    $30 DSLR has a minor issue...

    I just came back from purchasing a broken Rebel XS from a craigslist seller for $30. Looking at the test shots on the back of the camera they were either coming out in black & white or had a crazy, pixelated solarization effect going on. Anyway, it turns out any JPG files saved to the memory...
