Digital camera reviews of Canon Digital Rebel XSi 12MP Digital SLR Camera (Black Body Only)
Digital camera Review: Good camera, okay lens
Summary: 3 Stars
Great menu system, easy to use controls with a wonderful 3" display. The supplied lens is the downfall for me, the image quality is okay but the "feel" is distressing. I know the lens is a trade off, offering a lot for the price but putting an "L" lens on the XSi is a real eye opener, brings the camera to life. Were I to do it over I would easily still buy the Rebel XSi body but would purchase a good prime lens (fast Canon 35 or 50mm) and give up the benefits of the zoom. Soon after purchasing the Rebel XSi kit I added a Canon 135 f2 L and was rewarded with some stunning photos with great "pop". While putting a high quality (and high priced) lens changes the XSi from a good camera to a great camera the reviewed lens/body combination is a great move up for most of us and priced well. Battery life is amazingly good and the RAW image files are supported by many software packages. The body with a simpler, high quality lens would receive a 5 star rating from this consumer.
