Amazon.com Product Description

The Canon EOS Rebel 2000 is an affordable, lightweight, andfull-featured automatic 35mm SLR for both beginning and advancedamateur photographers. It offers a host of special modes for specificshooting situations, including full auto, manual, night scene,portrait, landscape, and more. It also has shutter-speed priority andaperture priority modes--although most users will inevitably leave thecamera in full auto mode a majority of the time and the cameraperforms very well that way. Just remember that the empty rectanglesymbol on the mode dial is for full auto.

Some other basic features include an impressive seven-point autofocussystem, LCD panel with extensive information display, three exposuremetering modes (evaluative, partial, and centerweighted), autoexposure bracketing, a multiple exposure function, and depth-of-fieldpreview. The autofocus system is incredibly responsive, and includesseven focusing points that can be set individually for super creativeshooting. In other words, using the LCD panel as a guide, you can setthe camera to automatically focus on the far right focus point (or anyof the other points) so your main subject doesn't have to be in themiddle of the frame to be in focus in a snap.

In fact, most settings can be adjusted in creative ways on the Rebel2000, like the exposure level, which can be set to overexpose orunderexpose up to two full stops for tricky lighting situations whereyou might want to fool the camera's metering system. It also has asmall, built-in pop-up flash, plus a hot shoe for an additional flashunit. Overall, we found this camera to be smartly designed with anattractive look and a comfortable feel.

Great Camera for beginners.......2007-08-21

Unlike a lot of reports about grainy pictures and what not; this camera is really top notch! This is my first camera and I got some really great shots already, the grainy complaint was probably due to people using a higher ISO and not knowing much about camera settings. You'll definitely want a zoom lens though, the 28-80mm is nice for normal everyday things, but if you really want to experiment try looking for a 28-300 or even a 70-300mm lens.

Definitely recommended for amateurs.

Another great product from Canon.......2005-12-30

I had this camera for years before it was stolen and I replaced it with a digital Canon SLR. I am still amazed at the abuse I put my Rebel 2000 through. It has a nice light body, a great auto feature, and easy-enough to use manual functions. And because of the popularity (and rightly so) of digital these days, you can pick one up for a fantastic price, even brand spanking new.

Excellent Camera: Easily beats a Digital camera for its price.......2005-09-18

I have had this camera for about 4 yrs now - I take it on all my business travels.

Whenever I get a chance to go out on on the weekends, I take this camera and my Sony camcorder in my backpack, roam the streets of the new city and shoot pictures. The pictures that I shoot from this camera are just awesome - no matter whatever experiment I do with it.

Most useful features:
1. Aperture control with Depth of field preview
- Lets to focus the foreground and blur the background
2. Shutter speed control upto infinity
- Lets you control the amount of time for which the shutter can be kept open
3. It is pretty rugged, dont try dropping it :) I have used it to shoot pics from 'Maid of the mist' in Niagara falls and I almost thought that I was going to lose it. But it worked liked a charm

Negatives
- Bulky, but you will get used to it, it always gets attention
- Cost of developing film - What I do these days is to just get the photos on a CD, then develop only those photographs that are good.

Why is this camera better than a Digital Camera ?
- If you are spending $200 on a Digital Camera, I feel that the SLR is way far too ahead of any Digital camera in that price range
- If you are spending $1000 on a Digital Camera, a Digital SLRs are very mature today - worth buying.

Ideally, I would buy this SLR, take this whenever I really want to take good photographs, then I would also want to have a $100 Kodak Digital Camera for casual shots. This would mean an ideal combination.

If you are buying this SLR, you can also consider buying a Film/Photo scanners (available for less than $150 now) - which lets you scan the negatives/positives without even going for a cheap CD print. From the reviews what I read on amazon, these scanners must be amazing.

love it.......2005-08-24

I bought this camera for my wife for Christmas 04' I thought I ordered it too late for it to arrive on time for Christmas, but these people are great! they got it to me on time and we love this camera we use it all the time - we have several accs. item for it and the quality of the picture are wonderful . Thanks Mark Christian

Great camera but not the cf card ejection button.......2005-07-09

I've had my camera for 1 year 4 months The camera did everything I wanted it to do and more until 2 months after the warranty ran out. Then, attempting to eject the flash card, the button went into the camera body and hasn't been seen since.
Canon has had the camera (along with the $300+ it will cost to repair it) for 45 days so far and no camera or word as to when it will be returned.
So beware of the cf card button!
Otherwise? 5 stars!

compared to my other cameras..........2005-01-06

I was given this camera as a gift and actually have enjoyed it. There are some things to consider though. On the good side it really does work as a digital camcorder, a still camera, an mp3 player and a voice recorder. Pretty good for such a a small and inexpensive package. Now the drawbacks. As a camera it struggles with low light situations (indoors) because there is no flash. There was a tripod included with mine and if it was set on that with the timer it does OK but to hold it in my hand the pictures are often blurry because of the longer exposure time. The camcorder mode also struggles some in low light, the movement on the screen seems jerky during recording, (though not so much during playback.) When the lighting is good both function very well and the pictures are just fine. The voice recorder works very well and the Mp3s are fun to have along. (Though you will want to get an sd memory card to go along with all of this.) I personally like that it has everything so compact and that it uses AA batteries. (The cheap ones that cam with the package have lasted two hours and are still going strong.) The camera itself does not have the finished feel of my pentax or Minolta cameras and the viewscreen is very small, (hence the longer battery life), but for the price and size I think this is a fun simple to use camera.

Happy but sad.......2004-11-27

I brought this camera and the picture quality was great! The down side is the video portion only gives you seconds, but hay you didn't spend a lot for the camera. The software that comes with the camera was very easy to use and for a younger person who is just learning to take pictures and use the computer it's wonderful.

to previous review.......2004-11-06

if you want it to record more you need to purchace an sd card...you can get a one gb for $75.00

It's not a digital video camera!.......2004-10-04

I ordered this camera and it only records five minutes of video!

Product Description

The fact that a Leica is far more than a camera has been proved time and again by its creators. A good example is the Leica M3, which had its great moment in 1954 - four years after the launch of the elegant masterpiece, the Leica IIIf. With its built-in bright line view and range finder and its innovative bayonet interchanger for the lens, the Leica M3 was a technical revolution that took the hearts of notable photographers and experts by storm. And with a total of 225, 000 produced, this top model remains the most successful Leica of all time. 1: 2.5 - this is the scale MINOX used six months ago to recreate the Leica IIIf faithfully and with all its functions. Now it is time for a new miniature edition, which combines two legendary names. Like its predecessor, the Leica M3 classic camera from MINOX is not only impressive because of its unique design, but also because of its excellent photographic results. This is guaranteed by the well-known MINOX 8x11mm film, the Minoctar 1: 5.6/15mm lens (3 lens elements in three groups) and, last but not least, by the stable metal casing with engraved serial number.

A waste of money.......2004-10-01

I got this camera as a gift and while I first was very excited about having a camera which is so small you can take everywhere, I am now deeply disapointed. I guess I was very stupid to expect a Dimage Xg-like performance from a cheapo camera. The only condition where the camera seems to make somewhat decent photos is in cloudy daylight.
Don't even dream about making photos with the flash. Either under- or overexposed. Generally I am "throwing" 9 out of 10 photos away. The camera has serious exposure problems, the pictures always come out fuzzy and always a little "blue-ish". Recycling time is decent if the flash is off, if the flash is on (even if you did not use the flash - flash set to automatic) it takes *forever* to take the next shot.
If you look for a snapshot camera which you can take anywhere, buy a disposable film camera, you will make much better pictures with it.

Nice compact camera.......2004-06-25

I bought one of these last September, and really like it, as do my friends. It's very small and compact, and takes decent photos, enough for most snap happy people. I agree about the night time stuff. I dark light, the camera has to be a certain distance away. Too close and everything is white, too far away, and there's little to be seen, but you soon get used to it.

Very good in sunlight, although it does put a hue on the picture that some people might find annoying, but I kinda like it. Works very well with Mac OS X and iPhoto, and also compatible with XP without drivers but don't know what software is like.

A review.......2004-04-26

I bought this camera as a gift for myself on a trip to Cardiff. It was only 60£ on sale(Gadgetshop). And while it's not a professional camera, it's very nice for snapshots. I have found that if you shoot into the sun, it flairs badly and the sensor is overwhelmed in direct sunlight, But the camera does take reasonable photos. The camera suffers jpeg compression problems on large areas of similar colors, But on complex scenes they do not appear. The flash is only effective up to 12 feet. Night photography is not what this camera is designed for. But I like the features, The camera has a video output that can perform a slide show in PAL or NTSC formats, and uses SD/MMC flash memory. This contrasts with other less than 100£ cameras that need the batteries to maintain the photos. The movie mode is also a quite nice feature even without sound. And best of all the Camera does not require any drivers for a Mac using OS-X. One other note, the lens displays no noticeable barrel, or pincushion effects and no noticeable unsharp areas along the edges of the images.

Product Description

Metrobility's "redundant twister" interface provides redundant data paths for path protection and restoration. An essential connectivity tool for high priority and mission-critical applications, it provides fully redundant data paths as well as power supply redundancy, for Ethernet or Fast Ethernet devices. If the primary connection fails due to a cable or hardware failure, the "redundant twister" interface switches the device's traffic to the secondary connections within 200 microseconds.Intelligent "redundant twister" models also deliver Managed Network-on-Demand capability for mission-critical applications. Managed Network-on-Demand allows the "redundant twister" media converter to be configured to operate in either Dynamic Recovery Mode (DRM) to ensure session integrity and increase uptime, or in Network Select Mode (NSM) to redirect traffic and add security through link isolation. And with SONAR, or Switch on No Activity Received, the interface not only monitors for loss of link on the active port, but will also monitor for traffic. With SONAR, if the active port remains idle for a given amount of time (configurable for 2-4 seconds) the resilient technology of the redundant interface will verify activity on the secondary port, and switch traffic to that port once traffic is detected. This prevents a switch or switch port failure from bringing down the network or any part of it.
