It is compatible! there is a firmware update that needs to take place. Call or email their customer service line. They are extremely helpful. They're very friendly and I'm confidente they'll resolve your issue. http://support.eye.fi/cameras/canon/eos-1d_mark_ii

For me major difference was Canon having ISO 100 - 6400 for shooting from bright to dim light whereas Nikon D3100 only has ISO up to 3200. That makes Canon a much better option as far picture clarity in dim light is concerned. I do agree that it is 12 mp but that's not too less compared to 14mp. Major CONS of canon do include 720mp video but if video isn't that important, i would stick with CANON..

Ended up buying canon T1i instead of T3... will be in my hands next week. Bought it from Walmart for 629. Amazon price was 709 for the same camera. Letting you guys know if anyone is interested in buying Canon T1i. it is a 15MP camera with 720p video at 30fps and 1080p with 20fps. I really don't care for video part but it was really good deal compared to what best buy or amazon was asking for same camera.

To Tom Martin or anyone who can help, excluding video, why is the EOS 50D 15.1MP a higher quality than the T1i or T2i?I'm trying to decide between the three and when I look at the list of specs for them, they all seem almost identical from what I can tell. I'm sure I'm missing something. Does the 50D have a more rugged build?Thanks to anyone who contributes an opinion on this.

I'm more concerned with the image quality issue. They're getting 12 MP onto a really tiny sensor. The pixel density is 43 MP per square CM. That's really pushing it. Serious cameras (like DSLRs) tend to be under 5, sometimes even under 2. They use way bigger sensors, up to the size of a 35 mm picture, for a similar or not-much-higher pixel count. On paper this camera is exactly what I need, but I'm going to wait for some reviews before I put my money down for one. (Shouldn't have to wait too long, fortunately.)

Yes it is. That's the reason I bought it greater clarity of pictures than the higher MP, particularly outside. Great all around, best camera!

Not bad, I would suggest going to the more expensive no-flash if you can afford it? If not this is a great camera for the money, I had one mature deer get spooked from the leds firing. Takes nice pics, make sure you go with a 4gb or bigger card and what Browning recommends for sd cards.

Sounds like a great suggestion, thanks. Do you use a 8G will this camera? Would I be correct in assuming you'd get about 1700 pics at fairly standard settings?

I personally have the 850sw and purchased it because a friend had it and loved it. I think that an extra 2 megapixels is overkill and merely ads to the noise at higher ISO settings. As long as you follow the scene modes you will get very good shots. 8 megapixels is plenty enough for the crop factor to enlarge so an extra 2x is a mute issue with me.

I am using it with my X-E1. I do not have any problems with the speed thus far for my uses (enthusiast photography, architectural and stills). I do like the quality, very sharp and great colors. I am not sure what kind of speed you are looking for and unfortunately I have not used the Canon lens you mention. If speed is desired, F2.8 is desirable, but as far as performance and price point is concerned; this is the sweet spot for me. Also, read some of the reviews on the purchase page. Very good info there as well. Good luck!

Well, it's just the size of the sensor troubles me. What kind of picture is this going to take at even a 400 ISO? Nevermind 800 or higher.I just wonder if it's worth getting a camera this big when the sx200IS can be had for almost half the price, it's way easier to carry, and when you add the chdk firmware, will be almost as functional.I suppose if this were to be your only camera, but personally, I'd like to see what they do with the Rebel, either later this year or next. Or if I have a "rich uncle die", buy the 5D Mark II ;-)

Yes. It's relative, though. For instance, not as fast as my Canon 5D MkII, but much faster than my Olympus Pen EP2. Wish I could give you stats, but I don't know them. The Sony is my go to camera for times when I need smaller size. I'm very happy with it and have had no issues with shutter lag, slow focus or any of the other problems with some small cameras. To say it's my backup for my 5D MkII is an indication of how it compares to the larger, far more expensive machine.

I'm deciding between this camera and Canon's new PowerShot 12.1MP w/ 4x zoom. Opinions, anyone?

Thanks very much. By the way, we have a Canon G12. I feel it too distorting both colours and proportions and of course slow between 2 clicks. What would you suggest to improve on "fidelity" and speed: A. Canon S100 over Nikon P7100 (and Olympus XZ-1?)?B. Olympus E-PM1 over Nikon J1? C. or Nikon V1 solves everything? PS. I have no Nikon lenses so I am not stuck on Nikon. Thanks

HiThere does not appear to be any lag. Hit the shutter button and you have it. By the way, I am a professional photographer and I owned the original RX100. Did not like it as I felt the lens and/or sensor was simply not sharp enough for my needs. I sold it after 3 months. The Mark 3 is fabulous and Sony has fixed the problems PLUS added an EVF. This camera lens/sensor combo is really sharp and I am delighted with it. It is my "carry around" always camera.Good luck and well wishes!- Phil Johannes

I can't pre-order... Too little faith in canon cameras when they are released. I will probably get it down the road (feb-march) if their aren't any issues. Would upgrade from mkII. Would be nice if canon could release the 1d and 1ds as one camera, and just allow us to switch between high fps and high MP. But alas, I'll refrain.
