Very fast 12MP D-SLR, Fine picture quality, Supplied IS lens
Don’t bother with Live View, Flimsy door covering connections, *
We hate to sound like a skipping Internet audio stream, but it’s very easy to recommend the Canon Rebel XSi. It’s a fast-focusing, speedy D-SLR that delivers excellent photos both indoors and outside. At 12.2-megapixels, the camera also h...
Sample Images Since the Canon XSi is targeted at the entry-level DSLR market, all sample images were shot with the XSi kit lens, the EF-S (crop-sensor only) 18-55mm f3.5-5.6 IS. This will likely be the way most buyers purchase the XSi and it seemed fai...
Abstract: (Note: The Canon EOS Digital Rebel XSi and EOS 450D are the same model) The last Canon Rebel we reviewed was the XTi back in 2006. Now we have a brand new Rebel XSi and its a beauty. The list of improvements over earlier models is impressive and inclu...
Lownoise sensor raises the bar for entrylevel DSLRs, Loads of JPEG processing control in camera, AF system still among the best, Lots of customizability,
Camera doesn't feel as nice as it is, Revised kit lens still not so hot, Live view may or may not be useful, Default processing not as vibrant as some competitors, Canon Rebel XSi
Expectations for the XSi were admittedly high, and hence the opportunities for Canon to come up short in the court of public opinion were numerous. In spite of this high bar, the XSi will unquestionably win converts to Canon with its (still) excellent...

Abstract: The Canon EOS Digital Rebel XSi is now starting to ship and Ive had the chance to shoot with one for a few hours, so I thought readers might be interested in my first impression of the camera - and the new EF-S 18-55/3.5-5.6IS USM and EF-S 55-250/4...
Abstract: The Digital Rebel XSi’s self cleaning system works by shaking dust particles off of a filter near the image sensor. The dust is then trapped by an adhesive, preventing it from causing further problems. Cleaning is engaged each time the camera is powered up, shut down, or cleaned manually via the \"clean now\" function...
Low maximum ISO setting NillSlightModeratePALPABLEExtreme
The update to the EOS Rebel XTi, the XSi sports a huge 3-inch live view LCD screen, the fastest burst mode on a Rebel to date (3.5 fps for up to 53 JPEGs and 6 RAWs). We were disappointed by the relatively low maximum ISO setting of ISO 1600, but the...
Abstract: Whenever a new camera is released the inevitable question is "Should I get A, B or C", or sometimes "Should I upgrade from A to B"? Well, this time is no different. Im sure there will be lots of people asking "Should I get a Rebel XTi, XSi or 40D" ...
