Canon’s New Rebel XSi
Canon announced their newest upgrade to the Rebel line with the improved XSi. The new features and upgrades for this camera are a 12.2 MP sensor, 3.5 FPS, 3.0” LCD, 9-point AF, DIGIC III image processor, and Live View. The two new feature additions to the camera that surprised me are the Live View and the DIGIC III processor. Both of these are great features I was just surprised to see them show up in the entry level camera before the prosumer version. My guess is the we will see a updated 40D soon that will have these features and more. One of things that I will be curious to see is the picture quality at higher ISO ratings. I am not sure how closely this is tied to the DIGIC III image processor but if it is anything close to the quality of the 1D MK III then this new camera will be one to beat at this price point.
