I decided recently to upgrade from a Rebel XT (which I've used for the past three years) to the 50D, and as usual, Canon has produced a solid, quality product. It is definitely a good move up from the Rebel, even though I was very happy with my Rebe
I really apreciatte this seller, because I didn't have much time to receive the purchase and he did comply the delivery time. Besides that, the product arrived in great conditions. Thanks a lot!!
I have only had this camera for a little more than a month but this camera has proven to be great camera. Being my first real dSLR I thought that I would have a steep learning curve but this model is not that complicated. It has all the features I was loo
I upgraded from a Canon EOS 10D. I bought this camera because the price was within my budget and I've already invested in several Canon lenses. The increased screen size was a welcome change as my customers are always wanting to see their photos righ
Us it as a stooding back up and main camers on location shoots. The new LCD is now something that can be used to even check sharpness. High ISO is also another plus at Basketball game I just shot and forgot my 580II Flash.
I am a semi professional photographer - I find that this Camera is awesome! I needed a camera with more flexibility and higher ISO settings. It had to be able to focus fast and shoot fast. I do lots of wildlife shots so it's gotta work as fast as I c
I recently purchased the 50D as a upgrade to my cherished 20D. Obviously a remarkable difference that was more than i expected. It is a bit heavy, but that did not take long to get used to. Took it on a international shoot one week after purchase and it p
I bought this Canon 50D body to replace the Canon Rebel Xti body I was using with a Canon 70-200mm 2.8L lens. The Canon 50D has a faster logic system for the sports shooting I mainly do. I get almost twice as many frames per second and the photos are in
I knew what I was buying,so the review is not about the product, but about the retailer. Prompt service. Zero complaints from me. Product was packaged well and I had zero problems with these folks. If you are curious about the 50D (previously owned 20D an
I moved to this camera body from a Canon EOS 10D model 2003. That camera served me very well throughout the years, but it had some limitations. In all aspects this new EOS 50D camera seriously outperforms the other camera on a large margin. As a sign of e
Upgraded to 50D from Digital Rebel. The features on this camera are far superior to Rebel. Image quality is fantastic. Proud new owner of 50D. Well worth the money. Think this will be my camera of choice for many years to come.
Hello, I love this camera so much. I was in Key West and the camera fell off the bed onto the tile floor. The pop up flash is cracked a little and I am very sad. Is it possible to fix it. It was my fault, I put it on the edge of the bed and the next
Thank you Jodi-Ann Richards, for such a detailed review on the Canon DSLR 50D. I am looking at buying a DSLR, and have my 'eye' on all the newest models. I have a Canon Film SLR Rebel Ti, and have read reviews for the Xsi and the new Rebel Ti1 a

The 50D is a nice upgrade camera; I have owned several of the "crop" cameras including the XT, XSi, 40D, etc. The new 50D is definitely worth moving up. The LCD is a huge improvement; the extra MPs give you a lot of cropping room. The camera
Odered Canon 50D camera without any problems. The order arrived on time just as promised. Could track the order after it was shipped through the tracking number provided by Amazon. No high pressur sales people called. Very satisfied with overall service
I love this camera! I have owned the 20 D for some years now, and just hard the urge to upgrade. I love to take pictures. For being an amateur I certainly take good quality pictures. See the bride pictures I took with this camera with the Canon Speedli
I use this camera more than the 1D lately. overall, if you are reading this you have already done your research and have some knowledge of photography and this camera! My review is more so of the experience from amazon.com! This is one of the best onli
I upgraded from the Rebel XSi (a great camera) to this because I wanted a larger body (large hands, the XSi just felt a bit too petite even though it was a great SLR for the price.) This camera, when used correctly, produces significantly better images t
There is NO way the 50D should be rated less than "4 stars". We have both 40D and a 50D bodies and have all L lens except for our 50mm 1.4. The 50D is sharper than my 40D and the images are not soft. The images are no more noisy than my 40D. As
I have 3 young children and have recently departed the realm of point-and-shoot through the Rebel XsI (great camera). I was afraid of the size issue, of carrying a Dslr around and missing some good shots of the kids. However I was also disapointed at cand
This is The Best Camera on the market in this price range (upto 2500) Use ISO from 100 till 400 only, don't use noise reduction. and choose manualy 1 AF focus point only.
this is my 4th canon camera, it is the best by far, very easy to use. the veiw screen is great. it does take some time to learn all the control, but after that it a breeze. love it!
Love this one. Bought one for the wife. Liked it so much I bought myself one. We don't share well. Awesome shutter speed. Amazing color and exposure (ISO).
I have been using mine for several months and love it. I have owned (or own) several high end DSLRs from Nikon, Olympus and Canon. My review is simple. You will be hard pressed to find a better camera in this price range offering the nubmer of megapixe
Awesome camera! This is my 1st DSLR, & I couldn't be more pleased. It's user friendly enough for a newbie to learn on. Like point & shoots it has auto modes to simplify things so you can snap pictures right away. That way you can experim
second camera I've owned in the canon digital SLR series. Much better than the 20D I last had, I'm sure I'll eventually move onto a higher camera but as a college student still in the phase of moving into the professional career, this is de
The Canon 50D is amazing. Im starting college and majoring in photography. I gave it some thought and decided to get a new camera. Before the 50D, I had a Canon xti. The xti was good for me to really just learn somethings out about the camera. Don
I've been involved with photography for over 10 years and am completely satisfied with this camera. I've owned several Canon SLR's prior to this one and they don't even compare. I ended up using my old rebel a few weeks after getting t
As an amateur I upgraded from a Digital Rebel to the EOS 50D. It is an excellent product and I am in the process of learning. I would recommend purchasing an EOS-50D training Video from Blue Crane Digital or Lark Books (via Amazon). Both are excellent sou
This is an amazing piece of hardware. I've never owned a digital camera until now. I did a great deal of research before purchasing this camera and have done even more reading once I purchased it. I've had a blast taking thousands of photos s
The crisp photos? The color correct photos? The ease of use? The Fab software that is packaged with it? The nice feel in your hand? Or, the intuitive menu. I love this unit. It is the best I have ever owned.
I've used Canon equipment and other brands, but Canon has always been my favorite, since the mid 60's. And I was an early adopter for the switch to digital, although I stuck with film for my serious work until the pixel count got high enough fo
Since I am not yet a photography professional I can only mention that this camera with its new features is spectacular! I love the results I am getting!

I love the Canon 50d. It is easy to use and takes great pics.
I bought this camera as an upgrade to my rebel xti, although the rebel xti was an exceptional camera. The Canon 50D blows it out of the water. it has superior build and functionality, great ISO range from 100-3200 expandable to 6400 and 12800 witch is a l
I bought the 50D some four months ago and took it to a couple of trips, family events and photo sessions. I am very happy with it. The picture quality is outstanding, especially portraits and low-light pictures. The features are extensive and pretty handy
Pros: This camera is great once you get the hang of using it you can take some great pictures. I have even been able to take some good pictures of the moon with the stock lens had to crop heavily but they look good. Cons: have not found any yet.
Good item and .....i don't know what should i say Just try it...you`ll not be disappointed,,, i like it deadly
having used the 20D for about 3 years now, the 50D is quite an improved extension of this franchise. Canon's excellent metering and control are quite evident. The new mode choices, the preview back, and particularly HOW Quiet it shoots is quite rewar
Fantastic camera ! Pricing in amazon is very good taking into account it is one of the most, if not the most reliable on-line merchant. I have created shorter version of Amazon shop for Canon50d: www.canon50d.us
This camera is breathtakingly outstanding! If you're seriously considering doing some professional photography but you're a little irked by the price tag of DSLR offerings ($2,000 for the body and above), then stop here. You will not be disapp
This is a great camera and well worth the wait as a trade up from my 10D. I purchased with the 28-135 IS lens, as this was a terrific value, and what's one more lens to play with. My previous experience with the 10D, made it easy to navigate the many
I received this product like all the products from amazon in excellent wrapping and in perfect condition.
I bought this camera for my son as a Christmas present. He was upgrading his camera body so he can take professional pictures of weddings and such. The word I get from him is that he absolutely loves this camera. It has many extra bells and whistles. We h
I've had a lot of Canon cameras over the years, both film and digital, SLR and compact, and this is undoubedly the best so far. Compared to the Digital Rebel series, the camera feels solid and robust and the results I've had so far, using the EF
This transaction was about my 4th order with Amazon and Adorama, and all went smooth. I ordered it 3 days before Christmas, but I got it on Christmas eve, thanks to Adorama's fantastic customer service and satisfaction. I did not expect to get it unt
