Canon Surpassed Themselves in 2010 with A Pair Of Winners
From humble 1 and 2 MP beginnings we have seen DLSR's reach double figure MP breakthroughs to take over from SLR's in just about every way. Remember waiting days or weeks to see the result of your pictures only once your film has been developed, far too late to retake bad shots?
(I was reminded of the CD revolution. Some diehards remained loyal to analogue (film) technology in the belief that Digital still had a long way to go.It did not take long for them to be proved wrong The last few years have seen the MP race bounding into the teens and even 20+MP's. Film was overtaken at the consumer level, long before the 10MP mark was reached.
Today just about every mobile includes a Digital Camera and Pocket size digitals cost next to nothing. High MP's are ubiquotous
So the SLR players like Canon, Nikon, Pentax, Sony, Minolta and all the rest had to come up with more than MP's. MP's are no longer a distinguishing factor. The race among SLR (Now DSLR) makers is all about:
Processers that can deliver high FPS and Great file sizes and store them in milliseconds. The complimentary Optics technology we find in lenses. The architecture behind the lenses, including the lens electronics vs the camera electronics and where to house the function such as image stailisation. Sensor sizes. Architecture - Lenses, sensors, processor, storage. In-camera artificial intelligence, like light recognition, scene detection, face detect, blink detect, light and colour analysis.
Camera technology, especially DSLRs, have embraced a wide spectrum of leading edge scientific innovation, from micro electronics, micro mechanics, software and optics.
Canon and Nikon have the lions share of the market, fighting head to head for 80% of the comsumer spend on DSLR's. In a world market this vast being in the race in the remaining 20% is no mean feat and Sony, Pentax, Minolta, Kodak and several others are holding their own technology wise.
What then makes for a winner if everyone has access to or has developed leading edge technology?
There is no doubt that once you have the technology, marketing is the next big gun. Brand recognition will carry a product over some rough patches, but if everybody excells you need to be innovative, imaginative and hit the market's soft spots or get into their hearts, whatever the case may be.
In the race between Canon and Nikon, Canon has led with higher MP's. Nikon has an edge with a slightly larger sensor and lower end pentaprism usage. Both can claim excellent ergonomics and Nikon fans always refer to some form of 'right feel' to their favourite models.
The Canon 60D reveals a camera that has truly hit a sweet spot at the prosumer level and the Canon Rebel T2i was embraced by a very large amateur and professional base. See the reviews here: canon Rebel t2i and the Canon EOS 60d review.
The focus for DSLR's in 2010 went beyond the MP race into other functions. The rapid invasion of DSLR's into the Video market proved to be a good wave to ride. DSLRs bcame infested with video features, at first modest, but rising rapidly in sophistication. One DSLR after another came out with new innovative features:
Video and sound, HD video, Frames per second, True HD, live view, autofocus, live focus, in camera editing, better and better LCD technology and external sound. Not least was the spate of increases in pixel options from 640 to 1080, etc.
In this frantic race cluttered with constantly improving features, with each manufacturer trying to find just the right mix at the right price to capture more consumer spend, Canon's EOS Rebel T2i and EOS 60D found two sweet spots, at the higher end of the Rebel range and in the middle of the very narrow Prosumer range.
Both Cameras were announced with an array of leading edge features that seemed to be right on the consumer Dollar target. The main features that made people take note and spend their well earned dollars were:
- Live view... DSLR's were behind compacts in this department...)
- A vastly improved HD movie capability
- External sound Jack
- Yet again higher pixel Sensor(18MP)
- Very user friendly interfaces
With these two cameras, Canon hit the sweet spot in the DSLR market in 2010. Can they follow this up in 2011? They seemed to have a good start in 2011 with the announcment of the T3i, but the market has responded sluggishly. The T2i and D60 at either end of the T3i seems to leave it in the shade.
Watch Nikon and Sony this year. We can expect an exciting come back from both of them. Nikon'd D5100 seems to be more on target. Nikon and Sony are not resting on their lorals. The D5100 came out punching.
