Camera: Canon EOS 300D with 18-55 kit lens
Price Range: $1700 when I bought it (December 04)
Date of Review: November 2005
Like? It's a great camera for a beginner, but you easily grow out of it. Image quality is great, Canon sensor means there is little to no noise at low ISO's. Great battery life, even more so with the extended grip. Great colours, contrast and saturation, amazing range of lenses as well -for all budgets.
Dislike? Horrible buffer, slow AF. Need to flash it with 10d firmware to get features, slow start up time, slow memory card read/write, no scroll wheel on the rear. Above ISO 800 lots of noise.
