Silly Question...

Julio · 23rd of November 2006 (Thu)

is the XTi a Rebel or EOS? Thanks.

SkipD · 23rd of November 2006 (Thu)

Yes

Actually, it is both. There are many more EOS family cameras than just the Rebel models. The XTi is the third in the Digital Rebel family.

Xti is an EOS 400D in europe.

StewartR · 23rd of November 2006 (Thu)

Europe: EOS 300D -> EOS 350D -> EOS 400D
North America: EOS Digital Rebel -> EOS Digital Rebel XT -> EOS Digital Rebel XTi
Japan: EOS Kiss Digital -> EOS Kiss Digital N -> EOS Kiss Digital X

Am I glad I live in Europe.

What about in the middle east?
we are living on another planet maybe, too bad

StewartR · 23rd of November 2006 (Thu)

No offense intended, Tareq. The only references I could find mentioned Europe, North America, and Japan. What about China? What about India? Only 40% of the world's population in those two countries... but if you know what these cameras are called in other countries, in the Middle East or elsewhere, then please feel free to share your knowledge.

we are going with European called.
even i buy some gears from USA online few months ago but still i can't get used to N.America names.

I would be willing to bet that India and the Middle East follow the European naming system.

Yeah, atleast the Canon India site has the European naming system. Cant find a single Middle East Canon site ??

doesn't matter of the middle east, they are seems not considered for most people in the West.

a lot of tech manufactures group Europe, Middle East and Africa together and refer to them as EMEA.

kevin_c · 24th of November 2006 (Fri)

I think it's only the US and Japan that call them something different... Could be wrong though...

cool_dude07 · 24th of November 2006 (Fri)

Don't forget us Canadians eh...we call them as the americans do (of course)

AdamJL · 24th of November 2006 (Fri)

Australia/NZ calls them by the Euro names.

You'd think they'd all follow the European naming scheme, so much easier to follow, and this way there is no confusion which model is the oldest, which one suceeds the last one, etc. Japans is probably the most confusing. How do I know X is worth more then N? Atleast with the North America naming they had the decenty to put a i at the end of the XT. Although if I was first looking at that I might think it's a downsized model or something.
