...was for a US import, Canon Digital Rebel which is the same as the EOS300D, but as it was in the UK so no risk of customs charges I decided that now was the time to go seriously digital.
Choosing the Canon EOS300D was influenced by a number of factors, price being one, but also I had a Canon EOS 500n QD – their mid range film camera. Along with this camera I have bags and lenses all of which work well with the digital rebel (or at least they did ... ...explain why later.
Also Canon are offering £100 cash back if you buy a 300D between 1st November 2004 and January 31st 2005 – not sure if it applies to EBay purchases, but worth a try! (Go to the canon UK website and there is a link - or call them on 0800 180 4095 ref: 300D)
Why do I stress the DIGITAL lens? Well – the EOS300D will accept any of the Canon AF (Auto Focus) lenses, but when working out their ‘range’ you need to multiply it by a factor ...

I have had a Canon EOS1000N for some years, and then went over to digital in the shape of a Minolta 304. However I really wanted to get back to the SLR world, so the 300D was an exciting prospect. I am aware that Canon is not the only one making a digital SLR, and that they have been around in the professional world for a few years now, but the 300D is the cheapest of the new lot of digital SLRs. Incidentally don't be fooled by Nikon's equivalent. ... ...may as well get a Canon 10D and be done with it
The beauty of the SLR is, of course, its versatility. Another important consideration is the speed of response. Having struggled with the Minolta’s very tardy shutter action (action? yawn, perhaps) it is with immense satisfaction that I can now shoot action stuff without missing endless shots. Landscape and set-piece photographers will not be impressed with this, but Ben doing his stuff on the trampoline ...

Advantages: Great autofocus and exposure performance. LCD screen. Can work with microdrives. Disadvantages: Build. Not to a traditional SLR build standards.
...Nikon and Minolta (now Konica-Minolta).
Canon has made some of the best SLRs in history. Now, deep into the digital era, The Japanese brand aims This EOS 300 D to the advanced amateur photographer who wants or need to shift to digital without spending a fortune on more pro oriented stuff.
BUILD AND ERGONOMICS
Everybody who’s been deep enough in this big worl of photography knows that you pay for what you get. I mean your 1500 pounds will buy you ... ...I have to say that Canon is a master on this field. This camera is a pleasure to use and you don’t have to fiddle too much with the controls.
The LCD screen at the back is well protected against scratches of any sort with a thick layer of strong plastic
Although, as many other LCD screens the image gets a bit tricky to see although this is agreat one in comparison.
As an ex-pro my modest advice is the following: frame your subject using the viewfinder.

Travels with my 400D
I’ve been putting off writing this review for months and months. I’ve been waiting until I know just about as much about the camera as I possibly can, but I’ve come to the conclusion that this will never happen, more
At last, a miracle in SLR technology. The Canon EOS focuses back to the 'old school' photographers world and can help even an amateur into a new dimension of imagery.

I owned a 20D before this and so my view is relative to that camera. The 5D feels very much like the 20D and 30D in that it is pretty much the same size and operationally very similar except for not having any kind of built-in flash.
