5 out of 5 stars What a Camera!   January 6, 2009
Purchased the Canon for my wife for Christmas, she loves it!! She wanted something not too difficalt to use and that would get her great quality pictures, this Canon is everything she could ask for!!


5 out of 5 stars Great product   January 6, 2009
I am kind of new to the DSLR photography, but I think this camera is awesome. The picture quality is outstanding. The controls are very easy to use. The menu is self explanatory and intuitive. I love big LCD display, that allows to see the picture quality right after taking the picture.br /br /The two things I would improve:br / - replace menu navigation buttons with something that responds better (e.g. scrolling ring) br / - the grip. It seems like I could use a bit more handle. br /br /The lens works great for me. It has a decent angle for taking pictures inside and outside. br /br /For taking pictures indoors I would definitely recommend adding an external flash also from Canon.


5 out of 5 stars (not yet received)   January 6, 2009
It started in my life with an AE1 and Canon has progressed through my life. I bought a Rebel XSi for my 17 year old daughter in California this Christmas and she has explored California showing me snow and mountains and different shorelines as well as beautiful sunsets. Although we in Florida have the latter, she's opening up my vision of California as well as her vision to photography. So now, with some saved money, I have also purchased a Rebel XSi. Its my turn to revive my passion of phography. (It supposedly arrives this Friday!)


4 out of 5 stars Pretty Nice so far   January 4, 2009

This is a pretty good camera so far, I don't really see many problems with it. However there are a few things that bother me right now, on is that it's a slightly smaller size than I need with my hands anyway, I did read the specs just the feel of the camera is a a bit off compared to my previous canon film slr's and there is no surprise there. Another is that the digital noise has been somewhat bothersome on some of my night photography but no more than anticipated, noise doesn't have the same charm that film grain has though. Aside from a few minor complaints about size and noise of the camera, I'd like to be able to step down to 50 iso or even 25 maybe that could be done with a firmware update down the line. And I would have loved it to be full frame at this price but I can't complain I don't have enough money to buy a higher end camera. The lens is nice but nothing fantastic, IS works good for about 2 or maybe 3 stops which is swell. I've been using it heavily since late December and so far I feel confident in my decision to buy this camera. The colors are accurate and shooting in RAW helps to maintain great detail in the image. All in all its a nice camera for an introduction to digital nothing spectacular but its doing well enough for me.br /br /On a side note I've been playing a lot with mounting other brand lenses on this camera coming up with somewhat of a lomo feel to the digital world without messing around with photoshop. So far I've used a holga, and diana lens and been able to produce some lets call them interesting images, still working on the best way to mount them but I'll try to post some images once I get it worked out. br /br /I hope the review helps and that I didn't babble on too much, its a nice camera but you get what you pay for don't expect the best but you can make great images from it still.


5 out of 5 stars Amazing camera   January 3, 2009

I have been waiting for DSLR technology to reach this level: 12.2MP, better than 3 frame/s speed combined with an 8GB memory card which holds 1300+ images at full resolution make this camera perfect, being a Canon with their wide range of lenses makes it the perfect DSLR. I had been watching prices for a while and Amazon not only had the best price, but also delivered the camera to my door on Christmas eve. Good vendor, great camera, and the best price what more could I ask!!
