I'm in a pickle somewhat. I mentioned to my bride a few weeks ago that "someday" I think I'd like to have a really nice camera. I know nothing about quality cameras or how to use one, I've had a Canon Powershot G3 for 7 years and it takes great pictures "to me" anyway. Tomorrow is our 26th anniversary and this mornin when I woke up there was a sack on the table that contained a Canon EOS Rebel XS (1000 D) ,,,, EF - S 18-55 IS ???????? After reading on here, I was leaning toward a Nikon, same model and lense several of you have mentioned to be fairly easy to operate. Now I don't know what to do, I believe she payed about $500 for this camera. She understands if I decide to return it, after 26 yrs it ain't gonna cause a stink.
Any of ya'll have this camera and whether you do or do not, have any suggestions??
