Hello Kiss
Saturday, August 9th, 2008
Alas, after over 5 years of photography, I now own a digital SLR, the Canon EOS 450D, aka - Kiss x2.
It is at the lower end of digital SLR’s, the "entry level" cameras, but still, it’s superior by all means over point and shoot and SLR-like regular cameras.
One of the shots I was dying to try is the long exposure zoom effect, that can only be achieved in SLR cameras, where the zoom can be changed during exposure, resulting in stunning effects, such as:
Another feature I’m glad to test is the IS (Image stabilizer), which can also be found in some SLR-like cameras. It allows shooting photos at dimmer light conditions, up to an amazing 1/3 of a second exposure, with little or no motion blur.
The image was shot with high ISO (1600) allowing for even faster exposure, but resulting in significant noise.
Also including real manual focus, high image qulity, super fast shooting rate and startup time, interchangable lenses, amazingly fast and accurate focus , canon patented self cleaning sensor and many image processing features, are all part of the Canon EOS 450D.
Though I usualy post images very rarly, I will try doing so much more often in the near future, as I experiment with this new toy.
