Digital Rebel Canon XSi 12.2 MP Digital SLR Camera

Executive summary about Digital Rebel Canon by Troy Richards

canon rebel xsi

With the average megapixel rating of today’s cameras exceeding 8 and 10, nearly all cameras in this range take quality pictures. The considerations when shopping for your next camera, then, should be about usability, versatility, and price. If you want professional quality pictures and a camera that is easy to use, but don’t have a professional’s budget, then the Digital Rebel Canon XSi is perfect for you.

Nikon offers several models that perform as well as the Canon XSi, but are very expensive and their interactive menus can become quite tedious for the average user. Like the Nikon D70, however, they don’t offer sensor cleaning to highlight tone and do not ship with a bundled VR lens. This is basically like buying a 2006 camera in 2009; not a great deal.

The Canon XSi feels right in small hands. Its buttons allow you to make changes quickly and easily, so that the next great picture moment doesn’t pass you by. The Canon XSi’s Auto ISO is not as efficient as Nikon’s but aside from that, the camera is excellent. It offers an RGB histogram for when you need to clip individual colors, very good skin tones and colors, and little noise as Canon’s CMOS sensor is cleaner than Nikon’s. The Digital Rebel Canon XSi is a great camera with features you might find in the much more expensive Nikon 40D or Pro 1DS.
