Canon EOS Rebel XS 10.1-Megapixel Digital SLR Camera - Black (Body Only)

I'm a big fan of the Canon Rebel XS. It's the first DSLR I ever owned. I first bought one for my parents; after using it, I liked it so much I bought one for myself.I ended up getting the body only because I wanted to try other lenses. I got a Canon f1.8/50mm lens, and a Tamron 17-55mm/f2.8 lens. Both lenses are good enough to take any type of regular photograph.The build quality is great. It has a solid construction and it seems like it can handle lots of rough handling. Use common sense obviously; don't drop the thing! But I'm not worried about throwing it in a book bag or suitcase to take with me.The ISO is not as good as some of the higher end cameras. Night photos all look grainy; I have to edit the noise out using Adobe Lightroom.This camera has everything you need if you want to start learning photography.

I bought the camera body to replace my faulty EOS Rebel. WOW, what a great camera. I plugged in the battery, put in a chip, clicked on a lense and started taking great photos. I was leaving on vacation within a few days of delivery so I needed it to work right away. I was taking sunset wide-angle photos in the airport, out the plane window and of the Rockies when landing. I got photos of Mustangs along side of the road while riding down the highway at 60 miles an hour and photos of the night time Casino lights...all without a hitch. This is a great camera, and the price was right. I would buy this again and recommend it to friends .

I really wanted to get into photography but didn't have much of a budget to do so, so after a photography friend's recommendation, I purchased this camera with high hopes. It is fantastic. The first few weeks I had it, I took it everywhere with me. It gets clean and crisp shots and because it doesn't take video, the battery seems to last forever! Yeah, it's not a super high-end camera with all the bells and whistles, but this is a great starter camera for someone wanting to get into photography.

I bought this camera (body only) used, as a second camera to have a dedicated 85mm lens platform. I have used it extensively since I received it. Have not been disappointed. Though it was used, and there was evidence of wear on the exterior, it performs like new. Very satisfied. Takes great pictures.

I bought the Rebel XS as my first entry into the "DSLR" world at the advise of a friend....I couldn't be happier! This camera does everything (and more) that a rookie photog needs it to do, and the picture quality is far and above what I got with my Nikon 8mp point and shoot. I've probably taken several hundred shots already, and I still haven't had a need to charge the battery....in one word, this camera is "amazing". My next purchase--a 35 or 50 mm prime lens....Scott

The camera works well - my daughter got it for Christmas and I've been waiting to review, but she uses it nonstop and it's great. We found the drivers and manual online for free, no problem. Seller was accommodating and kind, everything arrived as described and in perfect shape.

It has a battery problem.. Have to re insert the battery every 2 minutes..

I have a Canon XTi, and I love it. Its pop-up flash broke years ago, and because I use an external flash now, it kind of takes the convenience out of a digital SLR with a popup. So I figured I'd get a new body and use my Canon lens and all would be right with the world. But this camera sometimes worked (as in simply turned on), but sometimes didn't. Sometimes it'd take photos but sometimes it wouldn't. I had to shoot my brother's wedding, and it's a darn good thing I had my old XTi, which saved the day. I sent the body back to Canon, and they fixed the on-off problem, but I still have a lot of trouble with poor lighting and bad focusing -- I don't have those problems with my old Canon, so I try not to think it's user error. Generally, I wish I hadn't bought this camera, but I didn't return it quickly enough and am stuck with a $400 mistake.

Got exactly what I expected and works just fine! Shipped fast and very well packed.My camera even came packed with a thank you note! Great service and recommended.Thanks David :)

Bit of an old camera, great to start for DSLR but lacking newer tech to have range of quality photo capability
