What's the XT stand for???

Quick question... What is the difference between the Digital Rebel and the Digital Rebel XT?

robertwgross · 3rd of December 2005 (Sat)

The Digital Rebel, a.k.a. Canon 300D, came out a couple of years ago, and it is a 6 megapixel camera. The Digital Rebel XT, a.k.a. Canon 350D, came out this year, and it has 8 megapixels. There are also smaller, more subtle differences.

The Body size and weight are also significant changes, the XT being a smaller lighter model as well as packing more punch and having a few extra functions built in... a full review, which makes comparisons to the Earlier model can be found here...

I know my camera hasn't grow'd up yet. But its a great camera. I love my XT. Yes, if I had the money I would have the 5D. But I don't.

Maybe its like the Ford XT wait maybe that's XLT.

Let's not forget the extra features the XT has, like selectable AF/metering modes, etc...

XT=X'mas Tree, i.e. for display only. Just j/k.

XTreme! lol just cuz everything seems to be extreme to seem cool (more of a marketing trend in the past couple of years than it is now, but still prevalent)
