07Feb Yet another Canon DSLR Release t3i/600d
Canon Just announced the Rebel t3i/600d and this camera doesn’t look like anything fresh from canon. The spec list is almost the same as 60d and t2i. Why would anyone feel the need to upgrade?

04Feb JuicedLink DS214 AGC Disabling pre-amp released this month.
Let me start by saying that I like Juicedlink products. I have the JL-DT454 which provides the ability to disable AGC on the canon 7d.

I often get questions about memory cards. Well i’ve already covered Compact flash cards for the 7d/5d mark II so lets take a look at SDHC cards. The canon t2i data rate is ruffly 45Mbits per second which is about 5.89Mbytes per second. Since class 4 cards are only designed to handle 4Mbytes a second […]
