Canon Powershot G11 Review - The power house of the Canon compacts has been reworked and we review it here. Review by Matt Grayson Building on the high brow G series, Canon have replaced the...
As a fairly serious amateur photographer, this camera is what I have with me when I don't have my EOS 5D. I bought it mostly for stills, planning to use t only occasionally for videos, but having a...
Want some quick killer HD video then this is and camera for you. If you are looking for excellent image quality you will be disappointed. I hate shooting in auto mode but with this camera you...
Hybrids aren’t just on the highway – they’re moving to the camera aisle in a big way. One of the newest is Canon’s PowerShot SX1 IS, an expensive 10-megapixel digicam with the ability to...
Crap. Buy a Nikon, Sony or Kodak. Anything other than a Canon. Continuing from above CONS. Customer service is lousy. Why they couldn't send me an email or call me regarding the problem for the...
For all you complainers.....If you thisk this camera is heavy,go lift a dslr with a opt 300mm lens then come back and tell us how heavy this camera is! Then ask them the price! Now,You low light...
Photos: Canon PowerShot SX10 IS Though a 20x zoom lens may be yawn-inspiring in these days of 24x and 26x lenses, I think 20x is plenty, and perhaps even a bit too long given the difficulty of...
I bought this camera specifically for my fishing trip to Florida in Oct. I initially liked the camera until I took it out in my backyard, on a bright sunshiney day. Guess what, I can't see the...
First of all, I think that cnet should have given the SD960 at least one more star. I had narrowed my choices between this camera and the Sony DSC W290. But, within the customer reviews for the...
The Canon PowerShot SD960 IS is a follow-up of sorts to the very popular SD880 IS featuring the same 28mm wide-angle lens with a 4x zoom, but this model jumps to 12 megapixels from 10. It can...

This is an excellent camera and I should know. I've been through 4 different cameras all point and shoot and new, basically testing which one was worth my money. This one is by far the best. It...
I would not recommend this camera unless it was on sale for 50 bucks. I wish Canon got wise and put a decent lens in their cameras. I took this back to the store.

Excellent Lens, But Be Careful When Purchasing Filters
I love, love, love this lens. It makes a great companion to my Canon EF 50mm f1.4 USM Standard & Medium Telephoto Lens for Canon SLR Cameras and has come in handy in many situations.
This is a nice lens, relatively small, with decent resolving power (better at close distances)and a great,IMO, focal length for an 1.6 crop. What I didn't like was that it is relatively slow...
I was looking for a replacement for the 18-55 for my Canon Rebel XT and, after a long week of research, I decided that the Canon EF 24/2.8 is just the lens I need. It's not so wide, but this is...
This lens is light weight, great value for the money, No problems with this lens. Note: This is not an "L" lens and does not have the sharpness of an "L" lens. Hence, not the price of an "L" lens.
The reason I bought this lens was to use it indoors in lower light conditions. I have had this lens on my Rebel XT for about six months and it does a fairly a good job. It maybe true that the 50mm...
I picked this lens up because I needed a wider angle without spending too much cash. The overall quality of photos I take using this lens is superb, yet I do find that the autofocus is slow enough...
I bought this lens for a couple of reasons. First of all, I picked it up REALLY cheap used (and you can get it quite cheap even new). Secondly, I really wanted a standard-view lens for my Rebel XT....
Along with the well-known cheap 50mm f1.8 prime, this is another great, inexpensive lens from Canon. I used this with a Rebel XT, and have no complaints at all -- it's hard to beat the...
Canon generally makes excellent lenses, but my copy of this lens is awful! Even at f/8 with a fast shutter speed and low ISO, images are blurry when blown up to 100%. It also suffers from severe...
I bought these with the expectation that they were basically going to be as good as it gets as fare as binoculars go. I will say that they are fantastic but, unless you are a binocular aficionado...
Superb image detail, inferior carrying strap and lens caps
The binoculars have an amazing crispness and project great detail in the subjects viewed. The image stabilization function works flawlessly. I have two problems with these binoculars.First, the...
Always happy with Canon Lenses.. I am more a detailed photographer, I purchased this mainly for my husband. He enjoys taking more landscape photography. Overall, very happy!
This is one of the first two lenses I bought when I switched to a Canon SLR about five years ago. I've had plenty of opportunity to use it since then, both with film and (full frame) digital.
I wanted a 20mm prime to use for night shooting, so I thought I'd give this one a try. I chose poorly. Returned it the same day. Still on the hunt for a good prime night long exposure...
A decent lens considering Canon's wide angle heritage
I have been using Canon equipment exclusively for 30+ years. I feel that I know their products fairly well by now. IMO, Canon's wide angle lenses have ALWAYS been their Achille's heel. Many...
Just a short note... When I upgraded to a DSLR system from my old-school 35mm, I was used to a nice standard 50mm f1.8. Well, digital doesn't roll quite the same way since you convert all of your...
This is my fifth Sigma lens, and I couldn't be happier with it. Because of it's f/1.8, don't expect much depth of field when shooting wide open. Especially in close ups, that's the trade off for...
I'm amazed at how inferior this lens is. It looks good. It feels good, and I like the focus clutch mechanism. The specs are great and just what I wanted for my EOS 10D: a wide, fast, fixed focal...
What can I say? It's one of the best lenses Canon makes. I resisted buying it but now I'm so glad I did. I use it on a 40D and the focal length is fine. It's super sharp.
This lens is a great lens for Photographing groups, Weddings, a little heavy but balances well in your hand. The lens hood is included with the lens. Great sharpness, and color. No problems.
I wanted a wide angle prime lens that I could take to parties where the shooting distance is always about the same and I could get higher quality pictures than with zoom lenses. Since this lens is...
as soon as i received it, i set my camera up on a tripod and shot the same picture, first with the old canon 14mm, and then with the new. the improvement in the new lens in terms of corner to...
photography is my hobby. i do enjoy it and wanted to improve. i bought this lens to give more range to my lens. i have, the kit lens for my 30D and a 70-200 f2.8L. the telephoto was just too heavy...
This is a good lens, but it's certainly not great. Along with all other L-series lenses, it's more durable, weather resistant, doesn't rotate the front element. It has a virtually silent focusing...
This is my first L lens. I own a Canon 50 f1/8 and also a 100 f2, both fixed length lenses. My rating is not so much to say that this is a bad lens because it's not. For...
If you still debating what to get, EF 17-40mm f/4L USM is the BEST choice. Ive tested both: EF 16-35mm f/2.8L II USM and EF 17-40mm f/4L USM. The EF 17-40mm f/4L UMS performance is superb. It...
I use this lens to photograph skydivers while in freefall. It is a fast focusing, well built and reliable lens. Many of my fellow freefall photographers use the same lens I do. I highly...
This lens is razor sharp at all focal lengths and apertures and the shots you can get with the wide angle will blow you away. It's worth every penny. The downside, however, is that the extremely...
If you have a 1.6x cropped sensor, then this is really the only super wide angle lens canon makes. The crop factor makes this equivalent to a 16-35mm lens on a full sensor. The construction...
Canon EF 16-35mm f/2.8L II USM Ultra Wide Angle Zoom Lens review
I am a hobbiest with a 30D.
This is my first 'L' series lens. I stressed over getting the EF-S 10mm-22mm and the f4 versions both of which are half the price of this lens. I went...
If your not super hyper about sharpness this 16-35 F2.8L II wont be a big step up from the older "I" version. If you are a stickler for resolution, flare control, and less or no vignetting at 16mm...
UPDATE: Since posting this review, I have done further experimentation and am coming to a conclusion (no new info from Canon thus far) that (in addition to this lens's gaussian factor) this new...
It seems that fast and cheap wide zoom is still a pipe dream
I was excited about this lens when I saw all these reviews that seemed to suggest that it was the holy grail of walkaround lenses: fast, has a super-broad zoom range and is under $500. But when I...
Phenomenal. I shopped meticulously to find the perfect lens for most of what I do. This is it. The canon 17-85 has a little more reach and the image stabilizer but also too much chromatic...
I returned it to 47 St. Photo for exchange. It does not come with a case and could have been damaged in shipment. The second lens behind the front objective was loose and rattling around inside...
..great cam, but test XH G1 and XH A1 first.... this footage is filmed with Canon XL2 (with 24p) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qxw5LmAv6w4 http://girlsofthunder.com/got/
I have followed the development of HD camcorders for years and finally went from SD to HD with the purchase of the second generation Sony HDR-HC1. It is a 1080i camera which produces absolutely...
I just used this lens on a trip to the Grand Canyon. The pictures were amazing. I have used another lens similar to this one the Sigma gives a better quality picture.
I bought this lens in late 2002. (new version with new HSM is now available) I have enjoyed it emmensely. I only use it for advanced amature work. Recently the auto focus stopped working. To...
I bought this lens some years ago to replace the Sigma17- 35mm lens for my EOS 3. I knew it was a matter of time until I bought a digital. Along came the 10D and the lens became essentially a...
I ordered this lens because I wanted the widest angle without getting a cropped lens (the Canon 10-22). I have had great luck with Tamron 3rd party lenses and the price was great so I thought what...
