General Comments

In layman's terms this Canon EOS 350D camera is a bit of a corker! It certainly doesn't come cheap, but with this camera you most certainly get what you pay for. I just love the 8.0 Megapixel resolution, which results in some serious quality shots.

I'm an avid wildlife watcher, and this camera has allowed me to take some priceless pics of the wild. Mainly thanks to the focus and artificial intelligence of the camera, not to mention my natural flair for photography! The camera is probably the best I have had for linking up to my PC and printing off quality shots. It's an idiot proof process which allows you to print directly from the camera! The high speed USB interface is worth its weight in gold.

The camera is also compatible with 60 other Canon lenses, which is a nice bonus, and it has a neat flashlight which allows you to see what your doing in the dark!

As you can probably tell by now, I love this camera, however there is a downside. The price! This thing costs an arm and a leg, and I have to say you should only buy this camera if your a serious enthusiast or a professional. Anyone else would simply not get any kind of value out of it.
