Digital Cameras SLR : Canon EOS 20D 8.2MP Digital SLR Camera (Body Only) Reviews
| 340 of 348 people found the following review helpful  A good upgrade from the Digital Rebel, By Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Canon EOS 20D 8.2MP Digital SLR Camera (Body Only) (Electronics) I purchased the 20D as an upgrade from my Digital Rebel. The cost was certainly worth it.This camera has many, many advantages to the Rebel (as I'm sure other reviewers will point out), but I thought three were worthy of mention: ISO 1600 and 3200 have very, very low noise. This means that I am now able to get low-light shots that I never could before. For example, I often take pictures of crowded streets at night. Before, I needed to use a flash or else my shots would be blurred by camera shake and the motion of people walking. Now (with the help of a f1.8 lens) I can set the camera at ISO3200 and have the shutter speed be fast enough that I can get clear images. In fact, when I use the Black & White mode, the picture is virtually noise-free. Rapid-Fire burst mode. When the "multi-shot" function is on, this camera fires like a machine gun. It also writes the images to the memory card much faster than the Rebel ever did. I shot a series of 25 shots in...

I always favored my RebelG because it did what it was supposed to do very well, every time, and predictably. I also have some medium format cameras that are just fun cameras, such a twin-lens Rollei on 220 format.For the past two years, I've owned and used a Digital Rebel with the hand grip, and loved that camera, and the pictures it makes. Now, I feel like I was missing out on something that whole time because the 20D is all those cameras and a banana split to boot. I pulled the camera from the box and attached a 28-135 IS, and have been snapping away ever since. The camera feels good in the hand and is easy to handle. The new control styles will take Rebel users a while to accomodate as things are moved around a little on you, but the new control system is well thought out and intuitive on its own. Setting options on the fly is a breeze, and...

The 10D takes great pictures so why bother upgrading right? Well, now that I have messed around with the 20D a bit it was clearly the right choice... although not totally perfect.The useful improvements for me have been 1. Faster time from turning on the camera to taking a picture. It's virtually instantaneous. The 10D took a few seconds to get going. 2. Faster writing to the CF card. This feature is nice when you are in a hurry to take several shots and then get the pics to your computer. 3. Built-in black and white mode that allows for photo filters to be digitally applied in camera with pretty darn good results. Although I prefer to apply filters in Photoshop. 4. The taller pop-up flash works better with my 17-40mm canon lens. The 10D would leave a half circle blackout between 17-24mm due to the top of the lens blocking the flash. The taller pop-up flash shoots right over it. 5. Super low noise at ISO400 and ISO800... Read more |
