    Pros: Competitively priced, fully featured, uses Canon lenses.
    Cons: More expensive cameras exist with better features... but this is a great entry level SLR.

    Rated a Very Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Aug 9, 2008
    Pros: The camera with lens works out to be JUST a bit cheaper than without.
    Cons: The high price of even an entry level DSLR is intimidating to the noob.

    Summary: I am a man of many hidden talents. In addition to being a fine coinsurer of trashy B-Movies, monster flicks and Kung Fu movies, I bet you don't know that I also like taking pictures. No, not that kind you perv. I started out with taking a class back ... read more

    Cons: lacks some of the features ou might expect/want from an entry level DSLR
