i'm new to photography i want to get one like this how much would it cost and what could you do with it? Canon eos Digital Rebel xti
like effects or what?
Its a great camera to buy has
- 10.1 Megapixel CMOS sensor
- Separate low pass filter with ultra-sonic vibration to remove dust
- Anti-static coatings on sensor surface, software based dust mapping / removal
- Nine area Auto Focus sensor (same as EOS 30D)
- Picture Styles, larger range of image parameter adjustment (same as EOS 30D)
- Faster image processing
- Removal of control panel LCD display, now uses main LCD monitor
- Proximity sensor below viewfinder eyepiece to disable main LCD during composition
- Camera settings made on main LCD (such as metering, white balance, ISO, AF area etc.)
- Setting adjustment saved with half-press of shutter release
- Continuous shooting buffer up to 27 JPEG and 10 RAW images
- Large 2.5" LCD monitor with 160° viewing angle
- Image magnification available in record review
- Histogram available as brightness (Luminance) or RGB
But
- No programmable Auto ISO(such as seen on the Nikon D80, almost 'ISO priority')
- No spot metering
- Settings such as ISO not repeated on viewfinder status bar while being adjusted
- Mirror lock-up buried in a custom menu
I think the Canon Rebel XTi is discontinued and you would be better served getting a more current DSLR camera. You do not need to get something is the higher price range and I would be open to other brands. Below is a short list of DSLR cameras that I am recommending and I am including an estimated price.
Sony Alpha A230 Digital SLR 10 MP with 18-55mm Lens - $429
Nikon D3000 10MP DSLR Digital Camera with 18-55mm VR Lens - $449
EOS Rebel XS 10MP DSLR Digital Camera Kit (Black) with 18-55mm IS Lens - $449
Pentax K-x 12MP DSLR with 18-55mm Zoom (has HD Video also) - $550
The first link is to a webpage that is a side by side listing the these cameras so that you can compare features and specs plus this webpage has links to reviews of all but one of these cameras. The reviews also have sample images from the cameras. Also I included some links to some dealers so that you can try and get the best price. Some of these dealers have some of these cameras with some nice extras, free shipping is very common, and sometimes they are offering a free memory card and/or camera bag. Sometimes you have to click in the "add to cart" button to see the actual price.
The Canon Rebel XS I list above is the newer, better version of the Rebel XTi you mentioned and the newer XS cost less. I think the other cameras are worth a look and the Pentax K-x is very intriguing, it has HD movie ability and the stronger high ISO ability.
Hope this helps.
Mark
