Product Rating: 8 star(s) Beautiful photos, but I would change a few things.

The camera is great, for the price. I'm very much an amateur, and I'm sure I'm not getting all that I could out of the camera, yet. I've heard complaints that the camera is too light, but I like the weight -- I was actually expecting it to be much lighter, considering the reviews I read. The controls aren't as intuitive as they could be. The guide is a little hard for the layman to understand, so it's taken me awhile to figure out how to do some simple things, with the camera. I find myself wondering, "Why can't I turn off the flash in this mode?" "Why can't I adjust the ISO in this mode?" Maybe I can, but I haven't found a way, so far, and the guide is kind of thick... and tiny. But I have taken some great photographs, with it. It came highly recommended by a great photographer, and I just have yet to achieve the quality that she gets out of the camera. It's also a little hard to tell how clear your photos come out, because the lcd is so small. I would recommend the camera

QuickTake:

Pros: It has great reaction time, many of the portraits turn out great. Options for almost everything
Cons: Seems like the controls could be more intuitive, not as many flash-free options

I bought this camera three years ago and have played with the more current xti model as well. The buttons are easy to navigate and Canon, as always, has great color/picture quality. Not much has changed with the newer model (mainly the amount of megapi

Product Rating: 5 star(s) Product Reviews: Canon EOS 350D

Comments:
However, we were surprised to find the 350D offers PictBridge support because we think most enthusiasts or professionals (who are most likely to buy this model) will want to look at their images up-close and personal, in some sort of image editing package

Review Verdict: If you've got photography coursing through your veins, Canon's EOS 350D is well worth your time. At $1,085 - lens included - it also offers excellent value for money.
