Thank you for purchasing a Canon product.
The EOS DIGITAL REBEL XS/EOS 1000D is a digital single-lens reflex camera with a 10.10-megapixel image sensor. The camera provides many features such as high-speed, 7-point autofocus to quickly focus moving subjects, Picture Styles to expand your photographic expression, diverse shooting modes from Full Auto to Creative modes, and Live View shooting. It also incorporates the EOS Integrated Cleaning System to eliminate dust spots on images and the Self Cleaning Sensor Unit to shake off dust on the sensor.
Take a Few Test Shots to Familiarize Yourself with the Camera
With a digital camera, you can immediately view the image you have captured. While reading this manual, take a few test shots and see how they come out. You can then better understand the camera.

After shooting, playback and check whether the image has been properly recorded. If the camera or memory card is faulty and the images cannot be recorded or downloaded to the personal computer, Canon cannot be held liable for any loss or inconvenience caused.
