5 out of 5 stars Excellent - but you need to work to get the best from it   August 25, 2008
Benjamin (UK)
Consistently topping the recommendation lists for entry level Digital SLR cameras the 400D (Rebel XTi) is a fine piece of equipment. There are more than enough reviews here which to extol the cameras virtues and facilities; it is certainly an easy to use camera. However while is will work well enough on fully automatic mode, I have found that in order to get the very best out if it you have to do a little bit of work yourself. Different circumstances will warrant the camera operator selecting specific preferences, be it shutter speed or aperture, and perhaps allowing the camera automatic function to provide the rest, in order to produce the desired results.

But perhaps the most important area where the user needs to be watchful is with the focusing. Especially with close-up work I now no longer use the cameras automatic focusing but rely on the eye and the viewfinder to ensure accurate focusing. The difference is considerable; in fact I was ready to up-grade the lens until I carried out a few experiments and proved what the standard 18-55mm lens could do, and it proved to be quite up to the job. Knowing what the standard lens can doo means I can now look much more specifically for additional lenses.

It also is worth remembering that pressing the shutter release is only half the photographer's job. Back in the days of traditional film stock the rest (or even the most) was done in the dark-room. So some decent photo editing software is just as important; Adobe Photoshop is of course very good but my own preference is for Corel Photopaint.

Excellent value for money, I am very happy with my 400D (Rebel XTi).

5 out of 5 stars Upgrading From A Canon Rebel 35 MM SLR   July 8, 2007
S. Wells (Clarksburg Maryland)

In the camera world, we are probably considered dinosaurs as we have been very skeptical about the possibly of upgrading to a Digital Canon SLR from a Canon film SLR. But we finally did and purchased a XTI 10.1MP.

First our concerns about the upgrade:

Our prior experience with digital cameras has not been very positive. We purchased 2 years ago a 5 MP Nikon Coolpix and it was terrible. The software was terrible and the shutter speed was just plain awful. We never used it and almost always reverted back to our Canon 35MM SLR.

A friend of ours visited two weeks ago and she had a Nikon Digital SLR camera and took tons of pictures of our children like a pro. I was amazed at the quality of her pictures and was even more amazed when two weeks later, she sent me a published quality picture book of pictures that she took of our children. For people that are just getting into to digital photography, there are web sites that will publish a full color 20 page book (can put multiple pictures on one sheet) for $40 including shipping.

The day I got her book was the day, I decided that I was going to get a digital SLR camera too.

Since her Nikon was so great, we debated about whether we should give Nikon another try or stick with Canon. Since we personally have had good luck with Canon and had compatible lens we decided to go with the Canon.

We LOVE OUR CANON XTI. It is extremely easy to use and takes awesome quality pictures. The software works great and though I've only had the camera for less than a week, I've already published one book.

I highly recommend this camera.
