The XS is an excellent entry level DSLR.. actually any of the entry level cameras are about equal. It becomes a matter of personal preference. When you buy a DSLR you are buying into a whole system of cameras, lenses and accessories, you’ll want to keep that in mind when shopping for a camera.
Go to http://dpreview.com and compare the entry level cameras using the side by side tool, read the reviews and study the sample images. Also, go to the manufacturer’s website and look at the available lenses and Accessories for future growth.
Then when you have narrowed down your selections go to a store and handle the different cameras, try the controls and look at the menus, buy the one which feels right in your hands.
