Customer Review :
exquisite photo camera! Video...hmmm : Canon EOS Rebel T2i 18 MP CMOS APS-C Digital SLR Camera with 3.0-Inch LCD (Body Only)
First, I have an total background in both photography and video. I was looking for a smaller camera to carry nearby that could also shoot video. When I heard about this one I conception it would be exquisite and it is good, very good But its does have its issues... I will try to keep this short and to the point.
Pros:
1. Superb image ability in both photos and video.
You can expect image ability comparable to a Canon Pro Dslr.
And I am not just saying that. I really did correlate it to our 1Ds MkIi.
This camera can produces usable images up to Iso 3200. Noise is there but they
do a good job of controlling it. With this said, it would be noted that there
really isn't that much unlikeness between a Canon 20D and the most expensive Dslr
for photos that will be displayed on the web or in quarterly size prints.
If you don't really need video then you can save yourself a lot of money and just
get a used 20D :) I really still have my traditional 20D as a backup.
2. Amazingly, the 18-55 kit lens turned out to be remarkably good. How good?
Well, within the center area of the frame it would give the more expensive lens a run for their money :)
Where it begins to break down is in angle detail but this is to be expected.
The focusing is also too noisy to use for video, If you are recording sound.
Update: if you are looking to upgrade the lens, I can recommended the Canon 15-85 Is.
3. The built in mic is also very good. Even on quarterly video cameras this is approximately a universal weakness.
If you are looking for a great mic I can propose the Rode Svm Stereo Video Mic.
Works very well with this camera, unlike the Audio Technica 24Cm. Its not cheap but good mics never are.
On all of these cameras hiss is a qoute to varying degrees especially when recording in a quiet environment.
The quiter the source the more you will hear it. The only way to get take off it is to use an external audio
narrative like the Zoom H4N or do it in software with something like SoundSoap.
4. Light weight compared to the higher end Canon bodies.
5. Wonderful low light video capability. With a fast lens f2.8 or lower even a Pro video camera can't touch it.
So if shooting in dark places is a big requirement then these cameras are the way to go.
Cons:
1. This is my biggest problem. I personally find the small body a lot more difficult to handle than the larger
Canon cameras we have. Maybe I am just use to the larger bodies but they are a lot more natural and easier
to work with. If you shoot pro or semi pro get the 7D just for this reason. The battery grip will help.
I have small hands so I hate to think how it would feel with person that has large hands. I would extremely recommend
you go somewhere and play with the T2i just to see how it feels in your hands.
Update: The Bg-E8 battery grip makes a big unlikeness in this regard!
2. For my personal taste I find the T2i to over expose a bit. This could be linked to the Peripheral Illumination
Correction, highlight Priority, etc. I normally just under expose by 1/3 of a stop to compensate for this.
3. My 2nd big frustration is the video. The video ability is superb this is not the issue. Where the qoute lies
is in really using the camera as a video camera. It has two big problems in this regard: the manual zoom and lack
of auto focus. It is approximately impossible to hold the camera steady and do a plane zoom in or out. Panning and zooming
at the same time is approximately impossible. A quarterly video camera have electronic zoom controls that allows you to zoom
in and out very smoothly. The other qoute is lack of auto focus. Sure you can refocus manually but again very difficult
to hold the camera steady and focus. Using the camera auto focus in video mode is potential but its really slow and
the mic will pick up the noise from the lens as it hunts for the focus. For me, this means, the camera is more useful
for recording short video clips not a full video shoot e.g. Shooting a whole wedding. I don't feel it can replace a regular
video camera as yet. For example, if you are reasoning of using this camera to shoot your kids running around, it can do it,
but there will be a lot of out of focus parts because it cannot track a branch like a quarterly video camera can and you
won't be able to adjust the focus quickly sufficient either.
Update: the video can work for the most part, If you shoot with the intent of editing the final video. A Slr will require
a bit more post production work than a quarterly video camera but the video ability will be superior. It works more like
a pro film camera they use in movies than the video cameras we know. But with that said, this camera still has
some real issues. Neither the shutter or aperture is continuous. You can only convert them in 1/3 intervals...enough to
cause a jump in exposure in many instances. On top of that you cannot convert whatever without recording the clicking
noise the dial makes when you convert the values. If you are using the mic in or on the camera this is a problem.
With this camera you have to setup a scene, setup your exposure, set your focus, and shoot the scene. Don't plan on
production any changes while you are shooting. So while the manual operate is nice its not usable while shooting a scene.
If you can live with the Cons. Its a great camera that offers image ability comparable to any high end Canon model.
