Which Canon digital camera is the best model?

by familymwr

Assuming Canon is a good brand to buy. Which is the best of them, and why if you know the why/differences between the Canon models. Thanks.
I like the silver ones, like the link on amazon for the black old fashioned looking model, I wouldn’t want that one so I guess it has to look good too?

Answer by D’Artagnan
Well, that depends on your needs, if you want something small and just point and shoot, then a powershot series would be the one, if you have enough money the s80 is a great camera, beyond point and shoot and it is small. But if you wanto to go cheap then http://www.amazon.com/Canon-PowerShot-A590IS-Digital-Stabilized/dp/B0011ZCDKS/ref=sr_1_11?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1212541457&sr=1-11 is a nice option.
If you are ready for something a little bit large this camera is excellent, the only thing that i don’t like is that it doesn’t have a look-through-hole, so you have to look always the pictures that you are going to take on the LCD screen and when you have low batteries is not a good options.http://www.amazon.com/Canon-PowerShot-SX100IS-Digital-Stabilized/dp/B000V1VG4W/ref=sr_1_18?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1212541457&sr=1-18

Finally the camera that I am going to buy is a bit larger and it is almost pro. it is the canon s5 IS, great camera with nice features, http://www.amazon.com/Canon-PowerShot-S5-Digital-Stabilized/dp/B000Q3043Y/ref=sr_1_14?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1212541457&sr=1-14
it has many options that you can play with.

Try to get some video reviews in youtube, there you can have a better idea of this cameras.

Answer by Greg
i have the canon powershot sd1000, its pretty great
its in a shape of pack of cards and is ultra small

but canon came out with a newer, similar style – powershot sd1100
now 8.0mp, image stablization, and cool colors

Answer by David M
Well the best is the Canon 1DS MKIII $ 8,000.00 body only.

For entry level SLR’s the Rebel XTi or XSi $ 600-$ 900

For point and shoot cameras I would look at the S series or the G series.

I am buying a new digital camera for the holidays and hoping to find great camera for great deal. These are the 3 I have narrowed it down to. I find the Nikon has nice layout, easy to use. The Canon has cool color swap feature- (i think) and the samsung 2 screens is neat. Not sure which is best to buy?

Answer by ArC
Personally I would recommend Canon SD1200is

Old FujiFilm Digital Camera MX-2700


Image by Dave Knight
My old Fujifilm digital camera 2.3 megapixel with no zoom. It has now replaced with a new Canon A610!

I currently have a Canon Powershot SD550 (fantastic camera), but it’s getting a little old. What is another good Canon digital camera that is similar to the SD550 and easy to use? Thanks!

Answer by VINTAGE MUSIC
Don’t know as usual in Yahoo Answers what you’re spending. My first choice would be the Canon SD780 IS. Very good for low light in that you can raise the ISO setting more than most and still get a decent photo. The SD1200 IS is fine and so is the Canon A1000 IS. All 3 have very good image quality.

Go with a subcompact digital camera with 7 megapixels, 3X optical zoom, 2.5″ LCD [238,000 pixels] and a regular viewfinder. Comes with a rechargeable lithium battery [which produces around 120 pictures via the LCD or 240 pictures via the viewfinder] and charger. Extra third-party lithium batteries sell for around $ 7.00. Stores 665 ulta-fine images on a 2-gig SD memory card and sells for $ 150.00 [without CA tax] thru Wednesday, December 12 at samys.com. It’s the Canon PowerShot SD1000 and they are selling very fast.

I want a digital camera that takes photograhy-studio quality pictures, one that takes pictures of kids in motion, one that does black and white. What’s the best camera I can buy for $ 600 and under?

Answer by KANE
Get a Daiko or w/e it’s called.

Answer by TomTom
All of the major brands are good. Choose a brand that appeals to you. Then you have to think about getting a spare battery, what size memory card, if you want an extended warranty, how much you can afford, what size zoom, if you want manual controls, the size of the camera, finding a reliable place to purchase it, and the list goes on and on and on…….

The first thing to realize is that almost any digital camera will take good pictures. If more people would read the manual more than once, they would be able to take better pictures. Usually, the person assumes it is the camera when it could be them not knowing exactly what to do. Just give yourself more photographic knowledge by doing more reading on the internet.

I really believe buying a camera is an individual choice.
The person needs to read alot of reviews on cameras so they can decide on the features that they really want and need.
Go to the store and hold them so you can see if they feel comfortable in your hands. If possible, take some pictures in the store to check the quality of the pictures.
I can only give a suggestion of what to look for in a new digital camera.
Good Luck

Answer by fhotoace
Time for you to take a class in photography.

Your question shows you do not yet have the skills to take studio quality photos … It is not the camera, but the photographer that makes the image.

For under $ 600 you may find a camera that will do what you want … a used DSLR, but you will still have to buy a lens.

Answer by jos3ph_nh
I would only go for Canon, Sony, or Nikon. You can get a good sony camera for $ 499 or the top-of-the-line Canon 10Megapixels for $ 399. Im not sure with Nikon but you can check it out at Amazon.com , Newegg.com or Bestbuy.com

Has anybody used the Best Buy Reward Zone codes for the Coldplay pre-sale?

by Wootang01

The pre-sale for Coldplay is this Thursday (for Chicago). Has anyone had any luck getting tickets by using the Reward Zone code? If so, how were the seats?

Answer by aerorocker1
nope

Give your answer to this question below!

i just got the reward zone card but im confused, do ineed to make an account online to activate it or something or do i just buy stuff in the store and give the card to them if they ask for.

Answer by My Take on It
I think that is the type of card that, when you go and purchase things at Best Buy, you give them the card when you go to pay and they swipe it and you get some sort of points that add up to some sort of reward over time.

Answer by Madam Maneater
In order for your account to be activated, you have to set up an account online at http://myrz.com/activate. Once you activate it, at the bottom of your receipt you will have a code that says “Customer Pin”, you need to add that pin online where it says “Report Missing Purchases” because it will not count because your account was not activated. Once you do that, just scan your card or give your phone number everytime you come to Best Buy and you’ll accumulate a point for each dollar. Hope that helps!

Answer by Allan
Best Buy Reward Zone is a program that literally pays you to shop at Best Buy. Just sign up for the program and make purchases at Best Buy. Before you know it, you’ll see actually money coming in your mail. Okay, it’s not dollar bills coming in the mail, but I get things like $ 5.00 OFF any purchase.

Do they make an aftermarket controller for the Canon HD XH A1 the does color correction and shading?

by airgap

I’m trying to find a controller for my Canon HD XH A1 video camera that can adjust the Iris, pedestal and color that’s not on the camera. I want to have an operator using the camera while I sit and control the camera from a different location.

Answer by Paul R
You can get cameras that are controlled via triax cable and remote CCU units, but they tend to be professional models, where you can control shutter, WB and IRIS but also v & h scan, colour painting and gamma remotely.

The XHA1 is not that class of camera. One of the XLH1 cameras has SDI in out and TC in out, but no triax facility. If you want remote engineering then you need a broadcast studio camera.

Q&A: Should i buy Olympus Ultra Zoom Digital Cameras, rather than Canon ones?

Guys who bought Olympus Ultra Zoom Digital Cameras.
Are You Satisfied?

Answer by bad day
I dont know if this will help you. I have the same situation as yours few weeks ago regarding which brand of camera to buy (DSLR category). I made a lot of research reading different camera’s features and reading/watching videos of commentaries/reviews by camera experts and amateurs alike at youtube.com (just type in camera’s brand and model and click search). Way back then, I was weighing between models made by Canon, Nikon and Olympus. I ended up buying a Canon DSLR camera, the EOS 40D kit and I have no regret buying it whatsoever. I think you are doing the right thing asking for recommendations before actually buying a camera. I did the same thing. If I did not buy the Canon brand, I would settle on buying a comparable model from Nikon, and lastly, Olympus. I am just new to DSLR photography and definitely not an expert, so I am just giving you my humble and honest opinion which you could probably apply to your situation. Hope this helps.
