Canon is adding another model to its entry-level D-SLR series -- the EOS 1000D/Rebel XS, whose release has been rumored on various technology blogs.

The new camera, announced Monday, includes a few improvements over the EOS Rebel XT, which it replaces, such as a 2.5-inch CMOS LCD, an increase to 10.1 megapixels, and the Live View feature. Live View enables a user to shoot through the LCD screen rather than through an optical viewfinder.
