fix your teeth! xD
I want! … No, I need!
is there a sharpen option in the camera itself ?
@natterz25 yes, this camera is alot better than Nikon D5000.
@DennisEatsFood
oh yeah that one is nice but most people i know use the canon 5d for video it really bugs me.
I have the same question as natterz25 – Would someone please answer?
is this camera better than the Nikon D5000 ?
does this have any art filters?
ok, i know its the UK, but EOS is pronounced E.O.S like the acronym, not the goddes eeoss. how youre saying it!
@limitedresources if you’re going to use the camera mainly for shooting videos you would be better off buying a video camera.. i’ve heard the canon vixia hf200 is a nice video camera, and it costs a little less than the t1i too
Thank you for your review! Can you please tell me does the sensor in Canon EOS 550D lack flooring coating for the anti dust protection like Canon EOS 500D?
Thank you for the information provided!
If you’re looking to buy a dslr, then please check out the Samsung NX10. SAMSUNG NX10!!!!!
is it possible to control the focus while shooting video with the rebel t1i/500d or do i need to get a new lens?
Hi guys, I want to shoot short films and I was wondering if this camera would be up to par? Not just docus but films with narratives.
@timbotones24794 Rebel T1i is the US name, EOS 500D is the UK/European name. Same camera.
What does ‘Rebel T1i’ mean, and what’s the difference between the Canon EOS 500D Rebel T1i and the Canon EOS 500D?
i would rather spend 100$ more and get myself the t2i
I heard that the manual focus on the T1I is very loud and the focusing is bad. Is it that horrible?
You can zoom but as your lens changes, your f stop changes. It can make your image darker or brighter while zooming. I don’t recommend using it the zoom on video mode. But great camera otherwise!
@CausesSideEffects is this your first dslr?
@meer8 very cool.. thx a lot on helping me there.. i think i’m gonna save a little more and spend it on the 500d or 550d..
@CausesSideEffects Hey man, the difference is this:
500D has higher ISO
500D has HD video @ 720p and 1080p, 450D doesn’t have video recording
500D is a little quicker as far a continuous shooting
500D has the new Digic 4 Image Processor
500D has like 15.1 megapixels and 450D has a little more the 12, like 12.3
I made the same decision and I went with the T1i because I am planning on making a career of photography.
I have one it’s the best
Would you recommend the Canon EOS 500d over the Nikon d5000, disregarding the price? Great review
oooohh i want one.. but i have to save some money first.. btw. does anyone know if the 450d is a lot worse then the 500d cos it is a lot cheaper.. or in other words what are the main differences??
