Product Description
Ideal for a wide range of photographers from first-time digital SLR users to veteran photo enthusiasts, the new Canon EOS Rebel XS camera is designed to embody what you have come to expect from the EOS Rebel series — a fast, non-intimidating, lightweight, easy-to-use camera that produces excellent images and starts emerging photographers off on the right foot. Immediately, photographers will take notice of the camera’s Optical Image Stabilized kit lens for crisp focus, compensating for camera shake from unsteady hands or a moving vehicle.

I have owned this camera since 2004, so I find the earlier review, written in 2008, which suggests this camera isn’t sending folks flocking to the stores, a little strange. The flocks are probably looking for newer models. Anyway, after four years, I needed a new battery, and found myself checking out the newest options for a moment, and thought I’d review my reliable old friend.
This camera is fast, quiet, and the photos are outstanding. I primarily use the automatic functions, and it is a breeze to get amazing photos. I am an avid amateur photographer with more of an interest in the composition of the picture than in exposure settings and such, and I have found this camera to be wonderful in every way. After four years, the two batteries I have had since the beginning are finally failing, and I have had a few minor problems during battery malfunctions. Other than that, the camera is durable, has traveled the world, taken thousands upon thousands of photos, around the world, and of my precious children at home. A favorite subject of mine is flowers, and this camera does an amazing job on those as well. I couldn’t be happier with this camera, and can only hope it will give me another four years, or more!

Received this through Amazon for Xmas. “Error 99″ repeatedly occurred. Tried a different battery, different memory card, clean lens contacts as recommended. Tried a different lens. No fix.
Will be sending back to Amazon for credit. Will have to think about ordering another of the XS. Maybe try an XSI? Seems people on this site have had focusing problems with that though.

Got e99 error after one month. Bought it for Xmas and now it is dead. Changing battery, sd card and lens doesn’t help at all. After the error, the len autoclean doesn’t work any more. You can let it clean once in the menu but it automatic turned off the automatic clean no matter what you set. I am not the first one got e99 error. See the other one star review. He had a similar problem. Contacting amazon custom service now and hope it is still in their holiday return period.

The reviews I read before purchasing this camera made me believe this would be very easy to use and “a great beginner” camera….Although I really do love this camera, I think I need to take a class before truely getting out of it what I planned. I’m excited to have an SLR camera, but can’t use more than the “auto” mode.

This item is exactly what I needed for my photography class in college. The only thing I needed that I did not get from this product was an SD card.
