Canon EOS Rebel 2000 Body Only 35mm Film Camera

Pros: Light-weight; simple, straight forward and easy to use
Cons: No PC socket and too plastic looking

Canon's EOS Rebel lines began in 1990 with the introduction of the EOS Rebel line of auto focus cameras. The EOS Rebel II, S, SII and Date models soon followed. In 1995, Canon redesigned the EOS Rebel body to accommodate small hands by introducing the...

Pros: Pictures are so good they make someone with no photography experience look like a pro; easy to use; light weight; lots of features
Cons: Expensive. Not the type of camera you would hand to a stranger on the street and ask "Can you take a picture of me in front of this fountain?"

When I applied for a job as a newspaper reporter two years ago at a small, but highly regarded, weekly paper, I had all the job requirements except one: photography skills. Much to my pleasure, though, the editors liked my written work and decided to...

Pros: lightweight, easy to use, versatile, perfect for novices
Cons: occasional delayed shooting..but I think that is the photographers defect not the cameras

Ever since all the "cool kids" in high school walked around with their 35m cameras around their neck taking pictures for the yearbook I have lusted for a "real" camera.

I had to suffice with my 110 in Brady Bunch orange for...

Pros: Price, features, availability of support from other users, easy to upgrade
Cons: Somewhat cheaply made, difficulties with autofocus

The Canon EOS Rebel 2000 is a great beginner SLR at a great price. I purchased this camera in Aug. 2002 along with the Canon 28-80/f3.5-5.6 lens in anticipation of taking a photography class, which I finish up this week. I had no SLR experience before...

Pros: Easy for inexperienced photographers to take a great picture.
Cons: Need battery pack to get long life and vertical grip.

We were expecting our second baby and were tired of blurry pictures with bad color that we got with our Advantix camera. So we decided to try a "real" camera that we could maybe figure out. After my husband did MANY MANY hours of internet research, we...

Pros: easy to use, manual and automatic modes, good price, very light
Cons: plastic casing feels cheap

I had been languishing in the realm of point-and-shoot cameras for a long time, wanting to move up to an SLR and learn more about photography but worried I'd end up paying a ton of money for a camera I'd barely know how to use. The Rebel 2000 came up...

Pros: Very great price, has all the basics you need, Canon quality
Cons: Lens heavy, flash is lackluster

The Rebel 2000 is about the best you can get for what you pay for. In purchasing it I compared it to the ELAN II, and IIe. However, I felt that the extra $150 (give or take) for the Elan II wouldn't be worth it. I've been shooting photos for a while now,...

Pros: Easy to use, great pictures
Cons: Feels cheap, complicated exposure controls

Canon has seemingly always been running second to other camera makers. First, in the 1930's and 40's they were playing catch-up to Leica, and later running behind Nikon. It's too bad, because Canon has always made a quality product, for less money than...

Pros: Easy to use, lightweight, compact, well priced.
Cons: As is the style these days: too much plastic.

As the manager of a camera sales and service store I can assure you that the Canon Rebel series have been the best selling cameras we have ever stocked. Very user friendly, well designed, compact and lightweight the Rebels are made with the...

Pros: Automatic Features, Manual Features, Ease-of-Use, Weight, Name Brand, Quality, Cost, Availability of extras
Cons: People who travel a lot might want a more compact camera with fewer features, but this camera offers more features in a slightly larger format.

WOW
The Canon EOS Rebel 2000 is a great camera for almost anyone including beginning users, people who want to learn to take manual photos, people on a budget, sports fans, vacationers, families, photographers and even the serious...

Pros: Light, portable, Easy to use interface, built in flash
Cons: Too long to focus, not too durable, loud

This is a good camera for the price that I paid. I went out to buy a camera for a good price and ran into 2 that were affordable and seemed to have a long feature list. The Nikon N60 and the Canon Rebel 2000. I held them both and even though the Canon...

Pros: great price, all the features, nice look
Cons: minor: slow(er) frame rate, lens mount

Just to clarify, I do not own the Rebel 2000 with a Canon lens, but instead I have Tamron 28-80 and 100-300 mm lenses. Over the last two years, I delved into the realm of 35mm photography and found that I wanted an SLR(Single Lens Reflex). If you...

Pros: Great camera, lots of features
Cons: No cable release and no spot meter

I’m getting really irritated at all those people out there that keep promoting the Rebel 2000 as a “great beginner or amateur camera.” Look at the specs people! This is a featured packed, technologically advanced camera suitable for the newest of...

Pros: It's only as complicated as you make it! Light weight, takes technically good pictures
Cons: Light weight, no spot metering.

About three years ago, I found an old Minolta X-7 camera and some lenses hiding in a drawer in our extra bedroom. I instantly fell in love with the SLR type of camera and put aside my nice, shiny point n' shoot that I had gotten for my birthday. I shot...

Pros: lightweight, easy to learn, great photos
Cons: not a true "point and shoot", must be committed for the price!

I ventured into the film industry, I guess you could say, since I looked around for quite a while to find the best camera for me. Thinking that perhaps I could make a hobby out of it, I figured I'd try the SLR cameras that I see so many of the...
