excellent camera for quick, clear pictures

2007-11-10
We went back and forth between a film and digital camera. We decided on the Canon Rebel Date Camera due to the quickness of the shutter since we have small children. I did not want the delay a digital camera has and did not have the money to spend for a quick shutter digital camera. Our pictures come out crystal clear and we get all kinds of rave reviews on the pictures we do take with our camera. This is the 2nd camera that we have bought that is Canon and have nothing but good things to say about them. I do wish they came with a camera bag - but we can buy that separately.

Is a very nice camera but the one i got did not have day date option
so i sent it back.

Trying to purchase a camera on-line sucks!!!!!!!!!!!

This is our 2nd order for the same type of camera and we still don;t have it!!! 1st order in early September had to be refunded because the seller never shipped the camera, his email addressess were invalidated and we never heard from him again! Now our 2nd attempt thru a different seller is also questionnable as it;s been a few days and still the item has not even been shipped out. If we don't receive the camera by friday, we'll have to go out and buy one at a shop. I am done with ordering equipment thru the internet! What a waste of time and this is for my;s son's photography class!

Lightweight esay to use cmaera loaded with options

The Canon EOS Rebel K2 SLR, with the 28-90 zoom lens is a good buy. Camera stores in my area (NW Arkansas) can't even come close to the price I paid for a new camera. It's light, easy to carry and it has an automatic point and click feature that makes this amateir look better than he is.

Cheaply Made. Huge Disappointment.

This camera is cheap. It even feels cheap. The first time we loaded film, it jammed and has never worked since. I have for years bought only Canon products which is why I purchased this replacement for an older Canon Rebel (which I loved) that had dropped and broke. Now I'm so turned off by this poorly manufactured Canon product that I'm looking to replace all of my lenses so that I can find a system that's better made.

The information provided in the product description helped me choose what camera I wanted. The Canon Rebel with the 28-210 Lens kit is great!!!

Amazing Camera

2008-02-06
I have been using this camera for a high school photography class, and it is definitely well worth the price. The lens it comes with is great. The camera is extremely user friendly. Though it is plastic, it feels very durable, and has survived 2 drops (USE YOUR STRAP NO MATTER WHAT! :P) without a mark. I feel I will be using this camera for a long time to come.

Side note: the lens can be used with any canon cameras that support it, including digitals!

Canon EOS REBEL K2 35mm SLR Camera

2007-12-30
I was looking for a film 35mm SLR and found this one on Amazon, I love it, I have the Canon Rebel XT and wanted a Canon SLR. I love how the film automatically advances the film and displays how much film you have left, and the speed of the film. I also like this camera because you can set it to AV/TV/M and play with the apertures, and shutter speed, and if you don't want to use these features you can set it to the basic zones where everything is automatic. I am still getting used to the settings but my pictures so far have developed very nicely.

	Sony Cybershot DSCS90 4.1 MP Digital Camera with 3x Optical Zoom Review: "This Camera is one of the best in its price range. It takes beautiful clear pictures and can be used right out of the box, but its worth learning all its features. The included memory holds about 20-25 pictures so I upgraded to 128mb. I reccomend getting a 128mb card and the Sony camera case. Not only is this one of the best cameras in its class it includes decent software and rechargeable batteries that are at least a 20$ value. HIGHLY reccomend over canon,kodak, and fuji. One more thing this camera has CARL Zeiss lens (if you dont know, great lens) all the competetors have generic lens."

Editorial Reviews from Book News, Inc.
A couple of digital photography experts weigh the advantages and disadvantages of film vs. digital photography, and explain the basics underlying both types of photography. The Grottas provide reality checks on such issues as whether the number of megapixels really matter, and tips on camera selection, use, and e-mailing and organizing photos. The handbook includes color and b&w images, a glossary, and sidebars and Web links for further technical details.Copyright © 2004 Book News, Inc., Portland.

From the Back Cover The megapixel hype
The fact is a camera’s megapixel rating is only a measure of how many pixels (photosensitive sites) an image sensor has…. An image sensor is simply one component of an entire system that produces a digital photograph… So resist buying into the megapixel hype when you’re choosing a digital camera. From Chapter 1
