 Great camera, zero effort at packing October 13, 2008

Marvelous feel to this body with the BG-E5 grip. It's now my only body, given its light weight, the quality of its images, and ease of use -- and I've had 30D's and a 1DsMKII.
HOWEVER, I can't recommend ordering this type of equipment from Amazon if you care about decent, or at least adequate, packing. There was one strip of 3 deflated plastic air bags in the shipping box, providing no isolation of the camera box whatever. Being that the shipping box was twice the dimension of the camera box, there had to be some serious rattling going on during transit. I feel fortunate the camera is functioning. In the future, I would order an electric toothbrush from Amazon, but I'm through with ordering camera bodies and lenses from them.
Great solution for semi-professionals October 13, 2008
A great DSLR camera with numerous customising options!
The 18-55 mm lens provided though is very very basic. I would strongly recommend buying an extra lens with higher capabilities.
Canon Digital Rebel XSi October 12, 2008
Very well pleased with the camera. I will be even more pleased after a little more experience and time. Very good price and Amazon has been a pleasure to deal with!
 Almost usable October 11, 2008

I had high hopes for this product. Something I could finally afford and use to improve my limited skill set. But the first 3 pictures I took were completely out of focus using AF. When compared to my Kodak shot of the same scene, they were a dismal failure. This camera has a problem so back it goes.
Excellent Camera October 10, 2008

This camera is fantastic! I had the Canon Digital Rebel XT before and really enjoyed the functionality and ease of use. However, this new Rebel takes the line to whole new levels! It is very easy to access the controls and shoot manually, the auto-focus is better than before, the picture can be blown up to (roughly) poster size without losing quality, the new battery lasts longer, and the new memory card format allows for faster usage. Oh yeah, and if you take photos outside alot like I do, the auto dust cleaning sensor is a godsend. No dots on the photos!
