I won't call the EOS 300D a "prosumer" DSLR, since looking at Canon's marketing strategy it is clear the its DSLR family is divided into 3 lines:
Right now the infobox says the 300D has spot metering. It doesn't. Only the hacked version (source?) has unlocked spot metering, if I recall correctly. So should it be included in the infobox? I can't decide. Any thoughts? -- Thomas Ploeger 21:30, 27 May 2006 (UTC)
How do I narrow down What links here so that it gives me a list of images in Wikipedia shot with a Digital Rebel or 300D? ShutterBugTrekker 22:06, 27 April 2007 (UTC)
The history section just duplicates some of the information in Canon DSLR cameras. Further, the section has nothing to do with the history of the 300D, but rather it lists the progression of Canon's mid-range DSLR family. As such, I am going to delete it on the basis of redundancy. 68.230.115.87 ( talk) 04:38, 19 March 2010 (UTC)
Consider adding 'Nikon Camera Timeline' to the 'See Also' section or creating a template named something like 'Other Camera Vendor Timelines'. Nikon a major competitor to Canon and many who view this page may want to compare with Nikon's timeline. Either way it is still relevant information.

The battery model for the Canon EOS300D camera is wrongly listed as BP-511 in many places, including the official user manual from Canon ( see here). This includes this wiki page (until recently corrected) and (at least) many review sites.
I personally own a Canon EOS300D camera. The original battery it came with is clearly marked NB-2LH.
I also own a Canon DV camera model MV730i which works with the BP-511 battery. So yes, I have both kinds of devices and both types of batteries. And I can tell for certain that they are very different.
Almost rectangular with 2 rounded edges.
LxWxH: 45x33x15mm
2S1P LiIon 7.4V 700mAh
Has 3 electrical contacts.
Rectangular with 2 slanted/rounded edges.
LxWxH: 55x37x40mm (for BP-522, only height differs between submodels)
2S1P LiIon 7.4V (for BP-508/511/512/514)
2S2P LiIon 7.4V 2200mAh (for BP-522)
2S3P LiIon 7.4V 4500mAh (for BP-535)
Internal build: standard industrial grade LiIon cylindrical cells and additional circuitry (probably for cell balancing).
