Easy to use (read manual carefully) Fast Focus Great Pictures https://www.flashpartyphotobooth.com/oklahoma-city

A bit heavy, that's usually the case for a SLR body. Focus in low light is a little tricky. Built in flash is not powerful enough when subject is more than 10 feet away. smppros.net/

Absolutely brilliant camera, hard working, non pretentious, does whats asked of it and great way to get into DSLR photography

Some ass decided they felt the same way about the camera and liberated it from my locked car, pissed to the extreme as the camera wasnt worth a great deal anymore(dollar wise) and I cant afford a new DSLR at the moment, reluctant to opt for the cheaper and affordable eos1100d, much rather save some dosh and go for the 60d... so at the moment I am relegated to my old canon A430 p&s.... sob sob sob...

Loved the camera but someone else loved it more.... thieving a-holes....

Its still going relentlessly after four years of shooting

It doesnt make coffee

I bought my EOS300d about four years ago now and I have nothing but great photographic experiences with it. It was my first digital camera, I opted for the DSLR EOS because I wanted something a bit more serious than the average point and shoot and also I have an EOS620 35mm with zoom lenses, 2X adaptor and flash gun which of course all go on the 300d no problems. I have used to camera in SE Asia, I used it to get some great pictures at Formula One, I used it to get great pictures of wild life, I used it to get great pictures of ancient buildings and ruins, I have used it to get great pictures of people and heve never ever had a problem with the exception of Cambodia during the wet season when the camera fogged chronicly...
Even now four odd years on I am still using the original battery, it may not hold the same length of charge anymore but it still takes care of business.
I wouldnt swap this camera for anything other than a 5dmkII or 1dsnIII, I like the heavet weight of it, it feels like a camera should.

Price, EOS system compatability, everything generally.

Low ISO range, Slooooooow start up and writing times.

Great product for the money, and an ideal cam for the beginner. Plenty of options to get you going on the photography learning curve. I did have some major noise issues with longer exposures, even at low ISO settings, but overcame them by using shorter shutter time. Cant use Ansel Adams old techniques with a digicam eh If you have realistic expectations of what an entry level D-SLR can do, then you will not be dissapointed with this one at all.. I shoot only RAW so the write times are rediculously slow.

its an ok cam for any starter fotoman.good batts life, i use w/batts grip.

ccd is weak in details contrast, not too sharp, no matter what lens you try.blow hilites.

i bought this 300d when its 1st came out.ive also bought about 15 diff canon lenses for it thru the yrs.till now its i only use it as my back up cam, its seems to known for blown highlights.colors are neutral, but kinda dull looking compare to my fuji s2 pro.for what it worth, its only good enough for the starter, its an ok cam, nothing to praise about..most canon consumer lenses made for it are also ok..i had both canon IS lenses, like the 28-135mm and the 70-300mm, but i sold them both, they werent worth thier price either.i found that when i've used the nikon lenses on canon 300d w/adapter ring, all manual setting, pics turned out much better.i think canon ccd was made to just good enough in sharpness, never crispy , razor sharp. i always have to fit my pics w/csfotoshop. to add more contrast and help out color saturation, plus add usm.. its an average cam, nothing special about it.

Image quality Ease of use Status LCD on the BACK! Almost everything!

Grey body Higher flash sync would be nice Buttons (only the 4-way) feel cheap ISO not indicated in viewfinder.

Its great to have an SLR again after using digital point and shots for a while. After the photo lab shut down I switched to digital, only now, could I afford a DSLR. This camera is wonderful. Its very easy to use for those used to SLR cameras, is quite fast shot to shot, and is just pleasure to use. A lot of people reading this review are also think 'bout buying a Nikon D70. This is how I see it, 300D has much better image quality, the D70 has better features. Personally, I didn't need the extra features, for me, image quality was more important. Though I wish the Canon had the start-up time of the Nikon! And the Canon is a lot cheaper. Honestly, the biggest thing that bugs me with my 300d, is the 4-way and "set" buttons. They feel cheap. They don't articulate smoothly, yes thats the worst of it! Oh, and if you on the fence with DSLR versus point and shoot. I almost always use manual, never would use Auto on a camera like this. Don't let plastic body haters get to you. The body is great, ugly grey color, but great. As for the 18-55 EF-S kit lens. Image quality is pretty good. But the lens feels rough while zooming, and the manual focus ring is poor.

Others already said, also the creaky body, lack of external sync port.

Please note: I am a pro photographer and not the intended audience for this camera. I am also a long time Canon user...close to 15 years now and still loyal to the brand. However this review is my opinion, and I know it is going to run counter to what others have said. That said, this camera is showing its age now. It's target market is solely for the amatuer and it is not the best in its class. Build quality is very poor. Feels OK with a plastic lense on but put a heavy L on and you will soon hear the creaking. If you are an amatuer looking for to buy a digital SLR look VERY carefully at the D70 from Nikon. It is a pro level camera. Several pros I know leave their heavier D1x's, Fuji S2's and D2H's at home because the D70 is up to most of the tasks of pro use, as well as being much lighter than their heavier bodies. Sadly the 300D is not in this league at all. Therefore, if you are an amatuer without $10,000 worth of lenses, seriously look into the D70. If you are a pro canon user looking for another body...you don't need my advice ;-) Get the 10D or 20D.
