Canon EOS 350D - Expert Reviews

Review summary: This new Rebel XT has set a new standard for consumer digital single lens reflex cameras.

Pros: One of the best and most affordable D-SLRs available

Cons: Smallish LCD screen tends to wipe out in strong sunlight

Review summary: It's a superb buy, although we urge you not to get the kit version with the 18-55mm EF-S lens; it's just not a very good optic for a camera of this quality. The only problem? Nikon has already responded with a competitor, the D50, which we'll be looking a

Review summary: However, we were surprised to find the 350D offers PictBridge support because we think most enthusiasts or professionals (who are most likely to buy this model) will want to look at their images up-close and personal, in some sort of image editing package

Pros: Very well priced, fast power-up, excellent image capture and shoot speeds, long battery life

Cons: Onboard LCD lacks colour vibrance

Verdict: If you've got photography coursing through your veins, Canon's EOS 350D is well worth your time. At $1,085 - lens included - it also offers excellent value for money.

Review summary: Entry-level digital SLR from Canon

Pros: Improved casing and picture quality over 300D, lightweight

Cons: Conintuous shooting mode is better, but still not where it should be

Verdict: As an entry level DSLR this is great stuff, providing great pictures with little effort in a lightweight body
