Take The Perfect Snapshot this Valentine’s Day with The New Canon Rebel T2i DLSR

Valentine’s Day is fast approaching, you may want to capture every romantic moment not just in the frame of your heart but in a perfect digital image and HD video as well. In time before you capture and immortalize your lovey-dovey moments this Valentine’s day, Canon recently released their latest addition to their popular Rebel DLSR series – the new Rebel T2i. This dubbed “entry-level” DLSR shares some of the other Rebel camera’s features like the 18-megapixel CMOS sensor, DIGIC 4 processor, ISO range of 100-6400 (expandable to 12,800) and a 63-zone Dual Layer Metering System. The T2i compared to the high-end Rebel models may have lower 4 channel reader and only a 9-point autofocus system but it more than makes up for it with its fast 3.7 frames per second shooting rate.

If you want to go beyond still images, the Rebel T2i’s video capability is a big leap compared to its sibling. The T2i can record astounding 1080p Full HD videos up to 30 frames per second. The video capture feature uses manual exposure and has a movie crop mode that allows up to 7x magnification in standard definition without loss in quality.

The new Rebel T2i comes in a compact chassis and has an improved battery life that can last for up to 550 shots. For expansion options, it has a microphone jack, HDMI port, and supports SDHC and SDXC memory cards.

Yes, I want a Canon EOS Rebel T2i 18 MP CMOS APS-C Digital SLR Camera with 3.0-Inch LCD and EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS Lens before Valentine’s Day hits.

Samsung NX10 – A Step towards DSLR Evolution

The last 2010 Consumer Electronics Show gave birth to a lot of new and interesting gadgets; it’s almost like the Primordial Soup for consumer electronics. But like evolution, not are all born butterflies or swans, there are gadgets destined to compete to be on top of the food chain. CES showed that photography and cameras are a major part of the consumer electronics industry. Enthusiasts and regular household still wants higher megapixel and the latest features like GPS, face detection, information tagging and touch screen display. As a result, cameras try to out evolve each other to get the lion’s share of the market and this time Samsung and their new NX10 next generation camera might be the next alpha male. For starters, this latest camera from Samsung features a smart and fast auto focus, large 14.6 MP APS-C size CMOS, pop-up flash, electronic viewfinder and a bright 3.0” AMOLED screen. The NX10 also supports 720p HD video recording in H.264 format.

What sets the Samsung NX10 apart from other DLSRs? Since Samsung NX10 features a mirror-less design; it is smaller, lighter and more compact than other SLRs. The mirror-less lens are completely interchangeable but it comes with a catch – Samsung opted for a proprietary K-mount for the lenses but word is, that there will be an available adapter. With the NX10, professional photographers can enjoy all the benefits of a full featured SLR without the extra weight. The other unique feature is Samsung NX10’s AMOLED screen which promises less power consumption coupled with faster refresh rates.
