My grandpa died in 2017, he had this camera. My mom borrowed it around 7 months before he died. My mom eventually lost interest photography and put it somewhere in a closet. 8 years later I found the camera, it still had old photos on it. Photos of my family, my divorced parents still togheter and much more. I just started shooting photos on it, it's not great but I am really happy with my first camera.

These old cameras generate far better photos than modern day gimmicky smartphones.

I just bought this camera second hand yesterday- its my first ever camera and I am so excited to try it out!!! This video made me look forward to it even more :)

I think I accidentally said seven years in the video. Between the Rebel XT/350D and the first Canon DSLR that could shoot video. Not sure where I got that number from. But it's a little sooner than 7 years. Sorry about that "speako"

Someone just gifted me this camera today and I am so loving it. I have to find a battery charger for it though. Still I am so grateful! ❤❤❤

i just got this camera gifted to me, so i was curious to see how it shoots. but i was absolutely encapsulated by this video and the production. after a while i forgot what i was here for and was simply enjoying the video. you’re definitely received a new subscriber!

Shots from mine ended up on the cover , and centre spread of a fishing magazine . I still have several 100cm prints on my walls from this camera. It was a very capable and rugged little camera.

My 350D has been my street camera for the last few years. After I’d used it to transition from film it went into the back of the cupboard. During Covid I did a review of my kit. Lots of surplus stuff sold but I couldn’t let go of the 350D. It’s quite petite with, say, a 28mm prime. Way better than using a phone. The LCD screen gives enough information so, if you want to kick the habit of checking each shot, just tape over the image screen.

this is the camera I use every day, even for photoshoots with friends and family. pictures look great. It was my dads camera

This was the first dslr to be under $1,000 new. I remember i saved my money to buy it. Its still on my shelf.

it's my first camera as well, and i bought it in a second-hand store several years ago, way back when i studied overseas i do enjoy taking photos with it before i notice there were tiny spots that ruin my photos, i then go to the smartphone photos recently, I've joined a photographer class, and they told me what we use in the class is something entry-level (a nikon d3200 if i was correct), however it is still way advanced then the eos 350d i put my 350d somewhere and was giving up finding it, but it was found and i still loves it despite of all of its flaws: tiny taints, old version, low pixels till i read some of your comments, i think it was all about our relationships, our memories and precious emotions

The fact that the auto focus isn't that great and the overall technology is pretty much outdated encourages you to go fully manual and take your time with every photo. Which in addition of it's sensor and the mirror's sound, it really makes it feel like a film camera I've only had this camera for like 3 weeks now and I absolutely love it However, either the usb port or the usb cable of the camera is broken and my PC won't read it's memory, I'll have to get some CF to USB adapter to be sure

I have been taking pictures with my phone for a very long time, I wanted to purchase an actual camera to take a step further but couldn’t decide which one to start with, since it can be expensive. My dad just gave me his old Canon 350D to start, I can’t wait to start ! Your lovely video and the results just made me fall in love with it I’m so hype ! Thank you so much

SORRY I MISSED THIS VIDEO---These older dslrs are awesome esp for everyday and even slower shots..found the photos came out very awesome...keep up tha awesome content thomas

Gosh, my first camera was the canon 1000d. I took that camera to Namibia, river rafting, hiking everything it survived abuse!!!! I then bought the 550d, like that even more. After many years i am now the owner of a few systems and pro bodies at that, the funny thing is that I baby my :weather resistant " bodies way more than i ever did these entry level camera. Its bonkers but honestly you have way more fun with a cheap camera that is replaceable than expensive gear you are to scared to take on adventure with

i randomly got really interested in photography and i found this exact camera model that my parents got before i was even born. it’s the only camera i own but i personally think it takes pretty good photos

If you know what you're doing, this old DSLR is still very capable. The 8 MP sensor is plenty enough if you publish only on social media. And the colors are wonderful.

I've been somewhat fascinated by this era of cameras as well, but finding the right batteries and memory cards can get expensive and I haven't found the right one yet.

I also took my DSLR "out of the box" recently, after more than 5 years collecting dust. Other than a broken focus cable on the macro lens, everything works perfectly. Thank you for sharing these.

I bought this 2 years ago used for 150 Malaysian Ringgit and i never regret it because i always love old dslr and digital camera. I use it as portrait camera. It almost feel like a ccd camera and same vibe like my Sony A200. Its always fun to play with old camera and boy it is never end of fun.

Just got gifted this camera and was trying to find a good tutorial- think I've just found my new comfort channel as well!

I believe the first Canon DSLR that could shoot video was the 5D mk II - all my filmmaking friends wanted one!

I still shoot on a 350D that I picked up from a charity shop for £20. I use it when I'm going to take shots in an area that I don't feel is completely safe for me to take my more expensive cameras, and to be honest, I've taken some of my personal favourite shots on it. Great thing about it is that it uses the same mount as modern Canon DSLRs, so I can use all of my lenses on it, and I'm not stuck with the included kit lens.

I have two of these. Both were bought off Ebay just to get a certain lens, tripod, etc. for use on newer Rebel cameras. Neat old things and simple. Only reason I don't keep them charged for use is those old data cards. The ones I got are so low capacity and buying a bigger one new or even used, is more than the camera is worth. I have six or seven old DSLRs that use those, but only a few data cards, so they collect dust now a days.

My dad gave me his 350D back in 2014 which made me get into photography. I had a kit lens and nifty fifty. It took me a while for me to learn the basics until I bought my first camera, the Sony a7s. When i got my mirrorless camera i found it easier to understand aperture, shutter etc. Even until today I still use my 350D paired with Canon EF 35mm f2. The look on the photos turn out really well compared the modern cameras.

I have Kiss N i bought online 3 days ago that model also release in 2005 . 2nd hand camera from store in Japan .. no scratch looks brand new but no Cf included so i ORDERED it .. the quality is soo good for 21 yrs old camera

I love colors from this CMOS, I just bought one again after many years with the original grip for the equivalent of $35, and the image with the Sigma 50-150 and Canon 50 is nice

I am thinking of buying this camera. This video helped me a lot. Thanks! I subscribed :)

Been waiting for this video! Indeed, limitations are very fun to play with! Everyone is very good at cameras these days and it’s a matter of exploration now, given the availability of tech. ❤

We live in a golden era of cheap photography!! At least for hobbyists After try some mirrorless (Sony APSC, Canon M, Nikon Z50 that i still have), I was not able to choose a mirrorless system 100%. So I decided to wait for the market to settle a pair of years and buy old DSLRs, from Canon and Nikon. The overall experience is different and the picture rendition is different too. I buy the cheapest possible ones, preferably small and that use SD, SDHC or SDXC, no CF for now. I have the Nikon D60 with Yongnuo 85 1.8 and 40 2.8; a Canon Rebel XS and a Canon 77D, with 50 1.8 stm and 28-135 with some fungus that i need to clean. In both the AF is surprisingly fast, i stop down the lenses a bit to have enough room for non critical focus. Everything works, except for the missing eyecups, worn out rubber, etc. For me has been a relief to go for the old camera route, simple, cheap, funny. And i even can use my old manual lenses with focus confirmation!!!

Thomas, nice to see, that you have so much fun with this old guy. I love these old cameras. Together with your picturestyles it would be amazing. The eos 400d is the first with a dedicated button for them.

Been an advocate for all these forgotten cameras. For certain work and of course pleasure these cameras can be great for sharing online. I have had many people asking me what camera took that picture, when they find out, they don't believe it. Using cameras with CCD sensors make colours pop. The lowest mp I go is around 5. 5 up to 16 is a great range and there are so many cameras out there. Whether it is a DSLR or a point and shoot they force you to slow down and maybe struggle a bit, but the reward is great! Thanks for sharing!

Thank you for the video

With lights room nothing is obsolete

My rubber inputs protection is missing too lol

Una bella macchina.

I've been wanting to get into photography, for the past year I've been using my phone but now I've tried looking for my parents old 350D which I managed to find! So I got a question for you since you sound like you were in a bit of the same situation with finding and using it again the first time in 10 years or so, how long did it take you for the battery to charge? I've currently let it charge for 3 hours and the camera isn't turning on after these 3 hours. Is what I'm experiencing normal or do you think there's an issue with the battery or is it my patience there is something wrong with? :)

I cant decide. I want to start macro photography as a hobby. Smartphone with Macro lens attachment or Canon EOS 350D with Macro lens?

what sd card did you use on canon xt ? I bought the sandisk compact flash 30mb/s but it’s not going inside the memory card slot

I've been dying to get into photography! been researching for months on which camera to start with but dont have the funds for a great new one. Looking for my first camera on marketplace I came across this one for $50. Should I get it as a total newbie?? Or should i keep saving $$ ?

Was it the 550D?

lovely video! im working on a rehousing for the 350d, some of these camera's produce amazing camera's but have a body that is "out of date" i want to make a retromod for it that has a waist level viewfinder. its my goal to make a camera that doesnt have many distractions like buttons screens etc.

I have got a canon 350D for free from someone. How can I see how many clicks this camera has? I cannot the find the right software/website

Can i use external monitor for it not for live view but to see the photo even better

What is the price of this new and used camera please?

I just bought this camera second hand. It just doesn't have a battery or storage card. I would like to order them but have no idea which one to get. Can anyone help me?

Hi big!! I have this camera and I wanted to know how can I put the photos in the pc…thank you!

⚜️ I have the XTI, but in low light have much of aberration of colors like milions of line distorted.

Porque a minha nao funciona na luz do dia ? Dentro de casa funciona normal

is this the skyway?

Somtime I joke to my friend "I have canon 1400D" because I've still uses 4 350D😅 Well my 350D"s" is going dead but... still alive. These days positive film is more expensive than my camera(In korea kodak E100 is 25$ and used 350d price is 15-20$) LOL

Wait. Do you have a plant over a slider? Or tripod? 😅

Är Herrn en Malmö påg ?😉
