GeekSugar — Tue, 14 Oct 2008 02:02:53 -0700

To officially kick off the start of the Fall season - and because I thought a SLR giveaway was way overdue - it's time for a new "Fresh for Fall" giveaway that includes a Canon Digital Rebel XSi Digital SLR Camera! With a 12.2-megapixel CMOS sensor on this camera, you'll be able to capture enough detail for poster-size, photo-quality prints. And you'll also get an EF-S 18-55mm, f3.5-5.6 IS zoom lens with Optical Image Stabilizer that gives you wide-angle to mid-range zoom flexibility. So listen up TeamSugar members, now's your chance to win one of your very own Canon Rebels and start having some photography fun!

To enter, you must log in and take the quiz below. Your eligibility is not based on getting the answers correct, just by completing the quiz once you are logged in. You do, however, need to be a TeamSugar member and log in before you take the quiz. If you're not already a member, just register here for an account. One quiz entry per person; all repeat quizzes will be ignored.

The contest is open to US residents only and ends on Oct. 28, 2008, at 5 p.m. PDT. For Official Rules, click here.
