Canon Rebel XSi

Circuit City has the Canon Rebel XSi body with an 18-55mm wide-range lens for $729.97. Get the Rebel XSi starter kit (includes Rebel gadget bag, UV filter, battery pack) and SanDisk 4GB Ultra II SDHC memory card for free with purchase.

OUR TAKE: "...the XSi will unquestionably win converts to Canon with its (still) excellent AF system, super-smooth CMOS sensor with very impressive high ISO performance, and (for some users, at least) reasonably functional live view system." (DCR Review, 5/1/08)
