Went to Vivo yesterday, checked out Canon's showroom, it's in a corner adjacent to the cinema. Anyways, was trying to select a DSLR for myself. Well, i wanted to get a new camera, cuz I've seriously stretched my compact to the fullest possible potential. I shoot stuff flying past at almost 300kph, and with compacts there's ultra-high shutter lags and the terrible slow focuses and the zooming goes with all the speed of continental drift!!! All these means that 1, either u have the aircraft off-center, headless or unfocused; 2, u can only shoot each passing plane at a single zoom distance, cuz u have no time to zoom in or out. What's more, the 1.5 fps burst mode is total rubbish, so is low light performance. In short, it's like a kid's toy. No choice, it's a compact. So, to solve all the performance issues, I chose to get a DSLR, cuz Super Zooms face the same problems.So anyways, i found the most perfect camera, the EOS 500D, it's only entry-level, but it's best in its class, and it truly is AMAZING! It's on a whole new level compared to its predecessors, like the 450D.
Firstly, I love the ClearView LCD, super high resolution, same that on the professional 5D mk2!
Second, it uses DIGIC 4 processor, also a boost from the 450D's DIGIC 3. In conjunction with the CMOS, it totally rock hardcore!!!
Finally, the BEST thing is, FULL HD VIDEO RECORDING man, same as the EOS 5D Mk2!!! Total ownage!!! I dun have to carry around a compact for the sake of videos anymore lolz! And also many other good stuff. Yea u cant compare compacts with SLRs.
It's also supports my EF 28-80mm lens, from my dad's old EOS 50. And i have a Speedlite 380EX flashgun and remote switch, all from my dad lolz. In short it totally thrashes compacts, makes it look like a total pipsqueak toy, but dun get me wrong i still like my W120 :D
What I need is perhaps telephoto, the EF 70-200mm f/2.8 IS USM would work perfect, but that costs thousands. dream on o.O
