getitdigital video review: Canon EOS Rebel T2i (550D) vs. Canon EOS Rebel T1i (500D)

It may seem like a slightly different idea to compare an newer, upgraded model of a Camera to the older model which is moving on down the product line although when Canon released the T2i, the T1i was and is one of the best consumer level Digital SLR cameras available. The getitdigital review blog likes to look at things differently. Therefore we've decided to put them head to head in a video comparison. You can check out the specs and more info on both cameras on our blog at http://getitdigital.wordpress.com/2010/03/05/getitdigital-video-review-canon-...

how do you do the birst thing. 1:54 I can't figure it out. I have the canon t2i.

@MrStanTheMan100 @MrStanTheMan100 it's about the drive mode - you need to be in the right shooting mode or "drive" - look for the mode whose icon looks like a bunch of rectangles stacked up

@THEACEOFSPORKS Ahh. I was hoping not a second hand as I don't trust them XD But thanks! :)

[THEACEOFSPORKS]

@sasuke12020 keep an eye on gumtree for a bargain if you are willing to buy second hand. I just bought a new nikon d3100. :)

[sasuke12020]

@THEACEOFSPORKS Hey, sorry where did you find this price? Is it available online? As I wish to purchase either one but the price is rather high...

[heratus007]

great

Thanks for the great comparison, i have found the 550d for £420 and the 500d for £325. Is the 550d worth the extra £95. i am thinking of doing some movie making and some sport photograph. Help appreciated, thanks.

You missed video comparison. That's the only reason why I really want to get one of these. Sony HD just doesn't compare. It would be greatly appreciated if you did do a video comparison. Subscribed! And thanks.

@Sarxasm Thanks for your answer. I´m not agree with you. I Have 16 GB Sdcard CLASS 10 Transdisk and another 8GB Sandisk Extreme III 233x (30 mb/s), both of them makes the same issue. So, I readed in another FORO QUESABESDE. the 550D has this issue. I´m happy with my T2i but I want to buy another camara to remove this bug, may be the T3i? Thanks anyway !!!
