User-selectable metering patterns, AF modes, custom functions and flash exposure compensation
The Digital Rebel XT offers some of the easiest operation available in a digital camera today. But when you're ready, it offers a number of advanced setting options previously found only on higher-end models.
Metering Patterns
With the Digital Rebel XT, you have a choice of whether to use 35-zone AF point evaluative metering, partial metering at the center of the image or centerweighted averaged metering, similar to a meter in a traditional 35mm camera.
AF Modes
Where the original Digital Rebel chose your AF mode for you, the Digital Rebel XT offers a choice of one-shot, AI Servo or AI focus, letting you make the call yourself.

These improvements have no effect on automatic functions - the Rebel XT is one of the simplest digital SLRs you'll ever use, but these advanced features are at your fingertips the instant you want them.
