New Canon Rebel XT, 25% smaller, 10% lighter

Feb 17, 2005

Looks like news of the new Canon Rebel XT has been released a little early.

Main Changes:
25% smaller
10% lighter
8MP CMOS sensor
3 frames per second
14-frame buffer
RAW + JPEG
User Selectable metering modes
User Selectable AF modes (One Shot, AI SERVO and AI Focus)
CF Write speed increased 3.5 times
Mirror lockup
FEC
2nd Curtain Flash
USB 2.0 Hi-Speed
Monochrome mode
Available in both Black and Silver.

Looks like Canon are trying to target all of the opposition’s main features with this camera.
