 Great product -- so glad I purchased September 29, 2008
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I had never used an SLR or digital SLR prior to buying this camera and I love it. I thought it was fairly easy to get up to speed (the Canon on-line tutorial is great). I have had the camera for about a month and just returned from an East African safari and the pictures we got are unreal...I am so excited and happy with the camera. It worked well in so many different situations (low light with gorillas in the jungle to full sun on the African plains). I would buy it again in a heartbeat (and this coming from someone who had never used an SLR and now would never go back for a trip like we just took). LOVE IT!!!
We also bought the Image Stabalized 70-300mm lens and this is the one I used most on the trip but I would use the lens that comes with the kit for most of the shots I take with family/friends and around the house.
Great camera for newbies September 27, 2008

Having just gotten back into photography after a decades long absence I bought the XSi 4 months ago. It has been an excellent purchase. If you are new to dslr's I would recommend taking a class at your local junior college in how to use one. It helped me understand what one of these cameras can really do and has really improved my enjoyment using the camera. The pictures I've taken with the XSi have been amazing and the kit lens with the IS feature is top notch. Don't get swayed by all the hype you read online about dslr's and invest in one that costs thousands, the XSi is a great camera at a great price that will give you anything you want in picture quality.
Perfect replacement camera. September 24, 2008
After having my original Rebel stolen, I replaced it with the Xsi. The shutter speed is super fast, the viewing screen is huge so you know right away if you got the shot, and the quality of indoor pics is fantastic. The battery charges quickly and lasts a long time. I couldn't be happier with my purchase. No complaints - the only thing I miss about my old Rebel is the memory card that was still in it.
Excellent camera September 23, 2008
I bought this camera after having owned the Rebel EOS DS6041 for years. I liked the old camera so much that I purchased this newer model. This camera is easy to use and the photo quality is excellent. I would recommend this camera to anyone looking to purchase a digital slr type camera.
 Power problem, inconsistent pictures September 22, 2008
7 out of 21 found this review helpful
I have been using this camera consistently since the birth of my twin daughters 2 months ago and am very disappointed. There is a power charging problem with the flash that rapid pictures taken result in a "Busy" error that is not resolved for about 10 seconds. So forget about rapid pictures. Also, repeat pictures that are taken turn out very inconsistent when using the flash, which results in very different pictures with very different lighting characteristics. Apparently the flash brightness varies, probably again due to the flash charging problem. Buy another camera.
