Digital Rebel series (XT, Xti) ? Are EOS series designed for
professionals?

Thanks for info.


On the Canon Digital, the shorter the number, the more Pro the
camera...

1D, 5D Professional

10D, 20D, 30D Pro-Consumer

300D, 350D, 400D Consumer

The 300D, 350D, and 400D is the "other" name for the Digital Rebel,
Rebel XT, and Rebel XTi


Also, ALL of the above are EOS series. "EOS", IIRC, actually refers to
the lensmount design used in all of their autofocus SLRs, film or digital.
