i have been waiting for the annual canon rebate, and got this kit with the 55-200 lens. I have got a lot of good comments on my pictures now from friends, which i hardly ever heard for ones taken with my canon S1-IS.
Good camera but a lot to learn regarding all of the options. Can be expensive to maintain. Best for serious hobby or professional work.
This camera is great whether you are just getting started with DSLR or are more advanced. There are a ton of features that can be utilized if you want to expand your skill set.
I had begun thinking about purchasing a DSLR camera and reading reviews and comparing. When the time for a decision came, everything pointed to the Canon Rebel XSi. The quality of photos is wonderful. All of the possible combinations of features are ea
I don't know anything about ISOs, image stabilization, or auto focus. I couldn't possibly tell you -- yet -- what half the buttons on my new camera do. But the picture quality is amazing, and I picked up the basics in about fifteen minutes of
The camera has been easy to use and offers lots of features that allow my son to produce some very interesting and artistic results.
This camera takes amazing pictures. There are a lot of other cameras that have more features and cost a lot more that supposedly take better pictures but I am not a pro. This camera has an amazing full auto feature that adjusts everything for you. Just
I am very pleased with my upgrade. it is a nice camera to own even if you are an amateur and all you need is taking photo of your your family I give it 2 thumbs up.
Purchased this camera for a european vacation along with an 8 gig card for a great price. Pictures turned out excellent. Camera has good features and easy to set up and use. Details on the close up feature came out nice. I will purchase a more powerful
im a beginner photographer and i just started my business this year, ive owned this camera for a year its features are awesome and there are never enough lens for this camera! i take awesome pictures and i can print them up to 16x24 and there SUPER clear,
This camera is easy to use right out of the box. The picture quality is amazing, and all the lenses from my 20 year old Canon film SLR work with my new digital. Transferring pictures to the computer is a snap. I would recommend this Canon camera to everyo
I've had this camera for about three weeks, and so far I've been very pleased. It's simple enough that my wife can use it without instruction, and powerful enough that I can tweak it to get creative. I was pleased to see that my old L ser
I decided to upgrade from a point and shoot camera to a digital SLR camera 2 weeks ago. I had done hours upon hours of research of what dSLR to get. Some suggested the Nikon route, but I opted for Canon. The XSi was everything I could have asked for. As a
I just received my Cannon SLR and I couldn't be happier with my purchase. I have read up on several reviews regarding this camera and I have to agree that the quality of the pictures are excellent. Canon is known for it's user friendliness and
I absolutely LOVE this camera... It's GREAT for beginners and anyone who gets frustrated by not being able to figure out a camera. After a couple days you get pretty used to it and can take amazingly beautiful pictures that you'll adore. I hav
I bought this camera in December after months and months of research and I absolutely LOVE it! I wanted something that would give me a little bit more opportunity to be more creative. And while my digital point-and-shoot may have had some features I hadn&
This was given to me as a Christmas present this year and I absolutely love it. It's been a great camera to learn on, takes fantastic pictures, is very versatile, and quite easy to use. Great for the amateur photographer who aspires to be professiona
I have two other Canon Cameras, the last one being the XTi. The larger screen alone makes it worth the upgrade to this XSi. However, the extra MP's are icing on the cake. This camera is very lightweight, well planned-buttons and functions, easy to g
This camera takes cystal clear images. Very easy to use and download?upload photos. Highly reccomended- Canon is superior to all others.:)
I have owned a Canon EOS 3 film SLR camera for about 12 years and have loved it. I decided to go to the digital SLR since I am going to have daughter in a couple of months and the cost of film and developing is crazy. The lenses on my EOS 3 were interchan
There are a lot of things I dislike about digital SLRs. I've been a big fan of 35mm black and white and color slide film for years. With film, I get very graceful degradation (grain). With digital, low light noise is not as pleasing as pushed 400-s
This is my first Digital SLR. I have to say I am very pleased with it so far! I was a little nervous of some of the reviews of the Auto focus. But I don't use the auto focus that much. So no complaints here. Very Good Camera!
i'm new on digital photography, a friend was living in the States, I live in Guatemala City, as soon as she brought it I started taking a shot to everything, i can't stop loving it, even my friends love it, and for the prize...no where else amaz
I've been using the Canon Rebel XSi for about half a year. Question to all XSi and XS users, "Should I trade-in my XSi/XS for an T1i?" Answers all vary and depends what you need. 1. Overall I think the Canon Rebel XSi is a very very good ca
The quality of this camera is amazing. Light weight and the way it is designed makes things easy on handling and using it.
I DELIBERATED TOO LONG. I THINK I MISSED SOME GOOD SHOOTING. I BOUGHT THE EOS XSI KIT FROM AMAZON, ALONG WITH THE CANON EF-S55-250MM 1:4-5.6 IS ZOOM LENS, AND I HAVE BEEN AS HAPPY AS THE PROVERBIAL "PIG IN MUD" EVER SINCE. I SEEM NOT TO BE ABLE
awesome camera!! just awesome, its great in its point and shoot simplicity, and powerful in more complex creative modes. would recommend to anybody taking up digital photography beginners of course, there are more better models for pro's (expensive t
This is to most amazing camera. The pictures are so awesome, I wish I had one of these camera when my children were small. Everyone should have a camera like this, amature and pro.
Everything considered there's isn't a better DSLR out there for the $$. Sure there are cheaper and more expensive models. But for most beginners and even semi professionals the XSi has most of what you need. It's light, feature packed, has
I am a semi-pro photographer who usually shoots with much more expensive bodies. Every now and then, however, I need to bring a smaller camera with me for whatever reason, and this is the one. Also, like a lot of pros and semi-pros I need to have an APS-C
This is my first digital SLR, and I have immensely enjoyed thus far. I bought this one because the price was palatable, and it had been recommended to me by several friends. I have not been disappointed. I am learning a lot about photography in genera
Agree with most of the positive comments here. I finally made the jump from point and shoot to DSLR. Picture quality is way better in indoor or low light shots. I now realize how flash pictures are generally bad (and try to avoid if possible). I was unsur
This camera is probably on my top 5 best investments in my life. It takes the most beautiful pictures with very little effort and knowledge. But I suggest exploring all the different options that this camera offers. You'll be surprised of what a good
I've been an "advanced" enthusiast with regard to photography for quite some time and was hesitant to take the plunge (and part with the dollars) into the DSLR field only to find out the cost far outweighed the return. Well after having th
The complexity of this camera made me hesitate to take the plunge, but I'm glad I did! I received it the day before our family vacation in Disneyland. With three young children running all over the place, it doesn't matter how trained you are,
Canon Digital Rebel XSi 12MP Digital SLR Camera (Black Body Only) Delivery was prompt but had to sign for it in person (would not redirect delivery) so lost 5 hour of pay, so it cost me over $150.00 more do to lost pay so if you order this arrange for del
I've owned a Rebel XT for a few years, so bought this camera to upgrade. It's easy to use and if it's anything like the Rebel XT, it will be very reliable. The shutter is responsive. I get live view mode as well as viewfinder shooting. The
This is my first DSLR, I don't know how to use most of the function it come with, but I'm learning now. This camera is easy to learn, the manual come with it is very detail and easy to understand (for a first time user). The Kit lens is great fo
This camera provides a strong range of capabilities, but it may cost more money than entry-level buyers want to spend. Still one of the best.
I'm just a beginner but I love this camera. Its so easy to use...the directions that come with it are easy to read and understand. It takes great pictures...I highly recommend the book Understanding Exposure to go with it for beginners. Definitely
This camera is great for all levels of shooting. Works well with many different lenses. I definately recommend this camera for the price. Thanks Amazon.com.
I'm very happy with my recent purchase of the Canon Digital Rebel XSi. I had a 35mm Canon Rebel EOS before switching to digital and I'm very glad that they're so similar so I didn't have to learn a lot of new settings. One of my favor
Love this camera so far! I am still learning how to use it, but love it. Especially now that I got a zoom lense for it.
This camera has greatly exceeded my expectations. The image quality is much greater than I would have imagined from such an inexpensive camera. I have often seen this billed as a "beginners dslr," but I am actually very impressed with the feat
My husband really likes his new camera - it is very easy to use and takes AMAZING pictures. Our digital camera had finally died and so I had this one shipped to his hotel he would be staying at on his business trip. He was really surprised when he got to
This Camera is simply a standout. At 12.1 mp there isn't a non-pro camera that can keep up. The only thing better than this is full-frame pro cameras and that is a different desired way of shooting. Functionally, there is nothing flawed at all wit
I'm old school, 35m Canon. Gambled on the world of SLR digital and I truly enjoy this camera, great features, light-weight, easy to use. My older premium lenses attached without issue. I shot over 275 photos at a benefit dinner this past weekend, uti
I made the jump from a point and shoot to an SLR. I wanted something where I could take pictures at car races and the like that is just beyond the point and shoot range. I'm not a pro and don't have the budget or the justification for that kin
Great camera, but the kit lens is not very good. If you are new to SLR photography you will not be unhappy with it, it really is a huge leap from point and shoot, and you can use this lens to learn your camera. However if you have owned an SLR before and
I can't say enough good things about Adorama! I ordered a Nikon D60 kit http://www.adorama.com/INKD60K3.html Very friendly service, short wait times for customer service, super fast shipping. Item arrived in a well packed box. I thought I had an i
