CANON EOS 20D KIT: Would you like the combo?

bytheuerkorn Apr 25, 2005
45 Helpfuls 46 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Excellent camera, good starter lens, rich in features, good overall quality
Cons Mediocre lens which stifles some of the 20D functionality and quality
Recommended it? Yes

Kits are often a great opportunity to snatch typically more expensive individual components and bundle them into a discounted package. The same is true for the EOS 20D which can be had with or without the lens. Does it make sense to get the kit or simply skip to the body only and get a better lens?... Read full review »

Recommended it? Yes

I recently purchased the Canon REBEL T2i / EOS for a family vacation to niagara falls.  I have never owned a professional camera beforehand so I figured it would be difficult to learn but it was really simple.  Beautiful pictures, ample shot settings, and quick changing to different style...

Pros Many different shooting modes<br>Lovely contrast<br>Simple to master
Cons The camera cannot be set down without tipping forward, hard for self-timer.
Recommended it? Yes

I got this product as a gift and could not be happier with it.  I have been taking photography classes in school and became very interested in it, so I decided that I wanted a digital camera as well as a film camera.  I originally thought that it would never stand up to film, but so far...
