Vintage digital photography
Posted by Joel Richards on January 25, 2009
I recently bought a canon d2000/kodak dcs520 off ebay, the 3rd model Canon digital SLR, released in 1998.
With just under 2 megapixels, it can’t compete with even the cheapest DSLR nowadays with resolution, but build quality it’s great.
The 350D next to the DCS 520.
Dpreview described it: “it’s the Jaguar of the digital photography world where all else are Fords”
Surprisingly digital point and shoots have been out much longer than digital SLRs, the RC-701 was released in July 1986, well before the first Canon DSLR in 1995
Head over to the Kyanmedia pool to see some sample images:
