We asked for gift cards to Best Buy for Christmas and are now trying to decide between the Canon rebel XS or XSi. Can anyone recommend one or the other? I can see the differences on paper, but I'm not sure how that all translates to real life. Thanks in advance!

I haven't personally shot with the XS or XSi, but after reading the specs, I'd recommend the XSi. One of the big things that stands out is the screen size. A 3" screen can show you a lot more than a 2.5" screen. It can mean the difference between looking back and thinking a shot is in focus and realizing that it's not. :p (If that makes any sense?)

Here's a good comparison article on the two:
