Well.. Now I've had this camera for a while and thought I would share my experience with it.
It's a full-size camera, so it sits good in my hand. I like it's sturdiness and that it is weather sealed. As it's a full-size camera also means it balances my normal lenses very fine. As Phill says, then it's a bit complex, but I would rather say versatile, because if you have bought this camera, then you would normally know a bit about photography. When you get to know the various functions, it's a walk in the park to use, as your most used settings, can be reached very easily, by the click of the buttons.
One of the highlights is the autofocus system, which is very fast and works admirably even in low light conditions. Talking about low light conditions, then I have no problem getting great shots at as high as ISO 6400.
My type of photography is ranging from macro photography, portraits, still life, street and all sorts of moving object and I can only recommend this great camera to anyone, who wants a professional grade camera at a decent expense. And on top of all this it's also a very good camera for shooting video at full HD.
I give it 5 stars, as I think it deserves nothing less.
What does the "EOS" stand for? Does this one take video also? How long have you had this one? Is there any other one you would suggest that is "better for value" or is this the one you would recommend? Thank you:)

Sits in my big hands very well but it might be a bit heavy for the fairer sex, other than the inevitable 300 page instruction book and the fact that it might be a little daunting for an inexperienced amateur, because of its complexity,it really is a pleasure to use. I'm dropping a star on my rating because of the unnecessary complexity for a professional camera.
