I have a digital canon camera rebel XTi and i know that is not fast enough for sports event, but at the same time i would like to take pictures of landscape. So any suggestions of what kind to buy and what model. Thanks!


Answer
The Canon 7D is capable of up to 8fps (frames per second) so that should suffice for your sports photography. Since its a "cropped sensor" camera any EF-S lenses you have can be used with it.

Read a review of the 7D here: http://www.shutterbug.net/equipmentreviews/proquality_digital_slrs/0310canon7D/index.html

For landscape photography the lens is more important. The Canon EF-S 10-22mm f3.5-4.5 USM will give you wide, sweeping landscapes. Just be sure to use a tripod for your landscape photography and understand how to achieve the maximum depth of field.

What digital cameras are best using existing light wihout flash after sunset?




T E


I have two digital cameras - panasonic tz3 and canon S2 IS - but I am not happy with the grainy picture quality I took using existing light indoor and outdoor after the sunset.

I see that the camera lens are not fast lens, like 1.8 or 1.4...

Hi, I'm assuming these are both point & shoot (P&S) cameras. Yes?

While these are both top quality brands of cameras (including P&S's), it is just the nature of P&S cameras that it is tough to get high quality photos in low light. Their electronics just aren't as sophisticated as bigger DSLRs and their processor sizes are smaller - so they can't store the same density of info as the bigger cams. They also have small flashes - so you're not able to cast more light to improve the image capture process.

One thing you can do to give yourself a fighting chance at improving quality in low light is to use a tripod. There's a much greater chance to enhance blur in low light. The tripod (or a monopod) would help take that issue off the table.

If your cameras have a "Night" or "Night Portrait" mode, have you tried them to see if that helps? Since you're playing with digital, and therefore not wasting money on film, also experiment using the "Portrait" mode. In portrait mode cameras typically open up the aperture to achieve a shallow depth of field (e.g, they make the aperture setting bigger to let in more light). Try using that (also with camera on stabilizing device) to see if that helps at all.

At some point, if you're serious about photog vs. just capturing fun memories in snapshots, think about moving up to a DSLR. It will help eliminate the problem you're experiencing with the P&S''s.

Take care...
