Digital Shot

Last week all the Nikon fanboys supporters were out in full-force critiquing the D5000, so we couldn’t let another week slip by without giving Canon advocates (and haters, we don’t discriminate) a similar chance with the T1i. Hitting the market at just about the same time, this well-specced entry-level DSLR packed a few niceties than alternative units simply did not: 1080p video, a 15.1 megapixel sensor and a price tag below $1,000. That said, there are still some areas that we reckon Canon could’ve improved upon, and if you feel the same way, we’d love to hear about it. Are you kosher with the 20fps 1080p mode? Is the image quality up to snuff? How’s that stock lens treating you? Cut loose, won’tcha?

How would you change Canon’s T1i DSLR? originally appeared on Engadget on Sat, 13 Jun 2009 00:41:00 EST. Please see our terms for use of feeds.

If you haven’t been following this phenomenon in geek culture, you’ve truly been doing yourself a grave disservice. Not quite an Obama-level disservice, but we digress. Just a few months after refreshing its SATA HDD dock to bring along multicard support, the outfit has done the multimedia crowd one better by offering up an HDMI-equipped version. As expected, the device supports 2.5- and 3.5-inch SATA hard drives and can connect to one’s PC via USB 2.0; from there, just hook up your component jacks or HDMI cable and enjoy crystal clear playback of whatever content you’ve got slammed in there. Too bad all this fun will set you back $79, but we suppose it’s still a wee bit cheaper than an unadulterated media streamer.
