Canon EOS Rebel XT DSLR Camera Body (Silver)

Canon EOS Digital Rebel XT DSLR Camera Body
Historic Entry-Level DSLR Core – 8.0MP APS-C CMOS Sensor, DIGIC II Processing & Vast EF/EF-S Lens Compatibility (Well-Used Condition / Battery & Charger Included / Grip Peeling & Port Cover Missing)
The Canon EOS Digital Rebel XT (marketed as the EOS 350D in Europe and the EOS Kiss Digital N in Japan) is a highly historic, milestone entry-level digital SLR camera built around an 8.0-megapixel APS-C format CMOS sensor. Released as the direct successor to the original, best-selling Digital Rebel, the XT introduced massive operational upgrades for its era, including a faster DIGIC II image processor, near-instantaneous startup times, and independent control over autofocus and metering modes. Today, it remains a highly sought-after, incredibly budget-friendly option for photography students, vintage digital gear collectors, and retro-tech enthusiasts looking to learn manual exposure principles on a dedicated, lightweight SLR chassis.

Behind its compact, portable footprint, the Rebel XT offers robust photographic control. It features a 7-point phase-detection autofocus array, a continuous shooting speed of 3 fps, and advanced E-TTL II flash metering for highly accurate exposures when paired with compatible Speedlights. Offering full manual exposure controls alongside a diverse selection of automated scene modes, this body accepts Canon’s entire legendary catalog of native EF and EF-S lenses, allowing you to experiment with everything from ultra-wide zooms to bright portrait primes.

This camera body is being offered in well-used cosmetic condition. It comes complete with a rechargeable battery and a dedicated wall charger. Please carefully review the condition notes regarding the peeling handgrip and missing side port cover before purchasing.

Hardware Inventory & Condition Diagnostics
CRITICAL BUYING NOTICE: This camera body exhibits clear, prominent signs of a heavy, active field life and is being priced accordingly. Please read the specific wear disclosures below:

Functional State: FULLY OPERATIONAL. The camera powers on instantly, writes to CompactFlash cards without error, triggers the shutter reliably across all speeds, operates the built-in flash, and autofocuses and meters accurately.

Cosmetic Presentation: WELL-USED CONDITION. The external polycarbonate body displays standard surface scuffs, scratches, and typical rub wear from extensive handling.

Specific Mechanical & Aesthetic Defects:

Peeling Handgrip: The textured rubberized coating on the handgrip has begun to peel, show stickiness, and degrade due to age and heavy use.
