Good Points
Wide range of functions, and ability to control shots manually. Excellent beginner SLR camera. Definately affordable
Bad Points
Focusing somewhat hedgey; with only three focus points, it may take a bit to get the right focus in AF mode (and occasionally the camera will give up). Camera also has a tendency to underexpose photos
General Comments
Got this Canon Rebel G 35mm SLR camera as a quick replacement for a Rebel II that died 2 weeks before a shoot, was quite pleased with the range of features for the price and the learning curve. Only things I could see improving are the Auto-Focus mode; camera tends to hunt sometimes, or give up altogether; also the camera tends to calculate exposure on the side of underexposing shots.
