Canon EOS 350D: Compare prices  Editors' choice

By Michael Shapiro, CNET Asia on 16/08/2006

More Canon reviews , RRP: AU$1499.00

The good:

  • Image quality leads its class
  • Competitive price
  • Ultrafast start-up time
  • Very responsive

The bad:

  • Lightweight plastic body isn't ergonomically satisfying
  • No spot meter
  • Limited continuous-shooting mode, unimpressive kit lens
  • 1.6x lens-conversion factor

The bottomline:

The Canon EOS 350D is an exceptionally small and lightweight camera designed for amateur dSLR owners, but it delivers the responsiveness and image quality you'd expect from a semipro model.
