Brilliant camera.......2007-06-05

My only regret is that I have not had this camera for my whole life. There may be a reason why a professional might need a 5D or what not, but for the rest of us, this camera does it all with ease, elegance and style. With a good lens, is it awesome. I snapped a small baby allegator I could hardly see from 50 feet away, and when I blew the image up on the computer you could see every detail, including his pupil and the glint in his eye. This camera is a lot of fun.

This camera is perfect for my needs. Any more than 8 megapixels makes for file size that chew up my computer's hard drive capacity too quickly. The options and controls give me all the flexibility I could desire in taking pictures. The 5 frames per second exposure rate is great for Little League picture taking, capturing all the action needed. The 1.6 focal length multiplier is also great for my needs, making all of my lenses effectively 60% longer (I don't need wide angle shots often, and am content with panoramas when needed). The low noise, high ISO capabilities have been fantastic to date, and the high shutter speed capability has allowed me to take some great low depth of field exposures on bright days with an f2.8 lens. Highly recommended.

Excellent camera, humbling experience.......2007-03-23

I have been a photo hobbiest for several years. I decided to get serious and began selling some of my work. I got such great review and have sold several prints. This prompted me to take an online photo class and buy the Canon 30D. The camera has every mode that a point and shoot camera has but, if you are serious about photography this camera provides you more options that you could ever ask for. I quickly relized that I could not cheat with the camera. I really had to know what I was doing if I was going to us the manual mode. Every day I learn something more and am so excited. I have to say that I did not even read the manual. The camera is very well laid out and if you are at all experienced with the Canon point and shoot cameras all of the controls will be familiar. I considered the new sony alpha, the new nikon, canon rebel and the olympus. Out of all the camera options the 30d just melted into my hand. THIS CAMERA IS COMFORTABLE! The grip and size of the camera is designed for long hours of use. It is a little on the heavy side compared to a lot of other cameras, but I totally forgot about the weight after one day of shooting. The 30D lives up to the Canon name and of all the camera options under $2500.00 this is the best.

Excellent Product!.......2007-03-20

Ah! Finally, the pleasure of using an SLR camera without the cost of processing film. I have always used Canon SLR's in the past from the all manual old one where I learnt to shoot, to the new Elan 7 I now own. I love the work and feel of the 30D. Feels exactly like my Elan 7 and shoots fabulously well. I love the capacity to change ISO. The pictures are brilliantly clear and fantastic resolution. You guys who are serious amateurs and are feeling the pinch of the film processing and printing and throwing away those extra bad pictures and storing boxes of film, close your eyes and jump feet first into the 30D. You will love it. Of course, I am now taking a lot more pictures, which also means I am less careful about compositions. But some of those bad compositions have turned out to be unusually good and I have learned to see things for a perspective I never had the luxury of trying out before. Go out with your 30D rain or shine and have a great day of seeing through the lens of a superior camera.

much more improvement than 20D.......2007-03-12

I am not a pro but do spend much time for taking pictures. Gave it 5 stars because of its much better performance than 20D. Yes, it should be since it is an upgrade version of 20D. I like shooting animal and people in the motion, and this one is much faster than 20D. Never used 5D but it seems like 30D has faster shot. In terms of picture quality, even though 20D and 30D both are 8 million pixel but still the image quality is much better by 30D, especially in weak lighting condition.

The only thing I have noticed that 30D is not as good as 20D is the color of LCD of 30D is a little bit more yellow tone(the true picture is not), which is more precise on 20D.

Considering its price and performance, I will gave it 5 stars since it has met all my needs at current stage.
