I need a SLR camera and this is an efficient one providing both automatic and manual functions. The larger LCD panel and video features are an improvement over my previously owned Canon Rebel

Easy To Use; Fast / Accurate Auto-Focus; Fast Shutter Speed; Good Image Quality; Large Clear LCD

Short Battery Life

Great starter SLR camera. Has all the features you would need. Recommend an extra SD card to prevent missing out on pictures. All in all great camera.

Good for indoor out door photos. Has flash attachment. Battery indicator. Focus lens. close up features.

Great Photos

Does not work with iphoto

With the introduction of the T3, Canon lists no fewer than six Rebel cameras in their total DSLR pool of thirteen models. The T3 fits into this hierarchy near the bottom of the pile with an MSRP of only $50 more than the cheapest model, the Rebel XS.

Good image quality; Nice JPEG burst mode; Great at high ISO

No video continuous AF; Smaller monitor; AF times not class-leading

It is just like teaching A,B,C,D to a nursery kid. It has self explanable features, which tells u what is the use of the particular feature. But it is quite noisy, when it comes to clicking pics in a silent area. The display resolution could have been better.

The 1100D can also shoot at a handy 3fps useful for capturing everyone looking and smiling in a big group of family members or for capturing a fast moment without the possibility of potentially missing the shot.

We almost felt like Sookie Stackhouse in HBO's True Blood . We closed our eyes and the next thing we knew, a year was gone. In this case we didn't travel in "fairy space time," but blinked and Canon sent out a replacement for the XS and XSi DSLRs.

As the entry point to Canon's DSLR range, the 1100D sits below the older yet still available 550D and the more recent 600D as a sort of bare-bones version of these more advanced entry-level models.

Image quality; Relatively user-friendly; Cheapest entry-point to Canon DSLR system

Plastic finish feels a bit cheap; No rubberisation on grip; Contrast-detect live view AF is slow

Canon's EOS 1100D enters the market as a stripped down version of its more expensive siblings, the 550D and 600D. Banking on its genetic lineage, it hopes to stand on its own with less perks and a matching lower price tag.

With Micro Four Thirds models and other mirrorless digital cameras growing in popularity, the digital SLR market has gotten some stiff competition. The category continues to push forward, though, and Canon, which has not yet manufactured a compact interchangeable lens camera, offers up the EOS Rebel...

Very fast; Good low-light performance

Body feels underbuilt; Similarly priced Micro Four Thirds cameras offer better performance in smaller bodies; Live View LCD suffers from painfully slow focus; Poor focusing in movie mode
