I got an e-mail asking for details about Canon’s complete camera lineup. Compiled from a number of different websites, I think I’ve got a pretty good up-to-date list. Canon’s lineup is constantly being revised, so when new models are released, older models are discontinued. Though you can buy just about any one of these camera’s used online at a cheap price, the older models are becoming increasingly harder to find, as well as just plain impractical. Below, bolded entries indicate that the item is in Canon’s active lineup.
Entry Level:
- August 2003: Rebel (EOS 300D)
- February 2005: Rebel XT (EOS 350D)
- August 2006: Rebel XTi (EOS 400D)
- January 2008: Rebel XSi (EOS 450D)
- June 2008: Rebel XS (EOS 1000D)

As you may have already noticed, this list isn’t necessarily chronological. I listed them in order of my personal evaluation of performance capabilities.
