Canon 50mm f/2.8 I

Great Value to Cost. Very happy with it. This is a sweet spot for low cost with high quality and value. The T2i lacks the flip out capability for the view screen which was important to us. The 18 megapixels is high enough with the quality of the Canon lenses that I did not worry about that (more is better with a DSLR, but it wasn't priority for us). This unit takes great HD video, great stills and like all EOS Canon cameras, has access to tons of high quality lenses, including on the used market. Look for your own specific needs, but unless you need features like 24 megapixels, WiFi, and active refocus during video, there's no need to spend more. This unit will work super well for most photographers and at a low price.

"Lightweight with great features" The canon T3i is a great camera for those getting into the digital world of photography. It is light weight and has many features of the higher end digital cameras available. It is easy to use and takes great photographs using its Basic auto mode and for those who wish to be more creative, Canon offers its creative mode which allows the photographer the ability to control the shutter speed, aperture settings and iso settings. There are plenty of accessories available for this camera which will appeal to the photographer who owns this camera. With the appropriate memory card, the camera produces great videos. This feature will greatly appeal to those who do Vlogging on YouTube. I've been a tradition film photographer for over fifty years and I see this Canon T3i as a great tool for my art. As with any tool, it is only as good as the person using it.Read full review
