Which is better, canon eos kiss or canon eos 400D?

Question

Which is better, canon eos kiss or canon eos 400D?

Answer 1

They're Wrong...

The " kiss " is the British name for the 350d, and you want to see which one is better the kiss ( 350d ), or the canon rebel xti, or the 400d. The answer is really obvious.

THE REBEL XTI ( 400D ) IS BETTER

It has more megapixels

a screen almost twice the size of the 350d

dust cleaning technologies

more price, and build ( you get what you pay for )

updates ( 350d was upgrade to 400d, the made changes )

That's quite simply why you should get the rebel xti, it's just more of a better and stronger camera:

Answer 2

They are the same camera, named for different markets... Japan - Kiss... Europe - 400D ... USA - XTi ..  Depending upon where you live, you'll want to buy that market's version, in order to take advantage of the warranties.

Answer 3

From DPReview:

International Naming

U.S. - Canon Rebel Digital XTi

Japan - Canon EOS Kiss Digital X

Elsewhere - Canon EOS 400D

All the same camera with different names.

This different naming is done to help prevent "gray market" cameras. A "gray Market" camera is one bought in, say, Hong Kong and imported to the U.S. where it can be sold cheaper. Same camera but with no U.S. warranty.

Answer 4

You may or may not actually be referring to the same camera. Certain Canon cameras are named differently depending on where they are released. In North America the Rebel series go by the "Canon EOS Digital Rebel _" naming.

In Europe and in some other parts of the world, the "Canon EOS _ _ _ D" naming is used.

In Japan and maybe a few other Asian markets, the "Canon EOS Kiss _ " naming is used.

So:

Canon EOS Digital Rebel = Canon EOS 300D = Canon EOS Kiss

Canon EOS Digital Rebel XT = Canon EOS 350D = Canon EOS Kiss N

Canon EOS Digital Rebel XTi = Canon EOS 400D = Canon EOS Kiss X

Canon EOS Digital Rebel XSi = Canon EOS 450D = Canon EOS Kiss X2

They are essentially the same camera, except for the name. There may be some slight differences, nothing you would really notice in the actual operation of the camera. (Warranty, battery charger voltage would be different.)

The Canon EOS Kiss would be the same as the Canon EOS 300D, so I would have to say the 400D would be the better camera.
