146:- Knowledge isn't just a general encyclopedia, but a specialized encyclopedia too. An encyclopedia of photographic equipment would certainly contain this, which is almost certainly Canon's last professional film camera and groundbreaking in a number of respects. I agree that the current article is pretty crap and nowhere near the standard we could have, and should not be written like a marketing brochure. For proof that an article on a camera model can be much better than this, see

and they never get much serious attention in the photographic press. SLR cameras, however, can generally have about five paragraphs of sourced useful info written about them, and I think that's sufficient for an article. Remember, also, that camera equipment fans definitely find these things "notable" enough, just as automobile fans do (I haven't noticed anyone wanting to get rid of articles on automobile models).

IMO, having individual articles makes sense for most of these; the information including photo and specifications would be rather unwieldy in a list form. I'd agree with listifying most compact digital cameras, for instance, because there are so many, sources for more than stats are hard to find,

Valid subject for an encyclopedia. Every camera model from the major makers (and many from the minors) is reviewed in the various magazines. They all merit articles. Companies make far too many models to put them all in one article. Features vary too widely for any table or list.
150:, which is a featured article (yes, I wrote most of it, but that's not really the point). Extensive sources exist to make this a much better article, including reviews, news articles in the photographic press, in-depth analyses of its performance, etc.
127:
Non-notable commercial product. Knowledge is not a Canon catalog. Knowledge is not a camera guide. Completely unreferenced, written like a marketing brochure, including grandiose "all needs" assertions.

266:. Some guideline for cameras should probably be created to examine the most notable breakthroughs but then simply mention the other releases in some minor way.
