...serious amateur and professional photographers, Canon has also released the £1275 EOS 10D, which succeeds the EOS D60. A 6.4 million pixel digital SLR with a seven point wide area autofocus system, it is the first digital SLR camera to feature Direct Print capability. It can save images simultaneously in both RAW and JPEG formats, with a choice of six JPEG file sizes. It covers ISO 100-1600, adheres to the Adobe RGB Colour Space standard and can ... ...a miserly old man.
Canon have built a strong reputation in the digital camera market, especially at the top end and the EOS 10D maintains that excellent rep, which is very well deserved. Price is a bit of a stinker, but big boys do love their expensive big toys. It’s just that it’s sometimes hard to convince the wife to let you splash… ...

Advantages: Image quality, handling, speed of operation, flexibility of controls, build quality, extensive system, exceptional long exposures Disadvantages: No memory card included (that's how far I am reaching on this one...)
...thinking that this was another Canon EOS 35mm camera. AF is fast and the AI focus mode that tracks a subject is very accurate indeed. Being able to grab 9 shots in three seconds is also handy for those who like to shoot sports and nature where timing is of the essence.
My own area is in landscape photography, an acid test where digital cameras are concerned, and many have failed in my eyes. It all boils down to fine detail resolution, latitude, ... ...up large, the images from Canon EOS digitals always look more 'filmy' than their competitors. Perhaps it is the very restrained in-camera processing - no unsightly sharpening artefacts, no agressive noise reduction algorithms reducing the fine detail and textures captured. The end result is outstanding. Stand an A3 print from this next to an A3 print from a 35mm slide and you'd be hard pressed to spot the difference - except that the 10D would have ...

Advantages: Image quality, handling, value for money Disadvantages: Start up time
The Canon 10D is the third DSLR of the xxD line by Canon, which now contains 7 cameras. In my opinion the 10D is one of the best, for a number of reasons. The 6mp sensor allows prints to be made at A3 size or more, while reducing noise in the images. It also features a Magnesium Alloy body which feels very solid, and adds to the impression that this camera is more expensive than it actually is - it can be found very cheaply now from eBay or professional ... ...wide-angle lenses may find that they are not so wide when coupled with the 10D. To sum up, the Canon 10D is one of Canon's best DSLRs to date, with superb quality images and handling, only let down by small details such as a long startup time. A solid 9/10. ...

Advantages: Good build quality, excellent "feel", takes some non-digital EOS lenses Disadvantages: Very expensive, poor quality screen, some control switches are way too small
I have owned my 10D for 10 months and during that time I have used it in most conditions and for most types of photography. It is without doubt a robust and generally well built camera. However if like me, your decision to purchase is based on the fact that you can use all your old EOS lenses, you should note that not ALL EOS lenses do in fact work with this model (I think it would be best to take your existing lenses to the dealer and check yourself!) ... ...Once you have established which of your lenses DO work, you then have to take into account that because the 10D has a small sensor array the effective length of your lenses is multiplied by 1.6 (thus your favorite 28mm wide angle is now a not so useful 44.8mm! and your nice 300mm telephoto has magically become 480mm and can no longer be used hand held!...of course none of this applies to the purpose built cannon digital EOS lenses which are fabulous! ...

Advantages: Versatility, sharp 6.3 MP pictures, huge battery time, uses standard Canon lenses. Disadvantages: Just a little short of professional standards with speed of multi-shots and with landscape shooting. Small LCD screen.
A very sturdy, rugged, enthusiast/professional SLR camera which uses Canon's standard EF range of lenses. A host of features make this a fun camera to use. I have had mine for several months now and have used it for landscapes, fashion, weddings, portraits, and sports. With a 1 GB IBM Microdrive, it takes about 400 high quality pictures in a single session (files come out at about 2 Mb in size depending on features chosen for the shot). The rechargeable ... ...one battery), but a spare battery is recommended for long outings. The picture quality is superb, even when output to A3+ size. A degree of sharpening may be necessary in some shots. The camera handling is excellent and the grip and feel are fully ergonomic. Pictures can be viewed with zoom capability on the small LCD screen which is just adequate to determine the basic colour, lighting, and framing of the shot. Shutter speed, aperture settings, ...

The EOS 10D's 6.3 megapixel Canon CMOS sensor delivers superbly detailed images, and 7-point high-speed AF allows precise focusing over a wide area. A powerful DIGIC (DIGital Imaging Core) processor optimizes color rendition. High speed processing means a continuous burst of 9 shots at 3 frames per second is possible. It also extends the camera's battery life. The EOS 10D can write RAW and JPEG files simultaneously, while there's a choice of 6 JPEG resolution settings. For enhanced exposure stability, the EOS 10D has a new evaluative metering system for both daylight and flash. As well as sRGB, the EOS 10D features Adobe RGB. This improves color rendition by capturing colors across an extremely wide spectrum. An ISO speed range from 100 - 1600 (3200 Extended HI accessible via the ISO expansion menu) offers extensive shooting flexibility whatever the lighting conditions. 9 white balance modes are available Auto, Daylight, Shade, Cloudy, Tungsten, Fluorescent, Flash, Custom and Color Temperature. In Color Temperature mode, users manually select the warmth they require from the Kelvin scale (2800K to 10000K in 100K increments). With White Balance Bracketing, the EOS 10D automatically captures three bracketed shots (normal, reddish and bluish) with one release of the shutter. An Intelligent Orientation Sensor detects whether the camera is being held horizontally or vertically when shooting. This gives more accurate exposures. It also means easy viewing and editing, since shots appear the right way up on the LCD, in ZoomBrowser on the computer screen or on TV. The EOS 10D's LCD offers 5 levels of brightness. It can be brightened so it's easier to see or dimmed so it's less intrusive and saves power. The menu display offers the choice of 12 different languages. With a robust magnesium alloy body, the EOS 10D has outstanding durability and a distinctive presence. It features an ergonomic hand-grip which makes extended shooting very comfortable. The EOS 10D is the first digital EOS camera to feature Direct Print. High-resolution prints can be obtained by connecting straight to a Canon Bubble Jet or Card Photo Printer. The EOS 10D has FAT 16/32 data storage, allowing compatibility with high capacity CF cards over 2GB. The EOS 10D is compatible with the extensive EOS range of accessories.

Travels with my 400D
I’ve been putting off writing this review for months and months. I’ve been waiting until I know just about as much about the camera as I possibly can, but I’ve come to the conclusion that this will never happen, more

I owned a 20D before this and so my view is relative to that camera. The 5D feels very much like the 20D and 30D in that it is pretty much the same size and operationally very similar except for not having any kind of built-in flash.

The Canon 20D is awesome. No doubt about it. It was my first step into DSLR territory after years with film slrs and I can't believe I didnt make the change sooner.
Firstly, if you familiar with SLR's and especially canon's (as i was) you'll have no... more
At last, a miracle in SLR technology. The Canon EOS focuses back to the 'old school' photographers world and can help even an amateur into a new dimension of imagery.
Memory storage is not a problem with a fully accessible and easy to use flash space.... more
