For a long time, Canon has been focusing on DSLR cameras aimed at the prosumer target audience. However, the trend has slowly changed with Canon launching competitive DSLR cameras for the lower price segment. The EOS 400D and then, the EOS 1000D were all designed for this market.

I received this camera (body) and kit lens (18-55mm) as a gift in December. I saw this bundle for an amazing price in April and bought the bundle for my boyfriend. He loves it! (and to think he got so much more with his gift.

I need a SLR camera and this is an efficient one providing both automatic and manual functions. The larger LCD panel and video features are an improvement over my previously owned Canon Rebel

Great starter SLR camera. Has all the features you would need. Recommend an extra SD card to prevent missing out on pictures. All in all great camera.

I know I'm an amateur, but I love taking pictures. I'm a camera enthusiast and I enjoy using many different brands and models. I've used this camera a lot, and I believe it's excellent! I would say that it should be in a category with some of the best.

Good for indoor out door photos. Has flash attachment. Battery indicator. Focus lens. close up features.

Does not work with iphoto

Guided by the positive reviews of this camera and running short of time, I made the purchase. A South Amercan cruise and 800+ shots later, not one dud. Very happy with the ease of operation though did have to have a good read of the many deatures. Set the dial on Fully auto. and away we went.

"We've got to consider the pros and cons, make a list, get advice…" -Jim Backus in Rebel Without a Cause I don't blame you for being confused. I just tested the EOS Rebel T3i, which I really, really liked, and along comes this review of the EOS Rebel T3. What's the difference?

The Rebel T3 is a very attractively priced entry-level DSLR that provides solid performance and value. Its resolving power, low noise, relatively speedy AF, and well-designed controls should help ease novice shooters into the world of DSLRs.

A cheap and cheerful entry-level snapper but its competitors could serve you better
