Digital camera reviews of Canon Digital Rebel XSi 12.2 MP Digital SLR Camera (Black Body Only)

Digital camera Review: Happy Camper
Summary: 5 Stars

I'm really happy with this purchase. I went with the body only and bought a 50mm to be the primary lens. I've been using this camera for about a week now without even unwrapping the instruction manual (although I will this weekend, as I know there is much to learn). Pictures have turned out great - the 50mm lens operates very well in low-light situations. Now I just need to save up for a macro lens!

Digital camera Review: Hi-Res Pictures!
Summary: 4 Stars

I have had Canon products for years and had a 35mm Canon SLR, this was the main reason to stick with Canon as I was able to use my old lenses with this digital SLR camera. I have had several point-and-shoot camera's which only lasted a year or two... cheap to buy and cheaply made... you get what you pay for.
This Camera has all the options you could need in a digital SLR camera at a great price, easy to use and awesome picture quality. I am experimenting with the manual settings but the auto settings take great quality pictures as well. Many professional photographers agree Canon is the leader in lenses.

Pros - Hi Res pictures, easy to use and a great price for a digital SLR.
Cons - In "Live view" auto focas is not available. (This is the only reason I didn't give it a 5 star!)

Digital camera Review: I want'a use it, too...
Summary: 5 Stars

A Pro, I've a Canon Ds and a Canon D Mark II n, for jobs. And, a Rebel XT and XTi, as back up cameras and for assistants to use, and I got an XSI for the same reason as the other Rebel's! Though, I got to tell you, I really like this sweet little light 12MP camera. Add the battery pack grip..., and I want'a use it too and am going to, especially when I want to lighten my camera bag for a long hike by foot to a location to shot and for times when I'll be carrying a camera in hand all day long... It has all the basic manual and auto functions that I might need and then some, and other pluses...

Digital camera Review: I'd like it to be bigger and heavier.
Summary: 5 Stars

I'd like it to be bigger and heavier. I miss the feel of my old Nikon F2.

Digital camera Review: It's a good camera for the price.
Summary: 4 Stars

Mine came with two lenses, an 18-55mm and a 55-250mm IS lens. The picture quality is pretty good, although I'm not that impressed with its AF capability. Its pictures aren't as sharp as my 4 year old Canon PowerShot 50 (point and shoot).

Its Live View feature is also puzzling, I can not figure out how to use it. It never seem to focus!!!

But it has all the right features, and they are easily accessible. Its interfaces are very intuitive to me.

I considered purchasing a Nikon D90, but its very pricy, and seems a bit larger as well. Its ISO range is much better (200-3200), but not worth the extra $500 to me.
