The precise auto focus system of the EOS 1000D keeps you focused for sharp images. Featuring a diamond-shaped array of seven AF points, this newly improved system delivers outstanding coverage of nearly any subject, both in horizontal and vertical formats.

When I had to make inevitable step of moving into my own place I found myself without a digital camera, which I found unacceptable. So I went searching through the selection on Dell.com.

Pros easy to use, lightweight,affordable, good value, overall good starter camera
Cons lacks some of the features ou might expect/want from an entry level DSLR
Recommended it? Yes

The canon eos 1000d - I know what your're thinking. Its a beginners camera.
