Great little camera!

Strengths: Size, weight, Price

Weakness: Size, no 2nd control wheel, few custom functions, only 3fps, smaller battery than all others

Size is good if you want a small camera, but bad if your used to something more in your hand. I own a full size professional Canon EOS 1D Mark II and it's HUGE and doesn't have a built in flash. I wanted this one since it was so light and so small and even had a built in flash. I find that the light meter on most film and digital SLR's is about 70% acurate, and photoshop can account for 20% but...

Canon EOS Rebel XT 8 Megapixel Digital SLR Camera...

Strengths: Small size; accepts EF and EF-s lenses; Speed; Low ISO noise; 8mp CMOS

Weakness: None that I've found so far

This is my first dSLR camera. I upgraded from a Canon G2 that has served me well for almost 4 years. Coming from a point-and-shoot camera, I was a bit dumbfounded by the sharpness (or lack thereof) of this dSLR compared to my old G2. But I was able to find out that point-and-shoot digicams have their sharpness boosted up to the max, whereas dSLRs tend to have less (or no) in-camera sharpening....

Canon EOS Rebel XT 8 Megapixel Digital SLR Camera...

Strengths: EOS compatible, very fast shutter & startup

Weakness: Needs more menu/interface flexibility, no flash control in auto mode

I should say that I'm not a professional photographer, but I can appreciate great photos. I use my camera for people, scenery, and sports shots, so it's a wide variety of situations. Occasionally, I'll print them out (rarely larger than 5x7) and I know Photoshop well so I can adjust levels, crop, to get the shot I want if the photo isn't quite there. This camera has made all that much easier and...

Canon EOS Rebel XT 8 Megapixel Digital SLR Camera...

Strengths: Speed, responsiveness, ergonomics, low noise, availability of great lenses, solid build quality, price.

Weakness: Grip might be small for large hands, no ISO in viewfinder, LCD hard to read in bright sunlight.

This is an amazing camera. For the first time, I feel like I'm shooting with my favorite film SLR's again, except with all the advantages of the digital medium. It boots up instantaneously, snaps photos the moment you press the shutter, and yields wonderfully high-quality photos. Factor in the incredibly low price, and you have a real winner here.

Great entry-level dSLR

Strengths: Instant startup, low noise even at high ISO, tons of features and settings to play with, lots of lens choices, awesome picture quality, compact and light, good price, compatible with E-TTL II flashes

Weakness: Most "weaknesses" are from the compact size. If you like the compact size, then they're not exactly viewed as weaknesses.

The 350D is my first and only experience with SLR cameras. Before owning this camera, I only had experience with digital point and shoots. Often disappointed by the quality of point and shoot cameras and interested in improving my knowledge of photography and photos themselves, I finally made the jump to SLR with my 350D last month and I'm not looking back. This camera has made me more interested...

A handy mini SLR for travel

Strengths: Small size, light weight, easy to operate, great b&w photo effects

Weakness: Rattling noise, small hand grip, dirt attracting casing material

I've handled many canon cameras over the years, 3 film SLR (first generation Rebel, Elan, Elan IIe), 2 digital SLR (10D, now Rebel XT my latest addition), 3 digital point & shoot (A20, G5, and recently G6). After finding my full size SLR to clumsy to carry and point & shoot digital's quality to poor for road trips, I wanted a smaller SLR, hoping to get good picture quality in a smaller package. I...

Canon EOS Rebel XT 8 Megapixel Digital SLR Camera...

Strengths: Great features, High performance, Very attractive design

Weakness: Some buttons placed where they're hard to be found out or pressing when shooting

By overall, the Rebel XT is one of the best camera I ever had, by its features and picture quality looked like they were taken from the professional in affordable price. I love this camera..!!

Canon EOS Rebel XT 8 Megapixel Digital SLR Camera...

Strengths: Excellent improvement from the original Digital Rebel in terms of speed, functionality & size...

Weakness: Extremely small for an SLR, maybe uncomfortable to hold with large handed folks.

I've only had this camera for a couple days now, but man is it wonderful. I've owned the original Digital Rebel for about a year and loved almost every aspect of it. This version improves upon that with its blazing fast speed, higher CMOS 8mp sensor and reduced size. From what I can tell, it will be another wonderful addition to my digital world. Oh, yeah, the pictures come out spectacular as...

EOS 350D Rebel XT

Strengths: fast on/off, good picture, burst shot fast

Weakness: maybe with build-in image stabilizer, and LCD preview for taking shot will be even better.

This is my first Digital SLR camera. After using SONY DSC-S85 for 4 years, I am finally tired about it. This 350D is compact still, compare with most DSLR camera, and it’s fast, you will no longer miss a shot. I bought this camera body only, because I purchased a Tamron 28-300mm Di AF MARCO lens for it, and I am hoping I can use it with only one lens for now. I know the ideal lens for SLR is 2...

Rebel XT, a great

Strengths: Light weight, strong lens mount, controls very easy to use, excellent color.

Weakness: Small hand grip, buttons too easy to push with nose when looking in viewfinder.

I bought this camera to compare it to the Canon 10D I had bought used. I did like the larger, more rugged body of the 10D, but it was also much heavier. The primary complaints I saw in initial on-line reviews was that it might be too small, especially the hand grip, and that the controls were difficult to use for those used to the controls on the larger cameras (i.e. D60, 10D, 20D, etc.). I...

Camera Labs - Canon EOS 350D / Rebel XT review

The 350D / Rebel XT delivers an almost unbeatable package of quality, speed, size and price. The most obvious selling point is of course its 8 megapixel resolution, and while the difference between this and its 6 megapixel rivals can be subtle, it's certainly visible in real life results. Thankfully the smaller pixel pitch doesn't compromise noise levels, and Canon's DiG!C II processor ensures...

Canon Rebel XT

Think of a digital SLR camera with the features of a mid-priced D-SLR camera, think of an astonishing 8 Megapixels resolution and you will have undoubtedly the Canon Rebel XT in your mind. With an excellent image quality and the application of the DIGIC II processor Canon made a true all-round entry-level D-SLR camera… Read our review now at LetsGoDigital Camera Magazine.

DCRP Review: Canon Digital Rebel XT

All things considered I'd say that the Canon Digital Rebel XT is the entry-level digital SLR to beat at this point in time. It offers nearly all of the features of the more expensive EOS-20D but for hundreds less. My biggest complaints are the soft images, especially using the kit lens at smaller apertures, and some build quality gripes that I'll get into later. But for those ready to move up to...

Canon EOS Digital Rebel XT Digital Camera Review

The trimmed body of the XT packs in a DIGIC II image processor, which translates to faster processing speeds and advanced image control. The start-up time from the original Rebel is dramatically improved upon in the XT, from almost 2 seconds to 0.2 seconds, and it offers an increased burst mode which now captures consecutive images at 3 fps for 14 consecutive shots. Canon’s XT offers a feature...
