Even though this camera is two years old now, it still is a wonderful, simple DSLR to use which gets the most important thing right and remains an excellent value for the money. The camera has a glossy plastic finish which doesn't exactly exude quality or make it feel like a high-end camera.

I am extremely pleased with how it works. Very easily and simple to get the hang of. Not too many buttons and settings. Takes really clear pictures and I couldn't be happier with my purchase.

I had been really excited to get a digital SLR (or DLSR) camera as I'd been looking into getting one for ages and believed that getting one of these would mean that I would have a better chance of taking fantastic photographs if I learnt to use it properly.

captures sharp; impressive images; low price; great for beginners; light for an SLR

quite difficult to find your way around at first; a lot heavier than a compact

Canon pictures are best quality pictures as we all know. After getting my job I wanted to purchase one best quality camera and I did this. It is a digital camera with a CMOS sensor. The camera is also provided dust deletion features which I needed.

With this camera you can take pictures that will outlast you and show the world what you saw on your hiking trip to the places you visited. I shoot landscapes and close-up photography and with a simple 18-55 mm lens I can do both with ease.

This camera will take images of just about anything with all the different assessories available

At this time I cannot think of any cons on this item

Decision-making made simple: This camera being just about the cheapest DSLR in the market, if you are still contemplating about buying it, it must be because you are undecided if to buy this camera or a more expensive one (like Canon T3i, about $150. more).

Purchased this as my first dslr and have been very pleased. I bought this model over other higher models mainly because I didnt require those better features. I accomplished what I wanted with this camera and it exceeded my expectations.

I am thrilled with my purchase. I had been looking at this Camera for almost a year. With all the accessories that came with my purchase I will be able to take pictures and memories forever

Very pleased with this DSLR from Canon, has enough functions for our needs and the lens allows a competent start into using the camera. I am enjoying using full manual mode and so far the images I have been taking have been noticeably better than the previous bridge camera we had been using, so very...

A lot of research went into this purchase. bought for a gift because of experiencing really good photo shots. Once learned you never go back. great name and quality.
