Canon's position at the entry level DSLR market has not been like the firm hold they have on the top end but that does not mean they are willing to leave it at that. The new Canon EOS 1000D is a sign that Canon means business and we found it to be an excellent choice for any budding photographer who wants to follow the Canon EOS system.
Look and Feel
The layout is identical to the Canon EOS 450D with the only obvious difference being the smaller LCD (2.5 inch on the 1000D against 3 inch on the 450D), the missing eye-start auto-focus and the simpler grip - this includes the missing thumb grip near the LCD. With the new grip more simple and smooth, it provides adequate hold without giving you too plastic a feel. While some may prefer the more weather resistant grip of the 450D, many of the ladies from the office preferred the smoothness of the new grip.
