[@thehighermine6496]

Short flashback to 15 years before. Thx👍🏻

[@DavidHancock]

Thank you!

[@JoshP08]

Thanks for all you're videos! When I finally got my DSLR I pretty much knew how to set up settings and got right to shooting great photos!

[@DavidHancock]

Thank you and that's fantastic!

[@YouTubeCertified]

Just got a used Rebel xti I look forward to checking out the rest of your series. Thanks

[@DavidHancock]

Thank you!

[@Max-by5xq]

i got this camera for $10 at a yard sale and i never could figure it out thank you so much for this

[@DavidHancock]

Nice find!

[@SupaThePink]

Thanks a lot for these really helpful videos! I've recently taken up astrophotography and got this camera used from my mom, so as a person whose never used a "real" camera before this is very useful.

[@DavidHancock]

Thank you!

[@TheTexanDuolingo]

Same I got mine from my mom too

[@rocky0453]

excellent presentation!

[@DavidHancock]

Thank you!

[@definedecline]

i bought this camera new in 2007 and spent i think around $700 for it. sad to see it's now worth maybe $100 but compared to today's cameras i can see why. time moves on!

[@DavidHancock]

Yeah, old DSLRs have not held their value.

[@fenixlolnope361]

A $30 camera off eBay might need a CLA though. I just ordered one, pray I win the lottery.. ordered a bare body to go with a film EOS Rebel and the lenses it came with

[@definedecline]

i also bought this camera in 2007, it's very lightly used and like new. MPB offered me 10 dollars trade-in. I'd rather give it to someone just starting out....

[@deepakjohar2992]

So this is my first DSLR - bought it in 2008, and still learning... hope to upgrade to a more recent model soon, and I'm sure that your videos would definitely help to enhance understanding....

[@DavidHancock]

Thank you!

[@Stan_o7]

This was my first DSLR! I still enjoy using it tbh, in good light it can still produces some great images. enjoyed the vid, thnx.

[@DavidHancock]

Thank you!

[@frrapp2366]

i have a xti that i inherited from my father-n-law who was a published wildlife photographer i believe it still has an early software in it doesnt have several of the settings in the menu that you showed But it still uploads to my 6 month old asus laptop so you dont Have to pull the card to download it (keeps from buggering it up like yours got on the contacts), got some great pics of the 10/14/23 eclipse in NM --- keeps on snapping pics like a champ

[@DavidHancock]

Nice! Yeah, these have held up really well.

[@thefilmcameraclub8141]

Ah the Kiss Series. Crazy how many of them canon made.

[@DavidHancock]

No kidding. It's like the threw a new one onto the market every time someone said 'hey, here's an idea for a new thing we can do with these.'

[@kool-aiddealer6268]

Thank you very informative 👍

[@DavidHancock]

Thank you!

[@NewCourseForHumanity]

Good Job David!

[@DavidHancock]

Thank you!

[@greggmoore1403]

I recently purchased one of these cameras. Thank you for your videos. My question is in regard to video. I understand that that the camera does not record video, but there is a port on the side labeled "video out" . Can you explain?

[@DavidHancock]

Thank you and yes. That port can connect to a TV for playback slideshows.

[@Nigarbal239]

Thank you so much! İ can try using my eos350d after this video 😆✊🏻

[@DavidHancock]

Nice!

[@barbarahiggins4006]

Does it have a SD slot? Also does it need a CF/SD card to turn on? I have charged the battery for hours but I havent been able to turn it on so I'm assuming that's why? I'm not sure

[@DavidHancock]

CF only on this. The memory card is not required for it to power on. The battery could require overnight to charge, but if it's not turning on with a full battery then either the power switch or electronics board needs to be replaced. If you just bought it, I'd recommend returning it if it won't power on.

[@raybeaumont7670]

You forgot the Stop Down/DOF button.

[@DavidHancock]

Thank you. The button simply closes the aperture to provide DoF preview.

[@Ratkill]

Would you recommend not attempting to clean a 400D sensor?

[@DavidHancock]

It depends on how you do it. With a bulb blower and a sensor cleaning brush, it's a-okay to clean the sensor and should be done. I do not use solvents or cleaning fluid or similar things on sensors unless there's a very significant need such as grease on the sensor.

[@PERFECTION.VIBES12]

Thank you sir for your professionality Pls sir I have a problem with my canon 400d camera The camera snaps but my images are horizontal half that's the images are not complete pls sir I need your help

[@DavidHancock]

Hmm. Does that happen at all shutter speeds? It sounds like only half the image is recording and the other half is black. Is that correct?

[@julianenriquez9185]

Hello, I currently have this camera but only have a zoom lens, where am I able to find that lens you used in video? Thank you.

[@DavidHancock]

That's the 50mm f/1.8 EF lens. If you'd like to learn more about it, here is a review I did of that lens: kzbin.info/www/bejne/rHurlIWjr5ljiJI

[@ernestkooistra1559]

Good info, thanks!

[@DavidHancock]

Thank you!

[@paddlepower888]

Hi David. This camera is okay for moderate to high resolution web photos but not so much for print photos right? Thanks Jeff

[@DavidHancock]

I'd agree. A 10 megapixel sensor could deliver a print-grade image to about 8x10 (A4 off you're outside the US.)

[@paddlepower888]

@@DavidHancock Thank you! WRT firmware update 1.1.1 . Canon's website says it just adds info about lenses when printing with PictBridge. It also said "your firmware is up-to-date"--I can divine how they could possibly know. I'm having no issues with the camera--I stopped looking.

[@joshuascott5867]

Can u make a video how to mirror pictures in the tv?

[@DavidHancock]

I cannot. I don't own aTV.

[@mattiaballotti5594]

I have a question: i have a Canon EOS 400D (that mine friend gifted to me only because she wasen't using it while i liked it so mutch that she gifted it to me, thanks friend!!) but i can't see all the photos that i shooted connecting the mini-B exit to my PC, but i haven't a cf card reader, how can i resolve? (i only see the photos shooted before 3 days ago)

[@DavidHancock]

Interesting. I'd try reading them off the CF card on your PC and see what happens. If they transfer and you can see them that way then a-okay. If not, let me know.

[@mattiaballotti5594]

​@@DavidHancock I may ask my friend to give me the CF reader (i haven't one) and try reading the card directly from the computer as you said, when this will happen i will tell you the results, meanwhile thanks for the reply

[@mattiaballotti5594]

​@@DavidHancock Ok, i found that i was wrong, using che cable i can see all the images, with the cf card reader i can see even more files than using the cable, but, for a motivation that i can't explain some photos where saved "IMG_XXXX.JPG" and others "_MG_XXXX.JPG" and because of the alphabetical order in the folder the "_MG_XX..." goes before the "IMG_XX..." also if the number XXXX is higther in the "_MG_XX..." and because of this i wasen't finding the latest photos i was shooting... (the motivation may be the mode of the photocamera, like manual rather than auto or others, but its strange, what do you think?)

[@alexfauble3235]

I bought one of these for my wife. Unfortunately I am having trouble deciding what memory card to buy. I originally bought a 512 GB SD card and CF adapter. Yeah, it didn't like that. I'm guessing it's an issue with the adapter. I know older hardware sometimes has trouble addressing large memory cards and I found a lot of conflicting information on what the maximum card size is that is still compatible with the XTi. I have read literally read articles and forums claiming 512 MB max, 2GB max, 2 GB min, 4 GB max, 8 GB max, 32 GB max, and no max all for this exact model. Very frustrating. So I'd rather ask someone who owns one directly. What is the maximum memory size you have been able to use with this camera? And what is the file format and sector size?

[@DavidHancock]

I don't recall off the top of my head, but Video 2 covers memory cards, stable types, and the maximum sizes.

[@alexfauble3235]

@@DavidHancock Update. There actually wasn't anything wrong with my card or the adapter. The adapter I had was kind of funky and the card wasn't properly seated. After fixing that I tried again and it worked flawlessly with no errors. So I can officially testify that a Class 10 512 GB SDXC card in an SDXC to Type I CF adapter works just dandy with this camera. The only error (if you can call it that) is that the Photos Remaining counter is stuck on 9999, because there's actually room for about 42,000 photos by my estimate.

[@DavidHancock]

@@alexfauble3235 nice and thank you!

[@nigelwest5776]

I actually had this problem using a MicroSD into an SD adapter into a compact flash and it didn't work at first but I tried a 4GB SD into the same compact flash adapter as well as a separate MicroSD and both of those worked

[@zhyrick21]

can you connect it to a mobile phone?

[@DavidHancock]

Nope

[@TheTexanDuolingo]

6:01 I’m on windows 11 and I can still use it

[@DavidHancock]

Nice and thank you!

[@johanmanueltovar9851]

Bello friend, could hoy explain to me how to récord videos with that camera? I don't know how to put it on récord please 🙏
