Even though this camera is two years old now, it still is a wonderful, simple DSLR to use which gets the most important thing right and remains an excellent value for the money. The camera has a glossy plastic finish which doesn't exactly exude quality or make it feel like a high-end camera.

But Grunin at CNET calls the T3's features "uninspiring," and recommends stepping up to Canon's next level. For example, the EOS Rebel T2i (*Est. $650 with kit lens) offers spot metering, a tool that helps the camera correctly photograph high-contrast scenes like the moon on a dark night.

Spiritual successor to the Rebel XS line, minus many features of other Canon DSLRs

Good color accuracy for the price; Excellent noise performance
