Rebel XT or Cannon Kiss

I started my professional work with this Camera, and now I own two of them. The make excellent backup Cameras.

Pros: Simple to use, lightweight, and very inexpensive compared to the competition. I got a used black one for $500 a year ago, but today you can probably find them even cheaper. Great warm skin tones when photographing people.

Cons: From my experience, the on-board flash is very faulty. During my trip to Japan, mine broke and refused to open. Of course, all the other functions still worked fine, and I was still able to take any kind of picture but just without the flash.

Technique: Outdoors, I mostly rely on the auto matic setting (green square). In the studio, I use the manual setting.
