Canon has added another fabulous camera to its EOS range: the 450D! This digital camera, recently commended at the TIPA awards for its high performances, user-friendliness and ease of use, is packed full of technologies and special features. Its magnificent 12.2-megapixel CMOS sensor takes lifelike shots at rates of 3.5 frames per second, and its large focusing range picks out details from a distance. The EOS 450D includes a self-cleaning system, which uses three different techniques to dislodge dust from the sensor, and it has a DIGIC III processor to guarantee well-balanced, vivid colours in all your shots. The EOS 450D is easy to handle and use thanks to its 3? LCD screen, which is great for direct shooting, and it comes complete with an 18-55 mm f/3.5-5.6 IS lens. Less

A Step In The Right Direction: Canon SD 300

Pros Small design, easy to use.
Cons Not manually controllable, not as good as film.
Recommended it? Yes

I am absolutely amazed at how far digital cameras have gone. I really did not think they would be as small as they are, as cheap, or as easy to use. Definitely ahead of my pessimistic predictions. Yet, they are still not as good as an SLR film camera. So if you are looking for quality or you want... Read full review »

Cons There’s a bit of a learning curve
Recommended it? Yes

I’ve always loved computers and taking pictures, making my love for digital photography a natural progression. My first digital camera was a 2 megapixel, alkaline battery-operated Kodak with no zoom.

I had a 35mm Canon Rebel X camera before I bought this camera about 2 years ago.  Canon has a long history of making quality products.  This is one of them.  This is a great camera.  This camera made it easy transition to digital. The body of the camera is not too heavy. ... Read full review »
