The underlying picture quality from the camera is superb. There is a wide dynamic range and noise is not an issue. Even out of focus
Underexposed backgrounds are noise free. Auto white balance is generally good
Except under incasdescent lights. The f...

The editors didn't like
Keep in mind that all of the above is praise for the camera body
Not the lenses. The cheap kit lenses are not good enough for the body. When fitted with a good quality lens you see what the camera can really do.
Pictures could use a little sharpening
Live View autofocus takes a little while The Final Word A solid improvement on the EOS 400D
Canons EOS 450D adds a bucket-load of new features
Abstract: The Canon EOS Digital Rebel XSi (also known as the Canon EOS EOS 450D) is Canons premium "entry level" DSLR. Though similar in concept to the Digital Rebel XTi, the Digital Rebel XSi has a higher pixel count sensor (12MP vs. 10MP), a larger LCD (...

The XSi delivers image quality that’s identical to Canon’s EOS 40D, but for a lot less. What are you giving up if you go for the XSi? The EOS 40D has a faster burst rate (five frames per second versus the Canon Rebel XSi’s three), more customization, ...
Great image quality; excellent low-light performance; improved body and control layout; Live View; big LCD screen; very good kit lens.
No top-mounted LCD screen; limited customization.
The EOS Rebel XSi is a great DSLR, no matter how you look at it. If you’re shopping for a DSLR that costs less than a grand, this camera must go on your short list. See more like this: cameras pro, creativepro Recommend? 0 YES 0 NO 0 Comments Emai...
Abstract: The Canon EOS 450D is an excellent all-rounder and much more than a plaything. A great DSLR for beginner and all other photographers that are searching for a light-weight DSLR at a very, very fair price level.The great 12.2 MP CMOS sensor delivers i...
The Canon EOS Rebel XSi is a superb entry level DSLR. The camera lacks in terms of design and aesthetic quality. One would have hoped that the XSi would have come with an improved grip and feel after the bad reviews of its predecessor, the XTi, on thi...
Abstract: Format choices are JPEG in various sizes and compression ratios and raw. Mercifully the JPEG options have been reduced to six, including L, M, and S with two “stairstep” compression ratios for each. Canon’s instruction book refers...
Abstract: There are one or two minor hiccups; live view arguably being the biggest. The LV system uses contrast-detection autofocus, which is from the accurate, but glacial school. Its perfect for tripod-based still life or macro shots of non-moving things, b...
Abstract: The camera cost around £440 (body only) or £500 with an 18-55mm image-stabilised lens. With cheaper snappers on the market, you might wonder if Canon can hold onto its lead when other similar-specd cameras are going for far less. But, it is still a su...
