New images of 300D

Arigatoo gozaimasu.

Do you think that the picture of the glass of ice tea or something looks out of focus? Or is it because the DOF is small therefore only one tinny slice of the glass is actually in focus? That picture was taken with 50mm F1.8 iso100 shutter 1/13. Ah could also be hand shake that had caused the slight blur.

Portraits looks great.
There are three pages in total.
The review guy is saying the images are excellent!

Good find, thanks! :-)

Just a few comments after downloading and briefly reviewing the samples:
  • There are three night shots: ISO 100, 400, and 1600. ISO 1600 looks very usable to me! Not that I'd want to use it all the time as the noise is clearly visible, but from what I've seen, my G2 at ISO 200 would struggle to look this good.
  • I believe they are showing lens distortion in the one photo on page 2 of the four buildings. I'm assuming this is with the 18-55 lens as the focal lengths shows 18mm in the EXIF. Not sure how this compares to other 18mm lenses?
  • Clearly, some other lenses were used aside from the kit lens because I see apertures like 1.8, 2.8, etc which wouldn't be available with the kit lens. I can't decipher it all, though, so maybe someone else can enumerate them?
Overall, I like what I see! :-)

Is that CA in the first pic?
Are you referring to 14-2 (the one with the girl and very bright background)?

I don't see any CA, just looks to be a VERY bright background that is blown out.

For some weird reason he has not stopped down any of the lenses.. I've no idea why.

It is meant to be soft. Remember, dSLR's do not do any processing inside the camera. Sharpening included.

It's hard to say since the text is in Japanese.

However, I did recognize one lens (50mm f/1.8 II) under this photo http://arena.nikkeibp.co.jp/rev/camera/20030902/105780/19.shtml and it looks pretty soft to me. So in that photo, it is probably the camera since the 50mm f/1.8 II produces sharp and colorful photos.

BTW, the 50mm f/1.8 lens is a real bargain at under $70.00 and is popular among many dSLR users. Digital Rebel users should really consider buying this inexpensive lens.

The 28 mm wide angle beach image is soft as well to me. I know there is a sharpness control in the camera and we do not know its setting (maybe it is +1 or +2...).

Anyway I think it is too soft for images out of the camera. That means post-processing is a must here (and post-processing is really time consuming).

Post processing isn't necessarily bad.

When you own a dSLR and download your pictures, you will understand why many prefer to process their photos outside of the camera.

One of the people I work with converted this for me - not a great translation but it gets the point across:

(I hope the original author doesnt mind, I'll repring their copyright at the start in case that helps)

It is an image quality and a dead heat in high-ranking Model EOS 10D "EOS Kiss Digital". It is an efficient camera though this is a price in the first half 100,000 yen level. This made a digital single lens reflex camera familiar.

Reflecting of this lens cannot be especially called a high-resolution as a lens for the single lens reflex camera. Sharp Quite shows it though it tends to come to tend to grow dim in the part of the screen in the surrounding as the image flows. It is much more efficient than the zoom lens of a general, compact digital camera from the overall viewpoint.
  • If it is a person who wants to take the Geccri, it is finish of complaint Nashi.
It can be said that the biggest different is in the number of sheets of the taking a picture buffer when convenience is compared with EOS 10D. As for Kiss D, Kiss D was waited for until it took time for writing in the memory card, and the shutter came to cut when the shutter was cut continuously by taking a picture of the portrait and sports, etc. though it was four pieces, and the number of EOS 10D was 9 occasionally.
  • It took a picture of the person by using a standard zoom at fine weather. Though it took a picture by exposing brightness because it is woman's portrait, It is a Model in a fresh impression because it shows the connection of the step where the part where Shirat was done is natural that finishes (On the left: For ISO100 and 1/80 seconds on the right fine of the white balance of F5.6 and squeezing priority +2/3 corrections: the left fine weather under of F6.3, the squeezing priority, and the white balance for ISO100 and 1/50 seconds: F5.6, squeezing priority +1/3 corrections, and fine weather of the white balance for ISO100 and 1/200 seconds): Imai. (stardust promotion)
Moreover, I felt the back dial of EOS 10D that was able to be used conveniently because of the exposure correction etc. though it had been changed to four direction key in Kiss D the dial was excellent to do a speedy operation. In addition, it becomes 1/3 step fixation in Kiss D though 1/3 steps and 1/2 steps were able to be selected in 10D in the step of the exposure correction. It was felt that it was good, and when the AEB function (* note) was used by actual outdoor location, I felt that the width of Barashi of the exposure was a too little in 1/3 it was possible to correct it in detail.

(* note)AEB function = "Automatic Exposure Blacketting": Automatic level exposure functionThree photographs standard/brightness/dark can continuously be taken for Canon Inc. with the shutter of one time.

If the taking a picture speed of professional A level is requested or the goodness of little convenience is valued, it is clear that EOS 10D exceeds it more than Kiss D. Everything is equipped with a necessary function, and however, it is Kiss D that boasts of the image quality that equals a high-ranking model and there is not dissatisfaction with Geccri if it settles down and taking a picture is advanced either.
  • It takes a picture of Kabukiza of the night by a standard zoom. The wide-angle lens of 29 considerable mm firmly supplied the building of great dimensions in the picture corner though taking a picture that fell behind was not able to have been done because it faced the Main Street. As for a dark condition, slight feeling of the feeling of quality of the wall and the color of the lighting hands down reproduction in the round. (F8.0, squeezing priority auto, auto white balance for ISO100 and 1/2 seconds)
  • The flash is made to emit light and it takes a picture of the hamster. Totonohica of the flash was also appropriate though it was a full auto. Even if this lens approaches from the front side of the lens to about 15cm, the focus is suitable by the whole area of the zoom. It is a lens the all-rounder who can copy it from the small one to scenery. (F5.6, fully-automatic mode, and auto white balance for ISO400 and 1/60 seconds)
  • It put on the EF lens of 50mmF1.8, it substituted, and it took a picture of the table of the restaurant. It can enjoy drawing with the air feeling not obtained easily in a compact digital camera because of a bright design though the price of this lens is about 9000 ....real.. sales.. yen. (F1.8, program mode, auto white balance, and EF50mm F1.8II use for ISO100 and 1/13 seconds)
  • It took a picture of the flower in the parterre in the macro with 90mm lens. If the AF frame of seven point Hacakyo is guided, the focus is exactly matched by the pistil at the center though it is a photograph where the focus is extremely shallow. The description of the downy hair that grows in the leaf is also real. (F3.5, squeezing priority mode, fine weather of white balance, and TS-E90mm F2.8 use for ISO100 and 1/640 seconds)
