Customer Review: High Range of Functions, Great Cost
As a complete newcomer to the DSLR world, I wasn't sure which camera to purchase to explore the world of photography. I thought about the XSi...the features sounded impressive, especially the Megapixels. But a friend of mine said that after about 5MP, the numbers don't really matter unless you're planning on printing poster-size photos (which few of us would actually do). The 8MP images of this camera are gorgeous and crystal clear--you'd never miss having a 12MP camera. All it would do is make the file sizes HUGE, and you'll have to get an external hard drive to save your photos. (Number of MPs is really ploy to get consumers to buy a more expensive model) The features on this unit are vast enough for an advanced photographer but has enough automatic features on it that it will ease you into the world of photography. I highly recommend this camera!
Customer Review: Best DSLR I have ever used
I would have rated it 6 out of 5, but they didnt give me any option to do that. Absolutely amazing DSLR. Its good for all: - Beginners who have never even used a DSLR before. - Professionals who love to shoot the mother nature. - Mums/Dads who want to capture the best moments of their parenthood. Infact I bought it when my son was born to make sure I capture his early years using the best available camera, and did it paid off or wat..??.. The only minus point that I can think of right now is that "like any other DSLR/SLR" its bulky..so you would have to get used to the fact that you cant carry it like any point2shoot camera in your pocket.. you would need proper bag for carrying this. - Great battery Life - Amazing Clarity - Great speed - Great Flash for night mode - Good lense - Great photography otions/modes. Great product!!
