  • Définition très élevée, mode de prise de vue depuis l’écran, écran 3 pouces, utilisation de carte mémoire SD, bonne gestion du bruit avec le processeur DIGIC III.
  • Fintion plastique, problème de prise en main, absence de seconde molette, limité à 1600 ISO.
  • Le boitier Canon 450D reprend nombre de caractéristiques du modèle plus haut de gamme 40D pour le grand public.

  • Traitement des images sur 14 bits, Nouvel objectif stabilisé optiquement
  • Incompatible avec les batteries et grips des générations précédentes, Qualité de fabrication du boîtier en deçà de la concurrence
  • Avec son nouveau reflex grand public, Canon a joué la carte de la « force tranquille ». Certains argueront même que, leader dun marché, Canon a tendance à ne pas prendre trop de risques. Les changements de cette nouvelle mouture dappareils dentrée d...

  • Compatta ma molto maneggevole con comandi ben disposti, autofocus preciso, qualità immagini, schermo grande con funzione Live View, accurato sistema di pulizia, controllo remoto da computer.
  • Non c’è la rotellina aggiuntiva per la regolazione dei parametri, impostazione Iso non molto agevole.

  • tolle Bildqualität, bedienungsfreundlich, solide Verarbeitung, sehr schnell
  • Spotmessung zu ausladend, nur maximal ISO 1600, Bildstabilisator im Objektiv
  • Obwohl die Canon EOS 450D Spiegelreflexkamera etwas mehr kostet als vergleichbare Geräte der Klasse (zum Beispiel Sony Alpha DSLR-A200), ist sie jeden Euro wert. Die Empfehlung beruht vor allem auf der tollen Bildqualität: Bis auf die niedrige Lichtem...
