Canon EOS Camera

The Canon Speedlite 430ex ii Flash brings a new level of versatility and capability to flash photography. This flash features a powerful flash guide number of 141 ft./43m at ISO 100, along with a fast recycling time in a compact, durable body.

A one touch quick lock mechanism makes it easy to attach or detach the 430ex ii from the camera and a metal foot is added for strength and durability. Flash controls can now also be set through the LCD screen on compatible EOS Digital SLR cameras. The Speedlite 430ex ii is also quieter, the recycle time is 20 percent faster and since it is compatible with Canon’s wireless E-TTL, it can be used as an affordable “slave unit.”

By C Calder
The Speedlite 430EX II flash is a solid unit. It contains most of the upgrades that its big brother received. A metal foot finally, with a twist-lock that holds it totally securely to the top of the camera, yet removes in less than a second when you want to take it off, are true values and make a excellent flash unit even better. Canon quality is demonstrated in every aspect…More

I use this external flash unit with my Canon Rebel xTi. The flash does a great job calculating the amount of light it needs to release to expose the photo, making grossly over exposed or underexposed photos a thing of the past. The ability to bounce the flash off of medium height white ceilings gives you great looking photos to the point where I now prefer using my flash instead of relying on high ISOs, fast lenses and low aperature numbers…More

Wow. The 430 EX II exceeded my expectations! What a great flash. I use it with an XSI and it is absolutely awesome. I keep it aimed up at the ceiling and it produces great results. It is so bright! When you use it in conjunction with the zoom, it performs awesome too….More

Such is the case with the Canon EOS Rebel T1i

The Canon EOS Rebel T1i 15.1 MP CMOS Digital SLR Camera has been such a hot best selling item, that folks have left hundreds of reviews.  This not only indicates the power of the Canon brand, but also the reliability of their products.  So what do folks say about this monster of a digital camera?

First off, over 70% of the reviews are 5 star ratings!  This is a very good figure for such a popular product.  This not only means that consumers like it when they purchase, but it also means that they appreciate the product long after the purchase.

As an example here is one review that was placed after using this extraordinary camera for a week:

The T1i is a bit on the light end, yet the construction still feels solid. For the camera’s price point, you’d be hard pressed to find any digital SLR out there which gives you all the capabilities and growth range of the Canon T1i. The camera is intuitive enough for those new to photography to pick and learn easily, yet configurable enough for advanced amateurs…

Another reviewer tells of his first time experience:

In using the camera, the first thing you’ll notice over the previous Rebels is the marvelous LCD screen…The T1i carries on the tradition of Canon Rebels with a lot of “curbside appeal” matched with solid performance.

All in all, the reviews are solid and the same, one after another, reliability, ease of use,  crystal clear display, a bit heavy or bulky, but a major improvement over previous models, and the competition.

In choosing a high end digital camera, which type is best for the professional or hobbyist?

The line of Canon EOS digital SLR cameras are among the best out there.

The canon eos digital slr camera is a leading line of popular digital 35mm cameras.  For years the Canon name has been synonymous with digital imaging, printers, scanners, binoculars, film and digital cameras.  Since 1933 they have been producing 35mm film SLR cameras.  In 1987, they began the EOS Single-lens reflex camera system.  Now EOS has become the only SLR camera system used by Canon.  Today digital EOS SLR cameras are the norm.

Here are some of the best selling EOS cameras out there right now:

Canon EOS Rebel T1i 15.1 MP CMOS Digital SLR Camera.  Among Canon’s bestselling EOS cameras, the EOS Rebel T1i is perhaps the best out there.  This camera is loaded with both refined and new features.  It comes with a new 15.1 Megapixel CMOS sensor, a DIGIC 4 Image Processor, a 3.0-inch Clear View LCD with anti reflective and scratch resistant coating, and is compatible with the EOS System of lenses and Speedlites.  This camera also has remarkable Full HD video capture capability at resolutions up to 1920 x 1080.

Canon EOS Rebel XSi 12.2 MP Digital SLR Camera .  This camera, according to a popular camera review site, “represents Canon’s response to the increasingly crowded and competitive nature of the entry-level DSLR market.“  With this camera, canon brings technological innovation to everyday people. It features the EOS Integrated Cleaning System (ICS),  A Live View Function (LVF), powerful DIGIC III Image Processing, plus a new 12.2-megapixel CMOS sensor.  It is also available in a kit which contains the new EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS lens with Optical Image Stabilizer.

Canon EOS Rebel XS 10.1 MP Digital SLR Camera.  This 10MP camera is also one of Canon’s secret weapons to reach the everyday photographer.  It has easy to use controls, a compact design, and 2 and a half inch LCD screen, and Live View Function (LVF).

Most Canon cameras can come with either a zoom lens, or just the body only.

Photography is a vast field, and it can sometimes be difficult to  get  started.   While there is a lot of material out there for beginners, much of it is quite general and doesn’t get into a lot of  specifics.  Canon’s EOS line of cameras are the ultimate “easy to get started” digital camera, either for the beginner or the professional who wants to delve into a more deeper line of photography .
