I'm looking at purchasing a DSLR. Mostly for portrait, nature, and family use.
Here's what I'm deciding between.

If you can have any idea/suggestions let me know! :)

Skip the 30D. The 30D isn't a bad camera but it's old tech and who knows how much use it's seen. Unless you know how to check for sensor damage, mold in the lens, number of actuations taken ... I'd stay away from used gear from individuals.
You know what they say ... Caveat Emptor.
Same with your second listing. a T1i ... used ... for 530$? You can buy it new for 690$.
475$ for an Xsi ... used no less ... is again ridiculous. You can get that one new for next to nothing 650$
Unless it;s half price or less ... not really worth it. you don;t know if they dropped it, did alot of SUPER long exposures (heat damage), if they've been wet ... too many things can go wrong.
If I had to choose ... out of the 3, I would take the Xsi (I own one and a T1i and have had a chance to shoot with a 7D, 60D, 1D Mk IV and a whole plethora of cameras). The Xsi is a very decent starting camera. The video on the T1i is more a novelty than of any use as you have no real control over settings like ISO while shooting and the audio is terrbile (very nice pictures thought)
Check out my website for shots taken with an Xsi and/or a T1i.
www.evildaystar.ca (website is a mess ... tryiong to clean it up).
And check out my flickr for some shots as well: http://www.flickr.com/photos/51633413@N07/
