Review of Canon 30D

[jlchong]

Seriously, I wonder how many of us can push the capability of the camera body to the max, and found that the camera become the "limitation". If you really need anything better, there is always Canon 1-series.... as Canon users, we already have the widest range of consumer to professional bodies and lenses to choose from, and not just stuck with a few bodies with limited upgrading path.

I really like this part about how many of us can push the camera to the max. :bsmilie:

EOS 50D...
3" LCD Touch Screen
DigicIII chip, 0 noise at ISO3200
ISO modes 50-6400
Full frame
External twist dial WB & Exposure Compensation selector
High speed crop 1x, 1.3x & 1.6x
Fuji CCD Sensor for excellent colour redention & excellent out-of-camera JPEGs
Super dynamic range of sensor that allows upto +/-8 EV instead of the current +/-2 EV
Ultra-large 1GB buffer memory allowing for 10fps

Ok, all we have to do is wait. :bsmilie:

I rather giveup the Fuji CCD...

Is it going to be "Made in Japan" or "Made in China"? :think: :think:

i guess upgrade 350D to 30D will be a right choice.....

[holeinone]

I doubt it will be in SIngapore stores next week. Japan is only getting it at the end of the month.

 

[affando]

finally i can get a digtal body

 

[saperboy]

I have a feeling that it'll be out within this week... the latest is next week. It even might be out in time for the upcoming PC show.

 

[Virgo]

Agree. I'll upgrade my 10D if the price is right.

will stick with my 20D also...a good upgrade for the 10D though.

 

[oracle0711]

Don't think it will be out so soon. Was at CP few days back to check out other things and conveniently ask about the 30D but was told no indication from Canon Singapore yet. They are not confident that it will be out during the upcoming PC show too.

well, I spoke to a reliable retailer yesterday and I was told that the stocks are in Singapore already ready and waiting in the warehouse. Just don't know when would Canon release them. Really hope they'd market them as (1)body, (2) body+18-55mm kit, and the (3)enthusiast kit +17-85mm IS kit. I saw the enthusiast kit as available option in OZ Canon website. All these 3 options are there complete with pricing.
