Thank you for using Spoofee.com
XTi is for body only - No lens is included. The XT does include the lens.
Got my wife the XT with the lens last month for $670 shipped. I guess prices do drop towards the holidays.... This XTi is a slightly better camera, but no lens included.
They also have the silver XTi with lens for $688 after the 15% and 10% off.
No lens on the XT either.."(Body Only/No Lens Included)"
And be prepared to wait for a while to get your camera from Dell. I ordered my Nikon D50 from Dell and it was backordered and took a month or more to be delivered.
Yeah, it took 2 weeks to receive my XTi when it said ships in 24 hours.
The XTi is well well the price. I only waited about one week to receive my camera.
Since I have own Canon SLR cameras before, I just used one of my old lens and it worked like a charm. If you really want a good camera, choose the Canon XTi. You won't regret it. This is just one man's opinion that have been taking pictures for over 30 years.
I have some older Canon lenses I was using on a 35mm camera. they will work on these digital SLR cameras, correct?
Yes, the 35 mm Canon lenses will work on these digital cameras but note that the sensing unit is no 35 mm x 24 mm like the film cameras. Only the 5D and 1D have this large of a sensing unit. The XTi has a 22.2 mm x 14.8 mm sensor. So that means your old lenses have a 1.6 times effect on the zoom and do not use all of the lenses light gathering capability.
Personally, I buy the EF lenses instead of the EF-S (digitial) lenses because I would like to get a 5D in the future.
