Pros: Professional features in a consumer minded package

Review: This Christmas we upgraded from a Nikon 4500 point and shoot (digicam) to a Canon XTi (Rebel 400D). There were several reasons for this and I will try to explain my decision making logic below: The first thing to consider for me was cost. I found ...

Pros: High resolution, sensor cleaning, fast

Cons: a little on the light side

The Bottom Line: All those people buying Sony DSC and Kodak 800 series, trade them in, your camera is ready - a real dSLR at a regular persons price

Review: The Rebel XTi is the newest member of the Digital Rebel family As befits the market leader in digital cameras they have taken a successful product and improved it. Where the original Rebel sported 6.3MP, the XT sported 8MP the new XTi sports 10.1MP ...

Pros: inexpensive, RAW image, many lenses to select, high resolution, 2.5" LCD...

The Bottom Line: the amount of money for that much quality => excellent

Pros: fast, amazing resolution, sensor cleaner, sturdy build, options galore, nice monitor, good software package, Canon

Cons: I'll probably find some cons sometime. Right? We'll see.

The Bottom Line: If you want a really good DSLR then this is the one to get.

Review: While the word perfect sums this camera up, well, perfectly, I'll elaborate a little. I just received this camera last night and I've already taken better pictures than I was ever able to with any digital or SLR. While it's my first DSLR, the research ...

Pros: Features, comparative price, fits my hand, easy to use as is, takes great photos

Cons: not easy to carry and keep handy, no zoom above 55mm, price

The Bottom Line: Buy it, you will like it. I bought mine on the Sep 3 and 30 words is not enough to get started explaining all the reasons I like it.

Review: I haven't been able to take anything except typical photos since my Minolta 101 wore out. I normally used a 55mm 1.2 or 75-150 mm lens with either ASA 160 or 400 Ectachrome. The Xti is taking a broader range of photos at mind blowing resolutions. ...

Pros: Ease of use, many features, quality images, sensor cleaning, light enough for astrophotography

Cons: viewfinder too small for astro focusing, kit lens are not value, body a little small

The Bottom Line: Good quality images from a camera most people will find invaluable. Easy to operate with many extra features. Speed, Resolution, Accesories, Price are all winnners.

Pros: Good user interface large LCD monitor with 160° viewing angles

Cons: nothing so far I can find

The Bottom Line: Nice camera and improved version from Canon. Trust Canon for quality.

Review: Almost exactly three years since Canon changed the digital SLR market forever (with the $1,000 EOS 300D) they announced the third generation of their affordable entry level series, the EOS 400D (Digital Rebel XTi). This new camera follows the design of ...

Pros: High resolution, great LCD screen, fast.

Cons: not so comfortable in hand, or nose.

Review: Right out of the box this camera blew all my other pictures away. The 10 megapixels is incredible. I am an artist an need the extra detail for my model studies and reproductions, and the XTi fit the bill and more. This is probably the best camera I've ...
