Your Questions About Canon Digital Slr Reviews

rob answers:

Canon makes the best Point & Shoot cameras, but Nikon makes the best DSLR’s. It’s not the image quality and size that makes the difference between the two, it little things ( that for a pro are really important ) like the location and easily to reach and use buttons on the Nikon’s. The dedicated ISO, White balance and Image Size buttons, the camera ergonomics and how it feels in your hand, and the most important thing, the TWO command dials Nikon has and can do anything as apposed to Canon’s one command dial and having to hold an extra button to make it usable as the second in Nikon’s.

I don’t know how many times we need to go through this here.

The t3i, in case you hadn’t noticed, is a dslr – fully controllable camera, it’s not a gimmick. It’s not loaded with “effects”. These cameras are designed for serious photographers not snappers. They are designed to be under the photographer’s full control for lighting, exposure, shutter speed, ISO and other things.

If it’s effects junk you want buy a cheap point and shoot. If it’s serious photography you want and you’re willing to take the time to learn how to use such a camera the t3i will be excellent.

As you can see, it outperforms the 1000D in a number of ways

rob answers:

All cameras are the same and work the same with a few little differences

watch tutorials on basic camera control: iso, white balance, shutter speed, apperture

brand and model mean nothing really,

rob answers:

By “manual” I’m assuming you mean film. There are lots of advantages in digital cameras as I’m sure you are aware, processing fees, printing only what you want printed, simply deleting those you don’t want, all those things and many more.

All of the above camera suggestions are good and worth consideration.

If you’ve on many web sites you’ve already done lots of research and that’s a good thing. Most of us regulars will recommend Canon or Nikon and also recommend buying all the camera you can afford.
Be especially careful about lens selection. A good lens is the most important single part of any dslr.
