This is a decade old (released 2008!) SLR... considering I've seen Rebel T5 two lens kits going for about $400 new, this is honestly a pretty appalling "deal." If you're looking for a budget DSLR style camera, a Nikon D3300/3400 or Canon Rebel T5 would be a much better entry for not much money, and mirrorless options such as an Olympus E-M10ii refurb would be as well. There are reputable used vendors that sell more recent bodies in this series for less, as well - if you're hard set on getting a Canon DSLR.
With a more modern body, you'll get better high ISO, better base ISO dynamic range (fewer blown out skies), better AF, better burst rates, and video - this body doesn't even support video recording at all.
Additionally, Canon crop is 1.6x, not 1.5x.
I'd have to call this a hard pass this time.
