New Camera
I picked up a Canon 20D today. Was previously shooting with a Digital Rebel which I didnt have any problems with but me and the wife who is also into photography arent good at sharing!  So I bought the 20D. My lenses and accessories fit so It was my best deal in the price range. As far as image quality and functions compared to the rebel... maybe a little better but no super impressive advantages over the rebel. I deffinetly liked the button configuration on the rebel. Aperature changes are a bit lame on the 20d. Here it is:  Ran out with it real quick and snapped a few shots... Do dogs count as models?    Just bored and thought I would share...

Jan 21 06 12:56 am Link I've never held the Rebel so I don't know what the knobs are configured like. I have the 10D and the 20D and both are identical with the exception of the on/off switch and the joystick. I really like the 20D for speed, but the total image size I liked the 10D cause I didn't have to crop to print at 8x12. From the top image, it looks like your shooting in Manual which should make adjusting the Aperature the same on the Canon's Jan 21 06 01:01 am Link The second photo of the dog seems nice, but there seems to be a hint of camera shake, and underexposure.

Jan 21 06 08:49 am Link Try using CF 4:1 I have had all my cameras set up like that since I switched to Canon in 1996.. Much more control over the focus of the camera... JP Jan 21 06 11:25 am Link I have the RebelXT and I can use a 20D through work and a markII if I really needed it. Personally I still like the way the layout is on the XT also, the one thing I don't like about the 20D is that I cannot use my remote to trigger the camera. Jan 21 06 11:34 am Link Awwwww!! What a beautiful dog! -Dave Jan 21 06 12:35 pm Link I did some camera comparison today between the 300d (digital rebel) and the new 20d. Was mainly a test to see if they differed in quality at different ISo levels. Both were tested with the kit lens... A canon efs 18-55 (Aperture 10). All shots where shot at what the camera considered "correct exposure". This first one is the 300d shot with a 100 ISO.  The 20d at 100 ISO  At 100 ISO there doesnt seem to be much difference at all in the quality of the shots. ____________________________________ Next I shot at a 400 ISO The 300d  The 20d  Now at 400 im noticing a clearer image with the 20d. Also appears that the 20d did a better job with selecting the proper white balance. _____________________________________ This is the 300d at a 1600 ISO  And the 20d  Again slightly better performance at higher ISO with the 20 but both are showing a little noise. _____________________________________ This is just an extra... Shot with the 20d using my efs 18-85 IS and using a bounce flash from the 430ex.  Jan 21 06 03:43 pm Link you drink a lot, and your dog is awesome Jan 21 06 04:55 pm Link |
