The Bottom Line	The Canon EOS Digital Rebel XT is an exceptionally small and lightweight camera designed for amateur digital SLR photographers, but it delivers the responsiveness and image quality you'd expect from a semipro model.	The Canon EOS Rebel XS is a good entry-level dSLR, but only its photo quality stands out among the competition.	It doesn't stand out for its feature set or design, but the Canon EOS Rebel XSi delivers on performance and photo quality.	A solid, slightly better-than-basic dSLR, the Canon EOS Rebel T1i delivers photo quality and performance that adequately compensates for most of its annoyances.	The Nikon D40 is a great transition camera for going from point-and-shoot to your first dSLR.
