Remember the Essentials
A lens is required but not included for this item. Please be sure to purchase the lens that best suits your needs.
The Canon EOS Rebel T3i Digital Camera body puts the widely respected value and flexibility of the Rebel DSLR at your fingertips. Pair it with any Canon EF and EF-S lenses to create photographs that are uniquely your own. With an 18MP CMOS (APS-C) sensor and Canon's DIGIC 4 Image Processor the T3i captures beautiful, high resolution JPEG, RAW, and RAW+JPEG images to your choice of SD/SDHC/SDXC memory cards (sold separately), or external media via the included USB cable.
The camera also records full HD .MOV video at 1920 x 1080/30p/24p, among other frame rate options. The wide range of compatible lenses and the camera's dedicated live view give you the flexibility you need to create wonderful HD DSLR movies.
No matter what you're recording - still images or vibrant video - the T3i provides you with a vari-angle 3.0" Clear View LCD monitor that flips-out and is adjustable at a variety of angles for shooting and review of your subject. The camera also features an eye-level viewfinder for more precise composition of shots.
Canon's 63 zone dual-layer sensor works with the 9 point AF system for excellent exposures by minimizing in-camera meter reading error. The system produces more accurate images even in low-lit settings. The T3i also features an in-camera flash or the option to connect a flash, and is Speedlite compatible. Another feature worth mentioning when it comes to exposure include the camera's 100-6400 ISO rating which is expandable up to 12800. Using this setting along with Canon's Optical Image Stabilizer produces incredible low light shots.
In addition, the T3i features a number of user-friendly modes that allow the user to simplify their experience. Intelligent Auto mode, for example, takes the guesswork out of shooting by automatically setting 5 of the camera's technologies to create the optimum image. Other helpful shooting controls like Basic+ provides the user with 2 options for making creative photos like a pro. The ambience selection adjusts exposure and white balance to give your images a unique look and feel. When shooting by lighting or scene type, Basic+ creates artistic filters for the scene or gives it the feel that the viewer is focused on the center of the image. Of course, other shooting controls like the feature guide and quick control screen help to streamline your experience with the camera as well.
- The Rebel on the Move
- Photographers looking for an easy-to-use camera that will help them create their next masterpiece need look no further than the Canon EOS Rebel T3i. The next in a long line of phenomenal compact DSLRs, the EOS Rebel T3i continues the Rebel tradition of easy operation, compact design and no-compromise performance. Featuring Canon's newest DIGIC 4 Image Processor and an 18.0 Megapixel CMOS Image Sensor - plus cutting-edge technologies like Full HD video recording, Live View shooting, Wireless flash photography and even a Vari-angle 3.0" LCD monitor - the EOS Rebel T3i offers the best of EOS photography in a compact package
- High Resolution Still Capture
- The EOS Rebel T3i has an 18.0MP CMOS (Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor) sensor that captures images with exceptional clarity and tonal range and offers more than enough resolution for big enlargements or crops. This first-class sensor features many of the same new technologies as used by professional Canon cameras to maximize each pixel's light-gathering efficiency. Its APS-C size sensor creates an effective 1.6x field of view (compared to 35mm format)
- DIGIC 4 Image Processor
- The Canon DIGIC 4 Image Processor dramatically speeds up the entire EOS Rebel T3i DSLR's camera operations for intuitive operation and offers improvements in both fine detail and natural color reproduction. It works in concert with the EOS Rebel T3i DSLR's CMOS Image Sensor to achieve phenomenal levels of performance in nearly any situation
- Amazing Results, No Matter the Light
- The EOS Rebel T3i features an expanded ISO range that makes shooting possible in situations previously unthinkable without flash. With an ISO rating up to 6400 (expandable to ISO 12800), along with the DIGIC 4 Image Processor's improved noise-reduction technology, creative possibilities abound. Combine the EOS Rebel T3i with one of Canon's EF or EF-S lenses with Optical Image Stabilizer and the shooting possibilities for both movies and stills expand even further
- HD Dreams Come True
-
The EOS Rebel T3i does not just shoot video clips, it offers the enhanced ease-of-use, image quality, smooth frame rates and adaptive exposure compensation necessary in a professional video-making tool by boasting the most advanced EOS video capturing features to date: When Full HD (1920 x 1080) is set, you can use Movie Digital Zoom to magnify the center of the image by 3-10x while at the same time maintaining gorgeous Canon Full HD image quality. With the Video Snapshot feature, the EOS Rebel T3i DSLR will capture short video clips (of 2, 4 or 8 seconds) then combine them automatically into one video file as a snapshot or highlights "album." With no editing needed after shooting, the compiled video is perfect for sharing online or displaying directly on an HDTV via the camera's HDMI port
In addition to a number of different recording size and frame rate modes, the EOS Rebel T3i enables easy manual control of exposure, focus and Live View features and even allows for in-camera editing. The large CMOS sensor and compatibility with over 60 lenses provide a wealth of depth-of-field options. And it's all as easy as the press of a button - the EOS Rebel T3i has a dedicated Live View/Movie Recording start/stop button that gets the shooting started fast
- Three Recording Sizes
- Full HD Video is captured at 1920 x 1080 resolution at 30p (29.97), 24p (23.976) or 25p frames per second, for up to 4GB per clip. Videos are saved as .MOV files and can be viewed in Full HD with HDMI output. Other recording sizes include HD at 1280 x 720 (50p/60p (59.94) fps) or SD/VGA at 640 x 480 (30p (29.97) and 25p fps)
- Low Angles or High, a Big Vari-Angle LCD Captures All the Details
- The EOS Rebel T3i features a bright, high resolution, flip-out Vari-angle 3.0" Clear View LCD monitor for shooting at a variety of angles. By simply rotating the monitor, you can hold the camera directly overhead for above-the-crowd shots at concerts, or hold the camera at a low angle for kids and pets. By rotating the LCD monitor fully, the EOS Rebel T3i becomes the ideal camera for self-portraits. The EOS Rebel T3i freely enables easy angle adjustments even if the camera is mounted on a tripod or has a battery grip attach
- Automatic Scene Analysis for Standout Color
- The EOS Rebel T3i DSLR's new Scene Intelligent Auto mode unites five Canon digital camera technologies - the new Picture Style Auto, plus Automatic Lighting Optimizer, Automatic White Balance, Autofocus, and Automatic Exposure -into a powerful new feature for photographers. Using the advanced EOS Scene Detection System, the camera automatically analyzes the image, taking into account faces, colors, brightness, movement and contrast. Scene Intelligent Auto then chooses the enhancing features to deliver maximum impact. Blues and greens are more vivid, "hot" colors are more fiery, and skin tones are smooth and truer to life
- Make Your Images As You See Them
-
Basic+ is a new creative imaging feature that makes it easy to create the image effects you want. It can be set with the Quick Control screen in Basic Zone modes. Basic+ provides two options:
Shoot by ambience selection
Based on the Picture Style and its parameters (sharpness, contrast, saturation, and color tone), the exposure compensation and white balance correction are adjusted to attain the selected ambience. You can also can also select the strength of the ambience effect
Shoot by lighting or scene type
Although the actual parameter set is the white balance, the settings are expressed in more understandable terms
The Multi-Aspect Function of the EOS Rebel T3i lets you express an image in one of three ways by matching the aspect ratio to each scene. In addition to the camera's standard 3:2 ration, the Multi-Aspect Function includes a 1:1 ratio that creates the sensation that the viewer's gaze is focusing upon the center of the image. At the 4:3 ratio, you get nearly the same aspect ratio as a regular TV or a 4:3 computer display. The 16:9 aspect ratio provides a wide look, much the same as HDTV
The EOS Rebel T3i incorporates five in-camera Creative Filters so you can artistically manipulate scenes without the aid of an outside computer. Soft Focus lends a dreamy, romantic aspect, while Grainy Black and White gives a dramatically gritty, hard-bitten look. Miniature Effect creates an illusion in which expansive subjects are seemingly reduced to doll-house-like proportions, and Toy Camera Effect recreates the colors and softness rendered by cameras with a plastic lens, an effect often sought after by art photographers. Fish Eye Effect mimics the "Fisheye" lenses that are favorites of professional photographers for their quirky, convex perspective
- Intelligent Scene Analysis for Superb Exposure
- The EOS Rebel T3i features a sophisticated, 63 zone Dual-layer sensor designed to complement the 9-point AF system. By taking into account the color and luminosity surrounding chosen AF points, this system delivers an advanced level of accuracy for better results even in difficult lighting situations. Since the metering sensor has a color measurement function, exposure errors and focus errors caused by different light sources are minimized; the EOS Rebel T3i gives stable exposure from shot to shot in situations where light changes, such as in a theater or concert hall. This makes the EOS Rebel T3i ideal for scenes with extreme difference in brightness such as brightly lit scenes or backlit scenes; the camera balances exposure of the main subject at the background, and exposures are not overly influenced by bright areas in the shot. Since the EOS Rebel T3i provides high-speed X-sync ("X-sync" means the fastest shutter speed that can synchronize with a flash burst at the moment the shutter is fully released) up to 1/200 sec., the range of photographic expression is dramatically increased, allowing the EOS Rebel T3i to be used with confidence in bright scenes or dim
- Never Miss a Moment
- The EOS Rebel T3i can shoot up to 3.7 frames per second (fps) for up to approximately 6 consecutive RAW files or approximately 34 full-resolution JPEGs. Shooting at speeds of up to 1/4000 sec., the EOS Rebel T3i can capture even rapidly-unfolding scenes with ease
- Photography Made Truly Easy
- The Canon EOS Rebel T3i DSLR demystifies great photography by including an in-camera feature guide. Appearing on the camera's LCD, the feature guide displays a simple description or advice for the respective function. It is displayed in each shooting mode, during mode dial operations, and for quick control screen functions (during normal shooting, Live View shooting, movie shooting, and playback). The feature guide appears automatically during mode dial operations and when a function is selected on the quick control screen
- Flexible Storage with Memory Cards
-
The EOS Rebel T3i uses popular SD, SDHC and SDXC memory cards. Compact, inexpensive and available in increasingly large capacities, SD, SDHC and SDXC memory cards are a perfect complement to the EOS Rebel T3i DSLR's compact and lightweight body design. Using the included USB cable, you can also transfer and record to other forms of media, like external hard drives.
Additionally, the EOS Rebel T3i is compatible with Eye-Fi SD cards, which are outfitted with a Wi-Fi transmitter (IEEE 802.11b/g) and an internal antenna for wireless, high-speed transfer of images. With an Eye-Fi card installed, the EOS Rebel EOS Rebel T3i can display the Eye-Fi's connection status and error notes with ease, for fully functional wireless uploading of images directly from the camera
- EF Lenses
- The EOS Rebel T3i is compatible with all Canon lenses in the EF lineup, including compact and lightweight EF-S lenses, ranging from ultra-wide angle to super telephoto lenses. Canon lenses employ advanced optical expertise and micron-precision engineering to deliver outstanding performance and deliver beautiful results. Special technologies like the Canon Image Stabilizer technology in select lenses helps to minimize the effect of camera shake, effectively adding up to four stops of light. With a dizzying array of lenses perfect for travel, sports, still life and everything in between, photographers can truly maximize the quality and performance of their EOS Rebel T3i with superlative Canon optics
- Flash Photography
-
With a flash sync speed of 1/200 of a second, the EOS Rebel T3i also features the acclaimed E-TTL II flash metering system. With any of the flashes in the EX Speedlite line, E-TTL II provides reliable flash output whether shooting fill-in flash pictures in sunlight, or using flash in total darkness. With E-TTL II, the exact same 35-zone metering sensor used for measuring ambient light is also used for flash metering - giving even finer metering command of the image area. If you prefer a broader area for flash metering, there's a menu setting to change to "Average" flash metering - where the entire 35-zone area is measured evenly for flash exposure. Additionally, the EOS Rebel T3i has a Speedlite transmitter built-in for convenient, full-featured wireless control of EX-series Speedlite flashes set as slave units
The Canon Speedlite 430EX II is the ideal step-up accessory for powerful flash shooting with the EOS Rebel T3i. It has excellent flash power (maximum guide number of 141 ft./43m at ISO 100), and is the perfect way to get great flash pictures when you can't get right up to the subject. The 430EX II is also great for bounce flash, with its tilting and swiveling flash head. It automatically zooms the flash head to cover lenses ranging from 16mm up to 105mm or longer with the EOS Rebel T3i. Of course, it works with the camera to provide full E-TTL II automatic flash exposure. And the 430EX II has a powerful AF-assist beam, which allows the camera to autofocus even in total darkness on subjects as far as 32 ft. from the camera

This is my first DSLR after giving up my film SLR probably a decade ago. I use it for family pictures and general photography. The camera is wonderfully easy to use, with lots of ability. Controlling it is a learning process.
Pros:
- Lots of options that are easily accessible.
- Large display. Having aging eyes, I can still read and set most of the menus without my readers.
- Canon system- enough said.
- Lightweight- easy to carry around.
- Size- have a small 5.11 kit bag that holds the camera, Sigma 18-200 zoom, Canon 50mm lens, 320EX flash, Stroboframe folding flash bracket, and insundry accessories. Doesn't scream steal me.
- Images- WOW. Upgrading from a 6mp Lumix was very nice.
- RAW images- makes post processing easier. I no longer feel like I am fighting against the camera.
- Layout- Controls are laid out nicely. Swiveling display was a wonderful addition when I was composing from a tall tripod over a fenceline. Can close the display so it is not tempting me to chimp.
- Pop up flash has good power. I cut a strip of plastic from a milk jug, put it in very hot water and bent it to fit over the flash. Secure with rubber bands and you have a softer flash.
Cons:
- Noise at high ISO. Was happy with it's ability to image indoors without flash until I looked at the noise in the images with ISO > 2,000. I shouldn't have expected more, but now that I know, I will be much more careful about using AutoISO.
- Size (double edged sword)- Camera is a little small for my largish hands. Looking at getting the accessory battery pack.
- B&H makes it so easy to find all the great accessories for this camera that my budget went right out the window.

I bought the camera for a couple purposes.
The first was to have a higher MP than my Rebel XT so my girlfriend and I could blow up the high res photos to 12"x12", which my 8MP XT just couldn't do (at least not at print quality with any sort of cropping). For this, the T3i performs admirably. I thought the increased ISO settings would allow better low light shots when set to manual, but I was a little dissapointed with its performance in that regard unfortunately.
The second reason we picked this camera was that we wanted a camera with HD video. The video is okay, but lighting in a huge factor, as always. There is no built in video lighting, which we didn't consider when we bought it. I guess we assumed there must be an LED or something. There isn't. You have to buy Speedlight Flash with LED as an addon, which we didn't have to money for at this point. Too bad I guess.

Comments about Canon EOS Rebel T3i Digital Camera (Body Only):
I purchased this camera to use in my online classes at the Art Institute of Pittsburgh. So far, it is working quite well. We have to shoot everything on manual settings, so I haven't had much time to experiment with everything this camera has to offer. Hopefully I can make time soon to do that.

Comments about Canon EOS Rebel T3i Digital Camera (Body Only):
I use this camera for photo and video and it excels in both areas. Although it isn't as amazing taking video as more expensive canon models like the 5D, with the new lower price point (with the release of the T4i) it still creates exceptionally beautiful video with good lighting. I use it mostly for interviews and slider shots with video, and to pick up pictures to add into video later as a camera. I honestly can't think of another DSLR I would get as this price point and be this happy with. It really is just a solid camera and worth the money.

Comments about Canon EOS Rebel T3i Digital Camera (Body Only):
I had been using a Cannon 50D for several years doing events and wildlife. It started giving me problems, and since I am now retired, decided to look for a lighter; more compact camera that would accept my lenses. I could not decide between a T4i and a T3i. I contacted B&H explaining that I am not interested in video. They recommended the T3i.
I've been using this camera for two weeks, and I can only describe it in one word, "FANTASTIC!"
I was afraid that being used to the controls of the 50D that I would have a hard time adapting to those of the T3i. I find the controls to be laid out in a very logical and user-friendly pattern.
The image quality is excellent. I can hardly notice noise at ISO 3200. I have been playing with the automatic features, and although I may not use them often, they yield fantastic images. Though I'm not interested in video, I tried the video function, and found it to be easy to use and great quality. The build quality is solid. I do not feel like I'm holding a toy.
I would recommend this camera to anyone looking for a well-built DSLR that takes awesome images, is lightweight and easy to use.
I have put the difference in the purchase price between the two bodies toward buying a Cannon 18 – 85mm lens which is due to arrive on Tuesday. Thank you, B&H, for your honest; reliable service.

Comments about Canon EOS Rebel T3i Digital Camera (Body Only):
My oldest daughter just graduated from college and this is a graduation gift for a job well done. She just got her first iPhone her Senior year and started taking a ton of photos. She prefers things to be simple, easy and low profile. I was surprised somewhat when she told me she wanted a DSLR body. This is a great "first camera" for the college graduate. She is headed off for four years of graduate studies and then will live in a tribal culture to do translation work. She wanted a camera--more substantial than a top of the line point and shoot--to take better photos to document her work and travels. I'm donating some of my old lenses and accessories to get her started.
This is not a professional grade camera: it is not built like a brick and is not fully sealed from moisture and dust. I personally prefer a large, heavy camera body with a battery grip that is fully sealed. This camera body is more along the lines of a soccer mom's camera in that it is lighter weight and on the petite side. Because of the lighter weight build quality I don't think this will be her last camera body, but it sure is an excellent launching point for an incredible daughter. I can't wait to see all her photos documenting her adventures around the world.

This camera is certainly a wonderful purchase. I bought it 15 days before my trip to Hawaii and was nervous that I wouldn't have time to learn all of the features before the flight, but it is so easy to learn!! The picture quality is most excellent very clear with minimal noise. I love it!!!

Comments about Canon EOS Rebel T3i Digital Camera (Body Only):
I own the t2i and just recently replaced the shutter and so I bought the t3i for my wife and she loves it.
The grip is different, feels better in my hand than the t2i, and the image quality is the same. Crop sensor or not, if you place a fast 1.2 or 1.4 or 1.8 lens on this camera you can get close to professional looking shots out of the box.
Hope this helps.

Looking for a dual purose video/still camera this was the perfect choice. I've been out of the stills "game" for a while but needing a camera to shoot video I chose this over Nikon. With the addition of ML, you can't ask for a better set up under several [$]. With the ease of set up and a fast learning curve it's great for beginners as well. A leader in the pack.

Comments about Canon EOS Rebel T3i Digital Camera (Body Only):
I bought the T3I because I wanted to get better results than I was getting from my point and shoot ELF. Canon has some great rebates when you buy the camera, 2 lenses and the Pro-100 printer. The gear is outstanding. Pictures are fantastic as is the printer quality. I did not pay attention to the foot print of the printer had, and was surprised at the size when it arrived. It's a monster at almost 50 lbs. The rebate is work but worth it. I will be getting $300 in gift cards which gets my purchase price down to where the printer is practically free compared to buying all the pieces localy.

This is my first DSLR after giving up my film SLR probably a decade ago. I use it for family pictures and general photography. The camera is wonderfully easy to use, with lots of ability. Controlling it is a learning process.
Pros:
- Lots of options that are easily accessible.
- Large display. Having aging eyes, I can still read and set most of the menus without my readers.
- Canon system- enough said.
- Lightweight- easy to carry around.
- Size- have a small 5.11 kit bag that holds the camera, Sigma 18-200 zoom, Canon 50mm lens, 320EX flash, Stroboframe folding flash bracket, and insundry accessories. Doesn't scream steal me.
- Images- WOW. Upgrading from a 6mp Lumix was very nice.
- RAW images- makes post processing easier. I no longer feel like I am fighting against the camera.
- Layout- Controls are laid out nicely. Swiveling display was a wonderful addition when I was composing from a tall tripod over a fenceline. Can close the display so it is not tempting me to chimp.
- Pop up flash has good power. I cut a strip of plastic from a milk jug, put it in very hot water and bent it to fit over the flash. Secure with rubber bands and you have a softer flash.
Cons:
- Noise at high ISO. Was happy with it's ability to image indoors without flash until I looked at the noise in the images with ISO > 2,000. I shouldn't have expected more, but now that I know, I will be much more careful about using AutoISO.
- Size (double edged sword)- Camera is a little small for my largish hands. Looking at getting the accessory battery pack.
- B&H makes it so easy to find all the great accessories for this camera that my budget went right out the window.

I bought the camera for a couple purposes.
The first was to have a higher MP than my Rebel XT so my girlfriend and I could blow up the high res photos to 12"x12", which my 8MP XT just couldn't do (at least not at print quality with any sort of cropping). For this, the T3i performs admirably. I thought the increased ISO settings would allow better low light shots when set to manual, but I was a little dissapointed with its performance in that regard unfortunately.
The second reason we picked this camera was that we wanted a camera with HD video. The video is okay, but lighting in a huge factor, as always. There is no built in video lighting, which we didn't consider when we bought it. I guess we assumed there must be an LED or something. There isn't. You have to buy Speedlight Flash with LED as an addon, which we didn't have to money for at this point. Too bad I guess.

Comments about Canon EOS Rebel T3i Digital Camera (Body Only):
This camera is the best for beginners. It is totally user friendly, the presets are perfect for someone just getting started, and to learn the shutter, aperture and ISO are very easy, just takes practice. After about a month of learning this camera, you'll be handling it with ease!

Comments about Canon EOS Rebel T3i Digital Camera (Body Only):
I purchased this camera to use in my online classes at the Art Institute of Pittsburgh. So far, it is working quite well. We have to shoot everything on manual settings, so I haven't had much time to experiment with everything this camera has to offer. Hopefully I can make time soon to do that.

Comments about Canon EOS Rebel T3i Digital Camera (Body Only):
I use this camera for photo and video and it excels in both areas. Although it isn't as amazing taking video as more expensive canon models like the 5D, with the new lower price point (with the release of the T4i) it still creates exceptionally beautiful video with good lighting. I use it mostly for interviews and slider shots with video, and to pick up pictures to add into video later as a camera. I honestly can't think of another DSLR I would get as this price point and be this happy with. It really is just a solid camera and worth the money.

Comments about Canon EOS Rebel T3i Digital Camera (Body Only):
I had been using a Cannon 50D for several years doing events and wildlife. It started giving me problems, and since I am now retired, decided to look for a lighter; more compact camera that would accept my lenses. I could not decide between a T4i and a T3i. I contacted B&H explaining that I am not interested in video. They recommended the T3i.
I've been using this camera for two weeks, and I can only describe it in one word, "FANTASTIC!"
I was afraid that being used to the controls of the 50D that I would have a hard time adapting to those of the T3i. I find the controls to be laid out in a very logical and user-friendly pattern.
The image quality is excellent. I can hardly notice noise at ISO 3200. I have been playing with the automatic features, and although I may not use them often, they yield fantastic images. Though I'm not interested in video, I tried the video function, and found it to be easy to use and great quality. The build quality is solid. I do not feel like I'm holding a toy.
I would recommend this camera to anyone looking for a well-built DSLR that takes awesome images, is lightweight and easy to use.
I have put the difference in the purchase price between the two bodies toward buying a Cannon 18 – 85mm lens which is due to arrive on Tuesday. Thank you, B&H, for your honest; reliable service.

Comments about Canon EOS Rebel T3i Digital Camera (Body Only):
My oldest daughter just graduated from college and this is a graduation gift for a job well done. She just got her first iPhone her Senior year and started taking a ton of photos. She prefers things to be simple, easy and low profile. I was surprised somewhat when she told me she wanted a DSLR body. This is a great "first camera" for the college graduate. She is headed off for four years of graduate studies and then will live in a tribal culture to do translation work. She wanted a camera--more substantial than a top of the line point and shoot--to take better photos to document her work and travels. I'm donating some of my old lenses and accessories to get her started.
This is not a professional grade camera: it is not built like a brick and is not fully sealed from moisture and dust. I personally prefer a large, heavy camera body with a battery grip that is fully sealed. This camera body is more along the lines of a soccer mom's camera in that it is lighter weight and on the petite side. Because of the lighter weight build quality I don't think this will be her last camera body, but it sure is an excellent launching point for an incredible daughter. I can't wait to see all her photos documenting her adventures around the world.

This camera is certainly a wonderful purchase. I bought it 15 days before my trip to Hawaii and was nervous that I wouldn't have time to learn all of the features before the flight, but it is so easy to learn!! The picture quality is most excellent very clear with minimal noise. I love it!!!
