Canon Rebel T1i vs. Nikon D5000 Review – ISO Comparison Part II

June 9, 2009 By Eric Reagan

The Canon Rebel T1i and Nikon D5000 are the two new consumer-level DSLRs from the leading brands in the business right now.  Over the past month or so, I’ve shot extensively, almost exclusively, with these new DSLRs.  While there are a number of features that make these cameras stand out, the one that I keep coming back to is their ability to manage noise, even at higher ISOs.

Both cameras do something new in the entry-level category by turning up the sensitivity. The Canon Rebel T1i tops out at ISO 12800, while the Nikon D5000 pushes its sensitivity one-stop lower to ISO 6400.  In my day-to-day shooting, I would have no problem shooting with either camera at ISO 3200 for snapshots that will make my wife or mom happy to have in the family photo album.  Truth be told, they probably wouldn’t notice the difference between ISO 3200 and ISO 6400 in either camera.  The Rebel T1i’s spec of ISO 12800 may be a bit much for most applications; however, in a bind, you can likely get some decent black and whites at that level.

To see how the Canon Rebel T1i and Nikon D5000 stack up against each other, as well as the Canon 5D Mark II and Nikon D700, read on. [Read more…]

Canon Rebel T1i Review at Steve’s Digicams

May 31, 2009 By Eric Reagan

Steve’s Digicams has posted a review of the Canon Rebel T1i.

Our image quality results were outstanding, however we expected this since we’ve already seen what Canon’s 15-megapixel CMOS image sensor and DIGIC 4 processor can do on the EOS 50D.

May 28, 2009 By Eric Reagan

Camera Labs has posted a review of the Canon Rebel T1i.

Ultimately the 500D / T1i is a worthy successor to the 450D / XSi, packing-in a number of valuable enhancements for little extra money.

Advanced Sound for DSLRs

May 26, 2009 By Eric Reagan

Advanced Sound for DSLR’s from Steve Weiss, Zacuto USA on Vimeo.

If there’s one huge gap in the video features of new DSLRs like the Canon Rebel T1i and Nikon D5000, it’s the sound.  Simply put, it was an after thought that seriously handicaps these cameras.  This video from the guys at Zacuto talks about how fix this problem with a little $349 solution called the Zoom H4n Handy Portable Digital Recorder.  They also give you a couple of quick and simple tips for synching your audio with your video in post-production.  Good stuff.

Canon Rebel T1i Review at The Digital Picture

May 26, 2009 By Eric Reagan

The Digital Picture has posted a review of the Canon Rebel T1i.

While not a pro model, the Canon EOS Rebel T1i / 500D’s image quality is very pro-grade. And for the price, this image quality is a bargain.

May 24, 2009 By Eric Reagan

PC Mag has posted a review of the Canon Rebel T1i.

Offering image quality and a robust feature set typically found in pricier prosumer-level D-SLRs, the Canon EOS Rebel T1i is a definite game-changer.

Canon EOS 500D Review at Cnet Asia

May 23, 2009 By Eric Reagan

Cnet Asia has posted a review of the Canon EOS 500D (aka Rebel T1i).

The EOS 500D is a very decent dSLR for first-time users and the inclusion of full HD video-recording function sweetens the deal.

Canon EOS 500D Review at Infosync

May 22, 2009 By Eric Reagan

Infosync has posted a review of the Canon EOS 500D (aka Rebel T1i).

We loved he plethora of shooting features and bountiful external controls. The menus were top notch and the 3-inch Live View LCD rocked the block, but at $900, we have to wonder if the Eos 500D is a justifiable investment.
