Re: Simple review of Canon Rebel XTi / 400D

The 400plus project extended the lifespan of this camera for me. The project adds features that don't exist on even the latest Canon DSLRs. Not only does it activates spot metering (disabled in the menu by Canon), but it adds multi-spot metering. The 400D did not have auto-ISO, but 400plus implements an auto-ISO feature that is more sophisticated than on any Canon camera. Feature listing here:

There is a comprehensive user manual here:

Any XTi/400D user that's not or wasn't aware of 400plus is missing/has missed out on lot of improvements added to the camera.
