    "Incredible update of previous Canon dSLRs"

    by gkantz on May 3, 2009

    Pros: Obvious improvement in colors, sharpness, contrast (probably due to Digic 4); Live View improved; movies at 1080p; tons of features

    Cons: Live view mode "autofocus" means pressing a button to focus - annoying but otherwise minor in comparison to benefits.

    Summary: Fourth dSLR I've owned and as far as consumer-based models are concerned, this is far and away the best. Tremendous results with color, crispness and contrast. LCD much improved from prior models. Hate the tiny flash (that's why I have a Speedlite) but so be it. Face detection is good and other features are terrific. Seems like Canon (slightly) improved their menuing system as well. Movie mode is pretty good (although fps is low for 1080). But overall it was a great move from an anemic XS.
