Canon EOS Rebel T3i Hands-On Reviews:
The good:
The Canon EOS Rebel T3i delivers excellent video capabilities and image and video quality.
The bad:
If you shoot both still and video, the T3i's controls can be a little bit frustrating to operate, and it's not terribly fast for burst shooting sports, kids, or pets.
The bottom line:
For the money, the Canon EOS Rebel T3i is a great choice for dSLR videographers--though the cheaper T2i can still suffice if you don't need the articulated LCD--and it's a solid choice for creative still shooters. With a relatively affordable price, enthusiast-friendly features, and spectacular image quality, it's an easy Editors' Choice.
