Canon EOS 350D Review

By Ian Bell April 30, 2005

Quote from the review:

“We could forgive the first digital reflex camera under the conventional borderline price of 1000 USD for many things. But still, the commercial limitations of the functionality were too obvious. Good similar cameras from the competing manufacturers and alternative firmware versions seem to have changed the company’s position on the state of affairs. And here is a fast and full-featured 8Mp camera in the same “below $1000″ class. If you have been waiting for a sterling reflex camera at a reasonable price, this camera is worth a closer look. It is hardly possible to manufacture a better camera in this class (relatively inexpensive reflex cameras).”

Canon’s Ivy Cliq+ 2 instant camera can print circular stickers

canon ivy cliq 2 announced lifestyle

Photographers rejoiced when Polaroid brought back the square instant print with its digital printers, but Canon is bringing a new format to its latest round of digital instant cameras -- and it’s one photographers haven’t asked for. The Canon Ivy Cliq+ 2 and Ivy Cliq 2 can now print circular stickers as well as the 2 x 3-inch prints of the previous generation.

The precut sticker papers print two circular pictures to a sheet, using the same Zink technology as the regular prints. Zink uses embedded ink crystals instead of cartridges, which means you only have to load and buy the specialty paper. The Canon Mini Print App offers new settings to choose from the circular sticker sheets or the rectangular print.
