michael_estrella Posted May 5, 2001 Share Posted May 5, 2001 I'm interested in the EOS3 and the N1. Their prices are about the same at B&H. I just want to know which one is better of the two?Does the N1 has the ETTL feature? <p> thanks, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colin_miller3 Posted May 5, 2001 Share Posted May 5, 2001 It depends on what features you need/want. The 3 has E-TTL where the 1N does not. The 1N is capable of 6 fps and the 3 can hit 7 fps with the PB-E2 booster and NiMH pack from Canon. Spendy. 6 fps with AA alkalines.<p>Open two new browser windows and look at the <a href="http://www.usa.canon.com/camcambin/cameras/35mm/slr/eos1n.html"> EOS 1N</a> and the <a href="http://www.usa.canon.com/camcambin/cameras/35mm/slr/eos3.html"> EOS 3</a> for yourself. They both have their respective places in 35mm photography or Canon wouldn't offer them, no?<p>btw, the 1NRS can hit 10 fps, but it is a monster, weighing in at over 3 lbs. No lens....<p>Tell us more about your needs for one of these cameras. Weddings? Pro sports? Shooting your kids? Portraits? Commercial? Fashion? Newspaper PJ? Self protection from muggers? ;)<p> Would the 7e be enough camera for your at only about $520? Remember, it's not the camera that takes the photo, it's you and that piece of glass out in front of the camera. The 7e is actually a bit faster in some respects than the pro camera EOS 3. And newer. Yes it's true. ECF reaction time for one. Don't hold me to it, but I think the 7e is twice as fast. Not saying the 3 is a slouch, but the 7e will react in 60ms. The EOS 3 is slower.
