mode is targeted at beginners who have grown out of using the Full Auto mode, allowing you to change a few key settings using the LCD screen via a simple slider system for changing the aperture and exposure compensation, or Background and Exposure as the camera refers to them.

Reflecting its more consumer-friendly nature, the 60D offers a number of creative filters, as previously seen on Canon's range of compact cameras. In addition a new feature called Basic+ applies a creative ambience to images when shooting in the Basic modes. The EOS 60D offers a range of three Auto focus modes (One Shot, AI Focus and AI Servo), and there are six preset, auto, Kelvin and custom white balance options. There are four metering modes including a 4% Spot metering mode, useful in tricky lighting conditions as an alternative to the excellent and consistent Evaluative metering system.

The menu system is now the same in design as on the EOS 550D and 7D, which in turn borrowed the design from the professional range of EOS cameras. We tested the EOS 60D with the supplied EF-S 18-200mm f/3.5-5.6 IS lens, which offers a very versatile focal range and crucially includes image stabilization. This is important for Canon, as competitors like Sony, Olympus and Pentad all offer image stabilization in their DSLRs. If you're upgrading from an older or cheaper digital EOS model and already have a lens or lenses, you can buy the 60D body-only.
The EOS 60D features the same DIGIC 4 processor as its predecessor,

which produces noticeably faster image processing, start-up and image review times, and better noise reduction in high-ISO images than older EOS cameras (jump to the Image Quality page for ISO samples). Now there's a dedicated Live View button on the rear of the camera to the right of the viewfinder. Live View can also be controlled remotely using the supplied EOS utility software, which allows you to adjust settings and capture the image from a PC.

Live View attempts to satisfy both the consumer and more technical user, with three types of focusing system on offer. The first, Quick AF, works by physically flipping the camera mirror to engage the auto-focus sensor, which then momentarily blanks the LCD screen and causes a physical sound, before the image is displayed after about 1 second. The other methods, Live AF and Live AF with Face Detection, use an image contrast auto-focus system, much like that used by point-and shoot compacts, the main benefits being the complete lack of noise during operation, and no LCD blackout. Live View is also used for the feature that will arguably generate the most interest in the Canon EOS 60D.

 its movie mode. If you turn the mode dial to the position denoted by the movie camera icon, the camera will enter Live View automatically. The EOS 60D will not automatically adjust focus during filming, but you can initiate auto focus at any time while recording a clip. The 60D contains a database of correction data for many Canon lenses and, if Peripheral Illumination Correction is enabled, automatically applies it to JPEG images. For RAW images the correction is applied later in the Digital Photo Professional software.

Once you have captured a photo, the Canon EOS 60D has an average range of options for playing, reviewing and managing your images. You can also delete an image, rotate an image, view a slideshow, protect images so that they cannot be deleted, and set various printing options. For RAW shooters, the EOS 60D features in-camera RAW image processing.

Sure enough, the Canon 60D boasts a host of new goodies including an 18MP sensor, 1080p HD movie capture with a choice of frame rates and Canon's new fill metering system. You get the same 9-point autofocus system and DIGIC 4 image processor, making it look a bit of a poor relation compared with the Canon 7D, which has a more generous 19-point AF system and dual DIGIC 4 processors.

Canon Powers hot ELPH 500 

the Canon IXUS 310 HS, Powers hot ELPH 500 HS as it's known in North America is Canon's latest touch-screen compact. The ELPH 500 HS has a 4.4x stabilized optical zoom with wide f2.0 maximum aperture and an ultra-wide angle 24mm maximum field of view well as the automatic shooting modes you'd expect, it also sports Program Aperture and Shutter-priority exposure modes---and can shoot Full HD video at 1080p.
With its combination of touch-screen operation, high quality video--semi exposure modes and good low-light performance, ELPH 500 HS will undoubtedly appeal to enthusiast photographers and videographers compared it against the Sony Cyber-shot TX10 and Panasonic Lummox FX77 / FX78, two similarly priced touch-screen models that share some of the  ELPH 500 HS's core but also have something different to offer.

ELPH 500 HS shares the same 'choc-ice' styling of earlier wide-screen ELPH models--and our brown review sample made the analogy even more fitting. The IXUS 310 HS / ELPH 500 HS continues the trend for Canon touch-screen compacts to eschew physical controls. The absence of a video 'mode' (you press a record screen icon to start shooting video in any stills mode) means you have to frame up your shot inthe camera then switchingwhen recording starts. The touch-screen doesn't feel as responsive as some of the earlier touch-screen IXUS models I've reviewed though.

Less impressive is teethe ELPH 500 HS's battery life - around 180 shots from the fully charged NB-6L Lithium Ion battery.

The ELPH 500 HS lens has a range of 24 - 105mm (equivalent) and a maximum aperture at the 24mm setting of f2.0. Canon ELPH 500 HS shooting modes.

In Auto mode the ELPH 500 HS uses scene detection to enhance automatic exposure and Face Aria, both of which are extremely effective. Canon  ELPH 500 HS movie modes.

Additionally there are two dedicated movie modes - frame movie and Super Slow Motion movie. Super Slow Motion movie has two speed options - 240fps mode records at the 320 x 240 resolution while 120fps mode records at 640 x 480 with playback speeds at 30fps of 1/4 and 1/8 real time respectively.

If the idea of an almost-all-touch screen camera appeals to you, the Canon Powers hot Alpha 500 HS ($300) is one of the best point-and-shoot options in that class. But it's becoming clear that touch screen-operated cameras are a significantly different beast than traditional cameras with similar specs. The touch interface is well-implemented—the Auto mode and scene presets operate smoothly.


Shooting modes and features
You get plenty of shooting modes in the Powers hot Alpha 500 HS, which combines tried-and-true Canon in-camera options with a few brand-new selections.
The camera also records 1080p high-definition video at 24 frames per second; you're can use the Color Accent and Miniature Effect modes when shooting video, too.

Performance, image quality, and video quality
The Alpha 500HS generated an overall imaging score of Very Good, with an aggregate image-quality score higher than that of the esteemed Canon Powers hot S95.

Overall video quality was rated as Good, but the Canon Powers hot Alpha 500 HS's video mode doesn't do the best job in low-light situations.
Touch screen interface.

One slight hassle is the five  of icons to scroll through in the on-screen menus—needed to accommodate the camera's 26 distinct shooting modes. You also don't always have access to the camera's Menu button, depending on the shooting mode you are in. In some cases, the focus point also floats away a bit from the intended subject, and the touch-focus controls aren't available in the camera's movie mode. In addition to your standard touch screen-controlled menu navigation.

the Powers hot Alpha 500 HS also boasts a few gesture controls for navigating image and video playback. The Canon Powers hot Alpha 500 HS is essentially a touch screen-operated version of another very good Canon camera, the Powers hot SD4000 IS, with a few extras added. Thanks to its standout image quality, versatile shooting features, well-done UI, and bright F2.0 lens, it's an excellent choice for anyone seeking a touch-controlled compact camera.

The Canon HS SYSTEM takes the frustration out of low light shooting. Working together with the CMOS sensor to deliver the HS SYSTEM is Canon's advanced DIGIC 4 Image Processor, which actively reduces noise and delivers high speed image processing.

Get high-speed shooting in a point-and-shoot camera: High-speed Burst Mode captures 8.2fps and Super Slow Motion Movie records video at high speeds to allow slow motion playback.

From portraits to landscapes to action scenes, the Powers hot "ELPH 500 HS" digital camera has you covered whether you're shooting stills or videos.

Also, this camera does not score the deciding to merge 2 or 3 shots into a broad depict. And it does not zoom in as close as some opposite cameras. All that said, we shopped around a lot and, in our judgement, the A1200 has the optimum combination of features and filler.
