Product Review: Canon EOS Rebel T1i EF-S

From: usaCanon.com

Overview:

The EOS Rebel T1i is packed with features, both refined and new. In addition to its admirable performance with an all-new 15.1 Megapixel Canon CMOS sensor, DIGIC 4 Image Processor, a 3.0-inch Clear View LCD with anti-reflective and scratch-resistant coating, and compatibility with the EOS System of lenses and Speedlites, the EOS Rebel T1i adds remarkable Full HD video capture at resolutions up to 1920 x 1080. An HDMI port allows for quick connections to high definition TVs and monitors for easy viewing of your stills and video. The entire operation is simple and easy even if you are a beginner. You'll have uncompromised EOS Digital performance with power and flexibility right in the palm of your hand.

My Review:

This camera is a great DSLR to learn advanced photography skills on before spending upwards of $2000 - $7000 for a professional grade DSLR. I also like that when you do decide to upgrade to a professional grade if you go with the Canon EOS series, all the lenses you purchase for the EOS Rebel can be used with all EOS Cameras. I have learned a lot using this camera. The advanced features are easy to learn by internet searches and online tutorials. It is a great camera for a great price. I cannot recommend it highly enough. When I upgrade I will definitely be going with a Canon.

I give it a 5 out of 5 stars

My husband and I were on our way to Newberg, Oregon when we saw a sign for the Tualatin River National Wildlife Refuge. We decided to stop by on our way back to Portland and check it out. When we got there it looked like there wasn't much to take photographs of but we decided to start down the trail anyway. As we got about 5 minutes in we saw these strange flying insects and grasshoppers. When one of the flying insects finally landed where we could get a look at it we realized they were flying mantis. As insects tend be skittish when you get to close them I used a telephoto lens to get macro shots of them. There were also hawks and different types of flowers that bloom late in the summer.
I would recommend this Wildlife Refuge to anyone who enjoys the outdoors and/or photography. There is many different area's to see and will provide many different views depending on the time of day and year.
