Yet this probably won't be of concern to a first time D-SLR user who will want to just point and shoot. Impressive stuff, but switch to RAW and you're limited to shooting just 1.5 frames per second.

It can also shoot 3 Jpegs per second continuously until your card is full up. The 1000D shares the same Digic III processor as many of Canon's professional EOS cameras. The 1000D may not have a Highlight Tone Priority mode, but it does well to produce fantastic images that have a great dynamic range, keeping detail in both highlight and shadow areas. Close-up details, tones and textures appear sharp and crisp. Its 10.1-megapixel sensor may seem small compared to other D-SLRs, but it produces impressive results in a variety of lighting conditions. These gripes aside, the 1000D packs in a pretty impressive line-up of features. Those with large hands may find the 1000D difficult to hold, and its smooth plastic body, without any real grip, lets its appearance and handling down somewhat Weighing in at only 450g, it's one of the lightest D-SLRs out there (although not as light as the Olympus E-420, which weighs a mere 375g).Įven with the Image Stabilised kit lens (a worthy feature on such a camera) it's incredibly light and compact.


If you're a digital compact user and looking for more creative licence, hang on a few months and the 1000D is sure to please.Ī notable factor is the incredibly lightweight body. Yet the price of the 1000D is pretty much guaranteed to drop in the coming months, as Canon will want to push this as the definitive entry-level D-SLR.
