Rebel XSi performance for less bucks, Fantastic, reliable AF system, Extremely clean highISO shots, More processing options than you could possibly need,
Build quality not great, Kit lens is of average quality, Auto white balance struggles at times, Live view less than useful,
Shooting with the Rebel XS is an enjoyable experience, and while comparisons between the XS and the generally similarly (and often identical) XSi are obvious and natural, Canon has done a nice job of paring down the more advanced camera's feature set f...
Very good photo quality, with minimal noise, Compact body by DSLR standards (though its not for everyone), Good kit lens, with image stabilization, Dust reduction system, Fast performance in most respects, Live view with contrast detect AF, magnificat...
Rebel XSi only costs a little more, Small, slippery right hand grip, Very slow contrast detect AF in live view mode; nearly useless in low light, Live view not available in all shooting modes, LCD and optical viewfinder both on the small side, Sluggish...
The Canon EOS Rebel XS (also known as the EOS-1000D) is a very competent entry-level digital SLR. It takes photos of excellent quality, its responsive, and it offers a host of useful features. Its biggest problem is that its big brother, the Rebel XS...

Given the tried and tested formula from which the 1000D stems, it’s no surprise that it appears on the whole as a refined model. The crux is, of course, image quality, and the 1000D delivers, with low noise levels, impressive detail capture and its...
The EOS 1000D is a solid addition to Canons extensive range of DSLR cameras, filling the gap at the sub-£500 / $700, entry-level price-point. Canon have cleverly ensured that its different enough to the more expensive 450D to tempt you to upgrade, y...

Excellent photo quality for its class; solid performance.
Maximum ISO of 1600; no spot meter; annoying, in-viewfinder, focus-point display.
