From the words of the Fuhrer himself:
The last Downfall parody that Phillip Bloom will make about Canon’s relentless onslaught of HDDSLR awesomeness.
The Canon 550D is the successor to the Canon 500D, an entry level DSLR that can now shot…. 1080p in 24, 25 and 30 fps and 720p in 50 and 60 fps. That’s Canon 7D territory!
I guess this is what happens with technology. You buy the latest computer then 6 months later, there’s another one that’s half the price and just as good.
Am I sad? No. It’s great that it’s cheap. I’m sure a lot of my friends will get it, so I’ll be able to borrow it as a B camera. Maybe if it’s real cheap, I’ll even get it as a back up.
In the end, the body can only do so much, it’s all about the lens… or at least, that’s what I thought until I saw the diff between full frame and crop sensors in low light…
