Tuesday, September 27th, 2011

Featuring the latest 3-stop Image Stabilizer for outstanding camera shake reduction, the Canon EF 70-300mm f4-5.6 IS USM zoom lens also features super responsive autofocus.  Replacing the popular EF 75-300mm f4-5.6 IS USM, the world’s first interchangeable lens with Image Stabilizer (IS), the lens is expected to appeal to serious amateur nature and sports photographers [...]

Canon EF 75-300mm f/4-5.6 III Telephoto Zoom Lens Review

Thursday, September 22nd, 2011

This Canon EF 75-300mm f/4-5.6 III Telephoto Zoom Lens has worked out great for me. I totally recommend it. The canon camera is really something.  Just about all of my pictures come out great. It is really hard to take a bad picture with this equipment.  Capture the far-off action of fast-paced sports or zoom [...]

Canon EF 50mm f1.4 USM Standard & Medium Telephoto Lens

Wednesday, September 21st, 2011

The Canon EF 50mm f1.4 speed, meanwhile, is perfect for available-light shooting. But if you want a “starter lens” for shooting at 50mm (or with prime lenses in general), the f1.8 would be a great buy. 50mm is a very useful and intuitive focal length to spend some time with, because it sees the world [...]

Canon EF-S 55-250mm f/4.0-5.6 IS Telephoto Zoom Lens Review

Monday, September 19th, 2011

Great price for an image stabilized zoom lens!  The Canon EF-S 55-250mm f/4.0-5.6 IS Telephoto Zoom Lens is much smaller and lighter than the 70-300 of any manufacturer and much sharper than my Sigma 70-300. The high-zoom-ratio lens is equivalent to a focal length of 88-400mm in the 35mm format. More significantly, the image stabilizer [...]

Canon EOS 550D Digital SLR Camera (inc 18-55 mm f/3.5-5.6 IS Lens Kit)

Monday, May 24th, 2010
[ReviewAZON asin="B0037KM0F8"]The EOS 550D redefines the boundaries of Canon’s consumer DSLR range, incorporating technologies and features more commonly found in semi­professional DSLRs into the compact, lightweight body favoured by consumers. With a newly­developed 18 Megapixel (MP) APS-C CMOS sensor, coupled with Canon’s advanced DIGIC 4 image processor and the ability to shoot Full HD movies, photography enthusiasts are empowered to explore new levels of creativity. The EOS 550D makes Canon’s powerful imaging technology more accessible to consumers. Canon’s advanced DIGIC 4 image processor and 18MP sensor support standard ISO settings of 100 ­ 6400 (expandable to 12800), while enhanced in­camera noise reduction technology boosts performance in low light conditions. The system’s 14­bit image processing also produces smoother tonal gradation and natural looking colours for high quality prints and on-screen display.

For swift and accurate focusing, the EOS 550D features a 9­point AF system with one extra­sensitive cross­type point at the centre for f/2.8 or faster lenses. The EOS 550D also supports high­speed, continuous shooting at 3.7 frames per second (fps). These features provide users with the opportunity to exert greater control over their images, allowing them to capture split­second moments with ease and accuracy.[/ReviewAZON]
