Canon Speedlite 320EX Flash Review

The Canon Speedlite 320EX flash is a completely new model for the manufacturer in 2011. It's been designed to bridge the gap between the 270EX II and the 430EX II, and it is somewhat of a hybrid between the two. But how does it match up to Canon's other highly successful speedlites?

Canon EF-S 18-200mm f3.5/5.6 IS Lens Review

With an 11X focal length range, the Canon 18-200mm is the manufacturer's most ambitious consumer lens. Complete with image stabilization, it's an impressive offering. But can the lens cope with such a wide focal length range?

Canon EF-S 18-55mm f3.5/5.6 IS Lens Review

The Canon EF-S 18-55mm is part of the manufacturer's cheaper range of digital lenses, designed to fit on APS-C crop frame cameras. This lens is the "kit" lens, which is usually sold with entry- and consumer-level DSLRs.

Canon EF-S 10-22mm f3.5/4.5 USM Lens

The Canon EF-S 10-22mm f3.5/4.5 USM lens is the answer for users of APS-C format cameras looking for a wide-angle lens. It equates to a 16-35mm in 35mm full frame format, so provides users with an extremely wide-angle lens.

Canon EF-S 17-85mm f4-5.6 IS USM Lens Review

Canon's EF-S range of lenses is designed to fit only on Canon's crop frame APS-C cameras. The 17-85mm lens was introduced to provide a APS-C lens that is the equivalent of the manufacturer's very popular 28-135mm EF lens.

Canon EF 50mm f1.4 USM Lens Review

The Canon EF 50mm f1.4 lens is based on the classic design, from 1971, of the manual FD 50mm. This is the lens that I myself use in my professional life, and this Canon EF 50mm review shows a very good lens.

Canon EF 50mm f1.8 II Lens Review

The Canon EF 50mm f1.8 II is the manufacturer's cheapest 50mm lens. Canon also makes f1.4 and f1.2 versions, but both cost more money. So does this cheap and cheerful lens provide enough quality to make it a viable alternative?

Canon Speedlite 580EX II Flash Review

Canon's 580 flashgun is the manufacturer's top of the range offering. It's a powerful speedlite, offering a host of options for photographers.

Canon Speedlite 430EX II Flash Review

Canon's 430 flashgun is firmly aimed at enthusiastic consumers and sits in the middle of the manufacturer's range of speedlites.
