I only started taking pictures about 2 months ago. I will take about 50 pictures of a particular animal and usually there is a handful that are really nice and the others are either to light or to dark so I know what you mean about trying to capture the color. I believe I have the same camera a Rebel XT ESO 350D. I am really happy with the pictures it takes. What I have discovered is that if you are in a partially lighted area and use the built in flash that seems to really bring out the colors. One thing about digital you can practice all you want. Good luck.

Rick Douglas.
