Canon EOS Digital Rebel XT Construction and Design
Stylish and Ultra-Compact
The Canon EOS Digital Rebel is one of the most compact digital SLRs around. By comparison, however, the EOS Digital Rebel XT camera is considerably smaller. From a distance, the XT is stylish and compact; in hand, it is delightful. Compared with its predecessor, the width of the XT is 15.5 mm smaller; the height is reduced by 4.8 mm and the thickness of the body is 8.4 mm less. The weight has been reduced by 2.5 ounces/70 grams The body alone weighs 17.1 ounces/490 grams With a battery, a CF card and the EF-S 18-55mm standard zoom lens, the camera weighs just 1.5 pounds/720 grams.
Lighweight Yet Durable
The body consists of a chassis made of stainless steel, and a mirror box made of high-strength engineering plastic. The mirror box, to which the lens mount and image sensor are attached, is fixed very securely to the chassis to obtain the same body strength as the EOS 20D. This helps prevent the flange focal distance from changing due to the static pressure of the attached lens.
 
As with the EOS Digital Rebel model, the EOS Digital Rebel XT camera's top, front and rear covers are made of special engineering plastic known for light weight, excellent strength and electromagnetic shielding: ABS resin, polycarbonate resin, and polycarbonate mixed with special conductive fibers.
Exterior Color Choice of Black or Silver
The Canon EOS Digital Rebel XT is offered in two kit configurations: with and without Canon's high-quality EF-S 18-55 mm f/3.5-5.6 zoom lens. The Rebel XT also offers a choice of colors: a stylish brushed silver patina or the sleek Canon matte-black finish.
