PROS: jaw dropping performance in low light, very user friendly buttons with wide display and feature rich gadget

CONS: nothing found so far already took more than 1000 images

Best SLR camera in low light

Submitted by hjfok on 11/12/2006 4:09:11 AM

PROS: Excellent image quality, fast, best low light performance in its class

CONS: Not weather sealed. Cost can add up with lens and accessories

Awesome camera. Awesome build. High performance.

PROS: Excellent design and craftsmanship. Solid feel. User friendly. Intuitive placement of controls for eyes-on-target handling.

CONS: A little expensive. You need to know why you got it over something simpler. It requires some effort to get the best photos but is very capable.

Incredible speed!

Submitted by ramiske on 7/16/2006 4:08:28 AM

PROS: Write speed to CF card, burst speed, and wake up speed, and the improved CMOS sensor

CONS: None yet that I have found

Excellent usability, an excellent digital SLR value.

PROS: Quality, price, performance, and reliability in every dimension summarizes this camera; it is fast, feels great in my hands, and the controls are intuitive for Canon EOS enthusiasts. Photo quality=10.

CONS: I would like to see the wireless speedlite control built into the body like the Nikon D70s, but otherwise, this camera is hard to criticize, quality or otherwise.

Very good camera except for the LCD zoom feature.

PROS: Fast; easy to use

CONS: LCD Zoom is not useful at all to check focus and sharpness. The 17-85 mm lens had to be replaced due to a manufacturing defect.

Great Camera but a little cheesy with that print button!

Submitted by richardk0108 on 3/5/2006 4:07:12 AM

PROS: spot metering, iso setting visible in viewfinder, 100,000 shutter cycles, 2.5" LCD screen, great picture quality, build quality

CONS: 3.5% spot metering (d70 has 1%), direct print button (it is only for new canon printers! Quite distracting presence if you don't plan to buy canon pixma pro9500 or 9000 printers!)

_FINALLY_ ...

PROS: Spot metering

CONS: Hmm.. if forced to find one, the mid-sized SLR (+ lenses, accessories) is not the most compact for carrying, esp for travelling. It has other advantages of course. And not unique to this camera.

keep up the great work Canon!

PROS: everything from the 20D , but now there's a spot meter and more RAW buffering. Bigger LCD is also a good tweak.

CONS: no weather sealing

You know I was gonna get a 20d

Submitted by yogibm1 on 2/26/2006 4:07:19 AM

PROS: I loved the 20d, I spent a lot of time looking at it and feeling it. But I just felt that It had been over a year since the last camera had came out. I knew a stronger one was out there.

CONS: I don't know of any at the time.
