cos seldom shoot low light during travel cos gotta bring tripod...but that's just me.
was there on friday, wanted to use my own CF card and try out iso800. like to bring back and print to check for noise. crew there says no, as i should be able to tell from the lcd!!??
i don't even trust my sony crt n he expect me to trust that 1.8" lcd!!
very disappointed as i was hoping to buy it on thursday, guess got to wait for a friend to buy in order to check that out.
maybe by then the VG also arrived on our shore.
ps- a question for CANON Singapore; why r we sucking hind tit? don't we pay good money for our equipment?

Hi,
Judeseah
Tough luck.
This staff at IT show did not know what he or she was talking about.
Not everyone is well trained. And quite rude too.
And why so sticky about letting you try an image with your own CF card?
Wow, they can tell "noise" from the small LCD?
Then the noise problem must be very bad.
Some may just be part-timers, some are actually sales staff from certain photo shops co-opted to sales counter duty for the show by their bosses.

ya the shutter sound was weird....its sounded similar to the e300...if I remembered correctly :sweatsm:
when i was at mscolor last fri (see my initial thots in the 350D at IT show thread), there were some guys after me who were 'coo-ing' and 'ahhh-ing' over the 350D. so, some do mind the smallness, others love it. to each his/her own.
despite my reservations over the size and slight leh cheyness over the menu selection, its still a pretty darn good cam for beginners or those looking for a small & handy back-up cam. its gets the job done, and do it well. so, for those buying or thinking of buying, best go and touch-touch for urself. see it and decide for urself whether this is the right cam for u.
oh yeah, as for the canon 'staff'... (note the puntcuations), they are only part-timer students or some holiday workers. very common for all booths during these fairs. put it simply - they know nuts abt the products they are selling except to repeat the standard sales line and close the sale asap to earn their commission. of course, there are some who are more knowledgable. but, by and large... i normally :ipuke: blood when i asked them questions in the fairs.... :bsmilie:

Ok first of all I'm a great believer in any camera being great in the hands of someone who knows how to use it. I was just checking out people's preference. Personally i like something that my hand won't swallow at least.
Noise wise though, from yan yew kay's pic the noise is pretty visible at the shadow area near the yellow Canon sign. i can't imagine that it would be better at a 100% crop.

350d is quit a good option. other than spot metering,i would prefer 350d rahter than d70.
JUST MY POINT OF VIEW>NO WAR PLS
BODY IS REALLY look LIKE A TOY>MORE LIKE A small machine gun.IT really can do more than what u can imagine.
BUY BUY BUY

For those who are interested, here's some 100% crop of snaps using 300D & 350D @ iso 1600. (sorry but I sold the 300D so the comparison is not the same scene).
350D 100% crop, 1/5 sec, f5, Canon 18-55mm:
350D 100% crop, 1/5 sec, f5, Canon 18-55mm, Neatimage (auto profile):
350D full image (red box showing cropped area):
300D 100% crop, 1/40 sec, f3.5, Sigma 18-125mm:
IMHO the 350d's noise pattern is more uniform and aesthetically pleasing, like film grain.
cheers,
