Thank you to all the photographers that shared their best photos showing colorful birds in this photo contest with chances to win a Canon Rebel XS and more. The Canon Rebel XS shares some features with the XTi, with a 10.1-megapixel image sensor and a 2.5-inch LCD, compared to the Rebel XSi’s 12.1 and 3-inch LCD. The XS also returns to the 7-point AF sensor from the Rebel XT, compared to the 9-point AF sensor in the XTi and XSi). The XS also returns to 12-bit processing compared to the XSi’s 14-bit system, and the infrared remote control on the front and proximity sensors on the back are also removed in the XS.
A special thanks to the photographers that helped us find the following finalists and some of the most popular photos by voting for their favorite submissions. Stay tuned for the winners announcement and more PRO-only photo contests.
