Canon Rebel XTi Camera Review:The Canon Digital Rebel XTi Camera offers unbeatable performance, ease use and value. Canon Rebel XTi has a newly designed 10.1-megapixel CMOS sensor plus a host of new features including a 2.5-inch LCD monitor, the exclusive EOS Integrated Cleaning System, and Canon’s Picture Style technology, all in a lightweight, ergonomic body. The Canon Digital Rebel XTi is proof positive that Canon continues to lead the way with our phenomenal digital SLRs.

Canon Rebel XTi Have 10.1-Megapixel APS-C Size CMOS Sensor
Canon Rebel XTi’s large-area CMOS (Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor) sensor captures images with exceptional clarity and tonal range, and offers the most pixels in its class. This APS-C size sensor (22.2 x 14.8mm) has the same 3:2 ratio as film cameras, enabling an effective angle of view that is 1.6x the normal EF lens focal length. With pixel resolution of 3,904 x 2,598, the Canon Digital Rebel XTi not only offers the most pixels in its class, but bests many professional-level cameras. Recorded on Canon’s CMOS sensor, each pixel is captured with fine detail to create images of tremendous depth, nuance, and resolution, ensuring enough information for even poster-sized prints.

DIGIC II Image Processor
The Canon Rebel XTi is the product of Canon’s extensive in-house development: The DIGIC II Image Processor was designed specifically for Canon digital SLR cameras and enhances every aspect of image capture. Information captured by the CMOS sensor is processed and assembled into images of exceptional quality.

Responsive and Reliable
The Canon Rebel XTi has a brilliant 2.5-inch LCD monitor with approximately 230,000 pixels. Also used in Canon’s Professional EOS SLRs, this screen displays more than images. Shooting information and playback are both displayed on the LCD, so that the photographer can see all of the shooting information simultaneously on one screen. Not only can images be viewed larger than on the Canon Rebel XTi, they can be viewed at a greater angle (160 degrees) than many other conventional LCD monitors.

Display Off Sensor
When composing images, the Canon Rebel XTi’s external display turns off automatically thanks to the newly developed Display Off Sensor. This new sensor detects the photographer’s face against the back panel of the camera, and turns the screen off to prevent the LCD monitor’s brightness from disturbing the photographer’s eye while looking through the viewfinder.

Speedy Operation
With a startup time of 0.2 seconds, the EOS Canon Rebel XTi is ready to go the instant it’s brought to the eye. And the Canon Rebel XTi’s shutter can record images as fast as 1/4000 seconds and as long as 30 seconds, plus bulb at up to 3 frames per second (fps) for 27 consecutive shots. It synchronizes with Canon Speedlites at 1/200 second.

EF-S 18-55mm f3.5-5.6 USM Standard Zoom Lens
This Canon Rebel XTi includes a standard zoom exclusively for the EOS Canon Digital Rebel XTi and EOS 20D SLR cameras, with APS-C size image circle equivalent to an approximately 28-90mm focal length. The lens is compact and ultra-lightweight with impressive close-focusing ability of 0.9 feet (0.28 meters). It features optimized coating for digital imaging sensor to minimize ghost images and flare.

Canon Rebel XTi Build-in 9-Point AF
The EOS Canon Rebel XTi has a high-precision 9-point AF system for speedy and accurate focusing in any situation. Conveniently located on the back of the camera for thumb-controlled action, Canon Rebel XTi’s cross key buttons enable instant choice of the 9 focus points or allow the Canon Rebel XTi to choose them automatically. One-Shot is perfect for still photography. AI Servo AF tracks moving subjects, ensuring accurate focus. AI Focus AF switches between One-Shot and AI Servo when subjects are moving and stopping. The Canon Rebel XTi’s focusing system functions in metering ranges of EV-0.5 to 18 and displays information on the Canon Rebel XTi’s big LCD display.

Canon Rebel XTi’s Picture Style settings
With Picture Style technology and the EOS Canon Rebel XTi, photographers can recreate characteristics of their favorite films. Color, saturation, sharpness, and contrast settings create noticeable variation in the saved image. In addition to six preset Picture Styles (Standard, Portrait, Landscape, Neutral, Faithful, and Monochrome), users can create three additional settings for their particular photographic style.

Canon Rebel XTi’s Print/Share Button
With Canon Rebel XTi printing and uploading to a computer is incredibly simple with the Digital Rebel XTi’s Print/Share button. By connecting the Canon Digital Rebel XTi to a computer via the USB 2.0 port, it’s easy to transfer some or all of the photographs in the cameras memory to folders on the computer.

EF and EF-S Lenses
The EOS Canon Rebel XTi is compatible with all Canon lenses in the EF lineup, ranging from ultra-wide-angle to super-telephoto lenses, and including Canon’s EF-S series lenses, manufactured specifically for Canon’s APS-C sized digital sensor. Canon lenses employ advanced optical expertise and micron-precision engineering to deliver unprecedented performance in all facets of the photographic process. Aspherical optics and fluorite elements, for example, are featured in the universally acclaimed L-Series lenses, and Canon’s Image Stabilizer technology in select lenses minimizes the effect of camera shake.

Flash Photography
The EOS Canon Rebel XTi features the acclaimed E-TTL II flash metering system. Whether using its flush-mounted integral flash (guide no. of 43 feet/13 meters at ISO 100), or any of the flashes in the EX Speedlite line, E-TTL II provides reliable flash output through numerous exposures.

Canon Rebel XTi’s Software
The EOS Canon Digital Rebel XTi comes bundled with the updated Canon EOS Digital Solution Disk (Version 13.0), which features powerful software programs designed to extend the EOS experience to the computer. These include Canon’s ZoomBrowser EX for Windows (Version 5.7), ImageBrower for Macintosh OS X (Version 5.7), Digital Photo Professional (Version 2.2), Canon’s EOS Utility (Version 1.1) and PhotoStitch (Version 3.1). Each application is designed to perfect captured images and streamline the digital workflow.

Dependable for Cleaning the Sensor
The EOS Canon Rebel XTi not only sports a newly refined body with better ergonomics and a new grip, but it also has some of Canon’s most advanced improvements in dust reduction. No matter how careful photographers may be to change lenses in dust free areas and to keep their equipment as clean as possible, dust often ends up on their cameras’ sensors, creating distracting spots on recorded images. The Canon Rebel XTi’s integrated hardware and software solutions make trouble with dust a thing of the past. The Canon Rebel XTi is the first digital EOS SLR camera to feature this important technology: by ensuring the sensor is free of dust and debris, the camera guarantees a cleaner image.

Canon Rebel XTi’s Self Cleaning Sensor Unit
To combat stray dust that enters the camera and adheres to the image sensor during a lens change, the Canon Digital Rebel XTi features an all new Canon-designed Self Cleaning Sensor Unit. The low-pass filter cleans itself automatically with ultrasonic vibrations, removing dust from the sensor assembly.

Canon Rebel XTi Build-in Dust Delete Data Detection
Dust that has been missed by the Integrated Self Cleaning Sensor Unit can also be erased with software included in Digital Photo Professional (DPP) Version 2.2. The Canon Rebel XTi’s imaging sensor is able to single out the dust particles on its surface, then plots out their location coordinates within the image. This data is transmitted along with the image, whether JPEG or RAW, and can be either manually or automatically erased in Canon’s DPP 2.2. This added software option ensures the cleanest possible image, perfect for printing or archiving.
