News, Review, and Pictures of the Canon EOS350D Digital Rebel XT Digital SLR CameraCanon's highly popular Rebel lines brings the performance of the digital SLR world below the $1000 price barrier. With an 8MP CMOS sensor and a small, light body, the Rebel XT vies for the position of the best low-cost digital SLR (DSLR) camera on the market. SLR means single lens reflex, wherein the actual image coming through the lens is projected onto the eyepiece (on in the case of digital, to the LCD screen), letting the photographer SEE exactly what will appear on the final picture - focus, aperture depth, etc. These are what professional photographers use, with quick zoom capabilities, FAST auto-focus (plus complete manual control), no startup or lag time, and the abiltity to take bursts of photos all in a 1 second. There are larger pictures below.
Like all SLR cameras, the Rebel XT lets you use interchangeable lenses (Canon or other EF compatible). The performance of the XT is nothing short of phenomenal, shooting 3 frames per second in burst mode, with resolution that is essentially as good as the more expensive Canon EOS 20D (1750 lines of resolution). Color reproduction nearly matches the real world, and there is no noise even past 400 ISO settings. It has a 7 point auto focus system that is quick and responsive, reducing shutter lag times. The Canon uses compact flash memory cards for storage, and the micro-drives fit in the same form factor space, which means up to 8GB of storage. High speed USB 2.0 connection hooks you up to your PC is you don't have a memory card reader. Full RAW support of course. The only complaint we had was with the LCD - at 1.8" it is on the small side, and dim in bright outdoor light.
