I dropped into a Salvation Army thrift the other day. They had a Canon EOS Rebel XT, body only. It was Senior Day and it was on sale to boot. I picked it up for Ten bucks. I figured if it ended up being a boat anchor, I hadn't lost much. I brought it home, charged the battery, ran the camera through its paces, and WaLa. It worked.
I took it to my local camera store and tried a lens with it. It took great photos. I purchased the Canon EF-S 55-250mm f/4-5.6 IS Lens for $90 used and a 9+, great shape. I got it for my wife, But of course, I'll be using it too.
Do the math, $100 bucks and below are some of the results so far.....not bad I don't think.

A good deal indeed. My son is still using my old Rebel XT. The Rebels were always reliable.
