Canon EOS 1000D Help.

[zhengyank]

Hello All,

I'm new to this wonderful forum and have a great interest in photography.
Nevertheless, i am a newbie in DSLR and is considering to get a DSLR soon.

I've got a few questions to ask about Canon EOS 1000D.
The model which i've been reading about.

With EOS 1000D, will i be able to shoot good pictures of:

1) People / Group Pictures
2) Nature / Landscape
3) Fireworks / Night Landscapes
4) Idols in Indoor Concerts

May i also now the price of EOS 1000D in Singapore?

Thanks in advance for your reply!

Welcome to the forum!

That's a very vague question you're asking.. The 1000D is definately very capable of delivering good pictures, of cos with a certain limitation when compared to the higher end models.. The camera body is just the tip of the iceberg, there are many other factors that affect the quality of a picture.. the lens you attach, your camera settings, compentacy of the photographer etc..

Should be about slightly more than 1K I think.. other CS users prob can give you a more detailed answer about its price..

So in short if i wan better quality photos, i may have to change/ upgrade to better lenses?
I'll read up the pinned guides for more help.

So sorry, as im quite new to DSLR, so do pardon me for my "noob" questions.

Where did you get it from?
I heard that it isn't officially launched yet? =x


Is it possible if you could shoot some picture with your new cam for us to have a look?

New with dSLR so a disclaimer is in order, the outcome of the photo is not a reflection of the quality of the camera

The 55-250 goes for S$360, so take that price off and you get S$995 at John 3:16.

May i ask, the 55- 250 is it a higher grade equipment?
If we get it at 995$ is a a full set which includes the body and the lense thingy?

Alan photo selling for $950 (w/ gst)
Saw last wk at HN selling for $1099 - 8% - 8% only with capitaland card, but think it ended liao, not sure.

Erm, suggest you do a little reading up on SLR system and focal lengths. The 55-250 is a long lens, intended and used for subjects that are generally further away.

A kit set includes the camera body, and a standard zoom lens (which is good enough for starting off). In the EOS 1000D's case, I believe you are also getting a 4GB SD card as a free gift (not sure what else though, because it varies from time to time).

Ok, thanks a lot for your reply!
From what i read, the original lens is the Canon EF-S 18-55mm IS lens. Am i right? =x

saggice, is Alan photo still selling at that price?

It's a capable budget camera that can do all of the above subjected to the photgrapher and lenses. Kit retail street price should be around SGD$999.
