The recent launch of the 450D - a hybrid version of the entry-level 400D and semi-pro 40D - has been closely followed by the 1000D. And there's nothing like a randomly chosen model name to go and confuse its line up of D-SLRs.

Canon EOS 1000D

Having helped create the 'affordable' DSLR, Canon has taken a while to respond to the latest, comparatively wallet-friendly offerings from the likes of Nikon and Sony. The 1000D is a pretty convincing response - it does just about everything it needs to do, and everything it does, it does well.
Pros:
- Great results even with default settings
- Good tonal response and dynamic range
- Picture styles provides good control over image output (and prove consistent across models
- Typical Canon CMOS noise-free images
- remain detailed even at high sensitivities
- Optional High ISO NR removes all chroma noise...
Cons:
- Continuous shooting ability in RAW very limited (small buffer and low speed
- Average automatic white balance performance
- still very poor under incandescent light
- Comparatively small viewfinder
- Limited exposure compensation range (+/- 2.0 EV
- Live view only useful for specific applications,...
