Review on Discontinued Canon EOS 50D DSLR Camera Body for Sale by Vedprakash Trilltight

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Improved my ability to photograph only

I sold one of my boats to buy this camera. I spent 5 months reading every review I could find and visiting camera shops in every state I visited. I tested every model and brand and got the opinion of different owners. In the end I decided I liked the features of the Canon range. I waited for the 7D to hit the shelves and tried it out. I loved the extra features, but more than I needed at the moment with my DSLR experience. I decided to spend the money I saved on good glass. When the 50D arrived, I took 300 photos the next day. The quality is excellent. I love sharpness and details. With the 15 megapixel camera, I can frame close-ups and still get pin-sharp images. I've decided to add an IS USM 70-300mm zoom to the included 28-135mm lens and I get the most beautiful nature shots with this camera. The kit lens looks a little cheap for a Canon branded product, but takes good photos. I have a lot to learn. If you're new to this level of cameras, the guide, while very detailed, will leave you wanting more. I decided to buy David Bush's book on the Canon 50D and it's like an instructor telling you about the capabilities of the camera. I would recommend this camera to everyone. I am very comfortable. Some useful points: 1) Although the camera is very big, the 50d lies very well in the hand. It's well designed and I wear it all day in the woods without a strap. 2) The eyecup positions your face directly on the LCD and the skin oils fall onto the screen. I fixed it with a Hoodman eyecup. 3) Speaking of the LCD, what a beauty. The quality and details are fantastic. Just make sure you have a good screen cover to protect it. 4) Oh shit, I could go on like this, but I won't. It was the right camera for me and I am happy with the purchase. Rewan was great. I saved a lot of money that I would have spent on accessories and lenses. Rewan was great. I saved a lot of money that I would have spent on accessories and lenses. Rewan was great.
