Canon EOS Digital Rebel XTi (a.k.a. 400D) 10.1 Megapixel, SLR, Digital Camera Kit (Black) with Canon 18-55mm EF-S Lens
The Canon EOS Digital Rebel XTi Digital Camera offers an unbeatable combination of performance, ease-of-use and value. It has a 10.1 Megapixel Canon CMOS sensor plus a host of features including a 2.5-inch LCD monitor, the exclusive EOS Integrated Cleaning System featuring a Self Cleaning Sensor with Dust Delete Data system, and Canon's Picture Style technology, all in a lightweight, ergonomic body.
- 10.1 Megapixel APS-C Size CMOS Sensor
- Canon's large-area CMOS (Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor) sensor captures images with exceptional clarity and tonal range, and offers the most pixels in its class. This APS-C size sensor (22.2 x 14.8mm) has the same 3:2 ratio as film cameras, enabling an effective angle of view that is 1.6x the normal EF Lens focal length. With an effective pixel resolution of 3,904 x 2,598, the EOS Digital Rebel XTi offers superb detail and clarity, even in large prints, and generates finished files that open at approximately 30MB in your image-editing software. On Canon's CMOS sensor, each pixel is captured with fine detail to create images of tremendous depth and resolution, ensuring enough information for even poster-sized prints.
- DIGIC II Image Processor
- The DIGIC II Image Processor was designed specifically for Canon digital SLR cameras and enhances every aspect of image capture. Information captured by the CMOS sensor is processed and assembled into images of exceptional quality. With the DIGIC II Image Processor on board, photographers can expect natural color reproduction, precise white balance in any number of lighting situations and unparalleled clarity. The DIGIC II Image Processor employs sophisticated signal processing algorithms and works at greater speeds, all while consuming less energy.
- Self Cleaning Sensor Unit
- To combat against stray dust that enters the camera and adheres to the image sensor during a lens change, the Digital Rebel XTi features a Canon-designed Self Cleaning Sensor Unit. The low pass filter cleans itself automatically with ultrasonic vibrations, removing dust from the sensor assembly, and anti-static technologies are applied to the low-pass filter covering the front of the sensor so as not to attract dust in the first place. Furthermore, the internal camera mechanisms are designed to minimize dust generation including a body cap that has been redesigned to prevent dust generation through wear on the cap itself
- Dust Delete Data Detection
- Dust that has been missed by the Integrated Self Cleaning Sensor Unit can also be erased with software included in Digital Photo Professional (DPP) Version 2.2. The Digital Rebel XTi's imaging sensor is able to single out the dust particles on its surface, then plots out their location coordinates within the image. This data is transmitted along with the image, whether JPEG or RAW, and can be either manually or automatically erased in Canon's DPP 2.2. This added software option ensures the cleanest possible image, perfect for printing or archiving.
- Large 2.5-inch LCD Monitor with Wide Viewing Angle
- The EOS Digital Rebel XTi has a brilliant 2.5-inch LCD monitor with approximately 230,000 pixels. All shooting and review information is accessed on the rear LCD monitor, and the wide viewing angle of 160° and brighter, easier-to-read menus give the new Rebel XTi LCD monitor an obvious advantage.
- Display-Off Sensor
- When composing images, the Digital Rebel XTi's external display turns off automatically thanks to the newly developed Display Off Sensor. This new sensor detects the photographer's face against the back panel of the camera, and turns the screen off to prevent the LCD monitor's brightness from disturbing the photographer's eye while looking through the viewfinder.
- Speedy Operation
- With a startup time of 0.2 seconds, the EOS Digital Rebel XTi is ready to go the instant it's brought to the eye. And the Digital Rebel XTi's shutter can record images as fast as 1/4000 seconds and as long as 30 sec., plus bulb at up to 3 fps for 27 consecutive shots. It synchronizes with Canon Speedlites at 1/200 seconds.
- 9-Point AF System
- The EOS Digital Rebel XTi has a high-precision 9-point AF system for speedy and accurate focusing in any situation. Conveniently located on the back of the camera for thumb-controlled action, Canon's cross key buttons enable instant choice of the 9 focus points, or allow the camera to choose them automatically. One-Shot is perfect for still photography. AI Servo AF tracks moving subjects, ensuring accurate focus. AI Focus AF switches between One-Shot and AI Servo when subjects are moving and stopping. The Digital Rebel XTi's focusing system functions in metering ranges of EV-0.5 to 18, and displays information on the Digital Rebel XTi's big LCD Display.
- Advanced Flash Photography
- The EOS Digital Rebel XTi features the acclaimed E-TTL II flash metering system. Whether using its flush-mounted integral flash or any of the flashes in the EX Speedlite line, E-TTL II provides reliable flash output through numerous exposures. Canon's Speedlite 430EX is perfectly suited to the EOS Digital Rebel XTi. It includes an AF-assist Beam, which works in conjunction with the EOS Digital Rebel XTi's focusing system, and automatically sends color temperature information to the camera when the flash fires, for more accurate white balance rendition with flash photography.
- "Picture Style" Settings
- With Picture Style technology and the EOS Digital Rebel XTi, photographers can recreate characteristics of their favorite films. Color, saturation, sharpness and contrast settings create noticeable variation in the saved image. In addition to six preset Picture Styles (Standard, Portrait, Landscape, Neutral, Faithful and Monochrome), users can create three additional settings for their particular photographic style.
- Compatible with EF & EF-S Lenses
- The EOS Digital Rebel XTi is compatible with all Canon lenses in the EF lineup, ranging from ultra-wide angle to super telephoto lenses, and including Canon's EF-S series lenses, manufactured specifically for Canon's APS-C sized digital sensor. Canon lenses employ advanced optical expertise and micron-precision engineering to deliver unprecedented performance in all facets of the photographic process. Aspherical optics and fluorite elements, for example, are featured in the universally acclaimed L Series lenses, and Canon's Image Stabilizer technology in select lenses minimizes the effect of camera shake.
- Print/Share Button
- Printing and uploading to a computer is incredibly simple with the Digital Rebel XTi's Print/Share button. By connecting the Digital Rebel XTi to a computer via the USB 2.0 port, it's easy to transfer some or all of the photographs in the cameras memory to folders on the computer.
- Direct Print Support with PictBridge Compatible Printers
- Printing your photographs could not be easier with the Digital Rebel XT. Simply connect your EOS Digital Rebel XT to any PictBridge-compatible printer, select your image and print settings, press the Direct Print button and your photograph will start printing. Exif Print 2.2 includes shot information with each image to optimize the printing of each of your photographs.
- Canon EOS Digital Solution Software
-
The EOS Digital Rebel XTi comes bundled with the latest Canon EOS Digital Solution Disk (Version 13.0), which features powerful software programs designed to extend the EOS experience to the computer, and each application is designed to perfect captured images, and streamline the digital workflow.
- Digital Photo Professional v. 2.2
This image processing program enables high-speed RAW image processing, high-speed previewing for real-time image adjustment and support for sRGB, Adobe RGB and Wide Gamut RGB color spaces. Because it's CMS (Color Management System) compatible, Digital Photo Professional allows for easy image layout and printing in Adobe RGB in conjunction with Easy-PhotoPrint and PictBridge printers. It also features the Digital Rebel XTi's Dust Delete Data Detection tool for cleaner images. - EOS Utility v. 1.1
This software manages the connection between the camera and computer, whenever they're connected via USB. It allows remote controlled shooting from the computer, handles downloading of images from the camera to the computer, and allows seamless linking to either Canon's ZoomBrowser/ImageBrowser or Digital Photo Professional software once images have been copied to the hard drive. Furthermore, it's used to upload settings back into a USB-connected camera. - ZoomBrowser EX v. 5.7 (Windows) and ImageBrowser v. 5.7 (Macintosh)
This easy, user-friendly software is for viewing and editing of JPEG and RAW image files. Both allow viewing of numerous types of images including finished TIFF and BMP files, and also have a variety of search options for finding images, allow re-naming of single images or batches of files, and offer a variety of options for printing without using a separate image-editing program. PhotoStitch v. 3.1 is also included for creating panoramic and composite images

Overall, a very versatile camera. My team uses this and the older EOS XT models for crime scene photography and have had very good results. The included lens is great for normal shots, but you may want to consider telephoto and macro lenses if you are going to get into any type of distance or detail shots. Works extremely well out of the box.
Two downsides we have noted are the weight and the slow response time when using the installed pop-up flash unit. The weight makes it a little difficult when you need to let the camera hang from the strap to do something else. The body is very light and the weight of the lens causes the camera to always point downward. Not a huge hit, but is a bit of a pain. If you use the available (and optional) battery pack, this issue is taken care of.
The slow response time is only when using the pop-up flash. When using no flash or an external variety, this is not an issue.
For the price, though, this is a very solid camera and the included kit items make it even more attractive, especially for folks like us who are on a very strict budget. Low cost and flexibility made this a no-brainer for our Crime Scene Unit.

This is my first SLR Digital camera and have had it for over a year. Lens purchased and used with this camera are "L" series 16-35 mm, "L" series 24-70 mm and 60mm Macro lens. Main subjects are flowers and macro for work.
NEGATIVE: Photos of flowers and macro photos leave a lot to be desired even with these very expensive lens. Thus I've gone back to my film camera for macro work to get razor sharp details of flowers, insects and macro subjects.
I actually love every thing about the camera except its inability to give the same razor sharp focus that I seek.
Pro: For landscape, family photos, general photography this is an very good introductory digital camera.
I'll continue to switch between SLR film and the Rebel xTi until Canon comes out with a digital SLR that meets the razor sharp details I seek and does not cost $2000 plus (I have too many $$ in Canon lens to change to another brand.)

Comments about Canon EOS Digital Rebel XTi Digital Camera Kit (Black) with 18-55mm Lens:
We have been using the XTi as our high school digital photo lab camera for a semester and a half with only two failures. These were both due to improper insertion of the CF card by our high school students. The XTi's are holding up remarkably well and we plan to purchase a few more while they are still available.
I have never liked the compact size of the XTi. I much prefer the size of my 50D. However, I have never heard a student complain about the size of the XTi. Students have easily mastered the controls and have no problems working in AV, TV and M mode. Their photographs in RAW format have been excellent. We are very pleased with this camera.

Comments about Canon EOS Digital Rebel XTi Digital Camera Kit (Black) with 18-55mm Lens:
I had a film Rebel and decided to make the jump to digital. After reading reviews on a number of competing cameras, I decided to again go with Canon and chose the Digital Rebel XTi. I mostly shoot pictures of the kids, but will occasionally get "artsy" with nature and landscape photography. The XTi offers great bang for the buck, and allows me to switch into "automatic" or override settings for more control at will. Ease of use, photo quality, [...]t. The only "con" I could suggest would be the built-in flash - I wish it gave a bit better performance, as it tends to cast dark shadows. I have my eye on the Speedlite to remedy this situation!

Comments about Canon EOS Digital Rebel XTi Digital Camera Kit (Black) with 18-55mm Lens:
This camera was reviewed as a good starter SLR, and it's proving to be so. It's intuitive and takes great pictures indoors and out. This may be my own concern, but I love the fact that the manual is written clearly and gives quite helpful advice on how to improve my skills with the camera. The only drawback I've noticed so far is that you can't use the LCD display to see what you're about to take a picture of; it's only used for interaction with the menu and for playback. The flipside is that when you look through the viewfinder, you're actually seeing a real-time view so that your pictures turn out closer to what you saw than if you were to see the view through the computer-generated LCD. I've so far used the camera outdoors at night at a large event and indoors day and night for portraits, and the pictures are turning out beautifully. In general, this is a wonderful camera for learning more about good photography, and I'm happy with the investment.

Comments about Canon EOS Digital Rebel XTi Digital Camera Kit (Black) with 18-55mm Lens:
I wanted to step up from a point & shoot because I was sick of the horrible low-light photos, and wanted something with a bigger zoom. The Canon Rebel XTi has met both these requirements of mine. The built-in flash does a reasonable job, and with an external flash, the pictures are immensely better. The higher ISO setting of 1600 has also helped prevent the need to use the flash. I did debate getting the 40D, which can go to ISO 3200, but the weight turned me off.
The ability to use a larger zoom goes without saying.
The quality of the photos are great, the weight and size are easily manageable. Overall, a great camera.

Comments about Canon EOS Digital Rebel XTi Digital Camera Kit (Black) with 18-55mm Lens:
This camera seems wonderful for a person who is making a jump from a point and shoot into DSLR. I have had it for 3 weeks, coming from a Coolpix S4. While I am new to DSLR, and LOVE the xti, I will be moving to a 40D shortly. I can see the limitations with this camera already, and since I intend on becoming a serious photgrapher, I want something more I can grow into. For what this camera is, though, it is a wonderful place to start in the exciting and fullfilling world of photography. Get the battery grip, it really makes a difference!

Comments about Canon EOS Digital Rebel XTi Digital Camera Kit (Black) with 18-55mm Lens:
We purchased the EOS Digital Rebel XTi Digital Camera recently, our second, and it is doing as great a job as our first. This makes our 4th Rebel in as many years. We use these for our annual staff at a community college in Mississippi. I can send a new staff member out on his or her first assignment and the student generally comes back with great photos.
I think its greatest feature is the ease of use. That's important for me, since at community colleges staff members must wear many hats. I just don't have the time between start of classes and the first football game to adequately train a student in all the elements of an SLR. I just have them put the camera on automatic (the green square) and point and shoot. I have not been disappointed with the Canon yet.
Our first Canon is still working as well as our last. They are built to last, and that's important to me because community colleges are generally underfunded, so I look for value, dependability, and ease of use in the equipment I purchase. I've also used this camera on college trips I've covered and it operates well under duress.

Comments about Canon EOS Digital Rebel XTi Digital Camera Kit (Black) with 18-55mm Lens:
I am very satisfied with my Rebel. Since I have a Canon SLR film camera, I am able to use my other lenses with the Rebel. The pictures are fantastic and the controls are easy and comfortable. It is light weight for an SLR. I am strictly an amateur but I was able to take some great professional looking wedding pics. I am very happy with my purchase!
