Just as good as the originals, at a sensible price.
No problem with delivery either - it fitted straight through the letter box.


Time came though when the 305d was a) getting very dated and b) I had reached the limits of what I could achieve with it so started looking for an upgrade. I admit that I am a Canon man so I discounted the Nikon range straight away (not saying they don't make excellent cameras they do, I just wanted a Canon). However, the 550d had just been released, the 60d was just around the corner then there was the 7d and a credit card with just enough headroom on it but a wife who would have potentially killed.
In the end I went for the 50d and I'm glad I did. The 550d is an excellent camera but despite its impresive spec it is still very much an entry level consumer camera. Resin body, less controls and customisation, lower spec view finder and autofocus points etc. Also, from the 400d onward canon saw fit to remove the secondary LCD screen that quickly shows at a glance the main camera settings. You have to fire up the main colour LCD to get this info (or look through the view finder) and this I find unforgivable. I use the secondary screen all the time and could not live without it.
The 7d was reallytoo expensive (or the wife not understanding enough) and at the time whilst the 60d was on the horizon the spec was unknown so the 50d it was and I'm am delighted with my choice.
It just feels so right in the hand, bigger that the xx0 series, more weighty but not unwieldy, beautifully built with a magnesium alloy body - it feels fairly bomb proof. The view finder is crystal clear, the autofocus fast and precise and the shutter action just a joy. This really is a semi pro camera in every respect and certainly has enough to keep me going for a few years.
The menus are well laid out and there is an excellent grid style quick menu available in most program settings that gives access to the main functions. There are also two programs that can be completely customised by the user so at the flick of the program dial I have instant access to my own custom monochrome and HDR programs.
All of this ofer course count for anything if the image quality wasn't up to par but I'm pleased to say its excellent. A few reviewers have commented they're a little disappointed with the results they are getting and I think this may be down to two factors. Firstly, as others have said you need a reasonable lens. I disagree that you need an L series lens (although it woul dbe nice) but certainly one of the newer EF-S IS lenses should be considered the bare minimum. Secondly, this camera takes a bit of work to get the most out of it. Yes the auto programs are pretty good but once you start venturing into the world of Av, Tv and full manual you need to understand the camera and its more advanced settings to get the best out of it. Once the camera is properly setup you can get awesome results with a fairly modest lens. The user manual is next to useless, I'd highly recommend getting one of the excellent after market books available and have a good dig around the advanced custom settings and really get a thorough grip on the beast.
Downsides, it is a little old now but still uses the latest Digic 4 processor, its 'only' 15 megapixels but lets not get hung up on the old numbers war, 15mp is plenty and noise is less well controlled above 400 iso compared to the 60d in particular but if you shoot in RAW then Lightroom et al can help tidy things up.
Finally a word on the 60d which of course is now out. Would I buy one if I had the opportunity? No, the 60d in my opinion is really the 650d - smaller than the 50d, resin body, more consumer than prosumer focussed - afterall Canon couldn't do anything else otherwise they would have taken sales away from their own 7d. They've effectively had to dumb the 60d down.
Overall if you're in the market for a superbly built, high quality DSLR that's still got a few years life in it (and don't need a movie function) I would highly recommend the 50d - you won't be disappointed.






Very good, I would recommend. Not bad value for money.
Sixth word

The first thing you notice is that this is not a small lightweight camera, but is a solid well built camera designed for serious use, yet despite it's size and weight it is still easy to hold and is comfortable to use, for those of you that have used the EOS 40D it has the same body shell as that, and has the advantage of using the same accessories as the EOS 40D as well.
The menu's are well laid out and easy to use making this camera easy to set up and use, the large LCD screen is bright and clear, and much higher resolution than previous EOS cameras, excellent for manual focusing in live view and checking the focus of pictures already taken.
Auto focus is lightning quick and accurate under normal conditions, and even in low light conditions it is still quick.
Cramming 15 megapixels resolution onto a small sensor causes problems with digital noise on many cameras, but not here, digital noise (graininess) is not apparent at all until you get into the highest ISO settings (ISO-100 to 3200 is available) and even then it is well controlled, there is also the option of setting a very high ISO-6400 or ISO-12800 setting but noise is apparent at such high settings and is best used in emergency only, and with it's 15mp resolution, even severely cropped or greatly enlarged pictures are crystal clear, colours are rendered accurately, even in difficult lighting conditions, when set to auto white balance, snow comes out as white snow, not bluish as on some other cameras that I have used, picture quality really is excellent, and has to be seen to be believed.
The built in flash is adequate for most situations but if you take a lot of flash photos and need a higher output flash, then one of canon's speedlight flashes can be used instead.
It is compatible with all canon EF and EFS lenses, and with canon's image stabilised lenses you get pin sharp pictures even in low light or with longer telephoto lenses. * (See below, for notes on buying lenses for this camera)
PRO's
Good all round performance.
Excellent picture quality.
High resolution with low noise.
Good low light performance.
Quick and accurate focusing and a very effective image stabilisation (with Canon's IS lenses)
Live view function.
Well built and strong with its metal body shell.
Takes the same accessories as the EOS 40D
Compatible with the latest high capacity CF cards.
Raw or Jpeg files are recorded, Raw+Jpeg simultaneous recording is also possible.
CON's
large and heavy.
Expensive.
No movie function.
No CF card supplied, so if you don't already have one, you will need to buy one before you can use it (with 15mp resolution the higher the capacity of the card the better).
In conclusion....
This is an excellent camera for the serious photographer and is a worthwhile upgrade from an older camera.
If you already own an EOS 40D then the difference in performance would not warrant the expense of an upgrade, but if you want a second body with higher resolution then this would be an ideal companion to your existing EOS 40D, as most of the functions are the same and you can use all your current accessories with it.
It would also be a good back up camera for a professional photographer, who does not want to go to the expense of a second full frame pro camera.
It is more expensive than some other "prosumer" cameras, but with the features and performance that you get, it is worth every penny.
Highly recommended.
Notes and advice on choosing lenses for this camera.
There is often confusion for people buying lenses for DSLR cameras (especially if they are new to DSLR's), as the stated focal length of a lens is not the same as the actual focal length that they will get on their camera, and most good camera shops have conversion charts to make this easier when advising their customers of the best lens to buy for their needs, but most online shops do not, hence the advice below.
Here's why........
When you buy a lens it has a stated focal length or range of focal lengths in the case of zoom lenses, (magnification) measured in millimeters, e.g. 100mm focal length.
The stated focal length on any lens is rated for 35mm film cameras and professional full frame DSLR cameras with a censor size of 35mm x 24mm, this is the standard rating for all SLR lenses.
The censor on this camera (and on most EOS DSLR cameras) is the "APS-C" sized censor with a measurement of 22.3mm x 14.9mm, this means that the effective focal length of the lens will be different to the stated focal length of any lens you buy when used with

It is a good-looking camera and the first things users notice is its solid build. Although it is one of their older cameras, with so much technical information and specification sites available, there is a little point to my going into them again here; the product information details on Amazon are good but I also recommend going elsewhere, e.g. Canon's own site, for in-depth specs. Although obviously written by partisan Canon employees, while researching punctiliously, I read it before buying and I cannot think of anything with which I disagree now that I have one.
The range of facilities on this camera is breath-takingly comprehensive as it is (or was when I bought it) on the lower level of their professional range.
I recommend it highly and, now that the price has dropped, it is a real bargain.

I am very pleased with the images I have taken with this camera which was an upgrade from a canon 20D - so all the optics and power sources fit.



OK, so keeping it simple- Is it worth the upgrade? Undoubtedly, no question about it. Build quality is solid, great viewfinder, big clear review screen, far better menu system, great photographic results and it feels like a professional camera.
Just after I bought my 50D the 60D came out and at first I was a bit brassed off, that was until I had a good look at the 60. I feel the 60D is a bit of a mish mash, creating a new niche as opposed to upgrading the already superb 20/30/40/50 series. If you want a DSLR that gives superb results at a price that won't have the bank manager knocking on your door, it's got to be the EOS 50D.
So are there any negatives? Just a small one, battery life isn't as good as the 30D - BUT, the new breed of 2000ma batteries are now available and are perfect for the 50D. Apart from this niggle, I cannot fault the camera at all.
I LOVE IT

At one time the company's policy was to restrict items in the "Electronic & Photo" section for delivery abroad, which was very frustrating.
I live in Cyprus with a U.K. address and bank account, and I found it almost impossible to purchase items for delivery direct to me without incurring expensive postal costs and goodwill of friends.
Not now, I have in the past month placed 3 orders and have had a delivery time of 5 days.
(Note: It must be ordered through amazon.co.uk seller's site to obtain this service.)
The Canon 50D is a very well built, high specification, semi-pro camera, and with 17 reviews at the moment and still counting, do you really want to read another one?
If you don't want the video function, then you can not go wrong with this model.
Also to get the ultimate results, then you will need to invest in the high specification lens to obtain the best from your images.
I use the Sigma EX DG range of lens and achieve first class results, it will take clear sharp images, what it won't do is to take the photographs that are award winning shots, that I'm afraid is up to you.
Another item which will help you is to fit a Canon BG-E2N Grip, this give better handling when a telephoto long lens is fitted also shooting in portrait.
You get what you pay for these days and with Canon you always get excellent value for money.


For me the fact you can program in a number of your own settings and then just turn the dial to C1 or C2 and your settings are ready to go. For example I do a lot of HDR photography so I have one lot of settings to take 3 photographs, 1 two stops under exposed, 1 two stops over exposed, 1 normal setting, along with a timer setting. In comparing this with the 400D (which I know is unfair) I would have to scroll through the menu and set it each time. In defence of the 400D it did have a small IR remote control and I wish the 50D had the same. A remote can be used on the 50D but I do a lot of fell walking and do not wish to muck about pluging stuff in and carrying more items about.
Had the camera for approx 6 months and am well pleased with it, the prints using a Canon MP 610 are excellent but other printers may also be able to equal this.
In short if you have no intention of going full frame I guess this is the best set up for your money and if you consider it expensive look at it as an investment... the lens mentioned above has risen in price by several hundred pounds since it was launched and with the state of the pound is likely to increase further !
