Here is a Renz Sion by a user who knows Canon for many years as professional users (media agency) love, and has learned to appreciate. Not only the excellent quality but also and above all the excellent fast service if really times a body- or lens defect should be present. This has happened so far but never in debt by Canon, but has always been user fault (crash, strong impact, etc.).
Now detail for 1100 D, some are from here for a short time in use. Be 'not needed in use just for small everyday scenes where the so-called. `Big guns (eg, persons or group photos or just simple everyday situations in which the object is close in mind).
Even if the 1100 D is classified as entry-level model, it is actually much more! Yes, it is sufficient in many areas precisely even professional requirements. This results simply from the fact that Canon has mitgegebenen her much of what else is actually found only in the professional sector.
Already with the fully automatic function, it works just perfect. Its enormously rapid deployment time Impressive especially: Hardly turned them is at hand: Could not be better! Just like the composition of the individual technical components, the so-called recipe for good photos. It selects all settings in record time, truly impressive! Also at the results, there is absolutely nothing to complain about. This applies to the single-frame shooting as well as for continuous shooting.
I myself did yesterday before a damned difficult task: you should provide me with images of coming from a broken gutter water drops. Of course she got a tripod to help (normal), but what I got to see later on the PC monitor has me almost carved out of the office chair! And that of a `level model 'to a truly low price!
Simply makes fascinating good shots and that's the icing on the cake of a camera, just the what is important. And nothing else. This camera can take in each hand, through movies, to focus, shoot and has his picture, what he wants! Fits - short, what more could you want ?!
In addition to join the other manifold manual features, the Canon 1100 D donated. Because of the length I'm going here not to all of them individually, but combined, I can say: The personal creativity of each user there are no limits! You just fun and makes you feel damn good: Which object is also always asked her, she copes with it!
Me personally as eyeglass wearers eg impressed directly on the eyepiece and the dioptre adjustment. The case of a camera for the price! Once properly adjusted and the annoying glasses on and taking off today. Toll! Also something I know only from the professional camp otherwise. Everything is in the viewfinder field is clear and clearly legible, just important for manual use.
Very good also the display has succeeded: size is enough, absolutely sharp (depths) representation, data legible, the plus or negative zooming is fixed and easily. So that other manufacturers do in this price range very, very hard!
A big drawback is in this price range often the battery life. As already impressed 1100 D again: The making say (without flash) and write 1100-1200 with photos! Madness! With lightning naturally less, but even then are loosely possible to the 700-800. Is he actually once empty, it is again proppevoll in less than two hours. And remember: The professional invites before! In between, is thanks to the latest lithium polymer technology for a long time anyway without problems since these small power plants' no longer know the formerly hated `battery memory.
The picture quality is excellent even to the edges and in the corners of the photo into it. Thus, the current software version is perfectly adequate. Freaks of very latest software can register their 1100 D Canon. The service logs by e-mail when a new version is available. Were there any other even in the professional sector.
Delivered as standard with the 18 / 55er-lens and the built-in flash is enough for the average user. Again impressed 1100 D again, because the speed at which the appropriate (!) Calculated for the flash guide number by almost a skin!
If that is not enough in the long run (and Caution: The 1100 D has addictive in itself!), Which can have recourse to the truly great lens offer. When it comes to external flash I can personally (preferably with diffuser) recommend the Speedlite 580 EX, because they particularly like. But: This is also a financial question of each individual and also depends on the demands. Even with smaller Speedys they will cope well.
A word of also otherwise only in the professional sector encountered wireless capability via WiFi via Eye-Fi memory card functions the same without any problem. Especially good: the uncompromising onset power saving mode with activated WLAN! Protects the battery enormously and is immediately available again as soon as you tap the shutter button gently. This subject is of interest but most users slightly. This is recommended a normal SDHC memory card. Here, however, important: Who wants to use the film function much should already enjoy a 32GB card and thereby called on the `Card Class 10 watch '.! Then delivers the 1100 D in this area great movies that can be thanks HDMI output delivered directly to the TV. And also important: the capacity of the card upward knows no limit (!): The 1100 D comes clear with everything!
Conclusion:
I personally calling 1100 D for the average user to be completely adequate model with professional ingredients. It is extremely easy to operate, which is likely to be crucial for many. Fondle not only long, make and do, but through movies, to focus, pull the trigger and you're done, all with the result of superior image quality. Add to this the many other applications that are sure irritate sometime to try out. Why not? The 1100 D can be like to play with them '' and masters the full good. In addition: The ours against the dealers via Amazon is a lot cheaper, should also be decisive. The price, even the `I-am-but-not-stupid-shop 'does not offer.
Yet this: The printed Quick Start Guide for `Ruck-Zuck-commissioning 'enough, everything else can be found on the supplied very detailed DVD-ROM (!). If you still have questions: The Canon support in Frankfurt / Main can be reached via normal landline number. Then is still a CD on which excellent programs for image editing and so find, which cost otherwise money!
