Canon Digital Rebel XSi Details
Editors' Comments
It's the big one: the latest installment in Canon's Digital Rebel series of cameras, the 450D, which blends the professional power of Canon's 40D with the user-friendly presentation of the Digital Rebel line. The 450D (XSi) is a digital SLR that presents professional-level quality and versatility in an approachable, affordable package. The 450D features 'live view,' allowing photographers to preview their shots on the LCD and not just through the viewfinder, and the fast Canon DIGIC III processor. Its 12.2-megapixel CMOS sensor will provide finely detailed images with enough resolution for poster-sized blow ups and exceptional photo prints.
