In case you need the camera TODAY, you can get it at Costco for $849.99. Comes with both lenses, a camera bag, and a 2gb memory card. This was at the South San Francisco Costco on El Camino Real. |

Well of course it does. If it aint expensive it must not be that good right...? lol I actually know people who shop like that. Just ridiculous. |

Hahaha...silly folks..Did I ever say "Buy Nikon, dont buy Canon" Cmon folks grow up from your red and green flags...life is more than that... My previous statement was my own point of view....and I said what I felt after using both..and i dont think there is anything wrong in it.. |

Consumer Reports has this XSi in the number 2 spot under Basic SLR's and surprisingly, Pentax is #1.. It also seems that Canon has fewer repair issues than Nikon..For a sub $1000 camera, this is a pretty good deal.. |

I spotted the same discount appeared on Costco.com but the kit does not come with a bag. I was going to get Nikon D90 kit from Costco. However, after I learned the d90 body is made in Thailand and lens are made in China; and got advice from a friend who is professional in photographer. Even thought he advised me to buy Nikon over Canon (he is using a Canon 5D thou); however, it is coming down to my personal choice on "made in thailand / china" vs "made in japan". Anyhow, I am a very beginner in photographer. I think I am going with Canon Xsi for now; and going to get a better one in 2 yrs later (I do plan to buy a better / higher grade in 2010 before I take a trip to oversea). Good post! |

when you get into the more expensive lenses.. nikon is known for having better wides, and canon is known for having better telephotos. look at the sidelines of any sports game.. the photographers are using canon equipment. |

yeah03 said:How about this? The 75-300mm lens doesn't have IS. I'm thinking the IS will come in handy when you're using that kind of zoom... It can be had from Amazon (link) for ~$140, so I don't think that's really a great deal. Personally, I jumped on Canon's loyalty program and got the refurb Digital Rebel XT few months back. Love it, especially when my photos turn out better than friends' with 40D, and I'm just a noob... So are they, but they spent way more than I did. Sometimes it just really isn't the camera but the person behind it!!! |
