Canon Rebel T3 (EOS 1100D) Review
These days it's hard to tell the entry level cameras apart from the fully geared up models. The Canon Rebel T3 (EOS 1100D) sits between the EOS 1000D and EOS 550D models, looking and feeling like any Canon DSLR, from the lofty 5D Mark II all the way down.

- Bracketing
- Great image quality on default settings
Cons:
- Can feel a little plastic-y compared to other entry-level cameras
- Only a 2.7-inch LCD screen
- No AF lock button
- No external microphone input

Improving on the 1000D, the Canon 1100D features a larger 12.2Mp APS-C 12.2Mp CMOS sensor and a 1.6x crop factor, meaning the 18-55mm kit lens is equivalent to 28.8-88mm in film terms.
