Canon EOS Rebel T2i Digital Camera Review

The Canon EOS Rebel T2i Digital Camera takes what was already a very good digital camera in the Canon EOS Rebel T1i and improves on the T1i even further improvements such as more megapixels, better low light sensitivity, and an improved movie mode that offers manual exposure control and Full HD video recording at 1920 x 1080 resolution.

Like the earlier T1i, the T2i comes in two different configurations: one with kit lens, and one configured as just the camera body only with no lens at all included. Today, I’m reviewing the Canon T2i with 18-55mm zoom lens, so you’re good to start shooting right out of the box. (except for adding digital camera memory)

And speaking of memory, the Canon T2i is now compatible wihth SDXC memory cards, offering more flexibility than possible with this new small and portable compact dslr from Canon.

At 18 megapixel of high resolution to work with, your creativity is in no way limited to the size of prints you can create with this small and compact shooter. 24×36 poster sized prints, or even bigger are a very real possibility with the new Canon T2i.

The included kit lens is a gem of a lens and includes image stabilization technology that’s built into the lens itself, and an 18-55mm zoom ratio is a flexible and very easy to use and handle zoom. The wide angle at 18mm is enough to get all the scenery in the frame when shooting lanscapes and it’s also a nice wide angle lens for photographing groups of all your family and friends. For this time of year the Canon EOS T2i would make an excellent gift for you new grad. They could capture all the memories of the graduating class and also have a very capable camera they could also take out with them in the workplace.

Using the new high speed digic IV sensor, this sensor is fast and has enough power and strength so you’re not waiting for the digital camera to catch up to you. Shutter lag is minimal, and focus is fast and sharp using the new technology.

For those that like to shoot outdoors at night or in low light situations, the ISO 6400 iso setting that’s expandable to ISO 12,8000 with the use of the enhanced 63 zone metering system will be pleased with the results. The Canon EOS T2i picks up on details that even the human eye misses in the dark.

A new 3 inch LCD display on the back of the Canon EOS T2i offers clear view technology for, well, a clear view of what you’re both shooting and reviewing later during playback. There’s also a new dedicated live view and shooting button on the back of the camera. No more fiddling with menu items when you wan to use live view or shoot a movie, which you can do with ease.

The Canon EOS T2i offers high megapixels, and functions as both a digital still camera and also a capable high definition video camera as well. It handles low light shooting with ease and is small and compact so you’ll actually want to carry it around with you all day.

The suggested list price on the Canon EOS T2i is listed for a retail price of $999, but you can get a better deal on the Canon EOS T2i and has a street price for less, and save over $100 on the Canon EOS REbel T2i. Click here for more Canon EOS T21 Reviews and the best price.
