Advantages: Light weight yet robust
Disadvantages: Small sensor limit's full 35mm lenses, slightly red cast.

I am a professional photographer and use a 20D as one of my backups. This is an excellent semi pro camera that is user friendly enough for any beginner. With image quality suitable for printing up to A2 from a RAW file. I would strongly recommend shooting in RAW wherever possible as the JPEG compression can be very limiting for post shoot editing and any image correction you may need to apply. To get the most out of the camera I would recommend ... Read review

Advantages: 2.5" LCD screen, 5FPS
Disadvantages: only 8 megapixels

Another typical camera by Canon. The 30D comes as an upgrade from the very successful 20D. Owning this DSLR I can only say that you can feel the quality. As well as being ergonomic the button layout is perfect. On other moddles some buttons are to small the press especially with gloves on. Picture quality is excellent colours are replicated well from natural skin tones to the vivid colours of the camera. A chose this camera as my first DSLR as it ...
...shooting at this speed requires a high shutter speed. Well you were right to get 5fps you will have to be shooting at 1/4000 sec although 4fps is a more realistic speed for average shooting. This still seems fast enough and produces sharp images especially when using AI and Servo modes with moving subjects. Overall this is an excellent camera and is very user freindly due to design and the large 2.5" lcd screen. If you are considering buying this ... Read review

Advantages: Flash compensation setting
Disadvantages: External flash is a must when taking group indoor shots

Very nice camera. Especially the macro shots. Performance in low light /indoor condition not that good but an external flash will do the thing. Handling is good and the placement of knobs and function buttons are well placed. Taking pictures with high ISO setting is nice, especially if the condition requires no firing of flash. Battery performance is at par. You can take several shots even if you are using internal flash. I like the flash compensation ... Read review

Advantages: Everything, it's perfection in its most perfect form.
Disadvantages: If you drop, you pay the price!

...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. Weighing less than a kg, the camera can be carried with minimal effort to any location (be it jungle to skyscraper). A fully adjustable shutter speed can help you capture those city lights to moving people. ... Read review

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. ... Read review
