The Canon EOS Rebel T2i DSLR Camera is Canon’s newer consumer DSLR camera. It is aimed at people that want to have professional features, and the ability to do about anything the pros can but still be affordable at the cost of a few things they probably would never need or care about. This camera will probably be the next one that I get the chance to test out, and I am kind of excited because I have been overly focused on cameras like this or this for so long that I make things to complicated in my photography.

This camera has a lot of great features. Video, 18 MP, great ISO range, almost 4 fps shooting speed, small and lightweight size, and the SD card slot. Overall this camera is a great deal, especially if you don’t really need weather protection (who lets their camera sit in the rain anyway?), ultra fast shooting (yes 3.7 fps is fast, I mean like 8 or 10 fps), and a super fast focusing system (one that only very expereinced shooters would be able to even make use of, the focusing system in this baby is very good compared to almost any camera out there).
There are very few negatives to this camera. The people that find problems with this camera are likely just in need of a more advanced camera features and a much lighter wallet. You can do incredible things with this camera. The few things I listed above are likely the only real negatives about this camera and I honestly believe that very few photographers will ever be able to make use of those more advanced features in a more expensive camera. The only real difference for people going for the more expensive cameras will likely be not in the resulting pictures, but in their wallet!
So this camera gets my recommendation because it gives you more than enough features to keep many professional happy for a long time, at a price that probably won’t break anyone’s wallet who is trying to take photography a bit more seriously.
