more...audience. The EOS 350D Digital employs Canon's acclaimed CMOS technology, for outstanding image quality and 8.0 Megapixel resolution. Always be primed for the next shot with responsive 3 frame per second, 14 frame burst performance and instant 0.2 second start up time. Powerful DIGIC II architecture taken from Canon's pro-series cameras ensures no compromise on sophisticated, effective and super-fast image processing. 7 auto focus points are distributed across the frame for fast, accurate focusing, even with off-center subjects. Lock focus before the shot with One Shot AF, or switch to AI Servo AF for predictive tracking of moving subjects - great for wildlife and sports photography. The powerful pop-up flash offers plenty of lighting flexibility. E-TTL II distance-linked flash reads lens distance information and ambient light for accurate flash metering: perfect for recomposed shots and difficult reflections. The camera is compatible with the entire EX Speedlite flash range, including the Speedlite 580EX, which transmits color temperature information for improved color stability. The EOS 350D Digital is compatible with more than 60 Canon EF lenses, including Canon's EF-S lenses. Before shooting, choose to optimize JPEG images either for direct printing or post processing. For ultimate flexibility, JPEG and RAW images write simultaneously. Canon's Digital Photo Professional RAW image processing software gives you post-shoot control over valuable RAW images. A USB 2.0 Hi-Speed interface ensures rapid image uploads and fast direct printing. Once connected directly to any PictBridge compatible printer, simply hit the 'Direct Print' button for an instant print of the displayed image; automatically sized and correctly aligned. The EOS 350D Digital takes both CF and CF-II cards, including cards of over 2GB capacity.

Perfect for advanced beginners-semi professionals who want to do more than point and shoot but don't want to break the bank.

Personally I think the quality of this camera is good enough for professional use, with the right lenses and using manual settings!! It produces stunning results. You can get them extremely cheap from ebay these days too.

I have recently upgraded to the 40D for the simple fact that at higher than 400 ISO the 350D's images can be a bit too noisy. However, I am still using the 350D as a back-up camera.

I have owned mine for nearly 3 years and it has lasted through the continuous use well. It's very light but feels sturdy so it's not easy to break.

As for which lenses to get, I recommend just to look out for a lens which goes lower than f/3.5, as a rule of thumb the lower the f number the better the lens.
