1080p HD Time for your head to start spinning: In September 2008, Nikon introduced the $999 12.3MP D90, the first DSLR with HD video recording. Canon quickly followed with the $2,699 21.1MP EOS 5D Mark II, which captured 1080p video instead of the 720p of arch rival Nikon. But close to $3,000 is pretty steep for a camera in the midst of a recession, so the 5D didn’t dampen the appeal of the D90. With the new EOS Rebel T1i, Canon is aiming straight for cash-strapped photographers and Nikon’s jugular with a 15.1-megapixel DSLR that records 1080p movies for hundreds less than a D90 kit with lens – all in the space of six months. Who says Moore’s Law doesn’t affect everything with a chip inside? Now, is the new T1i the killer DSLR it appears to be? We put it through its paces to find out. Pros: High-quality 15.1MP stills, Takes full HD videos, Excellent 3-inch LCD, Noise under control up to ISO 800, Live View mode works well Cons: Shooting in-focus videos takes work, Boring design, Only shoots 20 fps at full HD, not 30, Not as rugged as more expensive DSLRs http://readersinfo.com/_dl/Canon_EOSRebelT1i.pdf http://www.amazon.com/Canon-T1i-Digital-18-55mm-3-5-5-6/dp/B001XURPQS $899.99
1080p HD Panasonic’s Lumix DMC-G1 is a highly capable and thoroughly enjoyable camera to use. The 100% Live View system with flexible screen and detailed viewfinder are a joy to compose with, the controls and handling quick and easy, the image quality comparable to the best of the current budget DSLRs, while the low size and weight ensure it never becomes a burden. And while the choice of body colours and Intelligent Auto mode suggest beginners as a target market, enthusiasts are also well-catered for with features like seven-frame bracketing which are not normally offered until mid-range or semi-pro DSLRs. There’s certainly a lot to like here, but equally a few key downsides. Like all new standards, there’s a limited lens selection at launch and the ability to mount existing Four Thirds lenses via an adapter of little consolation when most suffer from AF restrictions. For all that’s great about the G1’s Live View Finder, there’s counter-arguments of a noisy and jerky image under very low light. The 100% Live View experience inevitably has an impact on battery consumption, and the lack of a movie mode an annoying omission given the buzz around the capability and a future Lumix G model already having the capability. So we wouldn’t recommend the Lumix G1 to anyone who’s really into low light shooting, requires a wide lens selection from day-one, or of course needs video recording capabilities. But these caveats only eliminate a relatively small number of photographers. Everyone else will find a camera that combines the size and ease of a typical super-zoom with the quality and (potential) optical flexibility of a traditional DSLR; the two kit lenses are also pretty respectable. As such even with a forthcoming model bringing video to the equation, we can Highly Recommend the Lumix G1 and look forward to seeing how Micro Four Thirds develops. http://readersinfo.com/_dl/Panasonic DMC-G1.pdf http://www.imaging-resource.com/PRODS/DMCG1/DMCG1A.HTM http://www.cameralabs.com/reviews/Panasonic_Lumix_DMC_G1/verdict.shtml $700
1080p HD 21.1-megapixel 'compact' full frame digital SLR with ISO range of 50-25,600 features full 1080p HD movie recording, live view, 3.0" 920,000 (VGA) dot LCD, DIGIC IV processor, increased battery capacity and sensor dust reduction. http://readersinfo.com/_dl/CanonEOS5DMarkII.pdf http://www.vistek.ca/search/canon%205d.aspx $2900
1080p HD Canon PowerShot SX1 IS popular superzoom range of cameras began with the release of the PowerShot S1 IS back in 2004, and has been incrementally upgraded each year with more features and more pixels, with the last update being the PowerShot S5 IS announced in May of 2007. In September of 2008 Canon announced dual successors to the S5 IS. The cheaper of the two models is the Powershot SX10 IS, which features a 10 MP CCD sensor behind a 20X image stabilized lens, with the more expensive camera - the SX1 IS - adding RAW mode, a CMOS sensor, faster continuous shooting speed, and HD 1080p video recording. Pros: Macro, Super Macro, HD video. Cons: Image Quality isn't up to par but it is a Point & Shoot. I guess I'm expecting too much from it. I have a Canon 5D and the images from that are outstanding but it also a DSLR. http://readersinfo.com/_dl/canon_PowerShot_SX1IS.pdf http://www.dpreview.com/reviews/CanonSX1IS/ $497
