But when comparing the T3i vs T2i, is the T3i worth the extra cost? For some people it will be; for others it will be a waste of money. The table below shows the functional similarities. From the outside, the only major difference is the rear LCD. To accommodate the new LCD, the body is slightly deeper, and the whole unit weighs a hair more.
Canon has also made some minor ergonomic changes, such as adding additional rubberized padding to bottom of the front left side of the body for extra comfort and protection. If you have used a 35mm film camera in the past and are simply looking to get a digital camera to do the same things, the T2i is probably for you.
Some photographers have also expressed concern about the articulated LCD of the T3i and 60D collecting dust or breaking off; and for those who work in rugged conditions, this may also be worth considering.
If the automatic modes and In-Camera-Guide in the T3i are a deciding factor for you, though, you might alternatively consider a photography book, or better yet, enrollment in a photography course or seminar. Not only will it give you a better understanding of your camera and photographic theory, it may dramatically improve your photography in a dozen other ways.

We have a business supplier for computer products which as very good prices. They also have a hodgepodge of cameras, not even the newest models, at higher than usual prices. Not sure why it makes sense to have that in their offerings, but it is there, maybe for businesses that want whole packages, and don't want the hassle of sourcing from many places just to find the cheapest price for each item.
One might also add, that some of these businesses have obligations to provide spare parts, service parts for up to 10 years. Prices for such items can be ridiculously high.
Once I looked for a spare harddrive for a server, and if you wanted to original drive it was many times more expensive than a newer larger drive. But in some computer configurations you may be stuck with getting the same or similar model with no choice, so you have to pay the premium for such service parts.
The T2i has not yet been discontinued. It is still for sale on Canon's website for the exact same price as the T3i. The OP is correct. The T2i has been priced at, or most usually above, the price of the T3i all year.
Canon US must have some left over stock. American market is different. Seems also the only place where they offer the old EF as kit with, e. When it drops off Canon's current cameras you will see the price go up even further. For example, search for the Canon G10 camera on Amazon. You will see its price being twice that of the current model. A paradox of the market. When T2i launched it was a very strong offering and got some rave reviews.
Same sensor as 7D, much more usable video, and a number of other improvements made it a huge step up from T1i. T3i launched against much stiffer competition, and was a rather lukewarm update to T2i, so reviews were a lot less glowing. Someone doing rather superficial research might easily get an impression that T2i is actually the better camera.
Is it worth the hefty price tag? We take a look at the Cine, the high-end model in this series. The Nikon Z9 is the company's first camera to feature a stacked CMOS sensor, which brings a raft of new features, including blazing speed and autofocus performance to the Z lineup. Click through for our detailed first impressions of Nikon's latest professional ILC. The Sony a7 IV is the fourth generation of the company's core a7 full-frame mirrorless camera model, and it's the most advanced yet.
Then, after the new model is out, very good deals can frequently be found on the pre-owned market. The size of the sensor inside a digital camera is one of the key determinants of image quality. A large sensor will tend to have larger individual pixels that provide better low-light sensitivity, wider dynamic range , and richer color-depth than smaller pixel-units in a sensor of the same technological generation.
Furthermore, a large sensor camera will give the photographer more possibilities to use shallow depth-of-field in order to isolate a subject from the background. On the downside, larger sensors tend to be more expensive and lead to bigger and heavier cameras and lenses. Both cameras under consideration feature an APS-C sensor and have a format factor sometimes also referred to as "crop factor" of 1.
Within the spectrum of camera sensors, this places the review cameras among the medium-sized sensor cameras that aim to strike a balance between image quality and portability. Both cameras have a native aspect ratio sensor width to sensor height of The two cameras under review do not only share the same sensor size, but also offer an identical resolution of This similarity in sensor specs implies that both the T2i and the T3i have the same pixel density, as well as the same pixel size.
It should, however, be noted that the T3i is a somewhat more recent model by 11 months than the T2i, and its sensor might have benefitted from technological advances during this time.
Since , DXO Mark has published sensor performance measurements that have been derived using a consistent methodology. The Overall DXO ratings for the two cameras under consideration are close, suggesting that they provide similar imaging performance. The adjacent table reports on the physical sensor characteristics and the outcomes of the DXO sensor quality tests for a sample of comparator-cameras.
Many modern cameras are not only capable of taking still images, but can also record movies. Apart from body and sensor, cameras can and do differ across a range of features. The T2i and the T3i are similar in the sense that both have an optical viewfinder. The latter is useful for getting a clear image for framing even in brightly lit environments. The adjacent table lists some of the other core features of the Canon T2i and Canon T3i along with similar information for a selection of comparators.
For some imaging applications, the extent to which a camera can communicate with its environment can be an important aspect in the camera decision process. Although the T3i is a more recent model, it is virtually identical to the T2i in most other respects including image quality and lens. SLR deals on Amazon. The ability to rotate the LCD monitor is a big advantage for the T3i. It makes it easier to take some tricky shots from unconventional angles.
When shooting video, the T3i allows you to feed in the audio from a microphone. This is can be a big advantage if you use the camera for video recording. The T3i offers up to 10x digital zoom for video however the quality degrades after about 3x. The T2i does not have a digital zoom feature for video. The T2i SLR camera has a huge advantage in terms of startup delay.
Compared to the T3i, which has a startup delay of ms, the T2i has a delay of only ms.
