best canon digital camera 2012 review image
1Anonymous
I know the Canon 5D mark III is supposed to be the best camera out there and the Nikon D800 almost matches it, but I don't have 3000 dollars to spend.
So on a smaller, scale say 600-700 dollars,
would you say that the Nikon d3500 or the Canon T3 is better?
I like the 7- 9-blade diaphragm that Nikon offers opposed to the 6- 8- of Canon. But I hear that Nikon has too much magenta in their resolutions or too much yellow in the LCD.
Which has more aperture versatility and accurate shutter speed?
For outdoor/landscape, night, and long exposure photography, and natural looking portraits, which brand is better?
Any recommendations for models by each brand? Like, is it really worth it to get the T3i for such and such more dollars instead of the T3?
Thanks
Whoops- D3200
Answer
First, repeat this 100 times: "It isn't the camera its the photographer." Any DSLR in capable hands will produce good results. Your knowledge of Light, Composition, Exposure and Depth of Field and your skill in using that knowledge will determine the quality of the results.
A DSLR doesn't have "aperture versatility". That is a function of the lens. Nikon and Canon offer a wide variety of lenses with different maximum apertures. The T3 and D3200 both come with an 18-55mm f3.5-5.6 zoom lens. Both manufacturers offer a more expensive 17-55mm f2.8 zoom as an alternative to the standard 18-55mm zoom.
Since all DSLR shutters are electronically controlled its safe to say any make and model will have an accurate shutter speed.
Most beginner photographs use the 18-55mm zoom for outdoor photography. The 18mm end of the standard 18-55mm zoom is suitable for landscapes although anyone serious about landscape photography will eventually want an even wider lens (10mm, 12mm, etc.) and a good tripod.
Natural looking portraits are a result of the photographer's skill in using good lighting and posing techniques and in knowing what lens to use. The make and model of camera is irrelevant.
Long exposure photography requires a tripod and, if done during daylight hours, a Neutral Density (ND) filter.
The Canon T3 is their most basic entry-level DSLR. The Canon T4i when fitted with one of the two available Canon STM lenses (40mm and 18-135mm) will allow for auto focus during video. The T3, T2i and T3i don't have that feature/benefit.
The Sony SLT A65 allows for continuous, full-time, phase-detect auto focus whether you're shooting still images or full 1080p HD video with any AF lens in the Sony lineup. The Technical Image Press Association (TIPA) chose the A65 as their 2012 Top DSLR - Advanced.
The Pentax K-30 has a weather-sealed body and comes with a weather-sealed 18-55mm zoom lens. This makes it usable in the rain or in very dusty conditions that would damage the comparably priced models from Sony, Canon and Nikon.
At http://www.digital-slr-guide.com you can find comparisons of various makes and models of DSLR cameras. Compare them feature by feature.
You'll also find excellent reviews at http://www.imaging-resource.com and at http://www.dpreview.com
Ignore sites that only offer user reviews.
Visit a camera store and physically handle each make and model. One will just "feel" better as you handle it. If that particular models has all the features you want then its the one to buy.
Just remember this: "It isn't the camera its the photographer." It won't matter if you pay $500.00 or $5,000.00 for a camera if you aren't knowledgeable about Light, Composition, Exposure and Depth of Field and, through practice, skilled in their use you'll get the same results regardless of how much you pay for the camera.

What's the best camcorder for 2012 from consumer review and every ones else in the $250 to $325 out there in 2012?
Answer
HD Camcorders and DSLR Cameras interpolate the video, which means of every 25 frames of video, 4 or 5 frames are taken by the lens assembly; the other frames in between these are filled in by the camcorder inner circuitry, thus giving you not true video. It looks like this -one frame from the lens assembly, 7or 8 from the electronic circuitry, one frame from the lens assembly, 7or 8 from the electronic circuitry, one frame from the lens assembly, 7or 8 from the electronic circuitry, one frame from the lens assembly, 7or 8 from the electronic circuitry, from front to back of the video. Near impossible to edit, even when you have the Multi port processor computer with the big 1GB Graphics card and a Sound card that is required to edit, view, watch and work with the files these camcorders produce.
Consumer Level HD Camcorders and DSLR Cameras have 4 problems. 1) Blurry, fuzzy, out of focus areas closely around people in videos taken by consumer level HD camcorders. 2) Any movement, even a wave or lifting an arm, while in front of a recording Consumer Level HD Camcorder and DSLR Cameras, results in screen ghosts and artifacts being left on the video track, following the movement. Makes for bad video, sports videos are unwatchable. 3) These Consumer Level HD Camcorders and DSLR Cameras all have a habit of the transferred to computer files are something you need to convert, thus losing your HD quality, to work with your editing software. 4) Mandatory maximum record times - 1 hour, 30 minutes, 8 minutes, 3 minutes â four different times advertised as maximum record time for some Consumer Level HD Camcorders and DSLR Cameras. No event I have ever been to is that short. Either take multiple camcorders and DSLR Cameras or pack up with out getting the end of the event on video.
MiniDV is currently the most popular format for consumer digital camcorders. MiniDV camcorders are typically more affordable than their HDD and DVD counterparts. Each MiniDV tape will typically hold an hour of footage at normal recording speed and quality. MiniDV tapes are available for purchase at not only electronic and camera stores, but also at drugs stores and grocery stores, making them easy to find while your on vacation. There are literally hundreds of MiniDV camcorders available; both in standard and high-definition. And add the fact that to get a HD camcorder that could produce better video quality footage, one would have to spend in excess of $3500 for that camcorder that could produce higher quality video.http://simplevideoediting.com/learn/part1_camcorder_choices.htm
