Using a Canon Rebel I'm am having such a hard time with my new Canon Rebel. I have been taking digital photos for about six years and finally was able to get the Camera I thought I wanted. I am really struggling with it. I have gotten a few nice shots but for the most part three out of about 100 are exposing the way I want them to. Shooting in automatic is a disaster. I usually use AV mode with my aperature at 5.6 (people). I'm thinking about trying to sell it and get the Canon 10 D. I see much nicer photos taken with that camera. I bought the Rebel based on the reviews I read about it an am very dissappointed. Any help is appreciated.

I wouldn't expect there to be a any difference in exposure between the Digital Rebel and the 10D. They use the same imaging sensor and exposure metering. Perhaps you are are used the level of sharpening/contrast/saturation that is done "in-camera" in digital point & shoots. DSLRs default to a much lower level of in-camera processing, leaving that for the user to do (with much greater control) in Photoshop or other post-processing editor. If you want .jpgs ready to display/email, then you can adjust the Processing Parameters (pp. 55-57 of the manual). See Canon's online Digital Learning Center, http://www.photoworkshop.com/canon/index.html, for more help. Especially the Digital Rebel Tutorials, and the "Getting the Most out of Your EOS - Tips and Techniques."

I just got the 300D last December, and when I first started I noticed that, when I downloaded the images they were much darker than I thought they were. The difficulty, I think, is that we all tend to rely on the LCD, whether we intend to or not. And the LCD isn't calibrated. I found that there are 2 things to do that can help: 1. Put the LCD brightness to minimum.
