Pros: Price of the used. Solid structure. Infinite battery. Recommended.

Cons: The limits of the product when compared with modern SLRs.

Opinion: Bought on Ebay at a really small price, with very few photo shoots and kept very well. It was a pleasant discovery! For work I use two different brands and Canon has always been put aside although it is a high quality brand. At the reflex I added a cheap lens to which I will review, brand Yongnuo. What I liked most about this reflex, are the colors that even in raw, do not need special changes if you set custom parameters in the machine. A few AF points, but they do not create problems for me, indeed sometimes I prefer situations of this kind. Of course if we take into account the fact that she is 13 years old and we compare her to the most modern, something different or missing, you will notice. Nevertheless, you can get very beautiful, interesting, clean images, etc... just pay close attention to its use. This talk is valid for both a vintage reflex and a last-minute reflex! What I always say, especially to my clients, is not so much the arnese that one has but how it is used. I will try, as soon as I can, to upload more photographic examples with this reflex. I recommend it as a purchase and as a staple if you are looking for a valid product for your photographs. I got to see in the gallery a lot of images taken with great Canon lenses. Really a great machine that can give a lot of satisfaction.

Pros: ergonomics, burst, really impressive dynamic range.... colors, simple resolution but with good detail, good raw.

Cons: the display, noise from the 500 iso, autofocus sometimes swinging.

Opinion: I come from a 20D and I have to say that it has everything that in 20D made me unnerving, spot measurement, (a godsather for portraits), improved iso stops, picture style processing with sharpness and nice manageable contrasts, a sensor that keeps simple and not too "digital" resolutions in my photographs, very nice manageable raw files , focus points improved compared to the 20D, display finally larger and well readable (I do not know why everyone discriminates against it and find it horrible), a body that has a beautiful design and well robust, very comfortable and with well sliding rings, iso 1600 usable if you correct the noise well ... obviously the 8 megapixels give me some limitations in crop, but for someone like me carves out the shots little, I don't know how much of a problem it can be, the autofocus is completely improveable, but after all, since I don't take sports photography I don't get too many kidneys.

Pros: Excellent yield of the pictures, in either JPEG or RAW really need very little pp.rnResa colors really ideale.rnFiltro absolutely not invasivo.rnBatteria almost infinita.rnIndistruttibile.rnAffidabile.

Cons: Yield at high iso ENOUGH. The few MPs (8.2) are not a problem (unless you're fanatics crop!)

Opinion: With good optics (24-105, 70-200 f4 is 35 and Sigma Art) returns the image as the gallery below riportata.rnhttp: //www.juzaphoto.com/m_me.php? Pg = 93526 & l = itrnrnI colors, the yield to iso "human", the reliability in any condition (from the heat of Rajasthan in May, the sand of the desert in Africa, the humidity of Victoria Falls) make it, today, a second body at a phenomenal price that is, it used, from 100 to 200 euro. Frankly I do not know that you could buy a new body that figure ... rnrnPer personal experience: a serving 30d 150 € today? RnRajastan, second day. Travel dreamed for years.

Pros: Overall quality of the camera body, right compromise between handling and ruggedness, good quality files in normal shooting conditions

Cons: Today is deprived of many basic functions

Opinion: I got this camera from 2006 to 2009, I made memorable shots, I can say that I format with this camera, I have reluctantly discarded at the end of 2009 to monetize in order to buy the 5D Mk II. I can say that pretty much ready files provided in normal shooting conditions, some problems with the management of the white balance. Today is now obsolete as a second body but I still think consigliabilissima.

Pros: Easy handling, intuitive semi pro, robustness

Cons: Absent sensor cleaning, noise from ISO 600 rather intrusive,

Opinion: I used it for 6 years and I must say that I enjoyed it a lot. Easy to set up, produces jpg almost ready to use (easy to process without compromising them with artifacts), for amateur photography evolved a great tool, burst reasonable (considering the performance of today), sturdy and well made. Great for those who want to start with a semipro a few years ago, without requiring digit crazy. The only downside was the noise, I think it is better to avoid going above ISO 400. The dynamic range is really high level

Pros: Quality of files, dynamic range, ISO 1600 can be used, battery life, weight and ergonomics of the body.

Cons: AF, LCD screen, no LV, resolution, absence of "sgrullasensore."

Opinion: The 30D is definitely one of the best APS-C manufactured by Canon has a good image quality, a good dynamic range and the ability to use a little 'PP also ISO 1600. In short, from the point of view of IQ you can not complain: the 8MP sensor does a great job and provides files that would normally require little PP. Very good also the recovery of the shadows (definitely higher than that of 7D). In addition, a battery that lasts forever (I came to make 2000 shots without refilling!) And the classic Canon ergonomics that puts everything at your fingertips. Defects: the main, for me, was the AF. I do not know if my model (got it used) had some flaw in most, but apart from some imprecision in One Shot (greater in lateral points, of course, but also the central was not so sure) as soon as evening fell was literally to bed, and guess the fire was really an adventure. In this case weighed so the absence of LV (replaced with the 40D) that could have helped not a little at least for static subjects. The LCD screen, then it is more useful to look at the histogram to realize the real quality of the shot. Missing then sgrullasensore. Finally, the resolution: 8MP are clearly more than enough, but if there is a need to crop a shot can be narrowly limited. In any case, we are talking about a machine that, the second hand market, now costs little (2-300 euro) and still offers very much.

Pros: Robust, not overly large, easy to use.

Cons: Gets dirty easily, AF old but functional, small LCD.

Opinion: I have the 30D for about 2 years jack used to replace the 450D which was too small for my mani.La find an excellent machine for macro landscapes and portraits with low noise and almost ready file that nacessitano a few ritocchi.IL sensor with low-density of pixels (8 MP) produces images with very little noise at ISO 800-medium-high 1600.Secondo me a very valuable machine to start photographing ....

Pros: Robust, semi-pro features, battery life, value for money, digital noise content.

Cons: LCD 2.5 "low resolution, no live view, no sensor cleaning.

Opinion: At a cost of 250/300 euro you bring home a semi-professional SLR superior to many new entry-level SLR. The sensor aps-c 8.2 mpx provides excellent file ready to use with digital noise very low. The body is very sturdy, is ergonomically designed with magnesium alloy. The AF system is a typical house of Canon's 9-point AF with center cross-point only (inherited from 20d), only the 40-50d has been updated with 9 cross type points. Is not particularly suited for action photography. Like all technology products feel the weight of years, the monitor is small with little resolution ... also lacks live view, very convenient tool for macro photography.

Pros: Sturdy and reliable, excellent image quality, extremely clean files generated even at high ISO, excellent dynamic range, ergonomics, ease of use, battery life.

Cons: Displays with poor resolution, ISO invisible (visible only after pressing a key).

Opinion: The 30D is my current SLR, accompanied me in all my travels in Nepal, Ladakh, India, Patagonia, Greece, Turkey, Morocco, as well as the mountains that usually attend. What I appreciate most about this camera is the extreme robustness and consistency of performance, even in extreme conditions (cold, heat, humidity dust). Furthermore, it is relatively lightweight and compact and has, as all Canon, a good ergonomic use. Another point in its favor is the extreme cleanliness of the files can also be used in high iso. The metering system is balanced although personally I keep almost always set a +1 / 3. The Af is honest, it is not lightning but it is difficult to miss a shot. Show the string action in the photos but it is understandable given the age of the system (today is obviously better). The dynamic range is very high and provides excellent performance even in critical light conditions. The battery life is great (about 800 shots), a great advantage on long trips where there is little chance of charging. The only faults (venial sins) is a really poor display as the definition and the lack of visualization of the iso (to see them you have to press a button). I use it exclusively in RAW so the quality of the jpeg, which is still good, is not a priority for me. In over 4 years of hard use has never experienced a problem and for me this is his real strength. If you want a camera robust, reliable and excellent image quality, the 30D is your ideal companion.

Pros: High ISO usabilissimi, weight and ergonomics, battery endless.

Cons: Monitor

Opinion: It 'was my first SLR, companion of many adventures, I was always satisfied in any photographic situation. Churning file almost ready, and I took no worries at 1600 and sometimes in 3200iso (h1), the only flaws are the high distance between the focus and the small rear monitor. The absence of "modern features" such as live view and video do not play in his favor, but were introduced in later models. strategic recommended for beginners and has a limited budget.

Pros: Lightweight, durable, excellent dynamic range, excellent even at high ISO

Cons: small screen, AF is not always accurate.

Opinion: I had and used the 30D for several years, with the 30D I made some memorable shots, the AF was good, not like my current 7D, but it was efficient, the shots that I got with the 30D needed a few touches and were ready, thanks to the density of small sensor that was really great. It is definitely one of the best Canon APS-C that you can still find on the used market for a few hundred euro, suitable for a start!
