Summary: broken camera
Comment: I received the camera and it didn't work. I need to find out how to rectify
Customer Rating:
Summary: Great Camera for beginners
Comment: Unlike a lot of reports about grainy pictures and what not; this camera is really top notch! This is my first camera and I got some really great shots already, the grainy complaint was probably due to people using a higher ISO and not knowing much about camera settings. You'll definitely want a zoom lens though, the 28-80mm is nice for normal everyday things, but if you really want to experiment try looking for a 28-300 or even a 70-300mm lens.
Definitely recommended for amateurs.

Summary: Another great product from Canon
Comment: I had this camera for years before it was stolen and I replaced it with a digital Canon SLR. I am still amazed at the abuse I put my Rebel 2000 through. It has a nice light body, a great auto feature, and easy-enough to use manual functions. And because of the popularity (and rightly so) of digital these days, you can pick one up for a fantastic price, even brand spanking new.

Summary: Excellent Camera: Easily beats a Digital camera for its price
Comment: I have had this camera for about 4 yrs now - I take it on all my business travels.
Whenever I get a chance to go out on on the weekends, I take this camera and my Sony camcorder in my backpack, roam the streets of the new city and shoot pictures. The pictures that I shoot from this camera are just awesome - no matter whatever experiment I do with it.
Most useful features:
1. Aperture control with Depth of field preview
- Lets to focus the foreground and blur the background
2. Shutter speed control upto infinity
- Lets you control the amount of time for which the shutter can be kept open
3. It is pretty rugged, dont try dropping it :) I have used it to shoot pics from 'Maid of the mist' in Niagara falls and I almost thought that I was going to lose it. But it worked liked a charm
Negatives
- Bulky, but you will get used to it, it always gets attention
- Cost of developing film - What I do these days is to just get the photos on a CD, then develop only those photographs that are good.
Why is this camera better than a Digital Camera ?
- If you are spending $200 on a Digital Camera, I feel that the SLR is way far too ahead of any Digital camera in that price range
- If you are spending $1000 on a Digital Camera, a Digital SLRs are very mature today - worth buying.
Ideally, I would buy this SLR, take this whenever I really want to take good photographs, then I would also want to have a $100 Kodak Digital Camera for casual shots. This would mean an ideal combination.
If you are buying this SLR, you can also consider buying a Film/Photo scanners (available for less than $150 now) - which lets you scan the negatives/positives without even going for a cheap CD print. From the reviews what I read on amazon, these scanners must be amazing.
