A well-balanced camera, the EOS 1000D feels good in the hand and is so easy to use you may have to fight off younger family members for shooting rights.As for quality, if youve never used a camera with a larger image sensor youll be surprised at the ...
The picture quality is excellent, especially when a better quality Canon lens is fitted. Dynamic range is wide and the Auto Lighting Optimiser is useful in tricky situations, such as backlighting. Auto focus and exposure are very fast and accurate. Res...
The “live view” is ridiculous. The user guide recommends manual focussing in live view and yet Canon claim that they include the function because compact camera owners trading up to a DSLR demand it. But when they find that by holding the came...
Stupid gimmicks apart, this is a good way to buy into a system than will grow with the user’s expertise. And when the time comes to move up to a better body the Canon lenses will still be in the bag to use on the new camera. And as decent lenses gen...

Good feature set; relatively low noise at all ISO settings; Live View; low price.
No dedicated Live View button; slow shooting speed when recording in RAW format.
Overall, there’s very little to complain about with the EOS 1000D, as it’s affordable, has all the most important modes and snaps photos at a fairly good speed when shooting in JPEG mode. The camera has all you need to grow as a photographer a...

De sobra esta decir que nos encantó, la Rebel XS continúa la tradición de Canon de ofrecer cámaras DSLR de bajo precio que ofrecen algunas de las características de sus hermanas mayores. Cierto que ahora la competencia es mucho mayor, y hay buenos exp...
