The editors didn't like

  • JPEGs are soft at default settings
  • Good lenses needed for best results
  • Redeye a problem
  • No way to remove it in playback mode
  • Small right hand grip not for everyone
  • LCD outdoor visibility could be better
  • Sluggish contrast detect autofocus in live view
  • Continuous shooting mode could be better
  • Very basic playback mode
  • Wireless flash control would've been nice
  • Relatively slow burst mode
  • Video controls could be easier to use
  • Some detail loss in very dark or bright conditions
  • Auto Lighting Optimizer's effect is subtle to the point of being unnoticeable
  • No rear control dial (as found on higher-end Canon bodies)
  • Entry-level ergonomics won't suit everyone (the EOS 50D and 7D just feel nicer)
  • No in-camera raw conversion option
  • Slightly soft JPEG output at default settings (but this is far from unusual)
  • Chroma noise takes a fairly big chunk out of resolution at ISO 12
  • Main dial has too much resistance
  • Is uncomfortable in use
  • No rear control dial
  • Evaluative metering tends to blow highlights
  • Often requires 1/3 to 2/3EV of negative exposure compensation
  • No dedicated AF-assist lamp (flash is used)
  • And AF-assist ad...
  • Relatively expensive for entry level camera kit
  • Light plastic feel is a turn off for some photographers
  • Autofocus doesn't work in Movie mode
  • Video recording is not as intuitive as with a dedicated camcorder. Frames-per-second capture is slower than the competition.
  • Smaller form size
  • Almost too light
  • Plasticy.
  • Lack of quick control wheel (you have to get Canon's 7D or a higher model to have one). Bothersome autofocus assist flash. Build quality not as robust as feature set.
  • AF Assist lamp not on body
  • Kit lens is weak
  • Problematic videos
  • Annoying viewfinder
  • Irritating control layout for video capture
  • Modest 3.7fps shooting and small RAW buffer
  • Screen fixed in position
  • Unlike several rivals
  • Average 9-point AF system and viewfinder
  • Compelling rivals if you don't care for 1080p movies.
  • A touch too expensive

  • Abstract:  Den har kallats en EOS 7D i miniatyr. Tre hekto lättare och hälften så dyr, men med samma höga bildkvalitet. Canon EOS 550D är ett bra val för alla som vill lägga mindre pengar på kamerahuset utan att kompromissa med slutresultatet. Kanske för att kunn...

  • Abstract:  Canons senaste digitala systemkamera i amatörklassen verkar livsfarlig på pappret, med en sensor på 18 megapixel och ett videoläge i full-HD. Rod Lawton tar reda på om den är lika imponerande i verkligheten.EOS 550D ansluter sig till Canon-serien som d...

  • Abstract:  Dette er et strøkent kamera som ikke har mange ulemper som jeg kan se bortsett ifra at det er litt lite for noen kanskje. Kameraet leverer gode og klare bilder men det kan være lurt å bruke et annet objektiv en det som følger med kameraet. Ellers er de...

  • Når vi har kommet helt hit, har du vel allerede skjønt hva vi mener om kameraet. Det er en rimelig modell, til under 6000 kroner. Det betyr at du ikke kan forvente all verden. Men Canon har gjort sine prioriteringer riktig. De har ikke spart inn på bi...

  • Meget god videomodus, god lysmåling og lav støy på høy følsomhet, lettvint å bruke, kjapp autofokus, stor og skarp skjerm ...
  • Enkelte funksjoner mangler, noe billig konstruksjon, seriefoto litt treg til actionsekvenser ...
  • Canon EOS 550D Selv om nyhetene ikke har vært veldig mange kontra EOS 500D, er de velkomne på EOS 550D. Spesielt vil vi trekke frem en forbedret lysmåler som gjør kameraet mer konsistent eksponeringsmessig, spesielt i høykontrastsituasjoner, der lyst...

  Published: 2010-07-29, review by: altomdata.dk

  • Abstract:  At sammenligne Canons nye DSLR kamera 550D med det meget populære 7D er oplagt, da der på mange måder er tale om en nedskaleret udgave af dette halvdyre entusiastkamera. Men man kan sige, at man får mange af de samme features, men et lidt langsommere k...

  • Lækkert retro-design.
  • Filmfunktionen er god uden at imponere.
  • Det nye topkamera til entusiasten er både et godt stillbilledkamera, og det i testen, der er bedst til at filme. ...

  • Abstract:  EOS-seriens storsælger er ude i en ny og forbedret udgave. Forfra ligner EOS 550D forgængeren 500D til forveksling, og set bagfra er der kun få ændringer. Det er indvendigt, at Canon har flyttet grænserne for, hvad man kan forvente i prisklassen.Smilet...

  • Jeg kan lige så godt sige det med det samme, Canon EOS 550D er et fremragende D-SLR kamera, hvad enten du er helt grøn indenfor digital spejlrefleks, og vil muntre dig med de automatiske tilstande, eller du skal opgradere fra et ældre D-SLR eller lomme...
