User Ratings and Reviews

4 Stars Awesome camera kit, nice job Canon!!
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

great image quality

accurate color

nice functions

large preview screen

lightweight for a digital SLR

good value EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS Lens, images are clear and crisp

CONS

ISO speed only goes to 1600, not very ideal for night photography

Zoom with the EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS Lens isn’t that great

5 Stars Great camera for the money
I’ve had the camera for about a month and have taken several hundred photos in different environments (outdoor, indoor and action). It does a great job in all areas and the battery life is super… charged it the day I got it and have yet to have to recharge it. The only issue with the camera is either the memory card that I bought or the camera itself… it seems to get hung up sometimes when reviewing photos and sometimes when taking a picture it gets a glitch so you have to shut the camera off and take the memory card out and put it back in, then everything is fine. Great camera for the money!!! If you buy an extra lens for it spend the $400 for the better Canon lens as the $275 (55-275) telephoto I bought doesn’t give as clear of picture as the lens that came with the camera.

5 Stars Great camera, but never received from Amazon
Well, I originally ordered the camera through Amazon on the 11th of Sept., it was scheduled for delivery on the 22nd. October 2nd comes and still without the unit, carrier (USPS) showed item was in “arrival scan” status at a location the whole time. Contacted Amazon to cancel order and refund, it’s now the 12th of Oct. and still no camera or refund on account. I ended up ordering the camera from n*w*gg for about $50 cheaper, just so happens they had a promo going on, 10% off all DSLR’s.

My rating above is not for the service, but for the camera.

On to the product, I love the camera so far. I am just getting into photos, so my photo skills are not quite up to par. Using this camera makes taking photos a snap and they come out great. Quick response to capture those precious moments of your first child.

5 Stars Canon XSi
This camera is a great camera for DSLR beginners. It is very easy to use and takes very good pictures.

5 Stars Great Buy – Trust Amazon !
Purchase for my 16 yr old – living out of state – needed the camera faster than the expected ship date, I sent the email saying I needed it, it came the next day. The camera is better than I expected. the service great. I paid hundreds more for my D-SLR and it was a lesser version – This is a good buy

Nothing is better than Canon’s new EOS Rebel XS, with its powerful features including a 10.1-megapixel CMOS sensor, Canon’s DIGIC III processor, fast shooting and more, it’s a digital powerhouse. Canon’s CMOS (complementary metal oxide semiconductor) sensor captures images with exceptional clarity and tonal range, and offers the most pixels in its class. The DIGIC III Image Processor is developed to maximize performance between the capture and recording stages of digital photography, it’s DIGIC III Image Processor works hand in hand with Canon’s CMOS sensor to achieve even higher levels of performance. The EOS Rebel XS’s Auto Lighting Optimizer is yet another image-quality tool that comes to the rescue in tricky lighting conditions. It can actually lighten dark areas of a scene while ensuring that bright areas maintain tonal detail. With it’s Picture Style technology, photographers can change the look of their digital photographs. It also features a high-speed, wide area 7-point AF system. It can focus using One-Shot AF mode, AI Focus AF, AI Servo AF and Manual. The center, cross-type focus point operates flawlessly in lower-light and lower-contrast settings. In Live View Function, it can focus manually, with 5x or 10x magnification for focusing clarity. It has a bright 2.5-inch TFT LCD monitor with 230,000 pixels and a viewing angle of 170 degrees. It operates with such effortless speed that operation is nothing short of intuitive. With instant startup times, speedy autofocus and minimal shutter lag, it is one of the fastest cameras available today.

The significant operational advantage the Canon Rebel XS can offer over competitors is the “My Menu” feature, which unlike other features; it inherits form higher-end models. This feature can let you build a go-to-list of the commonly used and accessed menu settings. Overall, the Canon Rebel XS outperforms all but the D60 for shooting speed. It goes from poser to photo in less that 0.2 second. Its JPEG-shooting lag matches the rest having 0.8 second duration in conditions where there is low light, but quite good for any class of DSLR camera. But the most obvious advantage of the XS over competitions is its photo quality which is quite good especially at high ISO sensitivities.
