Canon EOS 450D (EOS Digital Rebel XSi / EOS Kiss X2) review

Very good value for money. It's a camera to take in the backpack whenever you require an optimum combination of versatility and lightweght. I bought it with the kit lens, 18-55 IS, which, in spite of its cheap mechanical construction, is optically good (even more so considering its price).
The camera is a pleasure to use, even with an L-series lens like the 70-200 F/4 L. The images I obtained have never disappointed me, except in case of obvious mistakes which every photographer makes from time to time.
I also have an EOS 50D, but, whenever I want to travel light, I take the 450D.
I would recommend this camera wholeheartedly.

Problems:

None, considering the class of the camera and its selling price.
