Dear list,
Got d100's Cant wait for nikon thinking of going canon anyone using one and
what are they like please, are you happy.
Hi,
Yep, I've been using a 20D for a couple of months & am very happy with it (I also have a Canon D60). I shoot a variety of advertising/design/corporate work & have shot a good mixture of types of work with the new camera - all good news as far as focus, operation & quality of image goes. I don't like the new software as far as tethered shooting goes - I will probably start using the Phase One S/W when it supports the 20D.
It depends on what you're looking for in a camera over what your D100's can do, as to whether it'd be worth changing cameras. I really needed to have 2 DSLR bodies - the image processing & focus speed improvements are great & the extra pixels are reassuring....but it's not a huge jump from a 6mgpxl camera.
There are some nice features on the camera (I've been enjoying shooting in the b&w mode, with a RAW file as a back-up - nice to look at a folder of mono, or duotone images for a change - it seems to work well).
If it's out & out resolution you're looking for, then obviously the new 1Ds MkII is the way to go, but for a relatively cheap, lightweight, & feature-rich camera with great image quality & dynamic range, the 20D is it.
Whoah, didn't mean to sound like an advertisement!!
