Canon's lineup includes many devices for amateurs and professionals of different ratings, so that everyone can get the most optimal sample for themselves.

SLR cameras in the segment for amateurs are no longer a surprise. One of the most popular models here is Canon EOS 2000D... Despite the fact that the model was released relatively recently, we have already seen all the "stuffing" in other products of the brand. A distinctive feature of the device is the presence of a metal bayonet, as well as an optical viewfinder with a diopter adjustment. The model is equipped with a 24 megapixel sensor, which is quite enough for taking good pictures. The main disadvantage of the device is the low value of light sensitivity, which negatively affects the detail.

Another famous amateur-grade DSLR is Canon EOS 77D... The main advantage of the model is that during its creation, solutions were used that were previously tested on professional devices. First of all, we are talking about a 24.2 megapixel matrix, which boasts proprietary Dual Pixel technology. It is thanks to her that he manages to get high-quality pictures, as well as improve the auto focus mode. The novelty is also equipped with a powerful processor, which is enough to record videos in Full HD format. The main difference from the semi-pro models is that the Canon EOS 77D cannot boast of water resistance and 100% viewfinder coverage.

Canon has become a real hit in the segment of budget SLR cameras model EOS 800D Kit... A distinctive feature here is the advanced matrix, which provides remarkable detail, as well as excellent ISO. The shooting speed here is 6 frames per second, which is a pretty good indicator for the segment. The device also copes with video shooting with a bang thanks to digital stabilization.

The main difference between semi-professional devices is that they have a more reliable body, as well as an improved matrix and the ability to process photos.

One of the most popular devices in this segment is Canon EOS 6D Mark IIwhich boasts remarkable full-frame, optics and lenses. Among the main advantages of the model, it is worth noting not only a high-quality sensor, but also a remarkable autonomy. Now one charge is enough to take several thousand photos. The main highlight of the "DSLR" has become a rotating touch screen, as well as the ability to focus directly in real time. In addition, the photographer can simply press a finger on the place where the maximum focus is needed, and the device will quickly do it. The only drawback of the model is the presence of a magnesium case, which cannot boast of its strength and ability to withstand mechanical stress.

One of the most popular models in its class is Canon EOS 7D Mark II... The main advantage is that the developers managed to literally squeeze everything out of the matrix installed here. It is thanks to this that it is possible to shoot at almost any value without certain problems. Close attention was paid to serial shooting, which allows you to take up to 10 frames per second, which makes the model in demand for fans of reportage shooting. There are no problems with video recording here either, but the lack of a wireless module can be a disadvantage for some people.

Canon cameras for professionals are distinguished by their functionality, rugged housing and high cost. One of the most popular models in this segment is Canon EOS 1D X Markwhich became a sequel to 4000D and managed to win the love of professional photographers. This particular camera was recognized as the best in Europe. A feature of the device is its large-scale appearance. If you believe the reviews, then this model makes it possible to get perfect images at the output under any conditions.

Among the main advantages are the remarkable matrix and the ability to record video in 4K resolution. In addition, the device boasts a wide range of customization options. It should be noted that there are no automatic settings here, so only an experienced DSLR user will be able to cope with the use of the device.

Of course, the cost of such a model is impressive - only for the "body" you will have to pay about 300 thousand rubles, and the lens and other components will cost even more.

The absolute record holder in terms of the number of awards received is Canon EOS 5D Mark IV, which is used only by the best photographers of our time. A feature of this unit is the presence of a high-quality full-frame sensor, thanks to which you can get excellent pictures. It is this model that boasts the presence of the proprietary Dual Pixel technology, which not only provides automatic focusing, but also expands the possibilities for photo processing.

This camera also features two advanced and powerful processors. The first is needed in order to process the matrix signal, and the second deals with exposure metering. The main advantage is that the auto focus function remains active even when the burst mode is turned on.

In order for a DSLR camera to fully perform the functions assigned to it, close attention should be paid to the selection process. First of all, it is worth figuring out which category of device you need. Amateur devices are a great option for beginners who are just getting started or just want to take pictures for themselves.

The main advantages are that they are able to satisfy the needs of novice photographers, but at the same time they are distinguished by a more favorable price than the devices of the middle and premium segments. Besides, such a gadget makes it possible to fully get comfortable with the settings and understand the features of mirror devices... Entry-level cameras are also lightweight and compact, making them easy to transport.

Semi-professional specimens provide good image quality even in difficult conditions. If you compare the ideal lighting, then you will not be able to notice the difference, but at night this segment of Canon wins. Such products also boast a higher speed of operation.

As for professional cameras, they provide an opportunity to open the world of art, as well as get ultra-precise pictures. However, it is better not to give such devices to a beginner, since he will not be able to understand them.

The second parameter to pay attention to is the size of the matrix. The size of the image, noise and other indicators depend on this component. Experienced photographers prefer "DSLRs" with a large matrix, as this provides good light sensitivity, as well as a minimum of noise.

We must also not forget about the resolution of the matrix. It is this criterion that plays an important role in the detailing of the picture. If the matrix cannot boast of a large size, then some defects are possible during shooting.

The fourth important criterion is the sensitivity of the matrix. The quality of images taken at night depends on this.

Even the most professional camera, if used ineptly, will not be able to produce high-quality images. For in order for the resulting frames to be of high quality, close attention must be paid to setting up and following the rules of operation.

• Before you start taking pictures, you need to reset the settings. It often happens that a great scene does not look very good due to the fact that the wrong ISO values ​​and others were set. This can only be avoided by checking the settings and resetting them each time.

• Update the firmware in time, which is specialized software for image processing, as well as setting a number of parameters. For example, you can control frequently used functions.

• Charge the battery. The battery cannot be relied upon to be charged.If you plan to be on the set for a long time, then it is better to double-check everything than to plan another shoot later. In addition, you can purchase another battery that you can keep with you at all times.

• Choose the correct resolution. Typically, a Canon camera independently offers to shoot at the maximum resolution, regardless of what kind of subject is being photographed. However, this is not always advisable, because sometimes you need to get a small image that does not take up much space on the memory card. In addition, the smaller the photo size, the faster the picture will be taken.

• Feel free to experiment with the settings. What distinguishes professional photographers from amateurs is that they play with the settings in their free time, trying to find the best options for various shots. For example, you can test a lens or check focal length options.

• Choose the right focus. You don't have to rely on autofocus miracles all the time, because in the most difficult cases it is best to do it manually. This is especially true when you need to photograph fast moving objects.

• The role of the lens should not be underestimated. A weak lens will always be so no matter what device it is installed on. Therefore, before you start using the camera for professional purposes, pay close attention to the selection of the most suitable lens. Moreover, world-famous photographers advise, with a limited budget, to save on the camera, and not on the lens.

Thus, Canon's full-frame DSLR is of high quality, reliability and functionality. The brand's products are at the forefront of their industry, helping professional and hobbyist photographers create true masterpieces. A review of semi-professional cameras and their comparison with competitors show that Canon's line is more advantageous in terms of price-performance ratio. When buying, characteristics, appearance and equipment are important.
