Canon Rebel T1i and other goodies

Ok, so this not really a RX-8 related post, however what I plan to do with my new Canon Rebel T1i is. That being higher quality photography and HD video movies.

After more than 5 years with my trusty little Konica Minolta DiMage A200 point n' shoot, it was time to upgrade into the DSLR world. It has been, and still is a great camera with many features that SLRs have in terms of exposure/ISO/F-stop settings etc. However the technology is outdated and limited to what I want to do with it.

"In addition to its admirable performance with an all-new 15.1 Megapixel Canon CMOS sensor, DIGIC 4 Image Processor, a 3.0-inch Clear View LCD with anti-reflective and scratch-resistant coating, and compatibility with the EOS System of lenses and Speedlites, the EOS Rebel T1i adds remarkable Full HD video capture at resolutions up to 1920 x 1080."

The overall picture quality of this camera is fantastic! What really caught my eye for this particular model is its HD Video capability. Shooting is at a frame rate of 30 fps when shooting SD or HD quality video (640 x 480 and 1280 x 720 pixels, respectively) and at a frame rate of 20 fps in Full HD (1920 x 1080 pixels) recording.



What's having great movie footage if you can't edit in post? Enter Sony Vegas Movie Studio 9!



And for that smoothness and creativity in shooting, the Cam Caddie Scorpion.

I can't wait to see what you do with this. Still figuring ours out as I go but obviously don't put the time in that you do or have quite the know how. Very excited for you!
