Canon EOS T1i Review

I love photography and bought myself a Canon EOS XSi (450D) last year from amazon.fr. How I wished I had waited as Canon are on the brink of launching their brand new successor to it, the Canon EOS T1i (500D), which is out very soon (early May 2009).

The XSi is a fantastic camera for the price and really builds the bridge between amateur photographer and professional photographer well. I didn’t think they could improve on it to be honest.

But they have. Oh, how well they have.

The EOS T1i delivers so much for its price. Canon have incorporated many features found in the EOS 5d Mk II (which typically costs well over $2500) and packed it into the body of the T1i. And guess what? The dimensions are exactly the same as the XSi before it (save the weight being 5g heavier).

So what does the T1i have over the XSi?

The T1i has 15.1 mega pixels (compared to just 12.2).

More advanced DIGIC 4 processor (compared with the DIGIC III on the XSi).

The ISO range is expandable to 12,800 compared with just 1600.

Video shooting mode – you can use it as a video camera, shooting up to 12 minutes (or 4gb) of full HD video!

HDMI connection for viewing and playback on HDTV.

One really unique feature that interests me greatly is that the T1i has a great feature for beginners – the auto creative zone. When set to one of these zones, the camera will guide you as to what settings to use via the LCD. Basically, the auto creative mode is like having a teacher built in! I am tempted to trade in my old XSi and buy the T1i just for this feature alone!

Many of the other standard features of Canon cameras are still there, like live view, self cleaner sensors, dust delete and so on and storage is on SD or SDHC cards.

Summary:

I am looking forward to the release of this camera in early May and will have to talk my wife into allowing me to upgrade from my existing XSi. This really looks like a cracking camera.

It looks like Canon has again made a great leap and incorporated so many new technologies into such a small body and low price. I can’t think of what they will do next, although wi-fi transfers and printing would be good. Need a fast connection as the highest quality RAW images are going to be well in excess of 20mb.

As I said above, the XSi looked to have bridged the gap between amateur and professional, but the T1i seems to beat that by including a built in tutor! There is nothing worse than being out on the field after reading something, but when you need that info, you have forgotten. The T1i will prompt you with it’s auto creative mode. I would love my XSi to be able to do that.

Perhaps they will also incorporate a mobile phone into the camera as well! Who knows, stranger things have happened!

The Incredible Samsung LED HDTV Models

If you’re considering a television purchase, do yourself a favor and have a look at some of the many Samsung LED HDTV models currently available.

Samsung, obviously, isn’t the only manufacturer of LED HDTVs, but Samsung is leading the pack with some truly awesome products. Regardless if you’re looking for an LED DLP HDTV (projection) or an LED LCD HDTV, Samsung has many models available that will satisfy your needs.

Although there have been a few problems with LCD and DLP technology in the past (lower contrast ratios, the ‘rainbow effect’, ‘motion blur’), Samsung has addressed these, and now they’re producing HDTVs that are second to none. Not only are the Samsung LED HDTV models on the cutting edge of technology, the prices are almost too good to be true. For just a fraction of what many people paid for a high-end plasma set just a few short years ago, you can now own a Samsung LED HDTV that has (at least) an equivalent image reproduction, but is also a product that is cheaper to operate, lasts longer, and has many more features – such as incorporated Internet access, to name but one.

Obviously, one of the most popular and reputable shopping sites on the Internet is Amazon. If you take a few minutes to look what most people are buying, and the customer reviews of those products, you’ll see that the Samsung LED HDTV models are selling better than most all other similar products combined !! When you start to look at the ratings of these Samsung LED HDTV models, you’ll also see that customer satisfaction is extremely high. If I seem biased towards the Samsung televisions, it’s because I am. They rightfully deserve all of the accolades, and positive consumer reviews that they’re receiving.

Whether you find A Samsung LED DLP HDTV, or a Samsung LED LCD HDTV is better suited to your needs, I know you’ll be confident that you made a smart purchase when you decide to buy a Samsung LED HDTV.

Lastly, not to insult your intelligence, but be sure to evaluate all of the features of the televisions that you’re interested in. Some people think mainly about the size of the screen and little else. As mentioned previously, some Samsung LED HDTV models have advanced Internet features, some are extra slim, and still others, while having Samsung’s stunning audio and video capabilities, aren’t as feature-rich as some of their slightly more costly stable mates.

Regardless of which Samsung LED HDTV you purchase, you’ll have a television that is second to none in terms of quality and performance, and one that will last many years.

Consumer feedback is probably the best way to get an honest impression of the television(s) that you’re interested in. Any Samsung LED HDTV model that you choose will be a quality product, but spending just a few minutes on Amazon, will give you a wealth of information and consumer opinions on any Samsung LED HDTV available.

Generally speaking, if you’re looking for a larger screen (>50-55 inches), you may want to look at the Samsung LED DLP models. For a smaller screen size, you may find that one of the Samsung LED LCD HDTV models may be better suited to your needs.

The 52-inch 1080p Sony Bravia Xbr Kdl-52xbr4 is the Ultimate LCD Hdtv

The 52-Inch 1080p Sony Bravia XBR KDL-52XBR4 is the ultimate LCD HDTV. If you want the best picture, this LCD HDTV is the one to get. Yes, the Sony KDL-52XBR4 is more expensive than other brands, but you get what you pay for. The Sony Bravia KDL-52XBR4 is the Mercedes of LCD HDTVs.

The Motion Flow 120hz refresh rate helps smooth out sports games and action scenes that has been plaguing LCD TVs with their ghosting effect. Although it’s not a significant difference over previous models, it’s there and it’s working. Every little bit of help is welcomed. If there any blurring, it’s usually a source problem like watching low quality video.

Watching HD content on the 52-Inch Sony Bravia KDL-52XBR4 1080p LCD HDTV is simply amazing. Colors are true and stand out like no TV has ever done. Everything looks 3D and pops out like you’re looking through a window. Is this even possible without 3D glasses? Side by side with any LCD HDTV out there, the Sony Bravia KDL-52XBR4 takes the cake. The only other LCD HDTV that comes close is the Samsung LNT5271F 52? 1080p 120Hz LCD HDTV.

The Samsung does have better blacks, but you can’t even tell. Samsung’s screen is a little reflective to give the picture a look of higher contrast, but the reflection can be annoying especially in a well lit room. The screen on the Sony Bravia KDL-52XBR4 1080p LCD HDTV has no glare at all and works well in a bright room. The backlight adjusts itself accordingly when in bright or dark rooms. The screen does not distract at all and will constantly amaze your family and friends with its awesome picture.

Once you receive the Sony Bravia KDL-52XBR4 1080p LCD HDTV, you should turn off the “vivid” setting and switch to something more comfortable to the eyes especially if you’re watching in standard definition. SD quality video will look bad if you don’t. You should also change the screen from “full” to “wide full” when watching SD to give SD content the best display possible. This will fill up the screen instead of having some blank areas on the left and right of the TV.

DVD’s also look good and sometimes even blu-ray-ish. That’s how good this TV is. The best way to watch movies of course is with a Blu-Ray movie. You can’t buy an HDTV like this and not get a Blu-Ray player or a Playstation 3 (comes with Blu-Ray). If your budget doesn’t allow you to get one yet, DVD is still outstanding with this TV, but you should get Blu-Ray eventually.

If you’re not planning to get a home theater sound system just yet, the built-in sound of the Sony Bravia KDL-52XBR4 1080p LCD HDTV is good enough. It’s better than most LCD TVs out there.

To go along with the beautiful picture that the Sony Bravia KDL-52XBR4 1080p LCD HDTV is capable of producing, the unit itself is beautiful with the floating glass frame. You can also change the bezel to a color that matches your home more if you want to. If you like the piano black finish of the V3000 or XBR3, you can buy the XBR5 model which exactly the same set as the XBR4 except for the piano black finish.

If you want the best looking set out there and price doesn’t matter, the Sony Bravia KDL-52XBR4 1080p LCD HDTV is the one to buy. You won’t regret it because this is as good as it gets for now. Amazon has the best prices around and if they lower the price in 30 days after your purchase, you can contact them and they’ll refund the difference. The Sony Bravia KDL-52XBR4 1080p LCD HDTV is pricey, but that’s because the quality is incomparable.
