Camera 500D – Canon Eos 500D Rebel T1I
Since the early days of digital photography, I use mainly include electronic devices. Although the picture quality in the initial period as compared to analog photography was pretty gruesome, so the direct availability, direct editing weighed, the direct print mE In most cases, the disadvantages of the lack of quality.
For the cases of truly challenging photography I took my two analog SLR to date: a Rolleiflex and a Minolta.
The Canon EOS 500D is my first digital SLR. A gift of the family on the recommendation of a photo retailer.
The initial experience.
Focus and speed: Automatic, fast, accurate in all available modes. In any case, this is true with the supplied kit lens 18-55mm IS. In focus-tracking is still accurate, and also for movement-images quickly enough.
Manual focus of course, also works. But why? Exposure and focus can be set to spot or evaluative. This is sufficient for practice.
Handling: This material is OK. The camera seems robust and stable. Only in comparison with the magnesium-Teddy from Nikon, Canon, Pentax, Olympus is seen and felt it better.
The camera is great for my hands not the optimum, but it can still work well with it. The “low” weight has advantages and disadvantages. The balance is thus more in the direction of the lens, you have to carry less. Stabilization by hand is not sufficient given. Anyone who comes from a compact camera, and has never worked with an SLR, will find the camera but as a very high quality and very large.
All buttons and controls open up after a short acclimation. The monitor is of excellent quality.
However, the monitor I use only for movies and for settings. In the pure photography mode, I shut it off permanently, because I’m used to at first, use the viewfinder of an SLR, and second is the Live View focusing a slow wit.
What exactly is this live-view? In my view, a pure marketing gimmick for people who come from digital compact cameras. The viewfinder is much faster and the first images the way you want them and how you see them.
I use the movie mode in the 720p version. Give me perfect, and the results are reproduced at 30 frames per second, also in a liquid. Unlike others, I find the video function is very nice and helpful. Here you MUST use the Monitor Incidentally, since, because the mirror pops up, the viewfinder remains black.
For the main point: How are the pictures?
I can only write something about the standard system, ie, body image stabilization with the kit lens 18-55mm.
Quite amazing in my eyes the noise performance, image stabilization and the detailing of the camera in poor, low-light conditions. I’ve shot in street lighting, clear photos of moving objects are not from the hand to ISO 1600. Super.
Here the noise behavior of the camera is really very good. Both RAW as well as in JPEG Fine. Indoors, I leave the flash off and the images are generally 1A.
Enables you to pinpoint the flash of a face against a light background, for example, add, control the camera performs a really great job: The images are not “flash is dead” but really brightened only by the relevant authorities. The rest, of course, remains.
The level of detail is extremely high, though many details are available, which differ in color. BUT: In contrast to low light conditions, the texture behavior in the sunshine in JPEG mode is improved. Regardless of whether program, aperture or aperture priority and even in purely manual recording level> the texture behavior, and also the highlight of treatment are not optimal.
Texture says: The surface treatment. Here for example is from my white shepherd dog in the snow in sunlight, sometimes even a white mass with two button issues, and I quite a lot of aperture, time, white balance, etc. I experimented. DAS may also have a good compact better. This could be, as is the dynamic behavior at high dynamic range of the recording in JPEG mode, with a firmware adjustment mE be improved.
All in all, the Camera 500D, but a very good, fast camera with excellent picture quality in almost any lighting condition, which dedicated amateur photographers offers everything they need when they do not want to shoot in the rain or the Sahara. The image quality in RAW mode is probably just as well as in the two-digit and APS-C models from Nikon and Canon.
I do not know yet whether I’ll keep it. If I had picked myself a DSLR and would not get this as a gift, it would probably become a Pentax K-7th Why?
I once had with a Rolleiflex in the Sahara. After the repair and cleaning was almost as expensive as the camera itself. A water-and dust-tight enclosure is m.E. worth a lot and for a reasonable price, offers, in conjunction with a magnesium body and video recording, only the Pentax. > How Will see. For, from this level of photography, the EOS 500D back in the digital compact class level now also even () anymore.
