Canon EOS 1000D is a 10.1-megapixel digital single-lens reflex camera announced by Canon on 10 June 2008 and started shipping in mid August 2008. It is known as the EOS Kiss F in Japan and the EOS Rebel XS in the United States and Canada. The 1000D is an entry-level DSLR that has been described as being a step below the 450D.{{cite web|url=http://www.dpreview.com/reviews/canoneos1000d|title=Canon EOS 1000D (Rebel XS / Kiss F) Review|last=Butler|first=Richard|date=July 2008|publisher=dpreview.com|accessdate=20 November 2009}}
