Budget dSLR - Great for beginners This is my first SLR of any type and it was an excellent purchase. I bought my Rebel XT approx. six months ago and I'm still learning new things everyday. I've since purchased the 430EX flash, Sigma 18-200, Tomron 28-300 lens, Kinko 2X extender (cheap lens), Battery Grip, and a second battery. I love the manual settings for low-light work and taking several servo speed shots. I'm not familiar yet with taking RAW photo shots instead of JPEG, but I'm still researching this.
I thou...

Very Pleased I've had the Rebel XT about a month and I'm very pleased with it. I've probably shot at least 1,500 shots getting familiar with it.
I have been very happy with both the A70 and A95 Canon cameras I also own, but the picture quality is really several cuts above the "A" series. The fact that they all use the Compact Flash format cards sure doesn't hurt either.
I've read how some think the camera is a bit small in the hands, but I find it very comfortable.

Canon Digital Rebel XT masterpiece I've had this camera for some time now and it continues to impress! I go to car shows, sporting events, races, etc. and this camera can handle it all awesome. It may be a little pricey for some, but you get what you pay for. I have a 6GB card with it and went to the Detroit Auto Show and didn't even use hardly any of the memory on the card(and I took well over 450 pics). The pics are very clear with minimal or no distortion at all. I've been reviewing pics of the auto show all over the internet ...

Still the best deal on the market - but don't buy the kit lens I've had mine for about 9 months now, and have worked with it enough to use most of the features without the manual. It's not overly complex, but there's a lot to know, and much of it isn't intuitive. Overall, I'd give their user-interface design a rating of 3.
With the right settings and a good lens, it takes terrific pictures, and the various program modes are well thought out and executed. I have to work pretty hard to take better pictures in manual mode than the camera will s...
