This is my first Digital SLR and have been able to use all the XSi features with ease. I have taken many macro photographs with great results. from Bhphotovideo.com I'm very satisfied with this camera. I'm a fine art painter and digital concept artist so I take tons of reference images. It offers all I need for now, i'll upgrade to a higher end Canon or Nikon when I get the dough. PROS from Amazon.com I am an "advanced" amateur photographer, have used Canon equipment for fifty years. I got into digital cameras with the Canon Rebel XT about 5 years ago and recently purchased the XSi as an "upgrade". from Amazon.com Still figuring out all the specs and how to utilize all the sweet manual settings but other than that it takes amazing pictures! Great overall camera. Canon all the way! Also, if you are going to buy it, get it without the kit lens and get something better, you will not regret it. from Amazon.com I did a lot of research on dslr's and everyone professional photographer that I spoke to said the the Canon Rebel was the best dslr for a beginner. I did buy the book Canon Rebel DSLR for Dummies and was able to whip thru it very quickly. from Amazon.com It nails the shot to receive clear "forced blurred" shots, crystal clear panned shots, as well as capturing the back-lit rainbow glow of water droplets from a pouring out garden watering can. I needed one for my digital photography class, and I'm glad I spent the extra money to get this one. If you're looking for a solid digital camera, look no further than the Canon Digital SLR Rebel XSi...you will need a telephoto lens stretching out to space to find any disappoints with it. And it ships very quickly, so you can catch that shutter bug in no time at all! from Amazon.com Takes greate pictures but just recently I am seeing a black spot on the upper right corner of the eyepiece. The dot on the eyepiece doesn't show on the pictures taken. I don't know if I should have this replaced or should I bring this to a canon service center which I don't know if its available here in my area for maintenance. The pictures taken are perfect but this dot on the eyepiece is just very annoying. from Amazon.com This is an excellent digital SLR oveall, and (almost) everything positive that others have written about it is correct in my opinion. The controls are intuitive, and after a little practice you can use them without having to take your eye off the viewfinder - the ISO control, the exposure compensation, the viewfinder is familiar to any Canon SLR user, etc... The grip is comfortable, and provides good 'grip'. from Amazon.com I researched a long time to choose XSi, because the performance/cost is acceptable. I own XSi for 3 months, I agree it's a fine camera for many scene, but it failed at some senarios. from Amazon.com Not the more expensive! I use mostly Sigma! Compared to a Canon there is no difference is picture quality. The only difference is in the price. from Amazon.com
