from www.amazon.com
the nice thing is that the camera has room to grow - buy a $500+ lens for it and it will really shine (or a much cheaper prime lens).
from www.amazon.com
i like this camera, a lot, but have to deduct a half point as it's quality is even cheaper than the original 300d (rebel xt), the plastics make it feel very toy-like.

if you buy the xsi camera body only, it's even cheaper than the xs with kit lens.

i chose this camera, first of all, because it was cheaper, and as money was a bit short, i was also attracted by the lower megapixel count (so i wouldn't require a better lens immediately).

Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ28

Best Price: $480.00

from www.amazon.com
all in all, despite it's light weight and "cheap" feel, this camera promises to be exactly what i was looking for.
from www.amazon.com
i guess we associate "heft" with quality, so the light weight of the camera makes them feel a little cheap, but it also makes them easier to carry.
from www.amazon.com
the plastic body keeps the camera surprisingly light (and cheap) but it is almost square, so it needs to be carried around your neck, or in a backpack, or in a very large beltpack.
from Ultimate, www.newegg.com
sure there are cheaper point and shoots that get the job done but trust me if you like your camera to respond the precise second you tell it to this is the one.
from www.amazon.com
while i wouldn't say it feels cheaply made it does not feel as solid as the last two cannons i have had.
