Canon EOS 1000D
Having just reviewed the excellent EOS 450D (29-08-08) I was more than chuffed to be offered the very new EOS 1000D . At this time of year everyone wants to tell you about what they have to offer for Christmas are you listening Santa?

The EOS Rebel XS ($699 list price) is the entry-level model in Canon's digital SLR lineup. The camera is essentially a stripped down version of the Rebel XSi: it has fewer pixels, a slower burst rate, and a smaller LCD than its big brother.
Pros:
- Very good photo quality
- with minimal noise
- Compact body by D-SLR standards (though it's not for everyone
- Good kit lens
- with image stabilization
- Dust reduction system
- Fast performance in most respects
- Live view with contrast detect AF
- magnification
- and a histogram (though see issues below,...
Cons:
- Rebel XSi only costs a little more, Small, slippery right hand grip, Very slow contrast detect AF in live view mode
- nearly useless in low light, Live view not available in all shooting modes, LCD and optical viewfinder both on the small side, Sluggish RAW format continuous shooting

Canon EOS 1000D + 18-55mm IS lens

- Image quality from the 10-megapixel chip is great, even in low light
Cons:
- Build quality leaves a little to be desired and the 3 frames per second burst mode won't win any high-speed shooting mode award
- Keen snappers might find the lack of a spot metering mode disappointing, too

Canon EOS 1000D review
Anyone choosing the Canon EOS 1000D as their first DSLR is best advised to opt for both camera and 18-55mm image stabilised zoom, as tested, for just £80 more than the body-only price. As typical with a DSLR you'll have to provide your own memory card.

Hands On: Canon EOS Rebel XS/1000D
After seeing Nikon spring back to life with its high-end powerhouses, Canon has decided to change its entry-level strategy starting with the new EOS Rebel XS. A replacement for the EOS Rebel XTi, the XS does away with the company's method of letting last year's model serve as its bargain SLR.
