This is my first dSLR camera. While most stores display the XTi and eventually the XSi, the XT is adequate for my needs. I believe I do not need the potentially ineffective sensor cleaning feature, live view, eye proximity detector, extra focal points, or the extra resolution. I ordered the XT with the EF-S 18-55mm 3.5-5.6 IS lens for only around $180. After buying the 4 GB Sandisk CF card I spent less than $700 total. A few years ago, I would only be a able to buy a high-end point and shoot camera. In the near future, I plan to buy the EF 50mm 1.8 II prime lens as well.
Pros: -Compact; great for traveling, even fits in my backpack with my 18-55mm IS attached.
-Very good ISO performance from 100-800. 1600 is OK
-Handy back-lit monochrome LCD display
-Built-in flash for starting out in dSLR photography and hot-shoe for future external flash
-Very fast response
-Shutter, aperture, and focus point display in viewfinder.
-Custom functions allow some tweaking.
Cons:
-Changing white balance, ISO, AF mode, and light metering requires use of the color LCD screen that is hard to see in sunlight. I wish the shortcut buttons just toggle through the settings and that I could see the resulting changes on the monochrome LCD.
-No spot metering
-Thumb wheel is too firm to easily rotate
-CF pins may be easy to bend resulting in expensive repairs(More Best Inexpensive Digital Camera Low Price)Tags: best digital camera, best inexpensive digital camera, best inexpensive digital camera low pric, buy best digital camera low price, buy best inexpensive digital camera, buy best inexpensive digital camera low, buy digital camera, cheap digital camera, digital camera, digital camera low price, inexpensive digital camera, inexpensive digital camera low price
