We can't recommend the 500D with its kit lens, but with another lens it should be more appealing. However, nothing in Canon's range directly compares with the 18-105mm lens bundled with Nikon's D90. This marginally superior camera and vastly superior lens are worth the extra £100.

Canon's DSLR range continues to go from strength to strength with this considerably enhanced upgrade of the EOS 450D, which manages to keep almost all of the previous physical features while improving the processor and the ISO range and adding a new Full HD video facility.

The Canon Rebel T1i is both a great camera for the photographer looking to move up from compacts and advanced amateurs who want total control and excellent image quality. Most Canon Rebel generations only slightly evolve in terms of features – and mostly in subtle areas like resolution and more automatic control.

the EOS 500D is a very good camera indeed, but unless you really want video, opting for the EOS 450D will save you around £200. On performance, the EOS 500D scores well, but on value for money, it’s not so great.

Overall, Canon’s Rebel T1i is a feature-packed DSLR that offers a number of improvements over its predecessor, the best-selling Rebel XSi. The Rebel T1i also inherits a number of features from Canon's higher-end models, but packages them into a smaller, lighter and more affordable form factor. In fact, we like this camera so much, we're giving it our coveted Editor's Choice award for product excellence.

The Canon EOS 500D is Canon's best Rebel yet. If you need a faster burst rate, or don't like the button-centered interface, or the camera is too small for your hands, then you'll also want to look at the EOS 50D, the next camera up in Canon's line. (Note that you won't get video shooting with that camera.) If you're looking for an SLR under £1,000 that takes great images and movies, then the Canon EOS 500D is an excellent choice.

With its picture settings and the auto settings, the Rebel is suitable for a first-time SLR user. Given an adequate time investment, a beginner could use this camera on his first day and gradually add to his knowledge while learning the cameras ins-and-outs. However, the sheer number of functions, menu options, and buttons may be intimidating to some new users.

The Canon EOS Rebel T1i helps redefine the D-SLR landscape by offering prosumer features, performance, and image quality for less than $1,000.

oise control is excellent on the EOS 500D as is colour rendition and its ability to cope with different styles of photography. That latter point is important in a lower end camera as it's likely to be bought by all sorts of photographers who may or may not have developed a style or favourite genre.

TechRadar UK‘s review Edit Like Unlike

Canon EOS 500D takes fight to Nikon with 15MP, full-HD 1080p video recording and astronomical ISO levels. The 500D sits between the 450D and 40D SLRs, but comes with so many great new features, it threatens to cancel them out. The camera is a little pricy if HD video doesn't appeal.

Capable of great results, but a wallet-draining way of getting HD video on a DSLR.

Shutterbug‘s review Edit Like Unlike

True, the price tag is a bit higher than recent Rebel models, but if going to a higher megapixel count and especially having HD video is what you had in mind, the Rebel T1i will fill the bill. Then again, the price tag is lower than some advanced amateur models we’ve seen of late, and the features and output of the Rebel T1i could be seen as competing in that arena as well.

The Imaging Resource‘s review Edit Like Unlike

Our experience with the Canon T1i was excellent, and shows that Canon is taking its digital SLR challengers quite seriously. Indeed, our test results show that the Canon T1i is one of the best values on the market, offering Canon 50D quality in a significantly less expensive package. Though the Canon T1i doesn't challenge the Nikon D90 on all fronts, it does take it on in the still resolution and movie mode department.

While not a pro model, the Canon EOS Rebel T1i / 500D's image quality is very pro-grade. And for the price, this image quality is a bargain. I see no reason to expect the T1i to vary from the sales path taken by the best-selling XSi. There will be many family memories richly preserved by the T1i / 500D.

The Canon EOS 500D is a worthy successor to the popular 450D, and adds a number of useful features, including the must-have HD video recording, a more powerful sensor and a nice new monitor. Build quality, handling and performance are as good as ever, and image quality is at least equal to anything in its class. With a good combination of versatility and quality at a decent price it looks like another best-seller.

In general use, the Canon EOS 500D is an excellent point and shoot DSLR, for those who want an uncomplicated camera that offers greater potential than compact models. The Creative Auto may convince you to click that mode dial, but will perhaps be lost on more experienced users. Yes, you can capture crisp and detailed high-definition video, but it comes with a list of limitations.

We are very pleased with Canon's Latest Digital Rebel. The T1i offers some very powerful features that have been handed down from its big brothers, the Canon EOS 50D and EOS 5D Mark II. This camera possesses a high degree of appeal with loads of exposure options, and class leading ISO capabilities, performance, and image quality.

It should not come as a surprise; the Canon EOS 500D will certainly offer you a positive shooting experience. The Canon 500D is backed up by a wealth of experience, thanks to the many generations that came before it, at which various innovative image solutions have passed by. It all sounds a bit boring, and from a tester's viewpoint it may be just that, but for the consumer, the Canon EOS 500D is an extremely full digital SLR camera providing many options to the amateur as well as the enhanced photographer.

Canon’s EOS 500D / Rebel T1i is a feature-packed DSLR which boasts a wide variety of improvements over its predecessor, the best-selling EOS 450D / Rebel XSi. Like many new DSLRs, the 500D / T1i inherits a number of features from a higher-end model in the range, but packages them into a smaller lighter and more affordable form factor with at least one key advantage.

PhotographyBLOG‘s review Edit Like Unlike

With the addition of full HD video, a greatly-expanded ISO range and a fantastically high-res LCD screen, the new Canon EOS 500D / Digital Rebel T1i has graduated to the ranks of mid-range, prosumer DSLR. Add an increased price-tag of $799.99 / £869.99, and this can no longer be considered an entry-level model, with a feature set and cost that in many ways equals and even surpasses the higher-in-the-range EOS 50D model. The 500D's handling certainly isn't as good, with a body that's still a little too small for average to large-sized hands, but for many people the inclusion of full HD video will more than compensate for that.

A solid, slightly better-than-basic dSLR, the Canon EOS Rebel T1i delivers photo quality and performance that adequately compensates for most of its annoyances.
