It does what it says on the label

I am still using it, even after 5 years.
1 of 1 found this helpful I bought this camera (albeit in black) in 2005. I've been using mine almost continually ever since. It's an absolutely phenomenal camera. It's a bit outclassed now in terms of megapixels but 8 megapixels will still produce an excellent 16 x 24 inch print or at a push even a 20 x 30 inch print. I've exhibited 16 x 24 prints in state-level competitions taken with this camera.
The batteries are decent and I do advise the battery grip. Canon batteries seem to work well but the knock-offs I've had have generally been a waste of money as they die after two or three charges.
The kit lens is much maligned but used within its capabilities is excellent.
As far as the body is concerned, it works well enough. Focussing is generally pretty reasonable though not excellent. I have never managed to get really crisp eyes from a portrait with this and this is due to the vagueness of the focussing. The same lens on a 30D produces really crisp eyes. This is not all bad though - it does excellent landscape and building photos. Focussing on low contrast is more miss than hit as is low-light focussing. Adding the STE-2 to help with focussing helps a bit but not much. I have used this to produce excellent studio shots of static subjects and even used the pictures taken for publication in a couple of books that have been published.
This is a reasonably good camera. The 30D is far superior but I still keep my XT.
