yes henleyb's recommendation

Good Points

Features nicely balanced, not overwhelming but everything is there should you need it.
Quick/easy operation

Bad Points

Changing ISO requires browsing the menus
LCD Screen suffers like all other LCD screens in strong sunlight making pictures hard to see.
Viewfinder is a little cramped, what appears to be in focus may actually be slightly out.
Kit lens isn't so great but for the money you can't complain.
Kit lens needs stopping down to F8-F11 for good sharpness.

General Comments

I love this Canon EOS 350D camera, it's brilliant. Having never used an SLR before, I spent a while learning everything I could about photography. The 350D made my learning easy, so then when I splashed out on some great lenses the pictures I got back were ace. I'm now considering a 5D but the 350D was a superb buy and if I couldn't get the 5D for whatever reason it wouldn't really bother me too much as the 350D does a great job anyway.

Highly recommended and will always consider Canon Cameras first before looking around.
