Summary: Perfect Companion

Comment: I am always crazy about Minolta Cameras and lenses as they are THE BEST. Earlier I had a Minolta Freedom Zoom and I was looking for the SLR camera which is a dream for evry1 who loves photography. When I looked into XTSI, I felt that evrything I want in a SLR is there.And that too with a Silver Zoom lens.

Last long week end We all went to LA and believe me I shot 9 film rolls. Especially Fire works at disney land and Dolphin show at Sandiego were too good. (...)

It is a camera which is affordable but with excellant features. Just Dont MISS it.

Summary: Best Quality Photos Ever Taken!

Comment: I love this camera. It is easy to use, the photo quality is outstanding, and the telephoto lens is a Blessing for taking shots of wild animals. I bought this camera 2 months ago and have never been disappointed. I've also owned a canon rebel g, and a samsung 4000 SLR. But this camera is the best!

Summary: Crisp photos, lots of features!

Comment: I bought this camera about a year ago and LOVE it. I now have three lenses for it (just added a wide-angle) and the picture quality is still as sharp as day one.

If you are a novice/amateur, just turn it on and shoot away while letting the camera do all the work. But if you are a little more advanced, you can play with the settings for aperture, exposure, etc. as much as you want. This is THE BEST Minolta on the market, as far as I am concerned!

Summary: I Love my XTsi!

Comment: I bought this camera a year ago (from Wolf Camera in Charlotte). I love it! It is easy to use and produces sharp, clear photos. I have to turn off the autofocus sometimes, but I think that would be true of any autofocus camera. Cameras aren't as smart as the human eye. I like how I can have complete control over the aperture and shutter speed (as well as focus), or I can let the camera control any or all of these functions. There are lots of other configurable features as well. I initially bought a 28-105 Sigma lens and just added a 70-300. I'm cooking with gas now! This is a pretty good price.

Summary: stunning

Comment: i am a theatre lighting designer, and due to the nature of my work i need a camera that can do the impossible (low light levels, and low shutter speeds are the norm in my line of work). i had researched cameras for quite some time before buying this one two year ago and i have found its performance to be more than adequate. i do not use the autofocus functions, as most any camera will have trouble autofocusing in low light, but the metering is better than any other camera that i have seen. the other function that made me fall in love with the camera was the one touch fully manual function, no need to focus and no need to set aperture and shutter speed (this way i could hand it to someone who has never shot before and still know that the shot will be as crisp and clear as that of a seasoned photographer. this camera is perhaps the most important tool/toy that i have ever bought.
