Canon is the photography canon.

I have had this DSLR (Digital Single Reflex) for a little under a week now and while I have wanted to blast off a review straight away I thought that to be fair to the product, those considering buying a DSLR and my readers of this review that I should trial out the camera a little longer before...

just what I wanted

I use this camera for taking product shots for my business as well as for personal photos and it works great for both. The battery life is excellent compared to past cameras I have owned. The included lens does well with close ups and distance shots.

Pros:
  • Easy To Use
  • Fast / Accurate Auto-Focus
  • Fast Shutter Speed
  • Good Image Quality
  • Good Image Stabilization
  • Great entry-level camera
  • High ISO Performance
  • Quiet
Cons:
  • No Video

Happy with it

Bought a Sigma 18-50mm and 55-200mm lens kit and I really like that too. I've been told that unless you're doing architectural photography the difference between them and Canon lenses are minimal. Got the camera with a great package deal from Newegg (Case, HD, SD Card, etc)
Pros:
  • Great camera, my first DSLR and I must say I love the picture quality
  • I am new to photography but am quickly learning
  • Take time to learn the features and how lenses, filters and other accessories can make the shot even better
Cons:
  • None for me
  • I like the t1i features, but this fits the bill right now

Canon EOS 1000D

All of which leads us to two burning questions: is it worth the extra bucks for the 450D over the 1000D? And how does the 1000D stack up overall compared with its sub-AU$1,000 competitors?
Pros:
  • Excellent photo quality for its class
  • Solid performance
Cons:
  • Maximum ISO of 1600
  • No spot meter
  • Annoying, in-viewfinder, focus-point display
