The Canon EOS 450D

Advantages: high quality images, great design, rugged yet light, good value, quick
Disadvantages: auto modes can be dodgy in extreme lighting, only one control wheel, bad live view

Canon has for a long time been renowned for its high quality cameras with superb image quality and good value for money. The Canon EOS 450D is no exception: rugged build, high quality images from Canon's renowned CMOS sensor, and good battery life and usability all contribute to the making of an excellent entry lever DSLR camera. In terms of picture quality, I feel Canon is unrivalled, and the 450D upholds this reputation. The 12.2MP and CMOS sensor ...
...the Canon has no issues sensoring quickly and almost always producing a result in auto and manual modes. The meter is swift and reliable, producing results that are frequently bettered by knowledge of the manual mode and histogram, but nevertheless excellent. The images from low light situations are also very good, but with the 450D, noise can prove an issue for the serious photographer in darker patches of a photo, but only at the very highest ISO ...

Canon EOS 450D This is a digital SLR camera this is a Single Lens Reflex that allows you to see exactly what you are going to take a photo of via the internal mirrors of the SLR system which improves picture quality and ease of taking pictures. It is manufactured by the well known brand Canon they make a lot of photography equipment and I see them as a trusted quality brand. This helped me make my buying decision when choosing this model of digital ...
...the idea after working the Canon EOS 450D out and getting used to it, he even said that it was better than his previous camera. The Canon EOS 450D has 12.2 Mega pixel CMOS (Complimentary Mental Oxide Semiconductor)sensor This feature helps take sharp images which are brilliant for enlarging and make cropping easy without loosing any quality from the image. It also helps take good quality pictures even when the light isn't brilliant. The CMOS sensor ...

Canon EOS 450D - Superb!

Advantages: Extremely easy to use, fantastic picture quality, long battery life.
Disadvantages: I haven't found any!

Introduction I bought the Canon EOS 450D a couple of months ago as my first SLR - and i can honestly say its an absolute pleasure to use. For someone like me who is a total novice in photography terms (but very willing to learn!) this camera is superb. Ease of use My friend and I researched SLR cameras for hours to try to find a camera for me. I can only be described as a beginner but I wanted to take the plunge and do some 'real' photography. The ...
...Picture Quality Since having the Canon 450D i have also purchased a 'nifty' fifty lens too. I have taken numerous photographs with both lenses with this camera and i can honestly say that the picture quality is top notch. The colour, contrast and sharpness of the pictures never fails to amaze me - sometimes i can't even believe i've taken them! Absolutely fantastic. Reliability I have only had the camera for a few months now but i've never had any ...

Canon EOS 450D - is it worth it?

Advantages: good features, reasonable price, looks good
Disadvantages: would prefer an increase of maximum ISO to 3200

...range of the market. The Canon EOS 450D fits quite nicely in the mid level range of the market and is suitable for both experienced and new photographers. The r.r.p. is about £670 but after quickly searching, you can expect to pay £430 (body only) or a reasonable £510 with the 18 - 55mm IS lens. I think this price is about right taking into consideration the features and comparison with the other DSLR's in the same mid level range. The sensor is ...
...quite attractive with a typical Canon style body which has some smooth curves on the top and a ergonomic grip. In conclusion, the camera is good enough for most people which the features necessary to produce good quality photographs, although remember, the photographer still does most of the work! ...

eos 450d

Advantages: excellent picture quality. clear lcd screen. simple menu
Disadvantages: bulky

Canon have released an excellent performing camera. This camera is nearly as good as the more expensive eos 40D. The menu is incredibly easy to use even for a novice like me. The 3 inch lcd screen is very clear and simple to understand. The 12 million pixels creates beautiful pictures and gives you massive scope for enlarging and cropping and still create excellent clarity pictures after zooming in on PC. The ability to take raw pictures boosts ...

Expensive lenses

Advantages: Excellent build quality, superb CMOS sensor, low noise at high ISO.
Disadvantages: Poor kit lenses

...shortcomings of investing in this Canon system. Given the superb performance of the CMOS image sensor, particularly at high sensitivity settings, the lenses offered by Canon as 'kit' lenses are somewhat of a let-down and disappointment for the following reasons: The camera body does not have image stabilisation. If you wish to have this facility each lens you buy has to have it built in. This makes the lenses inherently more expensive than similar ...
...of polarising filters difficult. Canon do not supply lens hoods with their lenses and, unless you opt for cheap alternatives, are quite expensive to add on. To get the best from the resolving capabilities of this excellent camera one really needs to go for the more up-market Canon lenses and they don't come cheap. So beware, you may end up spending quite a lot of money getting this camera kitted out to your satisfaction. ...

Advantages: Fantastic picture quality, low noise, quite light weight for a digital SLR

Canon 450d - great, but don't get it wet.

Advantages: simple to use, typical canon menus
Disadvantages: not too waterproof

...as a spare alongside my Canon EOS 40D, and although the slightly different menu systems took a bit of time to adjust to, the menus themselves are very simple to use. The live view helps for 'paparazzi style' shots or when the camera is on a tripod but can sometimes get a bit annoying if you are not used to it. The only real issue I had was its weather proofing. As a motorsport photographer my equipment is exposed to all sorts of weather conditions, ...

Canon EOS 450D - My Perfect Camera

Advantages: easy to use, light, excellent quality, suits any level
Disadvantages: none I can think of!

This was my first 'proper' camera (meaning an SLR, of course), and I bought it earlier this year with my first proper wage cheque. I had always used my Dad's cameras before, favouring the Pentax ME Super, so this was something of a technological leap for me, and I was a little nervous about using it! I needn't have worried. Even if, like me, you have managed to combine a love of photography with a complete ineptitude for technology, you will not ...
...use, and if you can't be bothered to read the instructions, the simple expedient of pushing buttons in varying orders until you get what you want also works. The body fits beautifully into your hand, and is not too heavy, so carrying and using this camera is not a chore. There are some excellent lenses available which are compatible with the body, along with some standard but perfectly serviceable ones, if you're not feeling particularly rich!. The ...
