Canon EOS 20D

The Canon 20D is awesome. No doubt about it. It was my first step into DSLR territory after years with film slrs and I can't believe I didnt make the change sooner. Firstly, if you familiar with SLR's and especially canon's (as i was) you'll have no problem picking this camera and getting to grips with it within half an hour. Ok so some of the more technical things this camera allows you to do, like the Auto WB Bracketing etc may take you a little while longer to master but it really depends on your knowledge to date and not the camera. The Canon 20D will definately not hold you back. Its creative possibilties are endless. For those of you still ...  Read the complete review

I bought this camera a couple of years ago upgrading from a Canon 300d. The first thing I can say about this camera is its brilliant. There are so many features its hard to list them all but you wont fail to be impressed with what Canon have packed into this baby. The camera has a robust black metal body with the shutter button on the top right hand side of the camera. The main function buttons are on the rear of the camera which allows you to change the aperture and speed. On the top right hand side are the controls you to see what is being selected in a small LCD window. Most of these settings appear in the viewfinder when you look through.

Exelent camera. It's my 3rd Canon camera. First digital (from Canon range). Canon products were always good, but this camera is just what person serious about photography needs, it's really professional camera. The camera body gives you nice filing of well balanced device with ergonomics in mind. The camera buttons and dials were very well placed. At the begining I had small problem with shutter button, it's been placed slightly further than in Canon SLR cameras. But after several minutes I got use to it. Before even reading the manual I was able to identify purpose of most of the buttons and dials. I's really intuitive layout. There are two ...  Read the complete review

I bought this camera back in 2003 when it was first released. It has served me well over the last 6 years- I still use it as a backup camera just in case I have any problems. Don't be fooled by thinking that it "only" has a 8.2 sensor in it, this produces pictures big enough to print to A2!. The build quality of this camera is amazing, it feels like its not going to break in 20 years of use- couple that with the average life of the shutter being 100,000- means that even 2nd hand this camera will last and last. It takes both te EF and EF-S lenses- which means there is a huge choice for all. Be aware that this camera uses the crop sensor, so any lens will have ...  Read the complete review

Canon EOS 20D was the first digital that i have owned. First impressions of the EOS 20D are good it as Canon's new DIGIC II imaging processor, a new Hi-Precision 9-point AF system, an impressive 5fps shooting speed, and a fast start-up time of 0.2 secs. Canon have developed an 8.2 megapixel sensor that delivers images up to 3,504 x 2,336 pixels in size, in the same 3:2 aspect ratio as conventional 35mm film. The 20d looks like and feels just like the 10D which it replaces. This camer is well made the top, front and rear covers of the 20D's body are constructed from magnesium alloy which helps give it a solid, more 'professional' feel. The DIGIC II gives the ...  Read the complete review
