Come to mama! As a beauty blogger a girl couldn't ask for more so when my husband finally caved in and said we're getting you that new camera you've been wanting for Xmas... I was like a kid in a candy store. We waited until after Christmas to buy it because the camera went down over $100. It cost $799 before Xmas and it cost $619 + tax after Xmas. I'm so happy and I can't wait to use it and kiss my 7.2mp Canon Cybershot good buy!
Canon Rebel T3i / EOS 600D with
18
MP and HD Movie
Canon today announces the launch of the Rebel T3i (EOS 600D
in some countries) – a compact, lightweight Digital SLR (DSLR) that makes
capturing exciting, fun and creative images easier than ever. The perfect
choice for aspiring photographers looking for a combination of outstanding
image quality and ease-of-use, the Rebel T3i sits at the top of Canon’s
entry-level EOS line-up, above the existing EOS T2i and the new Rebel T3.
Capturing stunning images and Full HD video has never been
easier, thanks to a range of automatic shooting modes that beginners can use to
instantly express their creativity. A Feature Guide has been added to the user
interface to help you learn about the camera as you use it, helping to develop
your photography skills. With an unrivalled range of EF lenses, Speedlites and
other accessories to enhance your shooting, the EOS system holds the key to the
perfect shot – wherever your journey takes you, and whatever the scene before
you.
First-class image quality
The Rebel T3i provides all the tools to capture beautiful
stills and HD movies. Amazing picture detail is provided by a high-resolution
18 Megapixel (MP) APS-C CMOS sensor, which combines with 14-bit DIGIC 4
processing so you can capture the wonder of a beautiful blue sky and enjoy
exceptionally smooth gradients between colours. The camera’s low light shooting
capability enables you to achieve clear, natural images in darker conditions,
with an ISO range of 100-6400 that can be further expanded to 12800.
Great for shooting pets, children or wildlife, the Rebel T3i
allows high-speed shooting at 3.7 frames per second (fps), enabling you to
capture fast-moving action. Each shot will be captured in sharp detail thanks
to the 9-point Auto Focus system, which can track subjects using the auto focus
points across the frame. Even more accurate focusing is providing by an
extra-sensitive central AF Sensor, while the iFCL Metering system from the
semi-professional EOS 7D features a 63-zone Dual-layer metering sensor, helping
you to ensure your shot is correctly exposed, even in difficult lighting
conditions.
Easy shooting, amazing results
New fully-automatic Scene Intelligent Auto mode makes it
easy for you to capture outstanding quality shots with almost no effort.
Allowing you to focus exclusively on framing your picture, Scene Intelligent
Auto analyses the scene for you and automatically picks the best settings to
capture it. Your images will look better than ever thanks to a new ‘Auto’
Picture Style, which automatically makes fine adjustments to colours while you
focus on capturing the scene you want.
The Rebel T3i also makes it easy for you to instantly add
creativity to your pictures. Change the atmosphere of a scene with Basic+,
which allows you to pick the mood you want to achieve from one of eight
options, including ‘Warm’, ‘Cool’ or ‘Intense’. Whether you’re shooting
landscapes, portraits, or close-up macro shots, Basic+ makes it easy to capture
the perfect image.
Simple, flexible, artistic
Ideal for beginners, a Feature Guide has been added to the
Rebel T3i’s menu system, offering a brief description of each key setting and
its effect, helping you learn more about the camera as you use it.
You can also shoot overhead, at ground level or around
corners with the Rebel T3i’s Vari-angle 7.7cm 3:2 ratio ClearView LCD. Rich
on-screen detail is provided in 1.04 million-dot resolution, and the
side-mounted hinge allows users to comfortably and creatively shoot from a
range of unusual angles, or when using a tripod. A smudge-resistant fluorine
coating and three anti-reflection coatings also ensure you can see the LCD in
clear detail, wherever you are.
Allowing you to apply your own stamp to your shots, the
Rebel T3i is perfect for experimenting with different Creative Filters.
Fish-eye-Effect creates a barrel-shaped distortion similar to a fish-eye lens,
and you can instantly turn a scene into a small-scale model with Miniature
Effect. Toy Camera Effect, Grainy B/W and Soft Focus offer additional options,
allowing you to experiment with your images in a number of different ways.
