This camera works great. I had the original rebel and I upgraded to this. Both cameras are great but this newer generation is 1000% time better.

Rating: - Great Camera
I've worked with a cannon powershot point and shoot and love this camera even better. Yes it is more bulky cause it doesn't fit in my pocket but takes better pictures. It is not large by any means it just doesn't fit into your pocket like a point and shoot. You take this camera because you want to take pictures not for just incase you want to. A friend of mine says the pictures are too clear because of the great detail in them. We took it to Disney land and it did a wonderful job with action photos with the parade and kids running around to still shots of my kids posing. I highly recomend this camera to anyone and it is true that once you get it you get addicted to taking pictures. I bought a 4gb memory which held 886 pictures of the very best resolutions.

Rating: - great for those looking for a little more
Great camera for those looking to leap into photography in a more serious way or just take better pictures. This was my first SLR. It's simple enough and easy enough to use (and has good enough auto settings) that my wife, who only likes to point and shoot, can use it and be happy. It's light enough I can take it everywhere, even snowshoeing up the continental divide (didn't even slow the battery or performance a bit). Lots of room to grow and customize (I'm using the program setting pretty much exclusively now, very useful). Not very expensive, either. Very comfortable to use (for me, at least). No exposure issues, and exposure is pretty easy to control. Good camera for someone who doesn't quite know what they're doing or for someone who knows exactly what they want. The silver looks cool, in my opinion.

Rating: - Great Camera for the price
This is a great camera, especially for the price you pay for it. I've had mine for over a year and have taken over 5,000 pictures. I'm very satisfied with the results. The only thing I started noticing is the lens that comes with the kit doesn't work as good as it did when I first bought the camera. It is slower (AF) now and doesn't seem to focus very good in AF mode. So I'm getting ready to buy a new and better lens. Other than that it's a great product. I recommend it.

Rating: - Great value!
Extremely great camera for the price! With a larger lens you will need an external flash rig otherwise you will cash shadows... and it's a good idea with a small lens too because the cycle time is a little slow with the on board flash at night. But, during the day or with an external flash it's fantastic.
