 VERY GOOD August 17, 2008
This camera body is light so it is easy to use . I am satisfied with this camera.
Good Job August 16, 2008
This is my first digital SLR and its a doosie, the change from digital to SLR requires some study but the camera is so cool that the learning curve is actually fun. The quality and the modes live up to the hype. it seems to be a camera made for creating good pictures. My only complainant with this model is that the flash doesn't function at its best in some of the modes but that aside its a great camera
Perfect First Time D-SLR Camera July 28, 2008

I began using this camera as the editor-in-chief of my high school yearbook, and I couldn't have asked for a more reliable camera. It withstood a large amount of handling (including several drops) yet never had any technical malfunctions. It was also great for staff members who had never before used an SLR camera. Now, several years later, I have purchased one on my own and have not been disappointed. I decided to buy the body alone so I could purchase a mid-range lens that I would not have to change between every shot. I highly recommend this camera for amateur photographers looking for an affordability and high quality.
 Canon repair, Hope you don't need it!! July 18, 2008

When I received this camera I took a lot of test shots, they were quite impressive. I didn't use the camera for about a week and found it didn't work because of a dead battery, even though it had been fully charged.
I bought a spare battery thinking it may have been defective, same thing even though I made sure the battery was fully charged and the camera was off.
I then searched the online forums and found that this was a fairly common problem. When I called Canon support they first tried to blame it on something I had done. I told them that there were numerous people with the same problem and canon should be aware of it and asked if they had a download that could fix it.
Their reply was to remove the battery except when I was using the camera. I said: "That is was not acceptable as too often once in a lifetime shots would be missed while fumbling to install a battery."
It was agreed that I should RMA the camera and although it was still under warranty it cost $$ to insure and ship it.
When it was finally returned (I missed all the holiday pics) they claimed to have re-soldered a circuit board and replaced the tripod socket.
I don't believe they did anything and now the little latch that holds the battery in place is worn out and I use a rubber band to hold the battery in. It still takes good pictures though.
Canon has made another excellent camera July 11, 2008

The Rebel XT is an excellent base digital SLR. It is easy enough for a beginner photographer to use, but it allows more advanced users the freedom to express themselves with manual controls. It takes great photos and the battery lasts a long time. I've taken over 500 photos (without the flash) on a single charge. An excellent camera.
