Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Canon EOS 20D 8.2MP Digital SLR Camera (Body Only)

Customer Review: An absolutely wonderful camera
Summary: 5 Stars

This camera is really great. I knew I liked it before, but I immediately began to appreciate this camera all the more when I ended up with a Rebel XT as a "loaner" while my 20d was in repair.

Not that the XT is a bad camera, it just doesn't really compare to the 20d.

The 20d has a nice feel to it; it is fairly large, which is great since I have somewhat large hands. The features are great too. And the image quality is awesome. I don't really need to go into all of the details, as most of the other reviewers have done an excellent job. Let me just say that it is a great camera and is worth the five stars.

The only complaint I have about the camera is that it doesn't have spot metering. The ability to do your light metering off of a single point of interest would be great - and they did add it to the 30d.

Customer Review: Great upgrade form the Rebel. Great ameteur-intermediate Camera
Summary: 5 Stars

Impressive feature list wih affordable price, for the serious ameteur. i've been using the 20D with 18-55, 50mm 1.8, 35-80, 80-200 and 500/1000mm lenses. i am not disappointed. i am planning to upgrade to the L series lenses but slowly.

i do not mean to be over entusiastic about canon, but i am yet to see a Nikon camera with the same specs at the same or ever a near equal price. i've got the FM10 for film photography. i love both my cameras.

Impressive features include:
Mirror lockup
ISO 3200 with noise reduction
18 custom functions
accepts the entire series of canon lens.
heavy metal body (no cheap plastic feel)

Customer Review: Excellent Camera... slow service from Canon Warranty
Summary: 4 Stars

This is a great camera. Plenty of resolution. Excellent shot speed. Sturdy frame. The kit lense doesn't do the camera justice. Buy the body separate and add a better lense.

On the bad side, I had a small glitch with the camera's firmware soon after purchase and had to return it for a fix. It was two months before the camera was returned. Sorry, Canon... you lose a star for that.

Customer Review: 20D is amazing!
Summary: 5 Stars

This camera is amazing, I couldn't have asked for more. Just be warned that the manual is pretty terrible. It's best to just play around with the camera until you figure it out, rather than wasting time trying to decipher the manual.

Customer Review: Helping me record the moments
Summary: 5 Stars

My kids are in competitive Tae Kwon Do. I have now used the camera my wife gave me one year ago at several tournaments. It is able to stop action and take great shots even in low lighting. Now, we tried it when we went skiing and it also worked great in the glare conditions of the snow. I bought a monopod that worked real well to stabalize and I use software called PhotoFinale to crop and share the photos.

One year into the usage I am still looking forward to each chance I get to play with this "toy".

Next options: battery grip, flash diffuser, extra remote flash...
