Difficult to tell w/o seeing the image and EXIF, but as a guess: He might have a defective lens, or he might be aware that the default in-camera sharpening in the XT is much less than in his Sony (there is a setting to change that, tho').

Who knows? Maybe he has auto focus turned off. Maybe he has it set to shutter priority at 1/15 th. Maybe it's broken. Maybe he is just an idiot, or even a troll. There are a whole lot of Rebel XT s out there and , believe it or not, almost all of them take good pictures. > Text below is review of Rebel XT by some guy: > [quoted text clipped - 4 lines] > > Wht did he do wrong with camera? Whoever wrote this is barely literate. Why worry about what he's saying? > Text below is review of Rebel XT by some guy: > [quoted text clipped - 4 lines] > > Wht did he do wrong with camera? When the first Digital Rebel came out lots of people had trouble getting got shots with the camera set to full auto and using all seven(?) focus points. IIRC, in the auto modes with the flash up the 300D seemed to often go to 1/60th of a second, which is just too darn slow for most novices to hand-hold. For people who can't be bothered to learn how the digital cameras work, P&S or DSLR, I tell them to try Shutter Priority mode and keep it at 1/200 or higher if possible. It worked for a couple friends and built their confidence. >Text below is review of Rebel XT by some guy: > [quoted text clipped - 4 lines] > >Wht did he do wrong with camera? Possibly the camera/lens is faulty. Probably, he has no idea what he's doing. I seriously doubt that Canon put a counter in his camera that makes every other picture blurry. It seems that he thinks money will buy him the ability to make good photographs. Such people are disabused of those notions regularly. SignatureArnold Schwarzenegger was at the Golden Globes Monday to give away the award for Best Motion Picture Drama. He's no newcomer to the winner's circle himself. The Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas once voted him most lifelike over Al Gore. > Text below is review of Rebel XT by some guy: > [quoted text clipped - 4 lines] > > Wht did he do wrong with camera? Most likely he assumed that the camera is responsible for taking good pictures. When people like that buy a DSLR they are shocked when the camera actually magnifies their mistakes instead of correcting them. People like that should stay with simple point & shoots. You can take better pictures with a DSLR, but you have to put the effort into it. >> Text below is review of Rebel XT by some guy: >> [quoted text clipped - 16 lines] > into > it. So THAT'S where I'm going wrong! >Text below is review of Rebel XT by some guy: > [quoted text clipped - 4 lines] > >Wht did he do wrong with camera? He might work for Nikon and not even own the Rebel. KS It might be as simple as this: Use the shutter-release button correctly The shutter-release button must be pressed in two stages. The first step locks in exposure and focus. The second step takes the picture. Incorrect use of the shutter button may cause blurred images. > Text below is review of Rebel XT by some guy: > [quoted text clipped - 4 lines] > > Wht did he do wrong with camera? |
