subject: Canon Rebel T2i Tops The Ratings - This Digital Slr Has It All [print this page] When you are looking to buy a digital SLR camera, what is your number one priority? Whatever it is, the Canon Rebel T2i will have it.
With each new release in the Rebel line, Canon has set higher standards for entry level digital single lens reflex cameras. Now that the Canon Rebel T2i has been offered for a few months, the other manufacturers must be hunkered down in their "brainstorming conference rooms" trying to figure out how they can compete with this awe-inspiring camera. This is good news for photographers everyplace, because photography equipment will be rising to new heights.
Back to the question at hand. What are you looking for? Here are just a few of the questions that have the exact same answer, and that answer is the Canon Rebel T2i.
Is great image quality your top priority?
Former models have all had excellent image quality, but this one has raised the level to a higher notch, just about equal to cameras that are more than twice as much money. Even when bumping the ISO setting to the greatest levels, where image quality has been questionable in the past, this one delivers really high quality prints.
Is HD video the thing you consider your top feature?
This is the feature that first drew all the attention. HD video at 1024p and 24 or 30 frames per second is tops in the field, no matter how much money you invest in a digital SLR camera.
Is attaching the very best lenses available the thing that draws you to a digital SLR?
We're talkin' SLR here. Choosing your lens is one of the reasons a photographer chooses this type of camera. With this unit, almost all Canon lenses will be suitable to attach, and many manufacturers such as Tamron and Sigma make lenses for it as well.
Live View is one of the newest additions to digital SLR cameras. Is Live View your top priority?
The version of Live View in the Canon Rebel T2i is new and improved. You can use it for superior composition and control functions on the fly.
Quite a few manufacturers have digital SLR cameras for under $1000. Are you interested in the very best camera in that cost range?
Even though personal opinions are just that, opinions, the camera magazines and online review sites are pretty much unified in acclaiming the Canon T2i as the "Best Rebel Yet". Sub $1000 cost is a huge bargain for this awesome camera. Although it is considered an entry level Digital SLR, it has the features set of cameras which are much more expensive.
Main point here: The Canon Rebel T2i has a compelling set of features that are gaining popularity in every arena where photographers gather.
