  • Cannot adjust settings for exposure or ISO in movie mode.

  • Abstract:  Efterföljaren till Canon EOS 450D har utrustats med ett filmläge (saknades i 450D), en 3-tumsskärm med 920 000 punkter (450D erbjöd blott 230 000) och en sensor med högre upplösning (15,1 megapixlar istället för 12,4). I princip har den nya kameran ...

  • Abstract:  Den kraftiga gummiklädseln får kameran att kännas mer rejäl än den är. Filmfunktionen må vara enkel men den räcker och ger fin kvalitet på familjefilmerna. Priset på 10 900 kr med paketoptik känns i svettigaste laget...

  • Canon EOS 500D er så absolutt et godt kamera, men det kan man si om nær sagt alle speilreflekser på markedet i dag, med få unntak, om noen. Det er bedre på noen punkter enn andre, og byr på få overraskelser. Og der ligge...

  • Canon EOS 500D kombinerer meget høy bildekvalitet med høy videokvalitet. Med stereolyd og autofokus på videoopptak ville EOS 500D vært komplett. Men kameraet har ikke engang mikrofoninngang. Videokvaliteten ligger nesten i samme klasse...

  • Med EOS 500D viderefører Canon suksesshistorien med rimelige EOS speilreflekser. Helt siden starten for snart seks år siden, med modellen EOS 300D, har det vært solgt tusener av kameraer i "hundreserien". EOS 500D er den nyeste modellen i s...

  • Canon EOS 500D tar enormt gode billeder og det uden at rode igennem alverdens indstillinger. Den fornemme 3,0” LCD skærm med 920.000 punkters opløsning gør det meget sjovere at gennemse billeder og foretage simpel redigering direkte p...
