The EOS Digital Rebel is undoubtedly the most important dSLR of 2003 (Steve's Digicams - 11/13/03)

'Phenomenal" battery life, "excellent" autofocus, and an unprecedented low price makes the Canon Digital Rebel a standout among digital SLRs. read original review

The other camera companies must be nervous (DC Resource - 10/20/03)

A nearly flawless review of the Canon Digital Rebel, which aced its photographic tests and delivers the best photo image of any camera in its price range (as of 10/03). Minor drawbacks include an "average" burst mode and the camera's use of its flash as the autofocus-assist light. read original review

The Digital Rebel's excellent image quality, light weight, and budget price tag are appealing (PC Magazine - 9/17/03)

These reviewers conclude that the Digital Rebel offers "essentially identical" image quality to the acclaimed Canon 10D, but at a substantially lower price. Serious photographers may note that the camera's flash is weak, and that its mirror noise is louder than other digital cameras when taking a picture. read original review
