Overview & Features top

The gateway to your creativity.

10.1 Megapixel CMOS sensor

A 10.1 Megapixel CMOS sensor captures enough detail to make A4-size prints, even when cropping your image. Canon’s CMOS sensor technology also ensures crisp, sharp images even in low-light conditions.

Up to 3 frames per second

For dramatic mid-action shots, the EOS 1000D allows continuous shooting of large JPEG images at speeds of up to 3 frames per second, until the memory card is full. With a 2GB card, this lets you shoot up to 514 images without a pause.

7-point wide-area AF

A wide-area Auto Focus system uses 7 separate focusing points to lock onto subjects fast. The central focus point enables focusing even under low-light or low-contrast conditions.

EOS Integrated Cleaning System

Canon’s built-in dust prevention system guards images against the effects of dust in three ways: reducing dust generated inside the camera, shaking dust from the sensor each time the camera is turned on or off, and mapping stubborn dust spots for removal with the provided Digital Photo Professional software.

2.5" LCD with Live View mode

In Live View mode, use the bright 2.5” LCD to frame and take shots from awkward angles. During playback, the LCD provides detailed review of shots, and features a wide viewing angle for easy sharing with friends.

Large viewfinder

A large, bright viewfinder allows framing of subjects even in the brightest conditions.

DIGIC III processing

Canon’s cutting-edge DIGIC III processor – as used in professional EOS models - delivers rapid operation, accurate colour reproduction, fast start-up times, and low power consumption.

SD/SDHC memory card compatible

Shooting to the popular SD/SDHC memory card formats, the EOS 1000D is ideal for those who already own SD-compatible devices.

Total image control

Take control over the look and feel of your images with easy to use Picture Style presets. Contrast, sharpness and saturation can be customized in-camera or with Canon’s comprehensive software suite, supplied with the EOS 1000D.

Compact, ultra-lightweight body

The smallest and lightest Digital EOS model yet, the EOS 1000D weighs just 450g - and is ergonomically designed for comfortable handling.

EF lenses and accessories

The EOS 1000D is compatible with the complete range of EF/EF-S lenses, Speedlite EX flash units and EOS system accessories.

Canon EOS 1000D
Like other cameras in its class, the Rebel XS' Live View created a four-second shot-to-shot lag, including a pause as the screen goes dark. Without Live View, there was virtually no shutter lag. Read more ...
PROSVery good image quality, Fast focusing and shot-to-shot speeds, Automatic sensor-cleaning system, Intuitive interface

On-screen focusing The EOS 1000D uses the same on-screen focusing system as the 450D. It offers two ways to focus an image: you can either deactivate the Live View feature for as long as it takes to focus the camera manually, or you can look for the best contrast in pictures you take. Read more ...
PROSGood noise control up to 1600 ISO, Simple menus, Small and light, Quality lens included, Range of advanced functions
CONSNarrow viewfinder, Very slow autofocus in Live View mode, Flimsy construction, Slow bursts with RAW images, Currently overpriced

I already owned a Canon EOS450D camera with 2 standard (18-55mm) lenses plus two other longer telephotos. Why buy another lower spec. camera? Easy, times without number I've found that I've the "wrong" lens fitted for that once in a lifetime shot and of course by the time I've swapped the moment has... Read more ...

Canon EOS 1000D
When Canon launched the EOS 300D back in 2003 it was widely regarded as the first affordable digital SLR and secured Canon a seemingly indomitable number-one spot in the market. Since then the 'small' Canon has gone through three further iterations and the current model - the EOS 450D - offers a... Read more ...

I've had a canon 1000D for three years, and I love it! I received it as a birthday gift, and at the time knew nothing at all about photography. The camera was easy to use pretty much straight away and is perfect for amateurs. Read more ...
