Canon Review

Canon Review

By Anne Ahira

Canon is a company that is probably the most well known for their optical products.

Since 1934, Canon has been in the business of producing business and consumer level imaging products.

These products include cameras, printers, copiers, and various components such as ink and lenses.

Canon applied for 2000 patents last year alone and regularly places in the top five for US patent applications each year.

No Canon review would be complete without looking at some of their impressive digital cameras. Canon makes two basic models, the point and shoot variety and the single lens reflex, SLR camera. Here we will look at what Canon has to offer in both cases.

Canon Power Shot

One of Canon’s most popular point and shoot cameras is the power shot. There have been several generations of this little digital camera. If you are looking for a simple point and shoot camera that will give you truly impressive prints you may be interested in this Canon review.

Canon PowerShot SD1200IS Features

• 10.0-megapixel resolution
• Prints up to 13 x 19 inches
• 3x optical zoom
• 2.5-inch LCD screen
• DIGIC 4 Image Processor
• Evolved Face Detection Technology
• Smart AUTO
• Compatible with SD/SDHC, MMC/MMC Plus/HC MMC
• $149 Amazon

When reading Canon reviews for this particular product you will notice most people who have used this camera will tell you this camera takes excellent pictures.

With 10 mega pixels, this camera will allow you to take images that can be printed up to 13x 9! Even professional photographers are finding that this simple camera has a lot to offer casual and professionals alike.

Canon Rebel

On the other end of the spectrum are the SLR digital cameras. While anyone can use these types of cameras, generally they require a bit more skill than the point and shoot variety. This is a Canon review of the Rebel 12.2 mega pixel camera.

Features

• 12.2-megapixel – captures enough detail for poster-size
• Large 3.0-inch LCD display
• Includes Canon’s EF-S 18-55mm, f3.5-5.6 IS zoom lens
• DIGIC III image processor
• Improved Autofocus and framing rate
• EOS Integrated Cleaning system
• Dust Delete
• Data Detection ( included software)
• SD/SDHC memory cards
• $500-$700 range on Amazon

Though this camera is a bit more expensive than many point and shoot digital cameras, do not think the Rebel XSi is a complicated piece of equipment.

This is one of those cameras that offer professional aspects in simple to use device. Couple this wonderful camera with a stabilization lens and you will have near professional images!

A complete Canon review is nearly impossible in a short amount of time. The company has been in business for many years and have produced more than a few fantastic products and probably a few that leave something to be desired.

The bottom line however is this is a company with a lot of experience in the optical field and if you are looking for a new digital camera, SLR camera, picture printer, copier or lenses Canon is a good place to start!

Après le Plié: Music for Ballet Class...	Customer Review: I enjoy all of the songs (and there are many) on this c.d. It's designed for practice ballet exercises. However, I think if you like the songs it could be pleasant for listening... It's helpful to "warm up" the joints as a ballet inspiration. The... Read More	$27.98 (1)
