Canon

Advantages: Brand reputation and high-quality results

...disappointed! I chose the Canon fisheye lens mostly due to its brand reputation and the fact that most of my other photography equipment is also made by Canon. In my opinion, I paid a fair price for it and it's a superb lens which gives me professional-level results! You will not be disappointed. ... Read review

Advantages Quality is outstanding!
Disadvantages A3 paper may be taken in angled (1 in 10 chances - for me)

...After my vicious attack review on Dooyoo I think I’ll write another review. This time it’ll be based on a printer, Canon BJ I6500. Introduction ------------------------- Canon has been very successful in its attempts to diversify into many markets. The reason they have succeeded in many computing markets such as the printer, camera or calculator market is that their products are well known for their excellence in quality and meeting consumer demands. Canon would defiantly be my first choice for any products I need and they supply. Now when it comes to printers, I know from pass experience and many reviews that canon floats first position along with their top competitors such as HP in the printer’s market. The reason Canon is known to top the printer league is because when ever a canon printer is released... Read review

Advantages Typically good Canon images.
Disadvantages Poor flash and feels a bit flimsy.

...Canon along with Nikon have for years been known as the kings of camera`s but with things changing rapidly in the DSLR market Canon had to think fast. All of Canons recent releases have been at the expensive end of the market and they have been rapidly losing ground to the likes of Nikon and the new kids on the block (Sony). The release of the Canon EOS 1000D in June this year (2008)was an attempt to get back in the entry level market and whilst I think it should have the desired effect I am still not convinced they have done enough to tempt people away from the less expensive Sony option. Many people myself included thought that the new Canon would just be a fresher version of the Canon EOS 400D and the only stand out feature available on this 1000D that the 400 did not offer was a live view, so were Canon trying to pull the wool...

...I have used a lot of Camcorders over the years. The largest of them being the one I carried on my shouler to the one I carry in my pocket. Canon Cameras and Camcorders have always fascinated me. This review is not about any specific model of the camera, but Canon Camcorders in General. Canon Camcorders are simple to use and easy to learn camcorders.

...The Powershot A550 is one of the least expensive digital cameras made by Canon. It is a little more expensive than most entry level digital cameras, but worth the extra money you would pay to purchase it. The A550 is the upgrade, mid-range camera that will augment or replace Canon's popular A530 and A540 Powershot cameras, while introducing a powerful 7 megapixel camera in their place. The A550 is a great entry level digital camera whose images will make you feel like a pro. The A550 gives you fast performance along with those great images, making the Canon PowerShot A550 a truly good budget camera. The Canon PowerShot A550 lives up to its A- rating, reported by several different Internet sources. The A550's straightforward mode dial is backed up by a relatively easy to use function menu. There are more camera settings available... Read review

Advantages: 450D is the large 3" LCD screen (400D 2.5in).
Disadvantages: No Disadvantages

...The Canon EOS 450D / Rebel XSi is a powerful DSLR from the Canon and a worthy successor to the best-selling EOS 400D / XTi. A small body with a far wider range of functionality and features, without a doubt the ESO 450D will have to do more today to prove itself in an increasingly crowded market. Pick up the 450D / XSi and your first impression is one of a surprisingly light camera ¨C indeed it¡¯s noticeably lighter and thinner than its predecessor, the ESO 400D. Anyone who likes hiking and traveling will appreciate its low size and weight. The 450D features a new, 12.4 megapixel sensor. It has 12.2 million effective pixels. Further down the line, the A/D converter is capable of relaying 14 bit information to the camera's image processor or as a 14-bit RAW file. This should, in theory at least, offer smoother gradation steps... Read review
