>>33871 Small, quiet, unobtrusive. Excellent high ISO capability, excellent resolution, very good autofocus and autoexposure, and no Nikon-style "Will this lens/body combination autofocus? Will it meter light?" alphabet soup guessing games.
I've got the older version, the XT, but both are the same physical size and have a nearly identical resolution and control layout. I usually set my EF28/2.8 prime on it when I'm going streetshooting. I get better candid results with this combination than I would with some "hey! notice me!" D80 or 30D/superzoom combo monstrosity. Some complain about the small handgrip, but that's all personal preference. I personally find the D80/30D/etc to be too damn big. I just wish Canon made pancake primes.
Frankly, I wish someone would make a DSLR even smaller than the XT/XTi/K100D/etc, or make a compact with an APS-C sensor, 50mm-equivalent f/2.8 or faster lens, and full manual controls.
