When Canon launched the original Digital Rebel in 2003 the $1000 price point for a digital SLR was ground breaking. In the 3 generations since the original, Canon has added more and more features to their entry DSLR and the price has actually dropped. The current XSi(450D) is $799 for the body or $899 including the new Image Stabilized 18-55mm lens.A Closer LookCanon Press AnnouncementOu... |

The Nikon D300 is currently the darling of the DSLR market. Nikon has built the D300 on a Magnesium frame with weather sealing that makes it the top crop-sensor model, or DX format in Nikon lingo, in their current lineup. It is really a Pro model, but with pricing at the upper end of the prosumer market. This formula has worked well for Nikon. The D300 is selling very, very wel... |

Vacation is a time to get away from it
all - unless you're a geek or a photo hobbyist. For us vacation is when you actually
have time to play a bit with the technology that is an important part of your life.
Our first thought was to vacation with the Nikon D300, but it's such a sought after
camera around the world there was concern it might be a magnet for theft. Since
the destination was t... |

Our Digital Sensor Part 1 and Digital Sensor: Part
2 articles got us thinking again about the state of the Foveon
sensor. The Foveon hadn't been in our hands since our early fascination with the
first Foveon camera, the Sigma SD9. As there are some very serious devotees of the
Sigma Foveon and even an active Sigma DSLR discussion forum at DPReview, our curiosity
was burning on whether the Fov... |

taking a closer look at how the digital sensor evolved we could better
understand how APS-C Digital SLR sensors got started and grew to dominate the
current DSLR landscape. This led to a discussion... |

Olympus has announced an upgrade to the E-510, which has been their biggest seller in the consumer DSLR space. Called the E-520, the new model adds processing improvements, more effective in-body Image Stabilization that works with any lens, and what Olympus describes as on-LCD AutoFocus combined with Face Detection. These appear to be the same updates that recently made their way to the smaller E... |

Canon started the whole consumer Digital SLR market in the Fall of 2003 when it surprised the world with the announcement of the original $899 Digital Rebel (EOS 300D) or $999 for the kit with a 18-55mm lens. That was the first DSLR to crack the $1000 barrier and it sold by the truckload when it started shipping in late 2003. This 6MP masterpiece of cheap silver-painted plastic and a pentamirror i... |

A few years ago, all digital cameras were "point and shoot" and they were very expensive compared to film cameras. Digital prices dropped rather quickly as digital sensor resolution continued to increase. Soon enough digital "point-and-shoot" cameras were available at every price point from a basic snapshot to the more serious models geared at the prosumer market.
At the dawn of the consumer digi... |

UPDATED: New full-size image downloads are included for the Sony A350, Canon 5D and Pentax K20D at a constant f4.0 at all ISO settings. Crops on page 6 are now actual pixels with no size reduction and were extracted from the updated images.
When Sony secured victory for Blu-ray a couple of months ago, it was difficult not to reflect on the Betamax vs. VHS battle that Sony lost many years ago. Tho... |

As discussed in the Launch Announcement just before PMA, the Pentax K20D is now surprisingly the highest resolution Digital SLR in its class of prosumer DSLRs. That statement doesn't really convey the real comparison since the only current camera with higher resolution than the 14.6 MP (megapixel) K20D is the $8000 Canon 1Ds III with a full-frame 21.1 MP image.
The Pentax K20D has the highe... |

Every time a mention of the Olympus 4/3 camera system is made in articles we get comments that there is no promised size and weight savings with the 4/3 line. That ignores the E-410, which is currently the smallest DSLR made, but it is certainly true of the Pro-oriented E-3 whose construction and weather-sealing yield a solid camera that is both large and heavy. Perhaps to remind users that small ... |

The 84th Annual PMA kicked off in Las Vegas on Thursday. PMA bills itself as “The Worldwide Community of Imaging Associations”, and if it has to do with imaging you will find it on display at PMA. The event is usually a late February or early March event, but this years scheduling placed it just a few weeks after CES. The other major photo event, Photokina in Hanover, Germany, happens ... |

Many predicted that 2007
would be the year of the digital SLR, and industry shipments confirm the huge growth
in DSLR sales. In a time where home sales fell through the floor in the US and gas
prices began to soar, digital SLR sales have grown dramatically. In the third quarter
of this year digital camera sales increased 22% compared to the previous year, but
industry breakdowns show DSLR sal... |

As a result of the recent rush to 10 megapixel digital SLR cameras, everything that has been held sacred in the camera business is now upside down. At the price of yesterday's 6 megapixel cameras you can now buy almost twice the resolution - and you can definitely see the difference in pictures taken at 6 and 10 megapixels. The $1700 Nikon D200 is now mostly the same feature set and virtually th... |

It is remarkable how fast photography has shifted from film to digital imaging. If you doubt the shift is all but complete, check the impact on Kodak. Shutdown of US film operations has been accelerated several times, many thousands of employees have been cut, and Kodak stock has taken a beating as the company struggled to find secure footing in a new digital imaging world. All of this was happeni... |
