To start with, the camera body is essentially the same.

Also note that the Image quality of both cameras is considered the best in the entry level DSLR class by many reviewers.

• DIGIC 4 image processor

• Price with 18-55mm IS Kit lens is $899

So what does all this mean?

Here's the way I see it.

I have owned the Digital Rebel, and I can tell you it is an awesome piece of equipment. Reviews on each new release have been consistently excellent.

Your decision comes down to two features:

#1 - Video capablility - If you are used to taking video with your digital camera, it could be a major factor. If video is not a major consideration, then I would recommend saving the $180-200 and use that money for some of the other goodies you will want to add to your new DSLR, such as a zoom lens.

#2 - Price - most folks do NOT purchase a DSLR for it's video capabilities. And the older model Rebel - very highly recommended by most reviews - has been satisfying owners for over a year. Due to similar image quality and control settings, I would recommend going for the XSi.

Here's a thought. Why not use the money you save on the less expensive camera and buy a Flip camera for your occaisonal video needs? You would still end up with money in your wallet!

You will not go wrong on either of these cameras, no matter which one you choose. LOOK HERE I have created a more visual presentation of the differences between the two cameras.

The ability to change a lens for a specific need is very empowering for digital photographers. When making your purchase you might even consider not buying the Kit lens and invest a little (or a lot - depending on your choice) for a more versatile "walk about" lens such as the Canon 28-135mm.

An Awesome Entry Level DSLR - Canon Rebel T1i Review

Are you ready to move up where the "big boys" play. You know, the digital SLR camera crowd.

Now is a perfect time to either buy a Canon Rebel T1i as your first DSLR or to upgrade from one of the older Rebel models. In fact, wouldn't a new camera be a nice present for yourself considering the holidays are upon us?

This Canon Rebel T1i review will focus on some of the absolutely best features of this amazing camera.

Here is a list of specifications that will be of interest to most camera buyers:

• 15.1 megapixel CMOS image sensor - capable of printing HUGE pictures
• 3" LCD panel with 920,000 pixel resolution. Works very well even in high light conditions.
• ISO of 100-1600 with a boost to 12800 is needed for really low light (the image quality really suffers at that high of an ISO)
• Lenses are interchangeable - uses all EF and EF-S lenses
• Digic 4 processor (this is how the camera processes the pictures. It is a much better processor than most point and shoot cameras, giving you a mega-advantage in the image quality)
• Kit lens is 18-55mm with IS
• High Speed Shooting at 3.4fps for as many as 170 JPEG images
• Plenty of shooting modes, including Program, Shutter Priority, Aperture Priority, and Manual which are the mainstays of digital SLR photography.
• Creative Auto Mode - a brand new feature for the T1i, which point and shoot owners will recognize as a feature in your better compact cameras. The camera makes creative decisions for the photographer.
• Video capture at 1920 x 1080 (1080p) at 20fps or 1280 x 720 (720p) at 30fps. Because of only 20fps, you might want to use the 720p option when shooting video to get better quality. That size will show up very nicely on your HDTV screen.

That is quite a lineup of features. The important thing is that the camera has everything you would want in an entry level DSLR, and then some.

Manufacturers have been competing at the price point of entry level DSLR, and they have gotten the prices down to way under $1000. When you consider that some of the hardware and software on this camera is the same as on Canon's higher end professional cameras, this is an awesome camera in its category.

There are plenty of professional photographers that buy Canon Rebel T1i cameras as backups because they are always reliable and they produce amazing images.

When is the release day of the Canon Rebel T2i? I'm expecting the price of the t1i to go down when this happens. When does the T2i come out? Or when does the T1I go on sale?
