Canon Digital Rebel XSi 12MP Digital SLR Camera with EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS Lens (Black)

Cheap Canon Digital Rebel XSi. Great Source for Canon Cameras. High Quality Cameras at Low Prices.Great camera, one of the best low(er)-end DSLRs on the market.

The build feels very good. The camera feels wonderfully light yet well built. I'm 6ft tall with average size hands, and the camera feels good in my hand. The battery grip, to me, defeats the purpose of having a small, light DSLR, so I opted for a Hakuba/Opteka grip (it's a plate that screws into the tripod socket that enables you to use the excellent Canon E1 hand strap with it) and I couldn't be happier. I'm not a fan of neck straps, so this works well for me (see the uploaded photo for the configuration).

Most of the menu buttons on the back feel different from the ones on the original Digital Rebel and the 30D; the XSi buttons feel more tactile and have a definite "click" to them when you press them. The exception are the Exposure Lock (*) and AF selector buttons, which have retained the deeper, softer feel of the older cameras. Just different, not better or worse, for me.

The LCD is now 3" with 230K pixels. The playback images look great, and probably because of the higher resolution of the sensor, there's a very slight delay when you zoom in to 10x while the image loads and displays properly. People coming from other cameras or brands might not even notice it--I only did so because of the difference between it and my two other Canon DSLRs (which have lower resolution sensors). The viewing angle of the LCD screen (how clearly you can see the screen from side and up and down) is excellent; you can still see the screen holding the camera almost straight up for an overhead shot (more on this later). I'd estimate the viewing angle is about 160-170 degrees both horizontally and vertically.

Wonderful digital camera!, This camera is impossible to beat at this price. I won't write a lengthy review, but, you can set this camera in fully automatic mode and hand it to a "point and shoot" person, and they will obtain fantastic results. For the amateur photographer, this has all of the bells and whistles, what I love is I can reset the camera rapidly for multiple shots of the same scene on very different settings. Married with a decent photo program on your computer, it is possible to achieve professional results.

Many reviews say, get this with the stabilization lens.... I wholeheartedly agree... the extra $100 is a bargain price for this lens... It is almost (and I do say almost) like having a tripod. I set the camera for 1/10th second exposures with no support, and obtained steady pictures with it, slower than this, and the stabilization did not fully correct for any unsteadiness.

We'd buy it again in a heartbeat, and I wish I could get one for everyone I know!! Best photos that I have ever taken and a joy to use! Connecting it to the computer and downloading photos takes a matter of seconds.

Get the largest SD card you can afford with it... We have a 2GB card with it, and it fills fairly rapidly. 1GB is far too small for this camera (primarily because you will take numerous shots with it, not because the pics take up a great deal of memory), I'm guessing 4GB would be near perfect (or a couple of 2GB cards, but one 4GB is safer, the cards are too easy to misplace).

Toro 1800 18 Inch 12 Amp Electric Curve Snow Thrower

Sunday, October 19, 2008 10:43

Toro 1800 18 inch 12 Amp Electric Curve Snow Thrower #38025

Toro 1800 18 inch 12 amp electric curve snow thrower #38025 Maintenance-Free Snow Thrower.List Price: $329.99 Price: $299.99 You Save: $30.00 & this item ships for FREE with Super Saver Shipping.

You only have to look at this 25 pound wonder to know its not a heavy duty snow blower. So don't think it is going to do the job of a huge gas powered rig. Having said that - I have a 50ft two car wide driveway. It flings 5 inches of snow off that driveway in 10 to 15 min. I love it. I cant wait for more snow. It should have no problem with a foot of snow. its like a high powered snow vacume

Remember when snow days meant snowball fights, building forts, and a day off from school? Now, they just mean having to shovel the driveway and walkway. Lucky for us, the Toro 1800 Power Curve snow thrower can make that job a lot less arduous and time-consuming. Powered by a 12 amp electric motor, the Power Curve can clear 4 inches of snow off a 50-by-20-foot driveway in 10 minutes flat. The thrower cuts to a depth of 10 inches and width of 18 inches per pass. A patented two-blade curved rotor scrapes the snow all the way to the pavement and throws it up to 30 feet. The chute rotates 160 degrees, too, for better snow control. Best of all, the Power Curve is lightweight, compact, and maneuverable. Startups are easy. Just squeeze the trigger on the control bar, then release it when you want to stop. A key lock helps prevent unauthorized use, so you don't have to worry about kids, or even the neighbor borrowing it without permission. With the Power Curve, snow removal is quick and easy, so you can spend your time on more important things, like having snowball fights. --Carl Thress

From the Manufacturer

Toro's 1800 Power Curve is lightweight and hardworking. The exclusive Power Curve design throws snow farther and cleans right to the pavement. The 1800 Power Curve is maintenance free - no gas and oil to mix - simply plug it in and go - starts everytime. Since it is lightweight this electric snowthrower is easier to maneuver than a gas unit.

        BUY HDTV Samsung LN52A650

        Saturday, October 11, 2008 1:29

        Samsung LN52A650 52-Inch 1080p 120Hz LCD HDTV with Red Touch of Color

        Superb black-level performance; highly accurate color; improved 120Hz de-judder video processing; fine standard-definition processing; broad selection of picture setup options; can display weather, news, and stock info onscreen; energy-efficient compared with most like-size LCDs. If you don't mind its red frame, the Samsung LN52A650 LCD TV will reward you with a massive feature set and excellent picture quality.

        In addition to the superior picture quality our TVs are known for, we reinvented our bezel and gave it a unique new look with our Touch of Color feature. New Infolink RSS Access lets you customize updates on your TV. Receive instant stock quotes, weather and news information while watching TV. And Auto Motion Plus 120Hz delivers smooth motion action scenes and virtually no motion blur. Satisfy your craving for the latest in HD technology with the SAMSUNG LN52A650 LCD TV.

        Samsung's LN52A650 dares to be different. In a world of me-too, glossy black flat-panel HDTVs, no few of which may bear the company's own logo, this 52-inch LCD is dressed in red. Like many radical design choices, you'll either love it or hate it, and we didn't love it. But before you write off this red TV, we recommend you check it out in person--the product shots here and elsewhere on the Web just don't capture the red tint of the frame properly. Aside from design, we found plenty to like about the higher-end LN52A650, and it produces arguably the best picture of any LCD TV we've tested so far, although it doesn't quite beat the quality of the best plasma.

        Design : Samsung's LNA650 series incorporates the company's Touch of Color design scheme. Instead of the standard glossy black frame, the LN52A650 sports dark-red accents that suffuse the entire frame, but are most prominent along the top and bottom edge and either side. Other eye-catching elements include a layer of transparent plastic, which is visible along the extreme edges on all sides, and Samsung's trademark shiny screen (more on that below). The Touch definitely creates a unique look, but call us traditionalists: we didn't really like it. The photos above just can't capture how red the Touch makes the frame appear, especially in bright rooms, and if red isn't your favorite color, you're out of luck--no other colors have been confirmed for this year, despite the company touting a veritable rainbow at CES. In its favor, the red frame didn't really detract from the color fidelity of the picture. Read the rest of this entry »

        Customer Reviews

        Bad sizing.... cute costume
        I bought the XS and had to have it tailored down! It was more like a S or M. It was very frustrating. The boot tops are also kind of a problem. They don't stay put. I was put together with pins and tape, but I did win "Best Costume" at my work party. It's very cute.

        Supergirl Costume Review
        I purchsed the Supergirl Deluxe Adult Costume, and it said to order a smaller size because they run big, and that was right because it fit right, but the costume had two holes in it already, they were small, but still for it being new it shouldn't have had holes in it. They are in a spot that you can't really sew. I couldn't send it back either because when I received it they sent a slip of paper in it that said there is no exchanges or returns so close to the costume season. I was pretty upset by that since I specifically looked for a site that didn't say "no returns or exchanges" in case the costume didn't fit.

        Wow5
        This item shipped to me in only 2 days! I ordered 2 sizes smaller than usual for myself and it fits great!
