2 out of 5 stars Canon repair, Hope you don't need it!!   July 18, 2008
Sheldon La Follette (Elk,WA)
When I received this camera I took a lot of test shots, they were quite impressive. I didn't use the camera for about a week and found it didn't work because of a dead battery, even though it had been fully charged.

I bought a spare battery thinking it may have been defective, same thing even though I made sure the battery was fully charged and the camera was off.

I then searched the online forums and found that this was a fairly common problem. When I called Canon support they first tried to blame it on something I had done. I told them that there were numerous people with the same problem and canon should be aware of it and asked if they had a download that could fix it.

Their reply was to remove the battery except when I was using the camera. I said: "That is was not acceptable as too often once in a lifetime shots would be missed while fumbling to install a battery."
It was agreed that I should RMA the camera and although it was still under warranty it cost $$ to insure and ship it.

When it was finally returned (I missed all the holiday pics) they claimed to have re-soldered a circuit board and replaced the tripod socket.

I don't believe they did anything and now the little latch that holds the battery in place is worn out and I use a rubber band to hold the battery in. It still takes good pictures though.



5 out of 5 stars Canon has made another excellent camera   July 11, 2008

The Rebel XT is an excellent base digital SLR. It is easy enough for a beginner photographer to use, but it allows more advanced users the freedom to express themselves with manual controls. It takes great photos and the battery lasts a long time. I've taken over 500 photos (without the flash) on a single charge. An excellent camera.


4 out of 5 stars camara buena pero el lente no tanto   July 3, 2008

la camara es increible, pero el lente al ser un Zoom no es muy luminoso, por lo que hay que compensar con el iso de la camara, incluso 1600, pero ahi la imagen pierde nitidez aparece el grano.


4 out of 5 stars excellent value   June 26, 2008
Martin M. Seinfeld (new york city)
excellent value for price. Clear sharp images, good color. the camera is easy to use with a short learning curve. It is small and light. there is a wide variety of lenses available both from canon and third party vendors. the only drawback is the view finder which should be extended slightly further from the body of the camera.


5 out of 5 stars Works like a charm!   June 21, 2008

This is my first digital SLR camera and I was a bit hesitant at first to spend almost $500 on a camera. However, it was well worth the amount. I've had a lot of fun with this little camera and I've already taken some pretty amazing shots. It's real user friendly. A real small body so it's easy to travel with and the battery power is outstanding. I will purchase a different lens soon. The one that comes with the body is alright if I had to rate that I'd probably give it three and a half stars. I've had a real hard time with trying to focus on people with that lens when trying to take portraits. Other than than that it creates sharp images. I suggest this to anyone who is new to the digital SLR cameras.

enjoy!
