Canon EOS Digital Rebel review: Canon EOS Digital Rebel

It's tempting to think of Canon's EOS Digital Rebel (known outside the United States as the 300D) as a light version of the EOS 10D . But luckily for consumers, the Rebel is more of a middleweight champion, delivering slightly scaled-back performance...

Aggressive price; excellent, low-noise images; speedy performance; long battery life.

Can't save custom settings; limited metering options; continuous-shooting mode snaps a maximum of four shots.

A low price boosts the Canon EOS Digital Rebel's appeal for amateur film-SLR photographers going digital and high-end snapshooters who want to experiment more.

Canon EOS 300D / Digital Rebel

On 20th August 2003 Canon surprised many people (not least us) when it announced its $899 / €1,099 EOS 300D (Digital Rebel). This digital SLR based on the EOS 10D's superb six megapixel CMOS sensor and image processor in an inexpensive consumer body...

Excellent resolution, matches EOS 10D, Good color, more contrasty tonal response thanks to default parameter set, Noise free 'silky smooth' images at ISO 100, 200 and 400, Very low noise levels even at ISO 1600, virtually unnoticeable below this,...

Opening the CF compartment door shuts camera down, loses any buffered images, Still a very average automatic white balance performance, we expected more, 'Dumbed down' feature set (forced AI Focus, forced Evaluative metering, etc.), Plastic finish will...

The EOS 300D is a formidable camera, not from a feature set point of view.

Canon EOS 300D review

Canon is doing well in the world of digital photography and maybe that is an understatement. The assortment of digital cameras built up by Canon over the past few years, is recognisable and has its own face. Names like Powershot and EOS are standing...

The Canon is undoubtedly a break through on the field of the digital reflex camera. Only this time not concerning the innovations but the price, and even the price/quality relation. Canon has caused a true wave of ecstasy amongst the many Canon reflex...

Canon EOS 300D Digital Rebel Review Round-Up

The EOS 300D's plastic body is just one of the elements used to reduce the cost of the camera, others include the use of a pentamirror in the viewfinder instead of a pentaprism, a reduction of features … and a shifting of manufacturing from Japan to...

Canon EOS Digital Rebel

The Digital Rebel is an excellent camera at a remarkably low price given the cost of other DSLRs. No doubt prices will drop further and cameras will improve over the next few years, but right now the Digital Rebel sets a price/performance standard...
