Canon's new T2i

| 0 Comments
Canon just announced their new 18-megapixel T2i (also known as the 550D) digital SLR with 1920x1080 24p HD video recording for only $799 (body only, $899 with kit lens). Filmmakers and video geeks are pretty excited. With all the desired video modes (24p, 25p, 30p @ 1080 and 50, 60 @ 720), manual control, 18-megapixels, full range of Canon EF lenses, and ISO range from 100-6400 (ie: great in low light), what's not to like? This is the little brother to the Canon 7D, but don't overlook it because it is cheaper. This camera just brought HD filmmaking and video production (as long as you know the limitations and workflows) to the masses in style. Check out my Amazon store for a recommended HDSLR starter package!

Sonnet SATA RAID Rebate

Sonnet has a new rebate offer promoting their Fusion D500P five-bay SATA RAID box for road and office use. Buy the box plus a SATA card for your desktop and an ExpressCard for your laptop and get a $130 rebate. Seems like a nice deal if you are in the market for such a device before August 31, 2007.
I set up one of these Sonnet boxes for a client several weeks ago and it was a very user-friendly system and speedy in performance. I think this is a pretty nice SOHO or small business RAID box, yet it goes far beyond "basic" with speeds in excess of 200 MB/second.
