Title: Canon EOS 30D SLR
Pros: High quality RAW conversion Excellent interface
Cons: Software's RAW conversion is slow Auto-bracketing limited to three stops
Verdict: Other important new additions include the ability to adjust ISO in increments of one-third stop; an ISO readout in the viewfinder, so you don't have to consult the LCD to change the ISO; an optional slower burst speed, which permits more shots in a single
Summary: It might be logical to assume that Canon's new EOS 30D digital SLR camera, successor to the company's popular EOS 20D, would pack a higher-resolution sensor. But such is not the case. The EOS 30D ($1499 as of March 21, 2006) provides the same imaging circ

Title: Canon EOS 30D
Verdict: I've been shooting with an EOS 20D since it was introduced in the fall of 2004 and I've been very happy with it. I expected the EOS 30D to be essentially the same and in many ways it is, though I have to admit that it is a nicer camera to use.

Cons: No revolutionary changes, probably not worth the money as an upgrade for current 20D owners, Strong reds still get a bit oversaturated, Auto white balance is only average, camera has a hard time with strongly-colored light sources (miserable color under h
Summary: The Canon EOS-30D is the latest in Canon's broad line of digital SLR models, but it is more evolutionary than revolutionary, keeping most of what was excellent about its predecessor, the EOS 20D. Canon says they listened to feedback from 20D customers and

Title: Review: Canon 30D
Pros: Image quality, low noise, logical layout that's familiar to any Canon user
Cons: Not a great upgrade to the 20D, no anti dust, no image stabiliser in the camera
Verdict: I started this review by saying that I would help you decide between the 30D and the 5D. I can't - it's up to you whether you prefer the full frame of the 5D or the cropped sensor of the 30D (plus the extra £750 in your pocket - the 5D is currently twice

Title: CANON EOS30D DSLR
Pros: : The Canon EOS 30D is a well-balanced camera that feels just right in the hand. The combination of build quality and responsiveness inspire confidence.
Cons: Controls are not intuitive. By default the camera uses an absurd auto focussing system that is almost guaranteed to produce out-of-focus images. To reset the auto focus area to the same centre spot as the exposure meter it is necessary to consult the inst
Verdict: The Canon EOS 30D with the better lens is competition for the Nikon D200 which has a 10 megapixel sensor. Choosing between the two would be difficult and a great pleasure! Anyone lucky (rich) enough to be shopping in this market gets to choose between two

Verdict: The Canon EOS-30D is an excellent midrange digital SLR. While its new features aren't exciting enough to get this 20D owner to run out and upgrade, those who are moving up from point-and-shoot or entry-level D-SLRs should definitely give the 30D a look.Fr

Title: Canon EOS 30D Digital SLR
Pros: Excellent interface; large LCD screen; new spot meter; excellent image quality; lower price than its predecessor.
Cons: Auto-bracketing limited to three stops; no external bracketing control.
Verdict: At first glance, the 30D looks exactly like its predecessor. The camera has the same control layout as the 20D, but a glance at the back of the camera reveals a 2.5-inch LCD screen--a marked improvement over the 20D's 1.8-inch screen
