The Canon PowerShot S95 Digital Camera

Share

The most significant change in the Canon PowerShot S95 Digital Camera is its addition of a high definition 720p (1,280 x 720 pixel) movie mode, with stereo sound. This compares very favorably to the standard-definition VGA and QVGA movie modes of the S90, even if the new HD mode uses a slightly lower frame rate of 24 frames-per-second. The Canon S95’s movies are still saved using H.264 compression, in a .MOV container.

The body of the Canon S95 is quite similar to that of its predecessor, although it’s a fraction of a millimeter less tall and deep, and a few grams heavier. The front panel has some added texture, but otherwise you’d be hard put to tell the cameras apart without seeing the model number.

That’s not to say there aren’t any visible hardware changes, though. The Canon PowerShot S95 now sports a mini HDMI connector, allowing it to be plugged into newer high-definition displays. It also adds support for the latest higher-capacity variant of the Secure Digital card standard, dubbed SDXC.

A new High Dynamic Range (HDR) scene mode is also offered, where the camera combines three sequential images at various exposures to improve dynamic range, though it requires the use of a tripod. One other change of note is that Canon has added some extra aspect ratio settings to the S95, such as 3:2, 1:1, and 4:5, catering for a greater variety of print formats without the need to crop images post-capture.

Other specifications are largely unchanged from the previous PowerShot S90. These include a stabilized 3.8x optical zoom lens with an uncommonly bright f/2.0 aperture at its useful 28mm wide angle, falling to an f/4.9 aperture at its moderate 105mm telephoto position, a reasonably high resolution 460,000 dot 3.0-inch LCD panel, five-mode flash, ISO sensitivities from 80 to 3,200 equivalents at full resolution, and full manual exposure capability. Power comes courtesy of an NB-6L lithium-ion rechargeable.

The Canon PowerShot S95 started shipping in the USA from late-August 2010, priced at around US0 — some cheaper than its predecessor.

Canon PowerShot S95 User Report

by Shawn Barnett

Fresh off reviewing the Panasonic LX5, I’m impressed by the similarities between the it and the Canon PowerShot S95. Both have a 3.8x, f/2.0, image-stabilized lens, a 3-inch LCD, a 10-megapixel sensor, a pop-up flash, a zoom toggle surrounding the shutter button, and more dials than the average pocket digital camera. Of course, there are differences as well. The Canon S95’s focal length ranges from 28-105mm, while the LX5’s covers a wider 24-90mm. The S95’s LCD is a 4:3 aspect ratio, while the LX5’s is 3:2. The Canon S95 is also smaller and has no hot shoe, while it does have a unique reprogrammable front Control Ring. They are both aimed at the premium pocket market, and also differ only slightly from their predecessors. For its part, the Canon S95 is improved in some important ways.

Look and feel. Canon did a great job making the S95 compact, yet with a bright lens and larger sensor than the average digital camera. Dressed all in black, the boldest element of the Canon S95 is the bright white Canon logo, embossed just as it is on the company’s digital SLRs. Everything else appears military-grade, designed for stealth, perfect for street photography. Even the S95 logo the font around the lens barrel are a dark gray, unlike the S90’s bright white. Other than that, little has changed on the front of the S95, except that the microphone hole has been replaced with microphone holes at the lower left and right of the lens to accommodate the Canon S95’s stereo audio recording with the new 720p HD movie mode.

Canon EOS 50D 15.1MP Digital SLR Camera Review

Share

I started a photography business and i have been using my Canon Rebel T1i for the past year. it has been a good camera and that i find it irresistible, however currently that i am getting down to do additional weddings, I required a additional semi-professional camera to stay up with the pace and strain of your average wedding. I had been wanting to urge the 50D for a few time and once i used to be procured a marriage and therefore the 60D was announced (looks like Canon is creating the XXD line additional shopper oriented), I knew it had been time to urge the 50D. Having return from using the T1i, the primary factor I had to urge used to was all the buttons. Seriously, there are additional buttons on the 50D as a result of parameters like meter, white balance, etc. have their own button instead of having to travel through menus like on the T1i. however this makes changes a lot of faster, since there are less menus to dig into. and therefore the adjustment wheel on the rear of the camera is awesome, once more as a result of it makes changes fast. I now not have to be compelled to press a button to regulate exposure compensation, I will simply use the wheel on the rear.

The camera is additionally quieter than the T1i. Shutter and mirror noise from the 50D are noticeably quieter than the T1i. this may facilitate greatly with the weddings i will be shooting and with additional photojournalistic shoots. Everything else concerning the camera may be a intensify from the T1i. simply some things i actually like are the faster burst rate (6 fps looks like a machine gun) and having all the main target points be cross kind, that aids greatly in low light-weight focusing (espcially with a quick prime, like my 85mm f/1.8). All this may facilitate me capture weddings far better. the sole downside is that the 50D with a position (I bought an Opteka) is kind of huge and significant. The T1i with a battery grip felt pretty hefty, however the 50D with a position appears like i am carrying around a brick. i am positive over time i am going to get used to the load, except for currently I typically assume twice concerning carrying the 50D around. It will facilitate plenty to urge a padded shoulder strap (I found one by Targus that was solely ).

As I still grow my photography business, I even have confidence currently tackling additional jobs with the 50D compared to merely having the T1i. I expect to actually putting the camera through its paces.?
