Canon Upgrades Rebel

by Derek—2005.02.26 @ 0916

It looks like Canon upgraded its entry-level SLR camera, the Digital Rebel. The XT version has some improvements on the older model, including 8.0 Megapixel sensor (up from 6.3). This will likely mean a price drop for the 300D, although at $899, the XD is still not a bad price, factoring in all the improvements.
