Canon Rebel XTI Silver w/EF-S 18-55 mm lens Tech Level: high
Ownership: 1 month to 1 year
This user purchased this item from Newegg.com
Pros: This Canon Rebel XTI w/EF-S 18-55mm lens is an outstanding product. The pictures are crisp, clean and extremely well color balanced. The 18-55mm lens is a beginers dream and fills the bill as a general purpose carry around. I am considering however the purchase of a good image stablized telephoto lens since the supplied 18-55mm one doesn't have that great a reac...

Great camera! I love this camera! I won't get into technical details, but it's sufficient to say this camera is FABULOUS for amateurs. I have 2 friends who use this camera for their business, and both have taken award winning photographs. I have been using this camera for a month, and I love it. I have taken some great pictures with the kit lens, however I will be upgrading my lens at the end of this month. For this price range, you can't go wrong. The large display is wonderful, and the controls are al...

Great Overall DSLR and a Great Value I purchased the XTi/400D because I used to have the Rebel XT/350D (lost during divorce) and I was much more familiar with Canon than I was with Nikon. I've made several lighting mistakes with manual setting, but these were my error and due mostly to the high f-stop lens attached.
The new sensor cleaning system is definitely a plus, but it obviously cannot prevent dust during numerous lens changes. Read up carefully and have the right tools before trying to clean the sensor yoursel...

Great for travelers and DSLR newcomers With emphasis on portability, Canon's Digital Rebel XTi is designed for first-time DSLR photographers and travel enthusiasts. Measuring 5.0" by 3.7" by 2.6" and weighing 1.1 lbs., it is about as large as the largest point & shoot cameras and one of the smallest DSLR camera bodies on the market. Its size is the source of both popularity and criticisms. If you have large hands or a heavier lens, it may feel too small. An optional battery grip can help, but some will want something more substantial...

Excellent Camera, but don't buy the kit lens I owned a Canon Rebel film SLR that I used well into 2002. Like many others, I got tired of paying for film, so I made the switch to digital, buying a point-and-shoot. It wasn't until I purchased this Rebel SLR in March of 2007 that I realized how much I missed my SLR!
I purchased the body only because I had a lot of Canon gear that was still compatible with the digital SLR. Buying the Canon was therefore, an easy choice for me. However, I did compare the Canon to the Nikon D4...

So Far So Good I was comparison-shopping between the Canon Rebel XTi, Nikon D80 and Sony Alpha DSLR-A100. Issues that matter most to me are ISO performance, image stabilization and dust removal capability. The best information that I was able to gather from various professional reviews before my purchase decision is as follows:
ISO performance: The XTi and D80 are pretty much on a par, but with the D80 having a slight edge in being able to push it up to 3200 (with decreased resolution at that sett...

If you're coming from Point and Shoot Cameras You'll find plenty of technical reviews on the web regarding features and specs for this camera.
The best thing I think I can provide is my short experience with this camera, so if you used to have a high end P&S camera and is looking to dive into the DSLR world, you are where I was a few weeks ago.
I owned a Sony F717 which I really loved, but honestly, all I did was set it to Auto and take good pictures. The problem was that I had a toddler at home that doesn't really...

Professional User; good value for money My parents wanted to give me a camera for a gift. I'm a professional who mostly shoots Fashion, Events, and Portrait throughout Chicago; my camera is my livelehoodand only source of income! Here are some of my thoughts:
FASHION: It works great. I can drop the ISO to 100 and fire off at a decent speed. I've used the XT to get work printed in a handfull of magazines and it looks like the XTi will continue this trend! It's easy to use and I LOVE the larger LCD screen! I need to show t...

Difficult Decision (30D vs. XTi) I had the Rebel XT and about 8 lenses and was thinking of getting an upgraded second camera body. So when it came out the 30D was a logical choice, but it was not really much of an upgrade from the 20D, which I resisted, so I was not really sure what to do. Then I had all but decided to just take the plunge and get the 30D when I heard the first rumblings about the XTi.
Then I started to learn the details about the XTi, more mega pixels, same auto focus, same screen, picture style...

Nice upgrade for the price. I decided to upgrade from the Rebel XT, for the simple reason that I'm in my 40s, have had Laser surgery on my eyes, and my close up vision isn't as good as it once was. Of course the first thing you notice is the 2.5" LCD. With the elimination of the mini-LCD on the XT, which displayed the camera settings, everything is now on the large LCD. This is a huge improvement for us middle aged folks. No more accidentally shooting at 1600 because this setting was buried. The current camera settings...
