Review 5 of 17
Price Paid:
$0.00 Summary: Old but a good second or third body, also a camera that can stand an evil owner. Strengths: Strong metallic body and no inbuilt flash, this camera is better for hard conditions than newer plastic models.
Very reliable exposure metering. I liked that the camera have evaluating metering until you use the lock button, then it switches to spot metering.
Fast motor comparing to other bodies at the same price. Weaknesses: Bad autofocus, it needs a lot of light to lock on anything and it is slow.
Buttons are not as logic as on newer models. I really missed Canons wheel on the backplate, it was very complicated to compensate the exposure when using long lenses.
In manual exposure mode the camera don''t tell you how many steps you under/overcompensate from what the camera would have chosen.
The loudly sound, every animal nearer than 1000 km will run and hide. Similar Products Used: Canon EOS 1N HS, EOS 5 and EOS 100 Customer Service: No need.
