As far as framing is concerned, the cameras that have live view were a test favorite. They are quicker focusing and more flexible as well. The Canon 50D and 7D are obviously designed for use with much more than family photos and junior’s soccer games. What is surprising is the tremendous difference.
#Canon rebel xs review 2010 professional#
The 3 Rebel Cameras obviously are geared more towards consumers and as such they do not provide the same level of image quality or color reproduction as the two more professional models. These were taken under very controlled circumstances so the differences as you can see are quite pronounced and quite suprising: White Balance setting: 5200K (or as close as possible) 18-55mm Lens with Macro Lens attachmentĥ. The settings used for the cameras were as follows:ġ. You can also check out the Open and Look hands on reviews for the cameras: Canon 7D, Canon 50D, Canon Rebel XS (1000D) You can skip to the bottom for the conclusion but we don’t recommend it. The basic idea is the parity was maintained as faithfully as possible. For example we used a 5200 Kelvin setting on the 50D and 7D and the daylight setting on the other cameras which is listed as approx. We tried to match them as best we could which is pretty close. The Canon 50D and 7D have completely tunable Kelvin settings whereas the others have more basic settings. The settings were kept the same on each camera as where the focal length, shutter speed, aperture setting and white balance setting. Testing was done for the following categories of shots: Both lenses are EF-S lenses designed for the smaller APC sized sensors that all five cameras have. We used 2 Canon Lenses and one macro lens attachment to find out. The Lenses where the venerable 18-55IS and the newish 55-250mm IS. A camera’s ability to reproduce what you see through the lens is a hallmark of a good camera and none of our quintet disappointed. Namely the Canon EOS 7D, 50D, Rebel T1i, XSi, and XS. What about image quality? When conditions are the same and controlled can one really tell the difference between cameras? We’ve decided to settle the question by pitting 5 of Canon’s DSLR pro-sumer camera’s against each other. Ergonomics also play a roll when making a decision as to which camera to purchase or use for a particular situation. There are also several features available that’ll make a difference if you’re a pro. It’s also true that some cameras offer faster rates of image capture which makes for better action shots. The question has been raised time and again: Does the camera make a difference? Some photographers say aye and others nay. Sure megapixels make a difference when you are cropping or blowing up a picture.
