Canon EOS 30D Review At PopPhoto

July 19, 2006

PopPhoto has a new review of the 8 megapixel Canon EOS 30D and here is an excerpt - “Given everything that this camera can do, and do well, it ranks as a near-perfect advanced amateur/semi-pro camera. Notice the “near-perfect.” In field use of the 30D, we were reintroduced to the few quirks and inconveniences of the 20D: Setting a custom white balance, for one, is unduly complex - a five-step procedure, when most other DSLRs in this class can do it in two.”

[Read our Canon EOS 30D Review Roundup & View Sample Pictures] What’s Hot - A big 2.5-inch screen and a real spotmeter, finally! - Kick-butt burst mode. - Tougher shutter.

What’s Not - Clumsy custom WB setting. - Eyeglass-wearers may not see full finder. - Wireless TTL flash controller costs extra. - “Multicontroller” nub not so handy.
