low end, but great SLR.......2007-12-24

This camera doesn't come with a memory card... I guess I didn't realize that before buying it. Otherwise I might not have thought this was such a great deal. Look into their XTi. I'm pretty sure the shutter speed is significantly faster. Also do research on lenses you might want before you buy. There are some kits that might come with more than one lens.

I'm in love.......2007-12-23

This is probably the best non-breathing thing I have. I absolutely love this thing!!! To be frank I did not compare with Nikon counterparts or other Canon cameras, I also have never used another SLR before so I went with what most reviews said about the XT. Almost bought the XTi but price difference at the time was $200. Plus I love the information screen on these cameras and dont mind the small LCD screen. XTi seems a better deal now as the price difference has shrunk (bye bye XT). Anyways, this is a GREAT camera. Pictures are way way better than a conventional digital camera. Even at ISO 1600 pictures look great. Bought a Canon 50mm 1.8, and Tamron 17-50 F2.8 + Tamron 70-300 lens. Great combo, stored kit lens in the closet (ok lens but kind of boring). I feel like a pro now and plan to learn about photography seriously. Canon 30D and 40D are way sexier, might upgrade later after I build a nice lens collection.

May be a good product, but service is bad.......2007-12-19

The company that sells this camera is not customer friendly,they asked if you have any questions, or concerns, and when I did give a response my order was cancelled, they did not try to fix the problem at all, and I needed this for a Christmas gift for my daughter, I would not use this company, the product may be great, but the service is awful.

LOVE IT,LOVE IT,LOVE IT.......2007-12-15

What else can i say but i love my camera it is by far the best present i have gotten. It takes amazing pictures and quickly gets you addicted to taking pictures ..i find myself taking pictures of everything just to see how the settings all work.Anyone you buy this for will love it. You will need at least a 2gb card and highly recommended to buy a camera bag oh and a tripod. Have Fun

ONE DOWNSIDE THAT I WOULD WARN YOU ABOUT.......2007-12-13

I ordered this exact camera from Amazon.com back in May of 2007. I love this camera, the quality of its picture taking and how very EASY it is to use. For a photography novice like me using a professional grade digital camera like this it is super easy to use. Canon makes great cameras.

HOWEVER....the CFS cards (which is basically the term they use for memory cards) plug into a slot inside the side of the camera. The cards have a series of holes that align into tiny copper prongs inside the camera. It does not take magnetized memory cards like a lot of digital cameras do. Twice I have run into the problem where since I use multiple memory cards and am VERY careful when removing and inserting them-at some point one of the delicate prongs that the card plugs into gets slightly shifted and therefore it would not plug in correctly and completely prevents you from taking or saving pictures unless you get it fixed (You will get a message on the screen saying "CFS error." At first I thought I had purchased a faulty memory card-but soon learned from a representative at Canon that unfortunately it was not the card but when inserting and removing these cards a lot of people have run into this problem--SO I just wanted to warn you all that it can become a MAJOR inconvenience to you if this happens as it can take some time to fix (although it's a simple problem to fix.) The first time it happened to me, I sent it in to Canon's repair center and they had it fixed just as new for FREE because it has a warranty, but it took six weeks. The second time it happened, I took it to a local authorized Canon technician who also fixed it for free since it is still under warranty.

My advice and what I am going to do is buy a memory card that holds the largest amount of gigabytes possible and just never remove the card so that the prongs will not get compromised. Once the memory card is full-there is no need to take it out to upload the digital images-that is done through an adapter/usb cord. So....I am just going to keep this new memory card inserted indefinitely-upload the photos onto my computer or a CD when it gets full (which takes forever because it takes loads of photos on the 2.0 GB cards even on the highest quality picture taking setting) TO PREVENT THIS PROBLEM FROM EVER HAPPENING AGAIN.

Other than that, I'm in love with this camera and the user guide makes everything so simple and I learn new techniques every time I use it, because it has so many amazing features.
