Product Description:
Ideal for a wide range of photographers from first-time digital SLR users to veteran photo enthusiasts, the new Canon EOS Rebel XS camera is designed to embody what you have come to expect from the EOS Rebel series -- a fast, non-intimidating, lightweight, easy-to-use camera that produces excellent images and starts emerging photographers off on the right foot. Immediately, photographers will take notice of the camera's Optical Image Stabilized kit lens for crisp focus, compensating for camera shake from unsteady hands or a moving vehicle. The new Rebel model also incorporates Canon's DIGIC III image processor, 10.1 megapixel CMOS sensor, Live View, Auto Lighting Optimizer, 7-point wide-area autofocus (AF) sensor and 3.0 frames per second continuous JPEG burst rate where the number of consecutive shots in a burst is only limited by the capacity of the flash memory card in the camera.

Rating : - Love this camera...issues with AF lense however..
I purchased this camera in Dec. of 2009 and I have been extremely pleased with it. I am a beginner with SLR cameras and this one has been very easy to learn to use. Beautiful picture quality and ease of use. Just today I am having issues with the AF on the lense that came with the camera. It is not working. I am reading on the internet that others are having this same problem. I have tried everything to remedy the problem to no avail. I will have to call Canon tomorrow and probably send it back to them to get the problem resolved. I am very upset about this and am hoping this isn't a persistant problem through the life of the camera..........
