Love it so far!

(5 out of 5) by Amazon Customer on Jan 18, 2002 (Warwick, Rhode Island United States)
Even though my wife gave me this camera for Christmas, I did the research on the prices so that I would get the most out of my gift. I could not find all the stuff included in this kit anywhere else for under [PRICE]. I always liked the shots I got with my other cameras, but what great pics this one produces (this is my first SLR camera). Lots of settings to play and experiment with. Also, look closely at the picture of the lens. It is a 28 x 90, not the 35 x 80 that is advertised. Just try to find that lens with this body for this price anywhere else. The 28 makes a BIG difference for your indoor shots. I hope I don't have the problems Craig Prater wrote about in his review. I know a few people who also own this model and have not had a problem, so HOPEFULLY, his cameras problem was a fluke. I've shot many rolls since Christmas and love the quality. I'll keep my fingers crossed at the year and a half mark.

I love this little Camera !!

(5 out of 5) by Dario on Jun 16, 2002 (New Jersey, USA)
I bought this camera specially for learning professional photography, the Canon EOS Rebel G Date gave me more than I expected. Its light weight body and comfortable design makes it ideal for holding steady in those low shutter speed shots and overall carrying, my first roll was amazing! the colors were vivid and the subjects very sharp, I couldn't believe a beginner like me took those proffesional-looking pictures so easily. I definitively recommend the Canon EOS Rebel G

Great camera!

(5 out of 5) by Colin A Attar on Aug 12, 2002 (UConn)
I bought this camera about 2 weeks ago, and I must say, you cannot take a bad picture with it. Leave it in full auto mode, and the computers do their thing. Or, once your comfortable with it and feel like experimenting, try it in a semi-auto or full manual mode! Very easy to use! Just pick it up and start shooting!

Excellent Camera

(5 out of 5) by J. Carolina Van Luvender on May 21, 2002 (Dayton, OH United States)
I am the mother of two young children. I wanted an SLR camera that provided me with more options and better pictures that my point and shoot has. I shopped for months before choosing one that I liked. Canon has a reputation for producing the best. I am very pleased with my Rebel G. I especially like the quartz date option. It is easy to use for a beginner and the quality is great. I highly recommend this camera for ease, quality, and value.

So nice I bought it twice

(5 out of 5) by Marilyn E. Whipple on Nov 22, 2002 (Milton, MA United States)
I bought the Rebel G nearly 2 years ago and loved it immediately. I took it on a 16-day trip to Great Britain a year ago, and unfortunately lost the camera and all my undeveloped film on the way home. I was heartbroken, but the pictures were replaced by those taken by others on the trip, and I went out and bought the same terrific camera again. The pictures are so clear, the metering is very accurate, and it's comfortable to hold and use. Having a camera this good encourages me to take more pictures than I did with my old point & shoot.
