Canon EOS 550D Review |
Canon EOS 550D (Rebel T2i / Kiss X4 Digital) Preview February 2010, Simon Joinson Preview based on a pre-production Canon EOS 55OD Lessthan a year after the launch of the EOS Rebel T1i (500D) comes thelatest in Canon's hugely popular consumer SLR range, the Rebel T2i (EOS550D). With the 450D and 500D Canon appeared to be pulling awayslightly from the real 'entry level' (a sector driven almost entirelyby price), and the EOS 550D - on paper at least - is no exception, outgunning many of the 'upper entry level' and mid range SLRs on themarket today in terms of spec. To ensure it doesn't lose out at theprice-sensitive DSLR entry point Canon is once again introducing itsnew flagship Rebel as a 'sister' product to the camera it ostensiblyreplaces. The EOS 500D (Rebel T1i) will be staying in the range for therest of 2010 (at, one presumes, a more attractive price point). Wewould assume that the new model finally spells the end of the line forthe current 'bargain' Canon, the venerable Rebel XSi (EOS 450D). Inmany respects the EOS 550D is a 'baby EOS 7D'. As well as getting aresolution boost to a class-leading 18 megapixels and a significantlyupgraded movie mode (which now offers full HD capture at up to 30 fps, has full manual control and the option to use an external stereomicrophone), the EOS 550D gets the 7D's sophisticated new meteringsystem (bringing it a lot closer to similarly positioned Nikon SLRs).It also sports a new widescreen (3:2) LCD panel, has improved buttondesign and finally offers the ability to customize the Auto ISOfunction. It's clear Canon has been feelingthe heat from the aggressive competition it faces from the numerousfeature-laden cameras offered by Nikon, Pentax, Sony and Olympus inthis market sector, and has decided to throw down the gauntlet with themost highly-specced Rebel we've ever seen. We'll reserve judgment onwhether it's destined to be a class-leader until we've got a finalproduction sample in for review, and I'm sure there's plenty of youinterested to see how well it does too. As it stands we've managed toget hold of a pre production sample for a day in order to produce thisbrief hands-on preview to tide you over.
