Review summary: On 20th August 2003 Canon dropped a bomb into the digital SLR market with the six megapixel sub-$1,000 EOS 300D (Digital Rebel). Eighteen months later and just in time for the largest trade show of the year (PMA 2005) Canon has revealed the successor...
Verdict: So it's clear, the EOS 350D is a great successor to the EOS 300D, it puts right many user complaints, it delivers a smaller and lighter camera which feels better put together and delivers an increase in resolution.
Review summary: As Canon's popular digital SLR beefs up to eight megapixels, we look at the bigger picture…
Verdict: Coming hot on the heels of the fairly recent 300D, the 350D provides remarkable value for money in terms of body kit, an eight mega pixel sensor and a vastly improved start-up time. New buyers, however, are advised to shop around for an alternative lens.
Review summary: The main competitor of course is the D70s from Nikon and the differences between the two cameras are small. It is a neck-and-neck race. Anyhow, if you purchase the Canon EOS 350D you will be the proud owner of a top product. A camera to enjoy to the...

Review summary: The EOS 350D is an exceptionally small and lightweight camera designed for amateur dSLR owners. Despite this, it has the responsiveness and image quality you'd expect from a semi-professional model
Verdict: Even with the shortcomings of the kit lens, image quality was impressive. Colours were saturated and generally natural, although the automatic white balance tended towards the warm and yellowish in some situations. We recommend shooting raw files for...

Review summary: The camera's feature set-combined with the vast assortment of available Canon mount lenses-make the Rebel XT the best choice so far in the sub-$1,000 digital-SLR market.
Verdict: Just as the original Rebel was a scaled-down version of Canon's midrange camera at the time, the EOS 10D, the Rebel XT is a slightly lesser version of Canon's current midrange offering, the EOS 20D. Because the Rebel XT uses the same 8-megapixel image...

Review summary: Looking for a small, light digital SLR? Right now, this is the one to get.
Verdict: 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

Verdict: Initially unveiled at PMA 2005, roughly a year and a half after its predecessor, the Canon Digital Rebel XT appears to be a real winner. Offering strong image quality, rapid shooting and processing speeds, and the ability to apply a range of Canon and...

Review summary: It's a fact, not all professional photographers use professional-level cameras. Often there's sound commercial reasoning behind the choice: why risk an expensive digital SLR when one costing much less will do the job?
Verdict: Nevertheless, in spite of some minor idiosyncrasy, the EOS 350D is capable of delivering professional results with bags of detail and minimum noise up to ISO400. Prices for the body or with the EFS 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6II lens are already discounted and...
