Canon EOS 500D vs Nikon D90
With the announcement of the EOS Rebel T1i / 500D, Canon was clearly putting one camera on notice, the Nikon D90. With 15.1 megpixels, higher ISO, and the ability to shoot 1080p video, the Canon clearly looks to have the upper hand over the D90. But a closer looks at the specifications of the cameras reveal the Nikon D90 to still be a fine camera, perhaps even a camera better suited to the more discerning photographer. The Nikon D90 is faster, with better build quality, and features a top-side LCD. On paper the Canon EOS 500D might appear to have an edge in ISO, but real-life results may favor the Nikon D90. The D90’s viewfinder is bigger and brighter than the 500D, and while it may not have the ability to shoot 1080p video, the 500D technically doesn’t either due to the 20 fps (meaning most users may opt to shoot video in 720p mode).
There’s likely another factor though, that will influence most consumers, and that’s the respective pricing of the two cameras. Body only, the Canon EOS 500D is $100 cheaper, and for the same price as the body only Nikon D90, Canon offers a kit with the 18-55mm IS lens. For a camera nearly as good as the D90 and the promise of higher resolution image files, it may be to good to pass up.
To find out more about just how the two cameras compare, we’ve compiled a comparative look of some of the more key specifications below. As you’ll see they’re quite close, but one thing’s clear: Canon has offered a very competitive camera at a compelling price.

For a direct image quality comparison of the 2 cameras, head no further than Imaging Resource’s invaluable “Comparometer”. To my eye, the Nikon D90 might have a slight edge at higher ISO due to its ability to maintain detail (Canon smudging more detail in order to surpress noise), though really, both cameras are performing at a level at or beyond what the enthusiast photographer might demand.

News for Canon : Canon Launches Two New High-End Camcorders — XF105 and XF100
Canon on Tuesday announced the new Canon XF105 and XF100 Professional Camcorders for mobile HD video capture in a compact form factor. Canon’s smallest professional camcorders, the new XF105 and XF100 utilize the same Canon XF Codec featured in the Canon XF305 and XF300, introduced earlier this year. As Canon continues to make video a priority, the new models add to its already substantial line of video recording cameras and camcorders.
The Canon XF Codec is an MPEG-2 4:2:2 50Mbps codec used for exceptional high-definition image quality, full non-linear editing (NLE) systems compatibility and efficient, robust workflow. These camcorders include in-camera features enabling the easy set-up and capture of high-definition 3-D video when two XF105 or XF100 camcorders are paired,as well as Canon’s built-in infrared low-light feature enabling the capture of HD video in complete darkness. Both models record to Compact Flash (CF) cards and feature hot-swappable card slots for maximum performance. Differentiating the two models are industry-standard HD-SDI output and genlock in/SMPTE time code (in/out) terminals available on the Canon XF105. The XF105 and XF100 camcorders are ideal for Electronic News Gathering, documentary and independent filmmaking and event videography.
“Whether used as a companion to the XF305 or XF300, or as a stand-alone camcorder, the XF105 and XF100 are geared for a wide range of applications where high image quality, extreme portability and efficient workflow are of the utmost importance. And with true stereoscopic 3-D production and infrared recording capabilities, they allow users to expand into new markets,” stated Yuichi Ishizuka, executive vice president and general manager, Consumer Imaging Group?This week we will be exhibiting both the Canon XF105 and XF100 at Canon EXPO 2010 in New York and demonstrate the versatile low-cost capabilities.?
The Canon XF105 and XF100 Professional Camcorders feature a Genuine Canon 10x HD Zoom lens which provides the mobility and optical performance required by the most demanding professionals. Each model includes a Canon developed and designed native Full HD 1920 x 1080 CMOS image sensor and the new Canon XF Codec for extreme color detail required for accurate chroma-keying, color-grading and compositing for digital filmmaking. For finer transitions in tone and color, 4:2:2 color sampling offers twice the color resolution of HDV and other 4:2:0 formats. And to maximize compatability with existing industry infrastructure, video, audio and metadata are combined in an MXF (Material eXchange Format) File Wrapper, a widely supported open-source format. The Canon XF Codec is currently compatible with leading software programs widely used within the video production and broadcast industries including those available from Adobe, Apple, Avid, and Grass Valley.
To maximize the camcorders’ adaptability across various production environments, Canon has equipped each model with the ability to record at multiple bit rates, resolutions and variable frame rates for slow and fast motion.
| Mode | Resolution | Frame Rate | ||
| 50Mbps (CBR) 4:2:2 | 1920 x1080 | 60i/30p/24p | ||
| 1280 x 720 | 60p/30p/24p | |||
| 35Mbps (VBR) 4:2:0 | 1920 x1080 | 60i/30p/24p | ||
| 1280 x 720 | 60p/30p/24p | |||
| 25Mbps (CBR) 4:2:0 | 1440 x1080 | 60i/30p/24p |
CBR = Continuous Bit Rate
VBR = Variable Bit Rate
Additional professional features include variable-interval (for time-lapse) and frame-record for stop-motion animation, and a photo feature for frame-grabs.
Genuine Canon 10x HD Zoom Lens
The Canon XF105 and XF100 Professional Camcorders feature a Genuine Canon 10x HD Zoom lens with a 35mm equivalent zoom range of 30.4mm – 304mm. For professional looking results, both models offer an eight-blade iris which yields natural, smooth background blur with reduced lens diffraction. The lens also features a SuperRange Optical Image Stabilizer (OIS) system featuring Dynamic and Powered IS modes for optimal performance in the greatest variety of situations.
DIGIC DV III Image Processor
The proprietary Canon DIGIC DV III Image Processor and Canon Full HD CMOS Image Sensor render native 1920 x 1080 HD video, capturing natural,lifelike colors with remarkable tonal gradations and detail. The DIGIC DV III Image Processor also powers Canon’s innovative Face Detection Technology, an autofocus option that can significantly reduce the effort required when camera operators work alone, such as in news gathering applications.
Compact, Comfortable Ergonomics and Operation
Weighing less than 3lbs, these models are designed to maximize comfort while shooting and enable fast on-the-go recording with both a top and side grip option. Each camcorder also features a convenient, freely rotating 3.5-inch, 920,000 dot LCD monitor and .24-inch 260,000 electronic viewfinder with approximately 100 percent field of coverage.The LCD monitor provides a display of the camcorders’ built-in waveform monitor to aid in achieving accurate exposure while shooting. Additionally, the LCD can show peaking, edge-monitor-focus and magnify the image, enabling users to confirm critical focus, an essential objective in all HD production.
Affordable 3-D Shooting
Canon offers built-in features to assist with 3-D production, including OIS Lens Shift to aid in optically aligning two XF105 or XF100 camcorders and a Focal length Guide for displaying the zoom position of each camera in relation to each other and calibrating the zoom distance.This adjustment can be done through the menu system while the camcorder is mounted to a rig or tripod. Once aligned, the amount of the angle-of-view change is displayed after zoom adjustment, preventing camera misalignment and simplifying adjustment.
Infrared Shooting
The Canon XF105 and XF100 include an infrared feature enabling the capture of HD video shooting in conditions with little to zero ambient light, which is ideal for Military and Law Enforcement markets,as well as Nature and Wildlife videographers. The XF105 and XF100 also feature an infrared emitter with a diffuser as well as a Green or White color option to shoot pleasing infrared imagery even in complete darkness.
Audio Flexibility
The Canon XF105 and XF100 Professional Camcorders feature dual XLR inputs for external audio sources as well as a built-in stereo microphone. The new camcorders support 16-bit PCM audio at 48 kHz with automatic and manual audio level adjustment.
The XF105 and XF100 will both be available in the first quarter of 2011. Pricing was not announced.

The Nexus One is the first phone using Android 2.1, making the Google Nexus One phone a strong competitor against Apple iPhone 4 and the HTC Droid Incredible. The screen is an outpour of 16.7 million colors and the display is 800 x 480-pixel, good enough for you to browse photos and watch videos. A good news for movie lovers is that the Google Nexus One supports video playback duration of up to 7 hours, and music up to 20 hours. Well, I know that’s not our topic but… it is somewhat related to our concern: putting video and music to Nexus One phone.
In order to put videos and music to Google Nexus One for playback, you need to make sure that the video (or audio) format is supported by the Nexus One. Let’s take a look at acceptable code by Nexus One:

Audio codec: AAC LC/LTP, HE-AACv1 (AAC+), HE-AACv2 (enhanced AAC+), AMR-NB, AMR-WB 9, MP3, MIDI SMF, Ogg Vorbis, WAV
If your source video or audio file is encoded by above mentioned codec, please move on to the next step. Otherwise you need to convert the video or audio to supported format for Nexus One before putting video to Nexus One.
Detailed guide of putting videos and music from PC to Nexus One:
1. Use the USB cable that came with your Nexus One to connect the phone to your PC, and you’ll receive a notification that the USB is connected.

3. The SD card of Nexus One is mounted as a drive on your computer.You can now copy videos from PC to the SD card. During this time, you can’t access the SD card from your Nexus One or share your phone’s data connection with your computer via USB.
4. When the videos are copied to the SD card of Nexus One, you can disconnect your phone from PC. First unmount the SD card on your PC, then open the Notifications panel and touch Turn off USB storage.
Create Nexus One videos from movies, TV recordings, HD shootings, DVD videos, Flashes, etc:
What if the video formats are not supported by Nexus One? Is there anyway to make Nexus One play movies, TV shows, Flashes and general videos that are not encoded in accepted codec? Surely there is. In the following guide I will show you a way enjoying videos of AVI, MOV, TiVo, FLV, MKV on Nexus One.The tool I use is Pavtube Video Converter.

Step 1. Load Videos to the Video to Nexus One Converter.

Extract music from video for playback with Nexus One?Convert video to Nexus One audio?
It is very simple to extract sound track from videos. You can convert every video that loaded to the converter to Nexus One music.Simply select desired audio format in Step 2 (see the above guide). For example, you may follow “Common Video”-> “MP3 – MPEG Layer 3 Audio (*.mp3) or “AAC- Advanced Audio Coding (*.aac).
What if I just need partial of the track, not a full length? Well, here you are advised to use the Trim function in the Editor of Video to Nexus One Converter. Select the item you want to trim, click “Edit” button, then switch to “Trim” tab to set start and end time. Always trim the video before setting output format.
The picture above reveals that I cut the video length from 55 secs down to 30 secs. I then back to the main interface of Video to Nexus One Converter, set output format as MP3, and click “Convert”. Few seconds later, I get an MP3 file of 30 secs.
The Nexus One Converter- convert Nexus One shootings to Youtube, FaceBook, etc
With the Google Nexus One, up to thirty minutes of video can be shot in a 720 x 480-pixel resolution, surely you can watch the videos on the smart phone, but when you feel like posting your shootings to Youtube,FaceBook, Viemo, etc, this powerful Pavtube Nexus One Converter also helps you to customize Nexus One shootings (H.263 or MPEG-4 encoded videos) to Youtube,FaceBook with proper formats, size,and duration. But maybe I would leave it in another guide, since that’s not today’s topic.
