Remember the Essentials

A memory card is not included with the camera.
Get a high-capacity memory card so you don't get caught without memory. 

The Canon EOS Rebel T3i Digital Camera Kit provides you with the T3i body and a Canon EF-S 18-55mm IS II lens. You'll be ready to shoot from day one with this set-up. Just charge the included LP-E8 battery pack and pop in an SD/SDHC/SDXC memory card and you're ready to start making photos! And should you want to expand your selection of lenses for the T3i, all Canon EF and EF-S lenses are compatible.

The Rebel line of DSLR cameras has long been known as a value in photography, focusing on the advanced amateur, student, and all those looking to go beyond what their point-and-shoot lets them do, to stretch and test the limits of their creativity; all while not breaking the bank.

With an 18MP CMOS (APS-C) sensor and Canon's DIGIC 4 Image Processor the T3i captures beautiful, high resloution 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 12,800. 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 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

This camera has been everything I hoped for and more.

As a semi-professional videographer and film maker, I bought it to shoot video but have found myself shooting pics non-stop in the last three weeks. Probably up to about a thousand so far.

I was showing my wife pictures of a hotel I took and made into a slideshow and joked about how long it had taken me to do it. Almost a minute. She assumed I had pulled it off of the hotel's professional website. And that's just with the on-camera flash.

I got the 18-55, the 55-250 and the 50 1.8. I know it's bottom end glass but I've been MORE than pleased. Once I got used to the manual controls I was going crazy with art shots. I've done digitally manipulated photography gallery showings before and I KNOW I'll be doing them again - except this time it won't be all landscapes and architecture. The APS-C sensor allows for so much more creativity than even the best superzoom, bells and whistles point and shoot out there. I love my old Canon Powershot S3is for the zoom, but the T3i is just in a different class.

So if you are just taking snapshots, this will give you GREAT snapshots. If you're wanting to take creative, professional quality photos on a budget, this is the camera for you as well.

As for video, I've played around a little bit and been happy so far. I've used the 5D mkII and it didn't take long to switch over to the T3i. Will be shooting a television pilot on it in the next month and expect great things out of it based on what I've seen the last three weeks.

Oh, almost forgot the best thing about it - the variangle screen. Don't even think about the T2i. Get the swivel screen. Shooting out of the poorly placed and tiny window in a gondola over a waterfall was SOOO much easier with the screen. It makes a lot of other things easier, like video, as well.

Caviats - the auto focus using the back screen in live view mode is painful. For stills I much prefer the viewfinder. (Unless I'm doing something terribly wrong.)

Get an extra battery. Spend the money on a Canon so it'll tell you how much life you have left. Stick it in your pocket or bag. They're really small and cheap compared to missing half a day's worth of shooting your kids in the park. Also buy a big SD card. See reason above. :-)

I have the 18-55 and 55-250 lenses. You may find yourself swithcing lenses a lot if you want to zoom in on anything. The 18-55 is great for normal photos or anything up close but dosn't have the zoom range needed to reach out and grab a distance shot. The 55-250 is too long for anything close up. I was at a BBQ and the range I wanted to shoot was right in between. Just food for thought.

If you really want to do action sports the shutter speed is too low. It was an improvement over my old camera but you won't honestly be able to do a lot of sports or action with this. Surveillence maybe - action no. One shot per spin around the carrousel I'm afraid.

Magic Lantern ulnocks all kinds of features from some Canon DSLR cameras. The most important features for me are the disabling of Auto Gain Control and the ability to monitor sound out of the camera.

At this point the Magic Lantern firmware does not fully support these functions for T3i. Which means the audio quality will be poor.

I returned the T3i as soon as I realized. B7H graciously accepted it back. And I immediately bought a T2i instead. I have to do without the flip out screen but get all kinds of extra Magic Lantern features instead.

At this point I suggest buying T2i over T3i.

    Comments about Canon EOS Rebel T3i Digital Camera Kit:

    I got the T3i for video... this camera has feature that made it hands down the favorite over the 7D my director/producer was using. The swivel screen was huge; the colors were consistently amazing in available light; the only drawback would be... save up for the Canon EF-S 17-55mm f/2.8 IS USM Lens. I will be buying another T3i and 3 of the above lenses from B&H. Great service and information! Thanks!

      I haven't had it for long, but I can already tell the controls are intuitive, the interface is great, and the pictures taken so far impress greatly.

      I wish I had gotten a body-only and invested in a super zoom for walking around, but I'll have to make due with the kit for now.

        this is my first DSLR, and although it takes some practice to get great results, you quickly pick it up. the following are reasons for buying this camera if your new to DSLRs.
        1) great price
        2) amazing HD video quality
        3) small & light weight.
        4) 18-350mm f/3.5 lens is decent at most things, but not great. if you want to shoot in low light, you will need to get a lens with high aperture.
        5) if your'e a pro, this camera is probably not for you, but as an entry level camera it gives HD quality video and photos just like the pros.
        6) battery life could be better, but it is not such a big deal.

        Belive it or not, this camera has a 325 page manual, that is how much stuff this camera can do. I have not used the video yet, so can't respond to it, but the camera has been a lot of fun to learn. It has proven to be a great investment so far. I am using it with the 18-55 lens it came with which doesn't have a macro but I have an extension tube that is making up for that somewhat.

          I bought this camera for my boyfriend for his 22nd birthday. He absolutely loves it. It's taking some time to learn everything it does but that's the beauty of it. This was the perfect gift for someone who appreciates photography and has a hobby of it. He really loves being able to take amazing pictures. The service on B&H was amazing and it made it so easy. I'd recommend this camera and this company to buy it from.

                  I'm a photo student and bought this camera to get me through the rest of school and maybe beyond. So far, I think it will be perfect! I love the flip out view screen. Helps me frame shots at low angles that I'd otherwise have to lie on the ground to take. The only problem I've had in my first month of having the camera is that when I am using the screen rather than the viewfinder, it doesn't autofocus as easily. Really not a huge problem though since I use manual most of the time.

                    The Camera is nice and it works great.. The Camera is good for both Video and Photographs. I use the camera for natural and wildlife photographs. It has both Manual and automatic control over the Video. The thing i don't like is, it doesn't work good when you capture images in the dark

                        This is my first SLR camera and it's fantastic. I researched a bunch of different brands and models before settling on this one. It was consistently chosen as one of the top starter SLR cameras and I have to agree. It's everything it was advertised to be.

                        I will be using this camera to film a documentary on dance music. Some features that are great is that in the type of lighting that one finds in a dark club at night, this Rebel T3i works amazingly. It is even able to take a beautiful still shot WHILE VIDEO TAPING !!! This causes a frame rate to be skipped, yet it is still a very awesome feature. This is an extremely smart & diverse camera. The only prob one may have is the feel of filming with the "box-type" feeling one has while handling the camera. Reason being, it is held like a 35 mm camera and not a handheld camcorder. Other than that, one just has to get used of the feel....overall it is an AWESOME BUY !!!!!!!

                                  I am a novice photographer, but bought this camera to get high quality pictures of our baby daughter. The fast shutter speed helps capture the quick and often fleeting emotions that are so hard to catch on a standard point and shoot. The articulating LCD screen is also quite useful. There are a lot of features I've yet to explore but am thoroughly happy just from a basic ease of use and great image quality standpoint.
