  1. unfortunately, I don´t know what "awesome" means :-( .... terrible maybe ? why ?
  2. I just got the T1i to replace my XT. At first, i thought i was making a mistake since the XT was awesome, but now that i have been using the new camera. I cant put it down. This camera is easy to work with and figure out. The switch to SD cards makes it even better now that I dont have to get special made memory cards for the camera. The result is fanastic. the only con i can think of is just that its all out of plastic, I miss the old metal/plastic frame at times.
  3. I've gone and tested a few of these at a couple electronics stores around town, it's astounding how cheap they feel compared to the XT. The Rebel never felt as solid or high-quality as say the X0D series, but the XSi and T1i feel like toys by comparison.
  4. This camera is awesome. I almost wish I had waited and bought this instead on my 5d Mark II. I guess the full frame and 21MP is worth it though. But If I had not already purchased the 5D Mark II I would probably buy this... The 1.6 crop factor comes in handy for wildlife...
  5. Just bought one. Replaced my XSi. Great camera: as always, fantastic image quality, outstanding resolution, and an amazing scratch resistant new LCD. An excelent option even compared to more expensive cameras, like D50 or Nikon D90. Don't care much for the video. I'm not gonna use it.
