 Great pictures and won't break the bank - or the back January 4, 2007
9 out of 10 found this review helpful
I decided to take the plunge and try a DSLR and I love this camera. I took it on a photo trip this fall where a bunch of guys had bigger more "pro" style gear - I could hardly lift some of their cameras. For me, this is perfect. The grip fits my girly hands well, and it's comfortable to carry all day. The only downside to the light weight is that when I put my biggish zoom lens on it, it feels unbalanced, especially on a tripod. I've taken just over 2000 pictures with it, and I've not yet had any problems. I splurged on the Canon Zoom Telephoto EF 70-300mm f/4-5.6 image stabilized lens and it's super for nature photography. The image stabilizer lets me hand-hold it with acceptable-to-me results down to about 1/30 sec - better with a tripod of course but that's not always an option.
If you're considering jumping to SLR for the first time, it's well worth looking into a class or a beginner's book or video. You'll need to wrap your mind around the aperture/exposure/depth of field relationships to really get the most out of the camera and make good lens purchase decisions for the type of photography you want to do. I had used film SLRs ages ago, but I took a one-day class at a local camera shop right after buying the camera and it was really helpful.
The Digital Rebel Just Keeps Getting Better! January 4, 2007

I bought the camera for my wife -- it is her third in the successive generations of Digital Rebels. She thinks the camera is fantastic. Each has been an enhancement to the prior, with the base model having been quite good to begin with.
 Rebel XTi ay yi yi !! January 4, 2007
36 out of 91 found this review helpful
Wow, is Amazon going to be sorry that they asked me to write a review on this product!! This camera is such a disappointing piece of junk that we returned it. Upon further research on the internet, we found that we were one of many people whose XTi produced photos that were incredibly dark and underexposed, even though we bought and used the Canon EX430 Flash with it. Sent some photos to Canon, and they confirmed that camera was defective. We then went to [..]and bought another XTi, only to have the same results. Sent some of that camera's photos to Canon, and they again said the camera was not working correctly! Their tech supervisor told us that the "green box" fully automatic setting is just a marketing ploy and this model is really incapable of taking a good photo when set on full automatic settings. Why could my film SLR take an excellent photo on auto focus, auto shutter, auto aperature, etc.? Don't buy this piece of junk!!
Great entry level digital SLR January 4, 2007
7 out of 8 found this review helpful
I purchased this camera in October to take on a trip, and it did not let me down. This is a great entry-level digital SLR. I bought the body only and purchased the Canon EFS 17-85mm lens with image stabilization. I think it is a big step up from the lens included with the kit (I borrowed the base lens from someone to compare). I previously owned the Canon Powershot G2, and I think the Rebel XTi is the next step up the line.
One observation for those used to framing the picture through the LCD, this is not the camera for you. The Digital Rebel XTi requires you to frame the picture through the viewfinder. I would recommend you do this regardless, but I know people that are confused (and even bothered) when they can't preview the picture in the LCD window.
To really get your money's worth, I would recommend that you purchase a field guide or take a class. I was fortunate enough to find a class specific to the Canon Digital Rebel XTi. This really helps with understanding the advanced capabilities of the camera. A good class also can improve your overall photography skills.

This Canon digital rebel XTi 10 is so easy to understand and use. My pictures actually look really good! I am learning how to use all the advanced features with ease. Soon I will be as functional as the pros.
