This was wonderful starter DSLR for me. It introduced me to the digital photography world and takes great all around photos. It allows a new user to learn and then advance to using the manual settings. Price is what drove me to purchase this camera origanally in a kit.

Canon eos 1000d easy to use nice camera

Hello there dear This camera is gorgeous and gives a cool approach to click photographs easily. The quality is fine when contrasted with portable cameras. This functions admirably and clicks sharp pictures. It is anything but difficult to take it anyplace which implies its very convenient.

Great for beginners

This is my first DSLR and I am in love! As a beginner who acme from crappy point and shoots and cell phone cameras this thing takes great pictures right out of the box. Even on full auto the XS will take better photos than P&S cameras.

Astrophotography

My first SLR digital camera, I have also a Fuji finpix bridge camera which is fine for every day shooting but needed a camera for astro photography and has very low noise at 1600 I so so have had some great astro shots. I would recommend this camera to any one interested in astro photography.

[REVIEW-CANON EOS 1000D camera]

This 10 megapixel camera is the first SLR from Canon to break (just) the $1000 barrier. The construction uses a lot of obvious plastic, including for the lens mount. It is small and light and is well suited to small hands. Ergonomics are just so-so.
Pros:
  • The picture quality is excellent, especially when a better quality Canon lens is fitted
  • Dynamic range is wide and the Auto Lighting Optimiser is useful in tricky situations, such as backlighting
  • Auto focus and exposure are very fast and accurate.
Cons:
  • The "live view" is ridiculous
  • The user guide recommends manual focussing in live view and yet Canon claim that they include the function because compact camera owners trading up to a DSLR demand it.

Canon Digital Rebel XS Digital Camera Review

The EOS Rebel XS is Canon's newest entry-level SLR. Based on the Rebel XSi, it's marginally cheaper and less powerful, with a resolution of 10 megapixels versus 12 for the XSi, a smaller 2.5" LCD screen. It arrives into an already crowded marketplace, full of affordable, starter SLRs.

Canon EOS 1000D Review

The Canon EOS 1000D is Canon's response to competitors' models - think Sony A200 or Nikon D60 and you're on the right track. However, a response is one thing, but it's certainly not the conclusive answer that Canon should provide.
Pros:
  • Low-noise images
  • Introduces Live View
Cons:
  • Price point doesn't make sense
  • Poor kit lens
  • Low spec build and cramped layout
  • White balance is frequently off
