One and an half year passed, and i still have my Canon EOS 500D, now with a BG-E5 grip, two original LP-E5 batteries AND LOADS OF LENSES!! Canon, really thank you!
im a noob, i have a question.... do all canon lenses fit the camera : / coz some say what cameras it can fit onto and others dont.... With the lenses that dont say what cameras they fit would they fit this camers 0.o?
I'm getting the 500D in a couple of weeks, saved up for ages for it and after seeing this video clip, i want it even more now. Its an amazing piece of photographic technology...i can't wait to start taking pictures and capturing video with it too.
I bought this camera for about 2 months ago, very happy with it so far. I also purchased a new Canon 18-200 lens and battery grip. I will enjoy the beautiful pictures in many years to come.
@grabedigger hey so you got this model? can you tell me anything about it? is the photo quality compromised by the video functions?? sometimes too many pixels is a bad thing... ?? thanks :)
have this camera and love it, but Canons to quit fibbing about "Full HD". at 1080 iit's only 20 fps, which is pretty much useless for anything but very slow panning of a stationary scene, like a landscape. Come on Canon, get it together and give us a firmware update with 24 fps for 1080. Then this camera will be perfect. Oh, more manual control over video would be nice, too.
I don't mean to sound like an ass, but at 0:53, you really should have that neck strap where it's supposed to be; around your neck, or you might regret it one day as your $1000+ camera/lens goes crash.
nice clip, but the 500D still has a SMALL sensor (1.6 crop) which really reduces quality! compared to the 5D MKII (also 3 " screen, DiGicIV processor, but full frame - so also L lenses!!! ultra crisp picture quality because of L lens and 35mm full frame sensor. and 1080 pix HDD filming, on top of that: weather sealed. Shows Pro vs amature qualities)
Any camera is as good as the glass in front of it!
the green square is the autofocussing field/point (face detector too) in the live view mode (also on the 5D MKII that I have) with the "nipple" button on the back she is moving thispoint to his face. Then presses the auto focus button (need top do that in live view - only way of focussing in live view) and the once it is focussed it will memorise this.
does the sensor in the camera heat up after prolonged video sessions and does it degrade the picture quality over time because of constant use of the video mode?
i maybe a cynic but this award winner is purely exploiting this camera, cos surely if she has won cameras for photography it aint gonna be this one is it? it maybe the 50d yeah but not like a budget dslr which is not really gonna do anything for her photography, don't get me wrong this camera has some great features, just not for a budding pro, there are far more serious cameras out there, this is for a prosumer not a professional
I recently purchased a canon 500d Kit. I don't know how to explain this. The problem with recording video is that for example if i am standing in the center and i have 6 vertically straight poles around me and I pan the camera fast, I get distorted images (the vertical poles look slanted). Is there a problem with my camera or am i missing something? Please Help..!
No, the 500D records in a way called a "rolling shutter", which means that it gathers pixels going from the top of the sensor to the bottom each frame. So, the reason the poles would look slanted is because while the sensor already recorded the new position of the pole in the frame at the top of the frame, it has not yet recorded the position of the pole at the bottom of the frame.
nice commercial, except the camera shoots 1080p at 20 frames per second only.. and, seriously: who needs that?
that´s most likely the most useless feature canon ever came up with just for the sake of labeling the camera with "FULL HD" - but it´ll be shaky, guys! what the...? put one together for about 1.500 € with a fully working 1080p feature, is that so difficult? you proved the opposite with the MK II already. shaking my head..
I need the 20fps full HD video! Any of those seconds is like 20 HD pictures!! Who needs 15MP for a magazine or printable picture? Is just a matter of seeing things from another end!
I bought a 500D last Saturday and so far I'm loving it! I'm a complete newcomer to DSLRs though (I've always been a point and shoot kid) so I still have a lot to learn. Still, it's a great camera for sure! My only negative is that the build quality, whilst not 'bad', isn't spectacular (feels a bit too plasticy). Everything else would have to get an A* though :)
That's amazing that a new model of canon DSLR which is 500D an extended version of 450D...The high ISO shot mode allows those like th shot at low light and the expandable ISO was great and unbelieveble which can achieved to ISO 12800 and this time this model offered a great shot of HD video shooting at the same time take a shot at still image.
I really wish that Canon would cease with the 'full 1080p HD video' thing because it isn't...it's only 20fps at 1080 which isn't full HD.
Having said that, the 20fps still looks quite usable and 720p at 30fps is still used by most HDTV channels anyway so it's not like it's a lesser camera for not having 1080p. It's still the cheapest way to get professional looking HD video.
Nikon's D90 is twice the camera. This is just some cheap version trying to compete with Nikon. This camera is small and cheaply made. The build quality is way better on the D90.
If you need a stronger camera what you need is a 40D or a 50D... if you don't need a tough one, but you still want a camera with a very high image quality, this one is perfect, way beyond D90 (14bit vs 12bit, higher ISO sensitivity, higher definition...)
Um, the D90 can't really compare.... less pixels, lower level chip technology, and it doesn't have as many of the upgrades that the 500D has. One other point is that the 450D already outsells the D90, which tells you something right there.
I agree, the build quality on Nikon camera's is exceptional. At the same price point the Nikon feels so much better in the hand. Even the 5D feels like a cheap piece of kit compared to the D90.
But the 500D pretty much kills the D90 in almost every other aspect. Especially in the the video stakes. It is not even comparable, the D90's is awful and the 500D's is lovely.
@toocoolforu people should read all the comments before they buy a product, i was this close to buying it but 20fps is a real blow to the nuts, no thanks Canon.
