5 Stars Canon 50D is all that!
Former Sony A100 user never was quite happy with the Sony quality overall after 3 yrs.
I decided to become a Canon Gal this past September 09!
Now there is no turning back!
I use my equipment professionally and for personal as well.
I can’t wait to upgrade in 2 yrs for the 5DMII cause if the results from a crop are this good I can imagine with the full frame!
Absolutely recommend this to anyone, if not the 50D, any Canon will do.
5 Stars The Canon 50D is everything it’s supposed to be!
Hey, Canon fans! If you’re like me, you have put off buying this camera because it costs a bit more than the Rebel line. When you weigh the camera differences against the cost difference, I promise you that the 50D will come out on top. I previously have owned two Rebels. The kit lens (28-135mm USM IS) is very good also. I may never be able to afford Canon’s outstanding L-series lenses, but the Canon lenses I do have are Image Stabilized and work perfect for me. The camera is built like a tank and is a little bigger and heavier than the Rebels, but that ends up making the camera feel better in my hands, and I am of average build. The 50D is packed with pro features plus Live View, and is more light sensitive than any other camera I have owned. Amazon had the best price and they had it in my hot little hands in just a few days! Outstanding camera. Outstanding price. Outstanding company… Amazon!!! You may regret putting off this purchase any longer.
5 Stars Still the best small body DSLR today
I did a lot of comparison between so many DSLR camera around this price and even bought a Canon EOS 1000D in the beginning.
I also had the Nikon D40, which was pathetic and disappointing.
This 50D does not disappoint at all.
Robust build quality, decent portability, great battery life, amazing features, image quality, not to mention the admission to join the biggest used camera stuff: lenses, etc.
For this kind of price, it will beat anything else out there: Sony, Pentax, Nikon, etc.
The higher ISO is actually quite amazing, compared to the newer 7D, it only losses after Extended ISO (12800>)
Enough said about this camera, if you’re not planning to do any HD filming then save $700 and get this instead of the new 7D.
5 Stars Canon EOS 50D 15.1MP Digital SLR Camera with EF-S 18-200mm f/3.5-5.6 IS Standard Zoom Lens
What I can say? I must say They are GREAT PRODUCTS! They are very easy to use and result of pictures are great. That makes me kind of like a pro.
5 Stars Canon has done it again !
Once again Cannon has done it! This camera is well made, easy to use, takes breathless pictures and has unlimited resources available to teach you how to expand your horizons in digital photography. I am a
hobby photographer and have taken pictures with this camera and my Canon Digital Rebel that would rival
the best professional photographer’s out there! Cannon makes it easy.

5 Stars Canon Camera
I just received the camera and have been playing with it on some photos. I am not a professional photographer so it is taking me a while to handle the camera. I like the way my photos have been coming out and used one photo for a Christmas Card. The reason I gave the display only 3 stars was simply that I don’t see the image before I shoot it and can’t get everyone into the photo on the picture. I am sure if I read through the book there is a solution to this, but I just haven’t done so yet.
I love this camera and can’t wait to see all that it is capable of in the future.
5 Stars Great camera, great value!
I almost bought a similar camera, but less megapizels, at a local store, but saw this one on Amazon at the last minute and ordered it instead. I’m sure I got the better deal by far. We’re still learning all the features of the camera, but it is lightweight and does almost everything!
5 Stars Great Intro SLR
I switched from a point-and-shoot to this SLR about a year and a half ago and I couldn’t be happier. I’ve gotten way into photography after buying this camera. I’ll typically keep it at home if going somewhere where it will easily get spilled on or dropped (ie. bars, etc.), but for more events and photo ops it’s wonderful. It does take a little getting used to it’s size if you’re moving from a point-and-shoot to an SLR for the first time, but it is well worth the switch! When I purchased the XSi, I was deciding between this one and a Nikon equivilant. After playing with both of them, I ended up going with the Canon – the buttons are placed better and the features you get for the value were better in my opinion. Can’t go wrong!
1 Star Bad Image Quality
For a long time I refrained from writing this review, believing that probably I was to blame for the subpar image quality (out of focus) pictures I was getting. But my conclusion is that it was not me. It was the camera.
I had such a great experience with the Canon S2IS that I was ready to move up to my first DSLR camera, and what better than the same brand. I enthusiastically ordered the Xsi with the supplied kit lens. I soon realized that no matter which focus setting I used, many pictures, both indoor and outdoor, were slightly out of focus, and slightly underexposed. I took side-by-side pictures together with my S2IS, and was shocked to see that the older, 5 MP camera took pictures much, much better than the Xsi.
I wrote to Canon customer service, and they blamed it on the “kit” lens. They suggested I buy a lens with a wider aperture (which was about $1,000, so I thought, “You’re kidding”). I did not buy the lens, but I did buy an external flash ($350), and the image quality was just the same. I was so disgusted with the situation that I basically stopped using the camera, and continued using the old one instead.
After some time, I really gave up on the camera and decided to return it, together with the flash. Fortunately, Amazon has fantastic customer sevice, and everything worked out without a problem.
In conclusion, my camera definitely had focus problems. These focus problems caused the pictures to be improperly exposed, and the flash strength to be slightly inexact, all contributing to bad image quality. For me, my Xsi’s 12 MP sensor and all its other features were worthless if the image quality was lower than that of my 5 MP camera. I am now hesitant to buy another Canon camera, afraid of a repeat of this.
One star for the camera, and five stars for Amazon’s customer service.
4 Stars Great pictures but disappointed in the live view mode
I use my camera for taking pictures of our one year old mostly. It is a great camera for small children because it can take a picture so fast you don’t miss out on a good smile. I am disappionted in the live view mode. It is very hard to use and you can not use it in the auto modes. They don’t tell you that up front. If you want to take pictures mostly with your LCD screen in live mode this is not the camera for you. If you enjoy using the view finder this is a great camera for the price.
