This camera has everything for which I was looking and has been a pleasure to use:
1) Reasonably weighted (some may prefer the more expensive EOS 7D's magnesium-alloy body, body this one works fine for me)
2) 5+ FPS, perfect for shooting the kids' sports events
3) Built-in flash for times when it is not convenient to use a shoe flash
4) SD support-unifying memory card support in the household is important. The EOS 7D uses Compact Flash, which is great if you you have it or do not mind carrying multiple card types
5)Support for my old EOS lenses. Yes, my 23-year-old EOS lenses still work (I did buy new, lighter lenses, but it is good to know I have backup)
6) Interface similar to my old EOS 620, including the top LCD for quickly changing ISO, drive mode, etc. (EOS Rebels do not have this from what I have seen)
7) Articulating LCD that can turn around so that my face does not press against the glass when shooting. This is similar to that screen on the Gx series, which is a good thing for me.
Sure, some negatives may exist, but I am just delighted with the camera and do not want to dwell on them. Other reviewers have pointed out the negatives.
