Take your photography to the next level with the award-winning Canon EOS 1000D Digital SLR Camera Body. This entry-level camera integrates some of Canon’s most advanced technology including its powerful DIGIC III image processor and the EOS Integrated Cleaning System.
This 10.1 mp camera is an ideal purchase for anyone wanting to move up from a compact camera, and will provide a marked increase in both image quality and creative possibilities! Focusing is performed via a 7-point wide area, enabling ultra-fast AF with hyper-sensitive central point focusing to enable well focused pictures in low light levels.
The Canon 1000D also boasts a 2.5-inch LCD screen with Live View mode, which enables you to take photos in situations where it's difficult to use the viewfinder, such as at low levels or awkward angles. You can also photograph fast action pictures with the help of 3fps continuous shooting (until the memory card is full).
Compatible with the complete range of Canon EF/EF-S lenses, Speedlite EX flash units and Canon EOS system accessories, the Canon EOS 1000D Digital SLR Camera Body also comes supplied with ZoomBrowser EX and ImageBrowser software, as well as the very highly rated Canon DPP program for top-quality RAW file processing.

Our delivery charge depends on the type of product ordered and whether you choose standard delivery (7 working days), or a premium. You only pay one delivery charge, irrespective of the number of products ordered. If you order two or more products which fall into different categories, the higher charge applies. The applicable standard delivery charge is shown on each product page and all charges will be visible before submitting your order . There are additional charges if you choose a premium delivery service. You will always be able to see all applicable charges before submitting your order.

We do everything we can to meet the delivery times specified in this section.
