I loved how they faulted the D50 for requiring a button to be held to set aperture in manual when the XT/350D also requires a button to set aperture in manual.* I've handled all of the cameras in the article, but only know the D50 and XT well.* I wonder what other things that certain cameras were faulted for also went unmentioned when talking about another model; it seemed like each of the "Ease of Use" categories had different foci.

The skintones on the XT did indeed look best to my eye (keep in mind preferences for skintone/other color vary by region and even individuals).* When using an XT I have found that they generally are pleasing, but with the built-in flash I've seen them shift yellow even with correct white balance settings.* The Nikon D50's skintone looked pretty bad in the review, but the default color space for the Nikon D50 is also really bad for skintones- the instruction manual states the sRGB III (default) is meant to be used in landscapes.* Personally, I prefer Mode II (Adobe RGB) as it is the most consistent across the different models, and renders the best Asian skintones- something my family requires.
