4 out of 5 stars More Than I Could Wish For!!!   May 22, 2008
 1 out of 3 found this review helpful

I have used many different point and shoot cameras. My father owned a photo studio and has many film SLR's laying around the house, several of which I shot with from time to time. I always looked to make the upgrade to a DSLR but couldn't afford it. Finally, I started making some money and a DSLR was one of the first things on my wish list, though I still have a fairly low income.

This camera has been amazing. I have owned it for one month now and every day I get better at shooting with it.

Pros:
8 Megapixle sensor is high resolution but no so high as to kill your computers hard drive
The camera is light weight and fairly small
The kit lens is suprisingly good
For the beginning DSLR shooter the price is unbeatable considering the quality of camera
Canon EF lenses are an investment worth making because they fit the entire range of Canon DSLRs
Manual functions are fantastic
Dedicated settings screen
Great battery life

Cons:
The 8MP sensor isn't the highest on the markets (see Rebel XTi)
The cameras light weight body feels slightly cheap
No spot meter
Small viewing screen on rear
Slightly out of date (for price this is a plus)
Slightly slow burst of 3fps with a total of 9 burst shots on full res.


One last note: I bought the Amazon Warehouse "refurbished" model. I saved around 50 clams from "new". I can see no difference between it and a "new" one. Everything is perferct.

This was the best 400 plus dollars I have ever spent. Read every review, I doubt you can find something negative about this.


5 out of 5 stars Rebel XT - A No-Brainer for Entry-Level DSLR   May 20, 2008
Purchased at the end of April and took it with me on an early May trip to Vancouver and the Canadian Rockies. The landscape pictures that come out on my Dell Ultrasharp 2007FP monitor really blow me away. There are poster-quality shots taken at the Butchart's Garden, Lake Louise, Lake Emerald and on top of the Banff overviewing Bow Valley. This DSLR model is the least expensive currently only offered at Amazon, if you like to take your photography experience to another notch while not busting your pocket, this is it. Since DSLR cameras depend primarily on the lens, you can always start off with the kit lens, and gradually migrate into other pro lens given your shooting habits. Sure there are other newer models available from Canon as well, but $400 saved for an investment of a much better lens make this one a no-brainer. In essence, I highly recommend this camera, it is a Canon DSLR at $450 with future upgradability, I love every bit of it.


5 out of 5 stars Very Good product and working pefectly   May 20, 2008
I bought this for my personal, family use and this camera takes excelent pics. i dont miss any pic with this as it takes very fast and accurate to the object. i have 18-55mm lens this has bit less range to zoom, i may have to go for bit longer one. i am using cam from past 6months and it works great.
