  | sent on 18 Novembre 2024 Pros: It has good ergonomics, Picture Style, ease in finding spare parts, possibility to register the product even in 2024, excellent Canon assistance, depth of field button Cons: I didn't find any major flaws Opinion: I recently took this camera on EBay to try the Picture Style, and although my purchase has the autofocus to repair and the viewfinder to replace (you don't read the information on shutter speeds etc ..) I used it automatically looking at the parameters on the LCD screen setting iso and aperture and then going back to the viewfinder and shooting, despite this what the Picture Style setting in monochrome gave me with the possibility of filters and other personal adjustments gave me enormous satisfaction, I like this camera very much, compared to the Sony A330 purchased previously it lacks the mobile screen comfortable for the street but it gives just as many good photos with the additional possibility of various adjustments thanks to the Canon program, The dial above the shutter button also makes it ergonomically more comfortable |
 | sent on 07 Marzo 2024 Pros: practical, light, immediate Cons: maybe a little small for my hands, ISO settings range Opinion: It is a wild card to carry with you with an all-rounder (such as 24/70 EF or an 18/200 or similar); Lightweight, practical, long-lasting batteries. In my opinion better than the latest entry level. It is at its best with good optics. I think it has the sensor of the larger aps-c 7D and it comes out with some very good images. For those with large hands it is not very comfortable ... But you get used to everything. I use it as a 3rd body (after the 5D III and the 6D), working at rather high sensitivities (1600-4000); The files of the 550 obviously suffer from a bit of noise but everything can be remedied with post production. I'm selling it because I'd like to switch to the 7D... But now it's hard to sell "classic" SLRs. |
  | sent on 02 Maggio 2023 Pros: Value for money Cons: Nothing if you know what you are buying Opinion: I took it a couple of years ago to introduce my son to photography. For me, the best value for money for used Canon aps-c for those who want to start with less than 200 euros. To have a sensor that is a minimum better you have to spend about twice as much and switch to the 750D. It has everything you need, it is compact and lightweight. Simple to use. To be coupled with the Tamron 17-50mm or EF50mm STM / EF40mm STM / EF-S 24mm STM zoom if you prefer fixed (always with a view to low cost a lot of yield). |
 | sent on 02 Maggio 2023 Pros: All if you know what you buy. Cons: No one if you know what you buy. Opinion: Purchased used for a hundred euros after the drowning of the 4000d, the feeling it gave me was immediately of reliability and robustness. It has a respectable dynamic range for an amateur photographer, and the availability of the pieces, in my opinion, make it go up a level. It immediately gives very beautiful and detailed photos, obviously at high ISO it suffers a lot of noise, but with due care and a little post production, you can really get wonderful results. Magic lantern runs wonderfully and helps a lot in some conditions. If it had the posable display, it would have been the perfect camera. |

 | sent on 23 Aprile 2023 Pros: 7d sensor, dynamic / detail range, color rendering, value for money, light, excellent jpg Cons: Slightly plasticy Opinion: The 550d is an advanced amateur camera, clearly superior to the entry level 1000 series including 1200 and 1300 (which derive precisely from the 550) made in Taiwan, the 550 came out 3 years earlier, already mounts the DIGIC 4, has pro functions such as mirror lock up and is made in japan as the 'most series' machines, already from this it is clear which lens Canon intended to approach ... The body is solid, well assembled while maintaining a perceived more plasticous than the upper series (60d / 70d etc ..) combined with the 18-55 IS you immediately get beautiful photos, sharp, with bright colors in typical canon style well balanced and detailed, ISO hold up to 1600 excellent. An excellent machine to start but also for the amateur photographer who wants a second light body for street or otherwise convenient to carry around at a price used today really super, vote 9 |
 | sent on 01 Marzo 2018 Pros: Magic Lantern that runs very well above, colors, robustness even if it is not tropicalized, perfect size and low weight to carry it everywhere, very manageable noise with magic lantern and using multiples of 80. Cons: For me, nobody. Opinion: It may seem strange, but since I installed magic lantern on my 550d, my love for my SLR has increased a lot. Try to believe: test the 550d using the multiples of 80, then from 160 ISO upwards and you will notice that the situations of serious noise will be reduced to a minimum. Maybe it's a risky phrase but I did a test of daily photos with a 5d mark II and a 550d, using the same lens and same settings and 2 professional photographers friends, they could not recognize the origin of the two photos. This SLR is exceptional. Needless to talk about 600d 650d 700d 750d ... because in reality after 2010-11 there were very few changes to entry level level, semi pro. There were only minor news that are almost never used, such as NFC, Wi-Fi, GPS, etc. So I recommend it to all those who want to start and to those who want a valid second body. Install magic lantern immediately to take advantage of the infinite settings added and taken taken. In conclusion I wanted to say that, tested with an objective of the L series, qhis reflex makes it really breathless ... so my advice is: take it at prices now torn and with the money saved invest in a high quality lens and a battery grip. And it will be just pure fun! |
 | sent on 24 Ottobre 2016 Pros: Ease of use, speed, weight, quality / price ratio Cons: Autofocus, high ISO seal Opinion: It seems a review copy of the other, well, in part it is. rnMa the vote that I gave is 9, because when I passed by this machine current, a bit 'to tear it scesa.rnE' easy to use and great to gain experience taking out some beautiful pictures. They feel very much in the dark limits (up to 800 ok, besides suffering), but for what it costs used with any lens, I would say that more can not pretendere.rnLa speed with which the carousel with the parameters after having taken hand is really nice. |
 | sent on 06 Maggio 2016 Pros: Easy to use; Lightweight and versatile, well-defined screen; yet generous and valuable sensor; Tight up to ISO 1600 (require post processing), Rich in accessories, used excellent price, just over 200 Euros full of batteries etc. 1080P video Cons: Burst slow and Buffer really little one, Combinations of buttons sometimes awkward to use, in the Settings menu is not rich because the 600/650/700 and 100DrnImpostazione Iso successes only to full-stop, no middle ground as ISO125 / 160/320 etc. Opinion: really excellent machine, used for landscapes, street, black and white and fauna. After watching closely made Iso and color sensor that is closest to that of the older sister 7D, and this was why I had chosen only the price actually used concorrenziale.rnAl current price just over 200 euro is a real deal, very rewarding and a yield better than XX0D came after lei.rnColori excellent, focusing with 9 points and very good quality of buona.rnSotituita files just now to pass to the eldest sister 7D. |
 | sent on 27 Aprile 2015 Pros: ease 'of use, sensor generous, good to gain experience Cons: personally only noise at high ISO Opinion: I own this car since 2011 and to date never a problem to be one, certainly compared to a fullframe the difference is, but only in low light, in fact comparing the photos with a 5d mark 3 shot in broad daylight the 550d is defended very bene.rnNaturalmente then the difference is the goals, display very well established although under the direct light and 'almost inutilizzabil. |
 | sent on 26 Dicembre 2014 Pros: Excellent for use amateur Cons: Low resistance to noise Opinion: C "Landscape", etc.). Alternatively you quietly a minimum of PP.rnrnEssendo, then, a machine "dated", the 550D loses today the comparison with the other cameras and amateur, that in terms of functionality are perhaps higher, in particular for the presence of spherical display, touch screen, HDR-on-camera, ecc.rnA level of image quality, however, at least on paper the 550D is still a competitive car, at least in respect of the bigger range XXXD (even DxOMark believes the yield sensor 550D higher than the 700D: http://www.dxomark.com/Cameras/Compare/Side-by-side/Canon-EOS-700D-versus-Canon-EOS-550D___870_645).rnrnIn Finally, once you're comfortable with the settings, and combined with the right optics, the Canon 550D is a great gem, ideal if you approach it for the first time in the world of digital SLR cameras. Personally I have always appreciated and, although I are attempting bodies decidedly higher performance as the 7DmkII and 6D, I think I keep it with me again for a while ', downgradingthe maximum to the second machine body. |
 | sent on 24 Marzo 2014 Pros: 7D sensor, compactness, price / performance ratio. Cons: Burst, auto focus and ISO sensitivity from entry-level. Opinion: It 's my first SLR and I can tell that offers many opportunities to begin to specialize and, I preferred to 1100D for both compactness for both the sensor and I was satisfied. Approaches to the professional world and remains a gem always at mano.rnAd today and perhaps' only surpassed by the 100D but I think too small and lacks certain features that the 550D offers instead. This for me is the best choice to start even now (2014) and maybe keep as a second body macchina.rn |
 | sent on 22 Febbraio 2014 Pros: Easy to use, compact and reasonable price. Cons: For amateur use is otherwise a great purchase is that the burst autofocus are those of an entry-level. Opinion: It 's my first SLR and a compact camera is all coming from another world.The its functionality is simple and intuitive, and for those who approach this passion is a good buy because she also has some great prestazioni.Peso and dimensions are in accordance with I've decorated with battery grip and I must say that lends itself more manegevole especially in vertical shots and duration of batteria.Uso only L-series lenses then its 18mgpx are exploited to the conclusion dovere.In advice for beginners is to be as in my case to keep it as a second body. |
 | sent on 01 Ottobre 2013 Pros: good image quality in the context of a reduced size (APSC), small size relative to the line xxD and higher, held iso acceptable, excellent value for money especially in used, self-cleaning sensor, weight Cons: gust, autofocus are fine for normal use but forget to go photo hunting or sports photography with this machine, or better you can do it every time, but for use in that branch of photography are recommended other modelli.rn18 megapixel are too many, in my opinion, the ideal would be 16 as nikonrn Opinion: It 'was my first SLR, which was acquired in August 2012 after more than a year of use I can say that was a great acquisto.rnper a person who enters the world of photography or videomaking this machine offers all the possibilities, of course with the its limiti.rnrnL 'autofocus is fast enough for normal use that does not include photographic hunting or sports photography where suffers a little bit, in difficult lighting conditions sometimes find it hard to make fuoco.Iso acceptable up to 800, as well as the photo must be processed to eliminate the rumore.rnrnper regard to the weight and bulk is great, if it were too small body as you can buy a battery grip to parte.rnrnPiena software compatibility magic lantern that adds a number of features not little, as the focus peaking, bracketing, interval timer, bulb set at will (you choose the time), video in hdr absolutely eccrnrnConsiglio this machine instead 600d/650d/700d because the savings are significant, the machines have subsequent improvements minimum,on display .. with the money saved you can buy good optics, the 18-135 I lasted two months and then I was forced to sell it for the dissatisfaction |
 | sent on 25 Agosto 2013 Pros: possibility of using the live view for shooting in difficult conditions or for particular perspectives. APS-C sensor which enlarges the subject for the naturalist. Affordable considered the machine features. Cons: only monitor and video shooting with manual focus. compared to 450 the keys are so many, near and crushed, it affects each adjustment. white balance, as in 450, always tends toward blue shades, so in many cases to monitor appear underexposed images or poor, this is set to automatic balancing with daylight. for people like me who uses the machine for birds moving 3.7 fps (6 raw) are often a limit. the shutter button, which is also crushed a lot, maybe it would be better in a more advanced position and not so high, considering the small size of the grip, suitable for those with smaller hands. Opinion: I switched to eos 550d from 450 as is normal: most amount of pixels, video recording, live view, greater autonomy, are the reasons that convinced me to buy. He definitely has a good quality / price ratio. Overall I consider it a good camera, light, simple, and who does his job very well, although for particular genres of photography you notice certain limits. |
 | sent on 08 Giugno 2013 Pros: the price (especially used); possibility of making video in full-HD, for those who like to tinker, one of the few compatible with the alternative firmware MagicLantern, especially useful for those who make videos, excellent screen, intuitive menu and easy access Cons: the ISO, 800 is still decent, 1600 on rare occasions, as well as deprecated, without battery grip is not very easy to handle mono sound recording; flurry very low Opinion: deliberately ignoring the video aspects, as a function that do not even use, this is my first SLR, and I can only speak well. with a battery grip is almost perfect, as well as increase autonomy (I do not remember the last time I recharged), makes it much more maneggevola and the grip is more secure. the only flaw in comparison to younger sisters (600 and 650D) is the screen is not adjustable, useful in shooting conditions a bit "strange", touch and various tweaks in the room you are cute, but I think they are so useful. the image quality is not bad, but do not to crop too much. I would recommend as the first reflex, as something more than the entry-level, and allows you to learn all the basic rules of photography |
 | sent on 16 Aprile 2013 Pros: Jpg file fine also without many compromises, excellent screen, bright viewfinder, five prong stop automatically. Cons: Layout of the controls is not excellent for people using Canon to another level, every now and then burns the whites at high iso, max 1600 can be used with RAW, the body too plasticky. Opinion: I used this camera as a second body Pairing a canon 40d, when I sold the glorious canon 40 I noticed that the files that produced the 550 erno best in every respect, but the body was always that of an entry level, I made about 4000 shots, sport and ceremony, I have to talk about it very well, a machine that has always worked very well, small adjustment settings can get out of high quality jpg, I have always preferred the raw jpg files but if you do not wants to waste time going well already così.rnSi is an entry level I have to say well done to the layout of some command, which by the way Canon has also reported on 6D, (and who does not like me) are missing about 4 pulsanti.rnIl sensor responds well, at least I felt good up to a max of +2 stops exposure at 800 iso, after the fraying of color took the soppravvento.rnChe say is optimal for travel photos qulsiasi type, |
 | sent on 25 Febbraio 2013 Pros: Car with excellent handling and a very intuitive menu that allows good customization. A jack of all trades "Rebel" in name and in fact. Cons: Honestly there I find a few, but if you need that little bit extra that may not give it to you. Exceeded by 600 and 650 by a pair of blowjobs in a bit more than the age '. As affezionarcisi ... Opinion: The lightweight and compact body make it easy to carry in a very bad condition, and if you're around for days with luggage quite heavy. With good optics does its job very well in most conditions. Perhaps it is not suitable for all types of photography, but if you have not absurd claims from an object of this price range is definitely a good one macchina.rnPer the noise and the search does not need perfection to express is an exceptional means that rarely betrays aspettative.rnPersonalmente do not think that will replace short because it continues to give me satisfaction. |
 | sent on 13 Febbraio 2013 Pros: Price, same sensor of the "big sister" 7D Cons: as all the entry level suffers from the high iso Opinion: An entry-level camera, there should not expect miracles, but it can give a lot, especially to beginners. It 'was my first SLR, I still have it, and before I interessassi to a greater degree in photography has been my inseparable. Compact and lightweight, with its 18-55 took her everywhere and I was taking hundreds of pictures to repeat, I think there is no better way to approach the fotografia.rnPer all those who are approaching this magical world, it is essential to remember that to take great pictures it is essential to have a super super reflex and goals, just have a good eye and imagination! Just look at the pictures below the 550 to be believed! |
 | sent on 13 Febbraio 2013 Pros: price, 7d sensor, weight and size Cons: poor performance at ISO 800 and higher burst slow Opinion: I use the 550d for a year and I must say I'm in love with this camera body. I'm doing a bit of everything and I've never felt the desire to have something more (of course I'm talking about use definitely not professional). When combined with good targets provides high quality images at the level of the sisters more expensive. As for me I always carry it with me on trips as diverse as weight size and versatility make it ideal for landscape photography and travel reportage. Many complain about the construction of plasticaccia calling ... it is true, however, is a lady plasticaccia in a year not even a scratch anywhere using it and keeping it in your backpack tossed here and there ...

 | sent on 16 Dicembre 2012 Pros: quality / price unbeatable, full HD video, ergonomics, dedicated keys, high degree of customization, 3.0 "LCD 1.040K points Cons: poor performance at high ISO, 9-point AF (only the center point is not a problem) Opinion: To learn how I bought the 550 in 2010 was the top of the entry level, and despite past 3 years now, the improvements made to the sisters, are almost insignificant except for the new processor and some optional valid. If you know the tame and use optical or old L series lenses (like Zeiss) with adapter, the results are astonishing when compared with machines that cost 4 times as much. The big gap and 'in the noise, Feature This after 800 ISO. In essence, this body does not go selling even if you switch to FF, can 'return useful for sport (see crop x1, 6) using the SD 300x the burst is max 3.7 fps. For ease of handling / weight can 'be carried safely in a relaxing holiday with a 18-200 as all do, without having to compromise when you want to click the "decent". Fabio Forgetta |
 | sent on 25 Novembre 2012 Pros: sensor performance, customization interface, large LCD screen, ease of use, does not have the adjustable screen (positive note for me this manancanza) battery life, dedicated ISO button Cons: slow burst, noise at 800 ISO, only reads SD, is plastic (though it would partially steel), grip ridiculous, too light, long exposures of the raw file is processed in a car with a considerable waiting (maybe only mine is that) DOES NOT HAVE THE MONOCHROME DISPLAY. Opinion: I have the 550D for about a week, I come from a 350D, however, noticing a jump exponentially over its older sister but less powerful, but I did enjoy a period of 2 months to get hold of other cars and try to make me a general idea, (I've got to try patience with a 5D mkIII, 50-60D, 350-400-450D, 7D) notando primarily a high quality shooting, far from obvious 5D mkIII but identical to the 7D and 60D ( useless to argue with those who are mad to say that they are different, we see that the seller has listened too live without trying), but despite their merits, defects are there and you see how! the ISO, the noise can be seen in black from 400, but only if you look carefully, 800 iso appears to 1600 starts filling pores, in 3200 almost unbearable, just a blast of noise resolves, but compromises the detail . Il grip is quite to forget, tiny comfortable at all, not the slightest sense of safety and reliability in the house should rival Canon the idea of building entry level camera bodies slightly larger and more robust, but most should decide to put 300350D as in the monochrome display, although at the moment it seems (excluding the question magnesium housing for the 50D), the only substantial difference between entry level and a semipro (although below are other details, sometimes very little underlined). LA decision to only SD card reader does not seem a nice touch, certainly more comfortable, but I preferred the CF burst to forget , 3.7 fps is nothing, the sound of the shot made from the entry level is sometimes unbearable, all in all for the price is not a bad car, in fact I recommend it to those who want something more than just a low-end entry level, and pointing to something that looks more like a link between amateur and semi-professional. |
 | sent on 13 Novembre 2012 Pros: Large amount 'of detail especially in Raw, quality' image, perfect for an amateur Cons: Suffers from Iso 1600 onwards, not exceptional grip Opinion: I used this camera for more 'than a year and has given me great satisfaction, portable, lightweight, high quality' image and great workability 'photos. Great details in shooting raw, jpeg a more soft, suffers a high iso, iso that does not regulate third stop. As written in the advantages of a good SLR for beginners but also for an amateur already more advanced. |
 | sent on 31 Agosto 2012 Pros: Great value for money, sensor and processor of high quality, ergonomic, lightweight and robust, compatible with the FW Magic Lantern.rn Cons: Suffers burst and the focus in low light. Opinion: Excellent camera, a step above other entry level, if combined with good optics does not fear comparison with other semi-pro higher end of which the internal processor and sensor. If you shoot in bursts in RAW + Jpeg is a bit slow, but if you select only a 18MP Jpeg even with a good Class 10 card is not bad. As for the iso, personally I almost never go above 800, but I happened to shoot to 1600 and you can see its limitations. Also good in video mode. Council-Battery Grip changes for the better ergonomics of the camera body. With the release of the 650D the 550D has dropped a bit in price, and you can get a good deal on the new, I recommend it. |
 | sent on 19 Giugno 2012 Pros: Quality / Price - ability to use both EF EFS - shoot in RAW - excellent images both with the basic objectives with professional lenses - lightweight body, manageable and pleasant grip - use high ISO up to 3200 - attack goals steel - protection against dust - countless customizations for a entry level body. Cons: Body robust little machine - manual focus selection button slow and easy to reach while shooting - a few shots per second - at the time nothing more. Opinion: I bought this camera body kit with 18-55 IS II and 55-250 IS II. With both goals I noticed that the pictures come out very well if you fall in the excellent range of objectives, unfortunately I lack the test with a real bright lens. After six months of use and after having honed knowledge on photographic technique, just this weekend I was able to pull out the images really beautiful. I am very happy to have bought this car, but I do not deny that in the future buy a FF. Forthcoming I want to see the difference with the 650D, especially for the sensor "hybrid" and the orientation features. I would highly recommend it especially after the release of the 650D just those who want to spend relatively little and have a great product in hand. Of course, to consider the "used guaranteed" a model like the 50D or 60D, always reported to the budget. |
 | sent on 26 Settembre 2011 Pros: very good price-performance video, microphone jack jack. Cons: screen does not swivel, the focus in video mode very uncomfortable, heating CCD not suitable for long shots because degrades the image so they say. Audio microphone discrete (obvious) Opinion: Finally you can produce short low cost cinema style with great depth of field with a control completo.La choice of optics and of course the massismo you can have in the cinema. A toy that 10 years ago was not even imaginable at these prices. A product that can give a hard time to several cameras. I state that the D5 is more suitable for the video but we are on other expenses. |
 | sent on 21 Settembre 2011 Pros: Good quality / price ratio, full HD video, SLR entry level to a higher grade, lightweight and compact. Cons: Digital sensor noise actually sfuttabile up to ISO-1600 (max. available in machine ISO-12800 [seems ironic]) Opinion: It 's my first camera body (and only) use it for a year and has given me many satisfactions, I use it with an optical light handyman (24-70 f2.8 EX DG). In Canon could better handle the noise at least up to ISO-3200 and ISO-12800 up to no sense if used with a good quality only up to ISO-1600. I recommend it to people like me who looks to the magical world of photography is constantly evolving. Excellent tool for photo-advanced amateur or as a second body maccchina. |
 | sent on 25 Agosto 2011 Pros: Excellent price / performance ratio. Reflex light and compact. Cons: It does not look very strong for its all-plastic structure. Some problems of noise at high ISO. Gusts slow. Opinion: The use of more than one year. I chose it for its good quality / price ratio, since I had a limited budget. I use it mainly for landscape photos with a Canon EF-S 15-85 IS USM, and I am very satisfied. It 'perfect for hiking where weight and size are important. Although the appearance is quite "plastic" so far has proved to be quite robust. |
 | sent on 06 Luglio 2011 Pros: Ability to shoot in RAW or JPEG, 18.0 Megapixel, excellent quality / price ratio, the sensor used dlla 7D, high degree of customization, excellent video; Cons: ISO sensitivity can only be used up to 800 (max. 1600 but then work with incisive PP), the same adjustment to a stop and not of 1/3, maximum burst of three photos; Opinion: For a year I am passionate about photography and I started with the Canon EOS 550D because I believe it an excellent tool for apprendimento.rnL 'I used it on many occasions: hiking, festivals, sporting events, or stalking in nature often succeeding to take at home at least one photo of me his rewards sforzo.rnInfine, another added value is the quality / price ratio, would not hesitate to recommend it to those who want to look out for this wonderful world. |

Cons: Suffers at high iso with very little brightness' max usable at 1600 ISO. Opinion: It 's my second camera body after the 5D, but I must say that I love him and are very affezzionato to lei.Ho made the trips more' diverse with this machine and I 'fall 3 times, but always miraculously unharmed .. . hopefully the miracle continues. With any purpose appropriate to a very good, some of my best pictures I've taken with this machine, it has an excellent quality 'prezzo.Non will have' a structure as they say "rubustissima" but performs its job well, for I think it is perfect landscapes. |
