Smart-Review Commentary: Canon’s entry level Rebel XSI has been a hit with consumers and is a best seller. It has received excellent consumer and professional reviews. This camera has many features that previously were only included on high end SLRs. The XSi also includes some of the most popular features such as the Ultrasonic Sensor cleaning system which removes dust from your sensor, and LiveView which allows you to use your LCD screen to compose your shot instead of the viewfinder. The XSi is our best top pick for DSLRs under $600. This SLR takes pictures only, as there is no movie mode. See the top picks Rebel T2i and EOS 7D for top rated SLRs with HD movie modes.
