My first SLR was the Canon EOS Rebel 2000. This took great film shots. My problem was getting the films developed. I decided to move to a DSLR. After long analysis, I chose the EOS 350D. I bought a bundle that had the battery grip (for extra battery charge and for taking vertical shots). This helped make the camera more substantial and easier to grip. I had the standard lens and a 55 to 200 telephoto. These served me quite well.
This camera takes great photo's and with the ability to take 1,000's of shots at no extra charge has helped me learn the art of photography.
I have no problems using this camera, and have now bought the Canon EF 28-300 f/3.5-5.6L IS USM "L" series lens and the Speedlite 580 EX II flash. This might sound extreme for a low end camera, but the camera takes great shots that have been recognised by professional photographers. I use this setup for sports, landscape, portrait & function photography.
I got the lens & flash with the forsight of getting the EOS 5D Mark II next year (when I can afford it), but I will keep the 350D as a great backup.
Problems:
No problems to date. This is a great Beginner - Semi-Pro DSLR.
