Remember the Essentials
A lens and memory card are not included with the camera.
Get the type of lens for the shot you need, and a high-capacity memory card so you don't get caught without memory.
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.
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
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

"Rebel" says consumer camera. Uncle Bob or Aunt Sue's camera they picked up at the big box store and shoot on green-square auto with the kit lens and pop-up flash. Serious photographers don't use a Rebel. They use at least a 60D, right? If not a 7D or 5DII? That's what I thought, and it was with much skepticism that I ordered it here. For about the same price, I was deciding between a 60D, used 50D, even used 5DI. By all accounts, the sensor on the 7D is great, and I kept coming back to the fact that the T3i (and T2i and 60D) have the same one. If Canon hadn't neutered the 60D and taken off lens micro-adjustments and better body, that might have been the choice for the extra money. However, the differences between the 60D and T3i were pretty negligible, so the Rebel was the choice. (If the T2i could control external speedlights, that might have won out.) Anyway, the box came in the mail and in big bold red letters it practically shouted, REBEL. My long-awaited camera upgrade was to a .....Rebel? Sigh. But I opened it and have been blown away by the performance. This is a serious camera.
I had been using an Xti for 4+ years, and in good light with good lenses, it can take excellent photos. The T3i is better in every way. Faster, much better in low light, better screen, better features... The auto ISO (where you can set the max) and highlight tone priority in particular are very helpful.
I'm very happy I upgraded to the new Reb... ahem, to the T3i. Or better yet, the 600D. Yeah, that's it. I shoot with the 600D. And I love it.
Note: The 5-star review reflects the price of the camera. Would I rather have a 7D or 5DII? Absolutely. But they are 2x and 3x the price. For best bang-for-the buck, it's the T3i.

Pro's: takes images that are near quality to my EOS 7D, smaller body than a 7D, lighter than the 7D, good for a beginner photographer, the innards are quite good for the price when compared to the 7D, good to take on trips thanks to the weight and size.
Con's: seems flimsy and cheap, I would not want to drop this camera body, it's louder than my 7D, a bit slower at taking a shot, there is no handy toggle for browsing quickly.
I bought this as a back up camera, it will stay a back up camera. If the body were more sturdy, I would have liked it better.

Comments about Canon EOS Rebel T3i Digital Camera (Body Only):
I bought this camera body to replace my older Rebel XS. I use my camera primarily for personal use, though I do a limited amount of paid work also. I am a Canadian customer, and I appreciated being able to pay for customs fees and duty at the time of ordering. Knowing exactly how much it was going to cost from the beginning is important to me. Shipping costs were surprisingly low for an international delivery, and I was pleasantly surprised at how quickly it was delivered. I placed my order on Thursday afternoon, and it was delivered the following Tuesday via Purolator.
The camera arrived well packaged and undamaged. The camera itself is fantastic, a real step up from my old XS model.... faster, quieter, and the camrea body is heavier and feels more solid in my hands. Excited about the HD video capabilities, and the articulating LCD has already come in useful for grabbing some low-to-the-floor video of the kids.
I also have to add that I was at first disappointed to find that the Canon warranty would not be applicable in Canada, but was thrilled with the Sagemax 3-year warranty option. It was very reasonably priced, and includes accidental damages (which the Canon warranty does not). After paying shipping, duty/customs fees, and adding the 3 year warranty, I still saved over $300 on the cost of buying this camera body locally!

Comments about Canon EOS Rebel T3i Digital Camera (Body Only):
The EOS Rebel T3i is my first SLR. I am extremely happy with my purchase. I was told by more experienced photographers that it has the same sensor as the higher end Canon SLRs. I chose it over the T3 because it has the articulating LCD screen, which comes in very handy when I'm shooting from awkward angles. I chose the body only, because I was advised to invest in the better lenses as they will likely outlast the camera.

Comments about Canon EOS Rebel T3i Digital Camera (Body Only):
The T3i is hands down the best camera you can get for your money and if you are a casual or beginning photographer! Compared to the Nikon D5100 (same target customer base) it is much more inexpensive and has very similar specs.
Has a great tilt/swivel LCD screen which even the more expensive Canon 7D does not have! Great for taking ground level shots where the viewfinder is not an option.

I was a Canon user until my T90 was stolen. Went to a Minolta Film Camera and then upgraded to there Digital and was never happy with it. Finally was able to upgrade back to Canon and so glad I did. I love everything about the T3i and will not buy any other camera but canon again.

This is a gift to someone else, and they love it. The Rebel allows for high quality professional looking photos. I am a wildlife photograher, and take a lot of pictures.

Comments about Canon EOS Rebel T3i Digital Camera (Body Only):
I just switched from the T2i to the T3i because of the articulated screen and added format sizes, 3:2, 1:1 & 16:90). If it were not for the articulated screen I probably would not have switched, but macros are my forte and this is a big plus. I have noticed that images are not as sharp as the T2i and are noticably softer out of the camera with the same settings.

I've always had a camera of 1 type or another but over the past 5 years I've owned 2 DSLRs; The Rebel XTi and my Brand New EOS Rebel T3i. Not only am I pleased with the increased Megapixels, I,m very excited that Cannon has included the HD video recorder with a Vari-angle 3.0-inch LCD monitor! A 2 in 1 multi-functional camera, and for the price, fantastic too!

Comments about Canon EOS Rebel T3i Digital Camera (Body Only):
I finally made the transition from film SLR to digital SLR and while I would prefer to have a full CMOS DSLR the price range is still too steep. I did plenty of research and feel the features to price ratio for the Canon EOS Rebel 3Ti makes it a fantastic deal. I also purchased the EF-S 17-55mm f/2.8 IS USM lens and the Speedlite 580EX II flash. I have taken limited pictures so far with the camera but in a wide variety of conditions and have been pleased with the results.

Comments about Canon EOS Rebel T3i Digital Camera (Body Only):
This is a powerful little package If you are into video this is a great first or second camera for still and video. I uses to shoot high speedsequences at 50 frames / sec. What a bargain for [$], plus I can use all my L lens and get a nice boos in magnification!

Comments about Canon EOS Rebel T3i Digital Camera (Body Only):
I mainly shoot video so this camera for the price was a no brainer. I also can use the older film lenses with a cheap adapter for low light movie making. I like buying the body only to save for the really good L lenses.

Comments about Canon EOS Rebel T3i Digital Camera (Body Only):
This is a very good camera, light, compact, with easily accessible controls. The quality of the pictures is comparable to my much more expensive 5 D. Forr the money it is a high value, and for most photographers will do everything that they could want.The LCD screen is difficult to see in bright light, a drawback, but overall, I'm very pleased with the purchase.

Comments about Canon EOS Rebel T3i Digital Camera (Body Only):
Having used the 60D extensively, I had good expectations for the T3i, and it lived up to most of them. The speed is very good, it actually focuses much faster than my much more expensive Nikon D7000. A bit larger than the Nikon D5100 it competes with, but somewhat easier to use. Delivers very good 18 megapixel images at ISO 100, with absolutely no noise. A bit noisy when you crank the ISO up (both mentioned Nikons are better here). Nice swiveling display, great for awkward angles. The major drawback to me was the fact that it doesn't autofocus once you started a movie. The advantages of the 60D to me would be the fact that it offers wireless flash, is a bit faster, and autofocuses while doing movies. If none of those matter to you, and you intend to take pictures mostly at low ISO (nature) the Canon Rebel T3i is indeed a very good camera at a reasonable price.

Comments about Canon EOS Rebel T3i Digital Camera (Body Only):
After using Canon's G Series camera for many years, I decided to upgrade to A DSLR. I purchased Canon's T3i body along with a Canon EF-S 15mm-85mm lens, and for the type of shooting I do (primaraly grandchildren and holidays) the combination has been fantastic. I am still amazed and the quality of the prints that were shot using a high ISO. In addition, I also purchased a Lowepro Nova 170 sholder bag which has been a perfect choice for the camera and lens, along with room for charger, SD cards, extra batteries, flash, and small tripod.
