Canon EOS Rebel Digital vs. Sony DSC-F828

by JDB2 Nov 25, 2004 10:41AM PST

I have a Sony 717 that needs to be replaced. The camera was a lot of fun to use, but I missed the flexability of my old Ricoh 35mm SLR. The focal length is better on the 828, but the Rebel will host a wide array of lenses, at additional costs. Will the Canon give me the instant shot that my 35mm used to offer? I used to like playing with double exposures with the Ricoh, will any digital have such effects.

Various types of double exposure can be done by PhotoShop software.

Example:

Here is a thread from a Digital Rebel forum on the subject of double exposure: Read all the links in the thread.

Instant Shots:
Not such a simple subject since autofocus is dependent upon the lens used.

Here is a page from a Rebel review:
