Pros: Lightweight, well-made, robust, great colors and highly workable files

Cons: I haven't found any, maybe in the dark he's in a corner

Opinion: My opinion is that for 2005 it could be one of the best entry level cameras there could be, the files it produces are very nice as colors and crunchy as detail, at 8 megapixels it can satisfy 90% of amateurs who just want to shoot. I have other cameras even with 10 years younger (eos M3) but thanks to the high resolution and the kit lens not up to par it cannot have the same detail. I still regret it now, but I can let off steam with the e450 I have
