Sample Photos

The following sample photos were shot with a pre-production sample of the T1i, and there could be signfiicant image quality differences in the final shipping camera. Still, these shots do provide an indication of what we can expect. Clicking on any of the large photos below will call up the full-size original,. Beneath each image is a set of actual pixel-size crops.

Outdoor Sample
x Focal length: 35mm
Aperture: f/8
Shutter: 1/200
ISO: 200

This was shot at the Sands Point Preserve on Long Island on an overcast day with the camera set to Program mode,auto white balance and evaluative metering.

Sample images have been taken with a Beta (Pre-production) unit of the EOS Rebel T1i Digital SLR camera.
x x x x The details of the stone structure are captured nicely, though there is some color fringing at the corners of the lens, as shown in the rightmost crop.
Close-Up Sample
x Focal Length: 20mm
Aperture: f/4
Shutter: 1/40 sec.
ISO: 400

These flowers were shot under fluorescent lights using the automatic white balance setting; the camera handled the challegne very effectively, delivering accurate colors. But are the flowers live or fake? See the images below.

High-ISO Sample
x Focal Length: 33mm
Aperture: f/5.6
Shutter: 1/80 sec.
ISO: 1600

This Mexican mask was shot in a room with a mixture of fluorescent and daylight illumination, with the ISO speed pushed to 1600 to get an initial impression of the camera's image noise performance.

Wildlife Sample
x Focal Length: 25mm
Aperture: f/5
Shutter: 1/50
ISO: 400

We couldn't find any ducks outdoors so we brought our own and photographed them under a mixture of fluorescent and daylight illumination (through a conference-room window).

Texture Sample
x Focal Length: 55mm
Aperture: f/10
Shutter: 1/200 seconds
ISO: 200

Peering in through a window a the Sands Point Preserve we found a scene with a wide variety of textures, from the crinkled plastic film behind the window to book pages, stone walls and a wooden bench.
