Canon EOS 400D

Any opinions on this camera?

I was looking for a 18-55 mm lens to put on a Light Blaster and the camera was included (75 euro in total).

I do have another camera (Nikon/Fuji, sorry...), but am curious to test it out anyway!

My very first Canon!

Well, as you know, this is a very old camera.  But, I would check out the prices of the lens.  If you pay€20 more for the camera.  OK.  You have a camera for hiking or whatever. I have bought a camera for the lens and kept them both.

Re: Canon EOS 400D

Thanks, I guess the camera was around 20 euro and 55 for the lens (75 in total)

I know, Canon has moved on since then, but I consider it to be an almost free camera that happened to come along with the lens. I will try and find some use for it!

Just shoot it at very low ISO's for best results.
