 Great entry-level DSLR Jul 04, 2008
I've had this camera for a little over a month, and I've only had time to take a hundred pictures or so, but I really love this camera. But buyers should be aware that this is an entry-level DSLR. There are only a few things nagging me, but I should share them with you. First, only in certain modes can the flash be forced "off" -- otherwise, it pops up if the object of focus is dark and the background is a bit brighter... Sometimes, it was just annoying, particularly on a bright sunny day when taking pictures in the shade when I think I would have preferred it to stay closed, and it kept popping up. Secondly, the kit lens. Well, it's a kit lens, and while it's okay for a beginning lens, it's not very good, especially if you want to take a wider variety of pictures (low-light, shallower depth of field), and its picture at lower f-stops is soft, to be kind (I found the pictures at higher F-stops to be decent, however, not great).
Those are the main things I've noticed and been bothered by, but otherwise, the camera is fantastic, and an incredible jump up from most point-and-shoot cameras.

Simply amazing Jun 25, 2008
I've had this camera for almost two years now, and I've taken well over 10,000 pictures with it. I've never been happier with this digiecam than with any camera I used before. I went from a 35mm SLR to a hi-grade P&S digital, and then to the XTi; and haven't looked back since.
I'll be upgrading to the XSi in the near future, basically the same camera with a little bit higher resolution sensor, live view and a few other bells and whistles.

 A truly GREAT camera! Jun 22, 2008
I've had this camera about 6 mos and have NO complaints. It takes much better pictures than my current abilities. Coupling this camera with Photoshop Elements helps me produce some much "better that average" pictures for printing!

So much fun! Jun 20, 2008
This is a great little DSLR. It's super-light (by DSLR standards) and takes some amazingly detailed photographs. Don't forget a good flash (580EX-II) and good portrait lens (Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 II.)

Biggest bank for the buck. Jun 20, 2008
This camera works great. I had the original rebel and I upgraded to this. Both cameras are great but this newer generation is 1000% time better.
