300d black body
"J?rg Preddimann" wrote in message om... Mark Spacey wrote in message ... canon have started rolling out black bodied 300d http://www.dpreview.com/news/0404/04...s300dblack.asp only in japan at the moment the 300d in silver was a marketing disaster given the d70 people paying £600 + do not want a digital slr that looks like a £4.99 instamatitic, canon should switch to all black bodies NOW and see sales go through the roof, come on canon get your act together More importantly than fixing the appearance of the camera's exterior, Canon should strongly consider fixing the main problem INSIDE the 300D/Rebel--the mass produced (outsourced at sweat shops throughout the poorest sections of Asia) inferior version of the already horrible grayscale CMOS found in the 10D. Canon should consider switching to Foveon sensors if they want to be around in 5 years. George, This is a stupid post even by your standards. Since when have ANY CMOS devices ever been produced in "sweat shops" ? |

300d black body
The very best the SD10 can do concerning signal to noise ratio is 42 dB at
ISO 100 compared to 50dB at ISO 200 for the Canon EOS 1D Mark II (the very best). These are very interesting figures. Did they also test the Nikon D70 and Olympus E-1? What were the signal to noise ratios for those cameras at ISO 100 and 200? I'll show you what the SD10 produces at night exposure (ISO 100, 30sec) and what the D70 produces (ISO 200 =lowest , 30 sec) SD10 picture http://www.dpreview.com/reviews/Sigm...t/IMG10084.jpg D70 picture http://www.dpreview.com/reviews/Niko...t/DSC_0003.jpg any more comments needed?

Well, I did ask about the Olympus E-1! Sorry, I thought you asked about both cameras - D70 and E1 The E1 has also a good picture quality, but much more noise at high iso levels (800, 1600) Also I think the camera is too expensive and doesn't offer a lot of lenses. But thanks for posting those links. The D70 is a remarkable performer. I don't know why anyone would want to buy the D100 when the D70 is cheaper and so much better in terms of image quality. Maybe because of the metal body. There are no other reasons to buy the D100. Anyway the D100 will be replaced this fall, there is no reason to buy it anymore. |

The E1 has also a good picture quality, but much more noise at high iso levels (800, 1600) Also I think the camera is too expensive and doesn't offer a lot of lenses. I use an E-1 and three lenses for a variety of paid work, and find it offers outstanding picture quality for a 5MP camera. As it is a very robust and (sp far completely) reliable pro quality camera body, I don't think it is expensive compared to its pro quality competition. However, if you are prepared to accept a consumer-grade standard of build and feature set, I agree that there are cheaper alternatives. As for lenses, the Zuiko range for the E-1 is superb. I can also use most OM Zuiko lenses with an adapter. I was interested to know whether the Chasseur d'Images report included the Olympus E-1. |

Is that how you did it? In any case, the SD10 is certainly crap.

The D100 is probably going to be replaced at Photokina, the D70 is a great camera. But I can see a D200(?) and a D2X being released at Photokina 2004 this Fall. http://www.photokina.de |

The D70 certainly took some wind out of the sails of the RebelD, at least technologically speaking... -- Skip Middleton |
