As a blogger, but more importantly as a mom, I really rely on my camera to capture everything from my projects (also known as my family’s dinner as it gets cold in front of them) to daughters “firsts”.  Unfortunately the camera I have been relying on is a point and shoot so I can’t even count the time times I have been letdown by being unable to capture the shots I need.  When I was asked to check out the Canon EOS Rebel SL1 and put it to the test to capture a memorable experience you now there is no way I could say no!

To celebrate my second pregnancy and put the Canon EOS Rebel SL1 to the test I have decided to hold myself a Baby Sprinkle in early November. 

What is a baby sprinkle you say?  Instead of “showering” the mother with gifts, as in a baby shower,  a sprinkle is a light shower where guests either bring small items or are asked to bring nothing but best wishes.  Since we have most of the necessities already for baby #2, I am asking for best wishes only and inviting only close family to help us celebrate.

Baby Sprinkles are becoming very popular for subsequent babies so I will be sharing with you afterwards some ideas for a baby sprinkle themed party that I can guarantee you will just fall in love with.

I can’t wait to capture my little, but important, event with the help of Canon’s “lightweight, highly-flexible and easy to use DSLR” – the EOS Rebel SL1.  I am hoping to avoid all the blurry photos of Keira’s first birthday thanks to the point and shoot camera!  I’m also going to have to give up control and allow my family to use the EOS Rebel SL1 to make sure there are some shots of me too!

I am confident I’ll be able to capture the event perfectly after having played with the camera a little over the last week.  Thanks to the continuous shooting mode I was able to capture a pretty gorgeous and crisp shot of Keira in all her milk-face, ketchup packet carrying (?) glory.   There is no way I would have been able to capture this with my old point and shoot trying to get one shot at a time of a very Go-go-go toddler.  Can you say blurry pictures?

    It’s 25% smaller, 29% lighter than the compact Rebel T4i.

  138. Visited Canon Canada and something I learned is Canon Canada will consider requests for charities and events in Canada only

  143. The full HD video recording would be at the top of the list with our first baby on the way as weโ€™d want to capture all those little moments!

  144. I like the commitment to the environment. “Canon Canada Inc. formalized its commitment to environmental conservation by creating The Clean Earth Campaign” Way to go!

  145. Something interesting about the Canon Rebel SL1 is the “Movie Servo AF for continuous focus tracking of moving subjects” – one o’ the biggest issues when using an SLP for video is capturing moving objects (often people); many SLRs shut off their auto-focus in video mode! It appears Canon has created a special focus mode just for video.

  146. I learned this:
    “In 2005, Canon Canada was the first Canadian company to receive the Gold Panda Award in recognition of years of support for World Wildlife Fund (WWF)-Canada through its Clean Earth Campaign, and for the central role that environmental issues play in Canon’s management strategy.”

  150. I learned that Canon has been in business since 1973. And they are right here in Mississauga. I also was reminded how much I need a good camera!!!

  151. I like the Kids Scene Mode which freezes the picture, so you can still get a good picture without blur, even when your child won’t sit still.

  152. Canon Security Solutions

    Businesses today face significant risk. Documents and information are core assets of every business that require protection. Canon Security Solutions can help ensure that sensitive information can only be accessed, retrieved or distributed by authorized users thereby safeguarding a valuable corporate asset.

  153. I learnt that Cannon has just released upgrades for the EOS-1D X & EOS-1D C digital SLR cameras which deliver improved control & convenience. I didn’t know they did that.

  154. I read that it is the smallest lightest SLR camera available , I have never used an slr camera because of their size , but smaller would be great

  155. I learned about the CANON iMAGE GATEWAY where you can upload and share up to 10 GB of your photos and videos with friends, family and anyone else you choose – all for free if you have a qualifying product COOL

  156. I wish I had a video camera when Sara was small…so many memories but only in my head…I love that this is a camera as well as a video camera. Plus, 19 mega pixels!!

  157. I learned that in September Cannon Canada and Buffer Festival launched a canadian VIP videomakers competition! That is awesome!

  158. I visited the Canon Website and I liked that you could view and review all of their products. My daughter is in Grade 10 and has taken a great interest in Photography so a good camera would be amzing.

  160. I love the Canon EOS line – they keep coming out with leading edge innovations in their SLR cameras. Always something new. I see with the SL1, you get a small camera with professional quality features that a non-professional user can appreciate.

  161. I am entering your giveaway.
    It would be awesome to win A Canon EOS Rebel SL1 w/ 18-55mm IS STM Lens
    and a Canon EF 40mm f2.8 STM Lens.

    Thank you for having this great giveaway!!!!!!

  162. I love the Cannon Powershot D20. I’m rough on cameras, and not that skilled, so point and shoot, and durability are tops for me.

    (though my photographer boyfriend is trying to teach me things….)

  163. I love that it has continuous shooting, has the wireless feature and that it is lighter and smaller. Looks like a great camera!

  164. I love that the EOS 70D has built-in wireless technology and a remote app* that makes sharing images and videos so easy

  165. I love the wireless features of the printers. It helps to keep things neat and tidy. I also really like the simplicity of using their site. Very easy to find what I’m looking for.

  166. Canon is the BEST camera around, I love the choices they have in camera’s waterproof, also the fact that they have been around for a very long time:)

  167. i learned all the features of the camera – my favs being the HD video and the continuous shooting feature yay!

  168. I love everything but if I had to pick one…. it would be the HD video. Remember when cameras did not record video? That is how old my reliable Canon DSLR is.

  169. I would love to win this… and congrats! My last film camera was the Canon EOS500. They make amazing cameras and lenses. The wireless capabilities is a neat feature.

  170. I love that it has wireless capabilities and that it has continuous shooting so you don’t miss that special moment.
