    Customer Review: Perfect fun useful camera!
    It has cool features like face recognition and color selection!! Love it! Gold is very unique and not very bling blig, more of a sandy color.
    Customer Review: Okay, but pretty good for the money
    I just got this camera today, and although I kinda like it, I am really disappointed at some of the picture quality. Keep in mind, though, that I was taking the pictures of myself so my hand was a little shaky. Also, when i tried to use the color swap it didn’t work all that great and was confusing…there is a better canon camera for only about $50 more that I wish I had gotten. My older sister got it instead…

    Canon EOS 20D (Magic Lantern Guides)

    By Mr.canon | June 19, 2008

    Canon EOS 20D (Magic Lantern Guides)

    The superb Canon EOS 20-D single-lens-reflex camera (SLR) has professional features at a consumer-friendly cost, and that’s why it’s bound to become a bestseller. Rob Sheppard, PCPhoto’s digital expert, shows owners how to make the most of this great equipment, with unequalled hands-on advice on all its technological capabilities and helpful accessories, including choosing and using lenses and flash units. Accompanied by loads of photos and diagrams, he covers features such as the all-new 8.2 MP CMOS Sensor; 5 fps performance for up to 23 consecutive frames; new high-precision 9-point AF System; built-in multi-controller for fast focusing; and much more. No Canon 20-D user will want to be without it.

    Customer Review: Great Learning Guide
    This book has been very helpful in understanding the digital “lingo” and how the features work. I have been an SLR user 30 years and finally made the move to digital by purchasing a Canon 20D. There were a lot of features that I didn’t understand and the manual that came with the camera wasn’t very clear. This book helped clear the fog around things like white balance, which is totally new for a former film user. I’ve been able to figure out why some of my photos have not come out like I expected and know how to correct them and not make the same mistake in the future. This book is a great investment for those who are new to the digital world.
    Customer Review: New Owner of Canon 20D
    I use this reference almost daily. Very easy to read and understand. Canon should cut a deal with Magic Lantern Guides and include with all sales. I recently upgraded from the Canon Rebel and used the Rebel guide for that camera as well.

    Canon PowerShot SX100IS 8MP Digital Camera with 10x Optical Image Stabilized Zoom (Black)

    By Mr.canon | June 19, 2008

    Canon PowerShot SX100IS 8MP Digital Camera with 10x Optical Image Stabilized Zoom (Black) 8-megapixel effective recording * 2-1/2″ LCD screen * 10X optical zoom (4X digital/40X total zoom) * optical image stabilizer * top JPEG resolution: 3264 X 2448 *
    Customer Review: Good but some features need improvement
    I own this camera for just a couple days only and here are some of my initial thoughts.
    Picture quality is excellent but there seems to be a problem with high ISO settings. The interface is cool but the 10 sec time lag also sucks.
    So if you want to have a camera that takes pics one after another speedily
    then this is not for you.
    More reviews after more use :)
    Customer Review: Camera BreakDown
    I bought my sx100IS camera from Amazon in March and the camera has stopped working. To add to it, I have travelled overseas and cant get it repaired under US warranty. When contacted Amazon, they cant replace it. I am in a fix. This model seems to have issues, I have always handled it carefully and it stopped working after leaving it idle for couple of weeks. None of the buttons,zoom work now. I can shoot the photo though. I am figuring out what to do with this camera. Amazon can you replace my camera? :(

    I would recommend only buying Canon batteries. This battery works great. The delivery time was amazing! I ordered 2 day service and got it the same day that I ordered it. I was in Seattle at this time though too.

    We ordered the product and paid for expedited shipping and received the product w/in about 2-3 days from the order date. We have only used the product once just to confirm that it worked okay with our Canon XTi Rebel and so far so good.

    The Confused Photographer’s Guide to On-Camera Spotmetering (The Confused Photographer’s Guide to . . . Series) (The Confused Photographer’s Guide to . . . Series)

    By Mr.canon | June 18, 2008

    The Confused Photographer’s Guide to On-Camera Spotmetering (The Confused Photographer’s Guide to . . . Series) (The Confused Photographer’s Guide to . . . Series) World’s first book written to illustrate the on-camera spot metering technique for 35mm, Digital, and Medium Format photographers:

    All types of metering systems used in different cameras (with the exception of the on-camera spotmeter operated by a skilled photographer) use a “cookie-cutter” approach to photographic exposure. What this means is the camera meter measures the various tones of your subject, and then averages all of the tones in order to come up with an overall exposure. Sometimes the overall exposure works and sometimes it doesn’t. With this approach, the ball is in the camera’s court and in many instances the photographer has no hand in the final look of the image. With on-camera spotmetering, the photographer uses a “tailored” approach to find the correct exposure for a very specific subject. With this approach, the skilled photographer interprets the spotmeter readings from the subject and establishes the correct exposure that captures the desired image (what the eye sees) on film. The consistency and flexibility of the narrow-angled spotmeter makes it the most powerful and versatile exposure tool in existance today. The only catch in using a spotmeter is that the photographer must have the skill to use this powerful tool correctly and effectively. The Confused Photographer’s Guide to On-Camera Spotmetering does just that! It is simple, easy-to-follow, and uses a common-sense teaching approach to the material. With more than seventy full-page illustrations, it is designed to get the beginner and the intermediate photographer started in a couple of days. I assume that you have a camera with a built-in spotmetering (partial metering) feature. I also assume that you have a ninth grade education and are willing to learn. To facilitate your learning process, I have included a two page cheat sheets for each of the following cameras: Canon EOS 10D Digital Slr, Canon EOS 20D Digital Slr, Canon EOS 3, Canon EOS A2/A2E, Canon EOS Elan 2E, Canon EOS Elan 7E, Canon EOS Rebel 2000, Canon EOS Rebel Ti/300V, Canon PowerShot G3 Digital, Canon PowerShot G5 Digital, Minolta Maxxum 5, Minolta Maxxum 7, Minolta Maxxum 9, Minolta Maxxum StSi, Nikon CoolPix 990 Digital, Nikon CoolPix 995 Digital, Nikon CoolPix 4500 Digital, Nikon CoolPix 5700 Digital, Nikon Coolpix 5000 Digital, Nikon Coolpix 8700 Digital, Nikon D70 Digital Slr, Nikon F4, Nikon F5, Nikon F100, Nikon N50, Nikon N55, Nikon N60, Nikon N6006, Nikon N65, Nikon N70, Nikon N75, Nikon N80, Nikon N8008s, Nikon N90/N90s, Pentax *ist, Pentax *ist-D Digital SLR, Pentax 645N Medium Format, Pentax MZ-S, Pentax PZ-1P, Pentax ZX-5N, and Sony DSC-F717 Digital. If your camera is not listed here, you will still be able to learn the technique and apply it successfully.
    Customer Review: Great Book
    Until I had this book one takes photographs that the camera takes. After reading this book you can be in control. The Author gives a very detailed and easy to understand explanation of why some photographs don’t turn out the way we expect them to and tells you how to manipulate the new electronic exposure meters built in to today’s cameras.
