I'm not sure what your flash needs are but it sounds like you use flash pretty often so a decent one might be a good idea. I recently replaced a Sigma 500 Super that I appear to have worn out with a a 430EX II. Nice flash - good feature set, powerful enough for all but the largest venues, not too big, recharged VERY fast and silently and tilts AND swivels so you can always use ceiling bounce no matter what orientation you're shooting in plus, if you ever upgrade to a 580EX, you can use the 480EX as an ETTL slave. AND, starting April 3rd, Canon will be offering the following INSTANT rebates: SPEEDLITE 580EX II - $50 SPEEDLITE 430EX II - $30 SPEEDLITE 220EX - $30 That will put the 430EX II around $240 or $250.

Yes I also noticed that. I had purchased this camera last month and returned mine for an exchange due to possibly being defective (after an email exchange with Canon support). Unfortunately they then emailed me that they no longer had it in stock and didn't know when they were going to get more. They could only offer me a refund. They finally showed it back in stock but then I was amazed at the price! I even emailed them to find out why but just got a non answer (to be expected I guess) about how their suppliers set the prices. As you say, this price is higher than Canons, so it makes you wonder what they are playing at. I guess they don't want anyone to buy it from them...!

Too busy shooting to write. Anyway, I have a red copy.Sum: great investment. Clean/sharp images, fast and crisp focus (even in low light), superb high-ISO performance (cut my flash use in half over the holidays), excellent user interface, easy to handle, etc. Wish it had a viewfinder indicator for AF point but I'm able to work around that with no problem.I'm keeping the K-X (general usage) to complement my K-7 (event and outdoor photography). If I had to pick just one, I might even stick with the K-X. For my style and situations, it's that good.

Hey, i just purchased the Nikon D60... i am thinking about exchanging it for the XTI for the same reason. the time to for the flash to "refresh" really makes it hard to catch the moment when flash is needed. Are you stil happy with your exchange? Can anyone comment on the reasons for the substantially slower flash in the Nikon D60 when compared to the canon XTI? Also, i heard that the Canon XTI is being taken out of the market and only the XSi will remain... is that true?

I think it was a freak event. I received mine in perfect condition and love the camera. I take it everywhere I go because it's compact and takes great shots.

So i played around with it all weekend and i'm loving this camera. Last powershot i had was the SD870 IS. I also own a Canon Rebel XTI DSLR camera. So i'm a big Canon fan. All the features are great on this camera, i wasnt sure if i was going to keep this one and wait for the sx210 to be released but i'm definitely keeping this one. The touchscreen is very responsive and fast. The quality of the shots are also great.

I found the Canon Rebel XSi a fairly easy to use. Of course I had used this type camera before so it was not very difficult for me to immediately pick up and use. The lens that comes as standard with it should be adequate; however lens are interchangeable and a different focal lens may in line to adapt for different occasions. I think just off the shelf the camera will suffice. This Rebel is one tough one for every use with the proper lens.

Did anybody ever let you know (or did you get the Fuji to find out) how quickly it will take a photo? I have a Canon and want to go with a smaller, less expensive, more durable model/make - but I need instant images.

I recently bought the SX10IS and it's a nice camera, zoom is kind of noisy for the price, so I am sending it back and waiting on the SX1IS to come in. I want the faster burst rate, the HD movie quality and the remote control features.

I pre-ordered. I agree with PencilInWin - the early bug rate in newly released Canon cameras has been very high. The 1DM3 had the focus issues, my 5DM2 had the notorious "error 20" issues necessitating 3 (yes, that's three) trips to the Canon repair facility for shutter assembly replacements. However, I got an early 1DsM3 and I am thrilled with it. I am going to sell my 5dM2 and switch the workflow I used to do with it to the 1DM4. Hope Canon got this one right from the get-go.

yes but we have had this camera for a while now and it has black spots that show up on all the photos. I think its the auto focus. I would go with Canon b/c i have had great cameras from them ... just not this one.

So far I have not had a problem with the flash. However, most of the photos I have taken have been landscapes with good lighting so the flash hasn't been used all that much. Sorry I haven't anymore info and good luck.

Just keep in mind that the Canon XSi does not have video at all. And the LCD screen does not support live view. Other than that I think the XSi is a good DSLR Camera to start with a DSLR experience. But it is not as great as T2i.

How do you do, Mr. Ryan. I call it Suzuki, the staff of a bell. Thank you for your consideration. Since this mail is using the translator, it has made a mistake in it, and although it may be an acatalepsy, please allow it. Although I am carrying out simultaneous sale of this camera also in the store in Tokyo, it is still in stock. It is a late model of XP series of FUJIFILM. In order of XP60 -&gt;XP150 -&gt;XP200, it is the most expensive and performance is also the most wonderful. Is it an answer of the question? Moreover, please do not hesitate to ask a question.

Brian, I think you misinterpreted my comment about the Canon XSi. I didn't have any problem with the camera itself, I said that Canon's kit lens is no match to Olympus kit lens/s and that I would need a lot of money to replace canon's with prime lens/s that match Oly's quality and focal range not mention the weight. I don't believe in investing in expensive lenses while using mid-range DSLR body. The cost of lens/s should be inline with the cost of the body something which I find Olympus doing better by providing inexpensive, good quality lenses even at their standard level.

I beleive my camera was a new one. The 1st one I recieved did not work and they replaced it.Have had no problems with it except I keep forgetting to take it along to events!!

The Canon 50D and the XSi are actually two different classes of cameras, even so you can't go wrong purchasing either camera. Both can take fantastic photos, with the right lens. Some differences the Xsi is smaller and lighter. The 50D is larger, heavier duty, and has better weather sealing. The 50D comes with a better kit lens. The Xsi is less expensive so it leaves more money to buy better lenses for it. The 50D has a higher frame rate which makes it a better camera for sports photography. But, again you can't go wrong with either camera, it really depends on your budget and what you want to photograph and which camera feels better in your hands.
