 Very Happy October 31, 2008

After months of research and a class in photos 101 I chose the Canon. The Canon was the camera of choice in the class and with the reviews I had read the XSI was the camera of choice for me also.
Novice photographer's review- great amateur camera October 30, 2008
0 out of 2 found this review helpful
This a very good amateur camera. With the expert reviews I have read about the other amateur level cameras in the market, this seems to be the best one. The manual modes take a bit of understanding before you want to operate the camera in those modes. But automatic modes are also quite good. The sensor and the lens both are very good. IS works superbly. Very user friendly.
The only disadvantage is that is comes with no in-built memory.
Also in some of the modes when the sensor senses less light it prompts automatic pop-up of the flash. A few times I tried to put my hand on the flash to prevent the pop-up. In those case the display monitor shows some kind of error and blacks out. I had to turn it off and turn it back again.
But then there is an automatic mode which does not use the flash.
If you are planning to spend the money I would recommend to spend it the best way- buy the XSI. It is worth it.
Really good camera at a really good price October 30, 2008
This is an amazing deal for the package that you are getting. The price is one of the cheaper for what you are getting as a kit that Canon sells as separate pieces which if bought through them they would be about $100 more expensive. The photos are absolutely amazing and this is one heck of a jump up from my old point and shoot Canon Powershot A530. The strap for around your neck is really nice and easy to adjust depending on where you want it to sit. The software that comes with the camera is absolutely amazing and easy to download to your computer. The one thing that you need to get when you are first getting is a case for the camera. Other than that this is one amazing camera even in really low light. We had a haunted house we were putting on and we had a black light with people drawn on in highlighter and the pictures turned out amazingly for the fact that no other camera in our area could show the highlighter so vividly and without blur. The lowlight setting that you don't want a flash is what I set it to and the pictures are just about like if you were there.
Great camera! October 29, 2008

This is probably one of the best DSLRs out there for the lower end of it. I've had my eyes on this for quite some time now and recently purchased it about 2 wks ago. I'm lovin' it!
Canon XSi October 28, 2008
We have just gone SLR digital after years of SLR film. The photos look great when downloaded to the computer. There are a couple more features on the digital SLR than the Film SLR had and we have enjoyed the new toy so far.
