Canon EOS 550D or EOS REBEL T2i Digital Camera - Get Ready!

The Canon EOS series begins with its first release as the Canon 300D or the Digital Rebel. Since then it has built up a solid fan base with a further releases such as EOS 350D, EOS 400D, EOS 450D and the Canon 500D. It also has a high end version the Canon 7D. If you liked these versions of the Canon EOS series, then the new Canon 550D or the EOS Rebel T2i is all set to blow you off. It is a product in between the Canon 500D and the Canon 7D. In fact it leans more towards the Canon 7D in terms of performance and it leans towards the 500D in terms of build.


Some of the standout features of the Canon 550D are

Perfect All-Around Underwater Digital Cameras - Canon EOS 5D

Scuba diving is just not complete without the use of underwater digital cameras. Try to imagine scuba diving in the vast blue seas with all its mystical creatures and rare marine life forms with nothing to capture that "once in a lifetime" experience. If you are new to scuba diving then you would most probably agree that the ocean, with all its creatures and coral life, is simply breathtaking especially when discovering and experiencing it for the first time. Despite seeming a bit strange at first sight, you will start to realize just how peaceful and relaxing the ocean really is after doing a few more dives. However, nothing beats actually getting something to remember out of all those dives because who knows what new experiences will take place on every new dive? The obvious solution to all this is to get your very own dive camera, and most divers recommend and go with the Canon EOS 5D Mark II.

Canon EOS 60D Vs Nikon D7000 - Which One Is Right for You?

The Canon versus Nikon game has been going on since the establishment of the two brands and it has always been a bit of a see-saw performance. In more recent memory, Nikon went top dog with its Nikon D300 and D3 thanks to its super high ISO and beautiful high-res LCD amongst other features. However, Canon then managed to strike back with its Canon EOS 7D and 550D in a time when Nikon's R&D seems to gone MIA (missing in action). Well, the Nikon D7000 and D3100 shows that Nikon have actually been busy in that time. So with the Nikon D90 traditionally competing with the Canon EOS 50D, it makes sense for us to take a look at the Nikon D7000 against the Canon EOS 60D.

Canon EOS 450D Review - Brand New

Here is a Canon EOS 450D Review for anyone who might consider buying this camera.
The Canon EOS 450D Digital SLR camera is classified as a consumer or entry-level model. In other words, Canon's target market when they designed this camera was the average consumer, someone relatively new to photography, but ready to step up from the point-and-click pocket-sized cameras.
They are also a good choice for anyone that is tired of using their phone for taking photos. In some cases, the shots turn out well, but they are simply not the best quality.
If you are a newbie, you might be wondering why some cameras create better images than others. Part of that has to do with the number of megapixels. For example, this model has 12.2 megapixels per image. A camera-phone might have as many as 3 megapixels. The average phones have only about 1-1.5 MPs.
