Canon EOS 550D (Rebel T2i), now with a resolution of 18 MP




Mobile Gadget22. Canon returned upgrade from their popular DSLR EOS 500D, EOS 550D with the launch (Digital Rebel T2i) with the major changes in the sensor. If the Canon 500D using 15 MP CMOS sensor, Canon's so this time wearing a 18 MP CMOS sensor with gapless micro lens technology (first introduced on the EOS 50D). This sensor technology has the ability to capture light better, so even though this sensor chip has a pixel density, but believed the meeting would not sacrifice quality.

Physically, there is no significant change from 500D to 550D. At the front of the two almost identical except the position of the switch EOS logo in the top position. In the back looks 3-inch LCD screen resolution is 1 million pixels wider usage thanks to an aspect ratio of 3:2 format (not 4:3). EOS 550D is exactly like a miniature of the EOS 7D, not just because of the similarity the sensor, but because it has a modern metering module (iFCL metering zone 63), the same ISO range (100-6400) and the ability of full-resolution video recording 1080i HD movie in 30 fps. Both were wearing DIGIC IV processor-powered.

But of course not all the excess EOS 7D adopted here. EOS 550D is nevertheless remains the same as 500D with 'just' 9 point AF, viewfinder mirror (not prism) and the burst speed is quite slow (3.7 fps). Not to mention the design and material body, EOS 550D is not as solid as his brother segagah and 7D. EOS 550 body is still relatively small, especially in gripnya, while the material body material is plastic (not magnesium alloy). On the positive side, for those of you who do not need all the power of the EOS 7D (such as burst speeds up to 8 fps, or the number of AF points is 19 points, or extra-sturdy body materials plus weather sealed) you can select the EOS 550D is just enough to cost 9 million including kit lens EF-S 18-55mm IS.

Additional: Two new Canon DSLR APS-C class was launched, the EOS 7D for semi-pro class and EOS 550D for a beginner class. But given the EOS 550D is already very advanced for a beginner, we wonder if Canon will also make a real beginner DSLR successor, the EOS 1000D. Let's see ..
