CNET Editors' review - Canon EOS Digital Rebel XT with 18mm-to-55mm lens (silver)
 Hide
CNET Editor's rating: 8.0 out of 10
Reviewed by Michael Shapiro Review date: 5/4/05 Release date: 3/15/05 The good: The Canon Digital Rebel XT's image quality leads its class; competitive price; ultrafast start-up time; very responsive. The bad: The Canon Rebel XT's lightweight plastic body isn't ergonomically satisfying; no spot meter; limited continuous-shooting mode, unimpressive kit lens; 1.6X lens-conversion factor. The bottom line: The Canon EOS Digital Rebel XT is an exceptionally small and lightweight camera designed for amateur digital SLR photographers, but it delivers the responsiveness and image quality you'd expect from a semipro model.
