      Award: Editor's Choice!

      Review summary: Offering image quality and a robust feature set typically found in pricier prosumer-level D-SLRs, the Canon EOS Rebel T1i is a definite game-changer. For less than $1,000 ($899.99 list with an EF-S 18-to-55mm IS lens), you get a 15.1-megapixel CMOS ...

      Pros: Excellent value. Stellar image quality. Fast performance. HD (720p30) video capture. Big, 3-inch high-res (VGA) screen. HDMI-out

      Cons: Cannot continuously focus during video recording (user must hold down a button to refocus if subjects change their distance from the camera). Autofocus mechanism is audible in video recordings. Full HD 1080 video capture looks sluggish due to its low ...

      Verdict: The Canon EOS Rebel T1i helps redefine the D-SLR landscape by offering prosumer features, performance, and image quality for less than $1,000.

      By Alexandra Savvides

      Review summary: canon eos 500d review: The 500D is a very capable camera that is ideal for someone entering the world of digital SLRs. The inclusion of high-definition video adds even more appeal to the already good-looking package.

      Cons: Viewfinder is small ; Video quality is not that impressive ; Autofocus in movie mode is loud

      Canon EOS 500D

      By Elias Plastiras

      Pros: Excellent low light performance (up to 3200 ISO), can shoot video at 720p, produces soft and natural-looking colour tones

      Cons: ISO button in an uncomfortable position, Live View mode is not intuitive, LCD screen does not pop out, no external microphone jack

      Verdict: Canon's EOS 500D is a nice step up from the 400D. It is worth considering this digital SLR if you want the ability to capture high quality video with a still camera.

      Canon EOS 500D

      By Lori Grunin

      Review summary: The 15-megapixel EOS 500D is an impressive entry-level digital SLR, offering sharp pictures and speedier performance than some more expensive models, as well as solid hi-def video capability. There are some annoyances, such as the viewfinder, but the ...

      Pros: Fast performance ; very good photo quality ; offers hi-def video capture

      Cons: Annoying viewfinder ; video capture is its only better-than-basic feature

      Verdict: A solid, slightly better-than-basic dSLR, the Canon EOS 500D delivers photo quality and performance that adequately compensate for most of its annoyances

      Canon EOS 500D

      By Margaret Brown

      Review summary: Announced in late March, Canon's EOS 500D is another 'in-betweener' model, like the Nikon D5000 and Olympus E-620 we reviewed recently. Positioned between the 450D and the 50D, the EOS 500D offers the same effective resolution of 15.1 megapixels as ...

      Verdict: Our shooting tests for the review camera were performed with both the 18-55mm and 55-250mm lenses that comprise the twin lens kit (RRP $1999). Test shots were taken in a wide range of weather conditions, covering both sunny and overcast conditions, ...
