Canon Digital Rebel XSi 12.2 MP Digital SLR Camera Review
I use a Sony and Nikon digital cameras, as well as the Canon. The Canon takes wonderful photos, but using the Canon software is cumbersome. it will not work with my HP desktop, but will with my laptop. However, I do not like the Canon software ease of operation. If I knew the difficulty of using it, prior to purchase, it would have seriously influenced my non-purchase of this camera.

I bought this Canon because I’ve had a small one for years and love the ZoomBrowser software that comes with it. AND it took great photos. This is a great camera, and as a nearly total novice, it took me awhile to figure out how to use it, but now I’m satisfied with the quality. However, I installed the software with the discs provided,excitedly connected the camera to my computer to download and found that the software did not include a required .dll file. I have to say I was pretty proud of myself that I went online, found the file on a free download site and got it all going. BUT WHY DID I HAVE TO DO THIS??? Also, I wish the website had a way to inform a buyer off additional items I would need to operate the camera. I did not have the correct memory card and living out in the middle of nowhere, I spent another week ordering and waiting for the memory card to arrive. OH, well – live and learn!

I am an amatuer. I own the Rebel eos 10.1 xt. I am looking to upgrade to the 12.2 xsi. I have actually purchased it, but it remains unopened. I had mentioned to a pro what i was thinking on doing, and their question to me was why go from an xt to an xsi? I said among other things, for sharper photos, which they said probably wouldn’t happen with an xsi. Their suggestion to me was a new lens, with a price tag of $1200. That is not reasonable for me at this time. Am I wasting my money on the xsi? Can anyone help? Thank you for your input.

After reading countless reviews and fighting with the wife about what camera we should buy to replace a 3yr+ Old Canon 5Mp Powershot 610 we decided on the Rebel EOS XSi. This camera turned out to be terrible in numerous aspects. Auto-focus is next to useless. Nothing seemed to be in focus, even pics taken with our old Powershot 610 were better indoors and out. Flash is worse then a candle for typical lite rooms. Expect to have to buy an add on flash with any of these DLSR the image processors just don’t work with abundant light just like camcorders. Pictures were either under or overexposed and sometimes the flash wouldn’t even go off. The camera grip is awful and you constantly either cover the red eye reducer or the flash with your hand while trying to hold it. Even my wife who has small hands had a hard time holding it. The auto-focus issue seems to be a recurring issue with the this camera for months now after reading reviews. These entry DSLR don’t seem to be living up to the expectations one would expect for a $700+ camera plus lenses and accessories.
