Beware of digideals for less, I ordered this camera to give as a gift for a girl in the family and it turned out it was not the T3 but t5 without the blue folder on the lens. This is disappointing:(. Not what I had ordered.

This is a very good camera and the build quality is very good, yes the camera could be more solid but we are talking about a beginner camera and an entry level camera. I've shopped and did a lot of research and was very pleased on this camera what the pro's and real people were saying about it.

good battery life; excellent image quality; Simple controls/menu; easy to use

Missing features/settings; i would'nt say poor build quality but could be bet

I bought this camera for my nice who is studying filmmaking in Argentina. Easily unpacking and ready to use right away. Awesome video resolution, crispy image and great sound. This camera is very light and and easy to handle. Very happy for this purchase.

Light; easy to handle

Nothing just yet

I use the camera to take photos of musicians and scenery. It is easy to use and takes great photos. Wish the instructions were a little easier to follow but there are enough auxilliary publications to help.

Easy To Use; Fast / Accurate Auto-Focus; Fast Shutter Speed; Good Image Quality; Good Image Stabilization; High ISO Performance

Small LCD Screen

I like the ease in which to use the special feature knob.I also like the ease of downloading of pictures from the camera to the printer or computer and printing pctures as I select which them.

The camera information displayed on the rear screen is very helpful when shooting a special shot.

After using the camera it is hard to find a weakness

I picked up a used T3 on you know whos list for $200.00. It had 1007 shutter actuation's and looked and performed like new. I currently us a DMC g5 Lumix MFT 16mp and really like that one. I had recently sold a d5100 Nikon. I had read the T3 was a beginners SLR. I must disagree.

we love this camera it takes awesome pictures and is quite easy for any beginner to use with ease and no frustration. the battery life is pretty good and the pictures come out clear.

Easy to Use; Great Zoom; Fast Shutter Speed; Good Battery Life

Although this is a great camera and takes breath taking pictures, I did have one problem after 2 months of having this camera. I had a pixel burn out on it to where it showed a black spot in every picture. Luckily it is still under warranty to get it fixed because it has to do with the CMOS.
