I'm thinking of buying my son a new zoom lens for Xmas. He has a Canon 1000D. I'm thinking of getting http://www.amazon.co.uk/Canon-EF-S-55-250mm-4-5-6-Lens/dp/B0056E49MK/ref=dp_ob_title_ce from Amazon, but know nothing really about lenses, does this one look OK? He only has one lens at the...

After checking the WHICH? site, I have bought a new camera. Canon EOS 1000D with two Canon IS (Image Stabiliser) lenses. These are the 18-55 and 55-250. The best price I could get was from e-bay and it came with a 4gig card. I think it will suit Eileen's and my purposes. Also getting a Lowepro bag...

Canon today announced the new EOS 60D, an upgrade to the 50D and a relative of the 550D (T2i). It is smaller than the previous 50D and has a plastic body like the 550D. It gains features from both the 550D and the 7D as well as a full HD movie mode and a swivelling LCD panel. Instead of the CF...

EOS 40Ds don't bounce. Put mine in a partially (it turns out) padded bag which fell off a chair and landed upside down. Other things in the bag were fine but the 40D landed LCD down which cracked. :( Don't mention the insurance which was still on the previous camera. :mad: John

Just announced by Canon for May 2009 is the EOS 500D DSLR (Rebel T1i in the US). This has a 15 megapixel sensor with many of the 50D features crammed into a 450D body and a HD movie mode added. From the press release: "A resolution of 15.1 Megapixels records each moment in rich, intricate...

I can't get my Canon 300D to turn on. The batteries are fully charged. I don't know where to start looking for the fault. Any advice will be greatly appreciated, fed up with tearing my hair out for what seems to be a simple problem (but maybe it's not):confused: :confused: Thank You in advance

I've had a Canon 20D for about three years now and I've taken some great pictures with it, but suddenly I'm having problems. Each image is pin-sharp focus on the left side of the picture, but just ever-so slightly out of focus on the right side. I've tried different F settings and speeds but to no...

Canon just announced the 450D for delivery in March. 3" LCD, 12 MP, Live View, etc. It seems like an evolution of the 350D and 400D rather than a radical new design.

Hi - i'm about to get either a Canon Ixus 75 or 860 - but i'm confused about the memory cards - I want max possible capacity - so what cards can these cameras use? Is the maximum size 4gig - or a 2gig High Capacity card? What sort should i go for? And looking on Amazon there seems to be a wide...

The long-anticipated upgrade to the 30D was just announced by Canon. http://web.canon.jp/imaging/eosd/eos40d/ Many internal improvements as well as live view, dust removal, larger viewfinder, faster and longer continuous shooting. John

Not only have I broke my 20D but it now seems that I have got to send my 70-300mm IS zoom lens back as there seems to be a problem with the resolution at the 300mm end. Canon have issued this notice Click here and type in the case id 26855. (For some reason I can't link to the page directly) ...

I'm looking for a lens that will be better for low light conditions and this seems to be a well recommended lens for the bargain price of around £60 online, was just wondering if anybody here had any experience or opinions on it?

This is a discussion continued from the photo areas, where you'd put up a corrupted photo from your Canon Digital Rebel (350D)... Having one corrupt image probably isn't a big deal.. but as you say, a new memory card would seem a likely suspect. The only thing I've seen re memory cards of...
