Canon EOS 3000D is an entry-level DSLR camera for who are upgrading from smartphones and are looking for a reasonably priced option to further explore their interest. Smartphones can provide almost DSLR-like quality and be well under the budget, yet they still cannot yield the type of sharpness, vividness and natural pictures which DSLRs can churn out.
Design and Build
The camera also has a 2.7-inch (230,000 dots) TFT display that you can use for composing and viewing shots. The major design change that Canon has had to make with the EOS 3000D concerns the buttons and the dials on the camera. The device has a single main dial to change the shooting modes and the same dial is also used for switching it on and off. The EOS 3000D sports a 2.7-inch LCD screen. There’s also a 95%-coverage optical viewfinder (pretty standard on entry-level DSLRs).
Speed And Performance
With a quoted top shooting speed of 3.0 fps, putting the 3000D through a time trial is pretty much an academic exercise and it certainly can’t make full use of our high-speed reference memory card, a Lexar 128 GB Professional SDXC UHS-II/U3 (Speed Class 3) ‘2000x’ device. It offers auto White balance with the imaging sensor. Then there is viewfinder of type pentamirror, with coverage of approx 95%. Beginners can also shoot using the Live view mode that uses the screen as the viewfinder. The mode dial can be used to choose the appropriate scene before shooting. A “Shoot by ambiance” mode is also present to assist beginners.
( Sample Photo)
With the DIGIC 4+ image processor, the standard ISO speed reaches 12,800. This helps in reducing motion blur caused by slow shutter speeds, which is common especially under low light conditions. It also gives full resolution shooting at 3 fps, which looks ideal for shooting sharp sports and action pictures. The device is available in market with 18-55mm kit lens by default.
Pricing Factor
The Canon EOS 3000D is priced at Rs. 22,990 in Indian market.
