Canon 450D DSLR camera - First Look review 2008-01-28 13:31:00 Canon has updated its entry-level digital camera for the first time in over 15 months, but has the wait been worth it? We had a chance to get an early hands on with the new 450D (or the Digital Rebel XSi for our American readers) at the company's Spring Collection event in London.Normally when a DSLR from Canon is updated there are tweaks here and there perhaps implying why it has always gone for the increase of the number 50 in the model number rather than a whole 100. But here it seems Canon has not simply stopped at increasing the megapixel count from 10 to a 12.2-megapixel CMOS sensor but added stacks of other features and design changes.From a design perspective it's not a completely new design but there are improvements and changes from the 400D. The most obvious is the increase in screen size from 2.5 to 3-inches.The change, which also promises to be 50% brighter than the one on the 400D makes a massive difference especially when viewing images on playback. Because of the new ...

Eye-Fi Wireless SD Card Review 2008-01-28 13:26:00 Wireless image transfer has been gaining interest and popularity by leaps and bounds in the past year. At CES earlier this month, we reported on several manufacturers who are looking to get in to the built-in wireless transfer game, allowing users to send photos straight from their cameras to their computers or web-based photo sharing services. In the aftermarket, however, the Eye-Fi Wireless SD Card promises similar functionality for any camera that shoots JPEGs and supports SD memory. Eye-Fi has built a lot of buzz around this one-of-a-kind accessory, and I've been eager to get my hands on one for a quick review.A neat concept that works flawlessly as a transfer solution (so long as you recognize its limitations), the Eye-Fi shows off what may well be the future of moving images from camera to computer. Range, configuration, and file type limitations, however, sometimes left me wishing for more.David Rasnake more : digitalcamerareview ...

Canon EOS 1Ds Mark III Digital SLR Review 2008-01-26 08:25:00 It is always exciting to hear that your most-used piece of photography kit is being replaced with a new and improved model - as was the case for me with the announcement of the Canon EOS 1Ds Mark III. The 1Ds III is Canon's ultra-high-end DSLR, delivering top-of-the-line image quality from a top-of-the-line shooting system matched to a top-of-the-line physical structure. If you read the Canon EOS 1D Mark III Review (Canon's other current-at-this-time 1-Series DSLR), you are going to think that much of the Canon EOS 1Ds Mark III review sounds familiar. And for a good reason. These two redesigned-from-the-ground-up cameras are mostly identical with the exception of a few significant differences - including the sensor size/resolution (and associated parts including the viewfinder) and the max frame rate/buffer depth. Here is how they and the other current Canon DSLRs compare in these and other regards ... more : ...

Pre-mount Your Rain Cover For Quick Deployment With Hydrophobia 2008-01-26 08:23:00 Hydrophobia™ 300 - 600 is the first rain cover specifically designed to be pre-mounted for quick deployment. When in the field, where inclement weather can destroy a shot or gear, photographers need a simple and hassle free system for immediately deploying a rain cover to protect their SLRs and lenses.When it appears it may rain, photographers attach the Hydrophobia over their lenses before going out into the field, rolling it up tight and out of the way.

The rain cover fits onto a 300 f2.8, 400 f2.8, 500 f4, and 600 f4, making it ideally suited for sports and nature photographers.Hydrophobia comes with two extended sleeves through which photographers insert their arms to access all of their camera controls.
