In response to a similar question I posted on another forum, one person pointed me to some testing he had done on these cams with regards to noise levels. http://ghonis2.ho8.com/rebelmod550du...omparison.html The 550d definitely has problems.

So ...
  • 1000D
  • 450D - Bringing this back into the mix

Both are essentially the same. Same vintage (both 2008), etc. The 450D has a slightly larger viewscreen.

Any other differences people know of which may help tip the balance?

Cheers,
