    Bought this camera a few years ago. First ever Digital SLR. Only 3.5 mega pixels but my goodness what a camera. Since I started an Open University Course on creating better images I have really become a bit of an anorak in how the camera works. It has great appeal (looks wise) it looks even more impressive with the extra battery grip I got. Pictures above ISO 100 reduce the quality drastically when seen at A4, iI found. especially if in poor light. In perfect light conditions, for sport, portrait it is superb. Need lots of batteries though. I have a 2 battery pack as well as a number fo back ... more

    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages no more film processing, very low running costs, ease of use, instant check of image on lcd screen

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Needs Canon flash as no independant brand compatible, No spot meter,needs battery grip, for better handleing

    I've only had my D30 for a month, despite buying it 2nd hand i cant fault it yet, images are sharp and well exposed once you get the hang of the histograp function and exposure compensation. it might only be 3.1 mega pixels but if your using quality optics it wont mater end of the day this has a better resolution than the Nikon D1 pro camera . If you have small hands then you can handle this camera with ease, if not then like me you will need to buy the battery booster grip which as well as giving you more camera to grip and the added battery capacity it also makes the camera look more ... more

    5 Stars Canon D30 21/05/2003
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages all the gadgets of an eos with digital images

    Disadvantages Disadvantages i would suggest to buy another battery

    This camera comes with the quality you would expect from a canon, the ease of use too and will produce perfect pictures on photographic paper up to and beyond a4 i have used this camera under studio conditions and the results are almost perfect. i suggest that this camera, as it is now at a lower than original price, is well worth buying. if you want to take an excelent picture up to a4 this is the camera for you. bearing in mind that most printers only print up to a4, what more do you want :)one thing i would say is if you want this camera make sure you buy lenses that range from 24-70 and 70 ... more
