The EOS 1100D follows on from the 1000D as Canon's budget digital SLR aimed, like the Nikon D3100 , at those trading up from a compact camera for the first time.

Canon EOS 1100D: Overview

Affordable price; Good image quality; Easy to use

Build quality same as EOS 1000D; You might quickly outgrow it

A predictable update to a fine entry-level SLR – it might be short on exciting extras but its ability to take gorgeous photos is hard to fault.

"...last year, opting for the Canon 1100D, which I picked up as part of a deal in Curry's where I got the camera body, an 18-55mm lens, a 75-300mm lens, a carry case for the camera and lenses and an 8GB SD card all for £485.00. ~ What is an SLR camera? ~ SLR stands for single lens reflex.

captures sharp; impressive images; low price; great for beginners; light for an SLR

quite difficult to find your way around at first; a lot heavier than a compact

This is a great camera that delivers professional results when used by a novice.

Easy to use; lightweight and a joy to use

Additional lenses can be expensive

I use the 1100D for outside shotsmainly, occasional portrait pics for business. The basics are unshiftably in place - speed, basic settings, focus and flash options. But I can't help thinking I am missing out, partly due to my lack of expertise (my problem!

Durable; Great Picture Quality

Bulky; Lacks Intuitive Usability

I brought this for my wife as her first adventure in to photography ( and to leave my cameras alone)
to be honest it is a very good camera and i would recommend it to any first time user.. though you could shop around for a better price..

Easy To Use; Excellent In Low Light; Fast Shutter Speed; Good Battery Life; Great Resolution; Nice Features and Settings

Price

The Canon 1100D offers a good shooting experience for a great price, with enough features and functions to satisfy SLR beginners. Compared to the competition though, the 1100D falls behind the pack in terms of top-line specifications and overall build quality.

Comes in a range of colours; Bracketing; Great image quality on default settings

Can feel a little plastic-y compared to other entry-level cameras; Only a 2.7-inch LCD screen; No AF lock button; No external microphone input

After lot of cross checks i zeroed in on this product... canon.. brand speaks for itself..!! Price was a little tricky thing when i looked around for other options.. like showrooms in my city and other e-commerce portals.. but some had good deals on price but Flipkart was more reliable..

"This camera costs ~19k in ebay and many other sites.You are 24k and offer? Strange.You need to give better offers. This is above market price and above MRP mentioned in camera pack i guess Please correct"
