High Resolution Still Capture New 15.1 Megapixel CMOS sensor with DIGIC 4 Image Processor for faster processing of fine detail and natural color reproduction, 14-bit A/D conversion for smooth color tones and gradations. Canon's CMOS (complementary metal oxide semiconductor) sensor captures images with exceptional clarity and tonal range and offers the most pixels in its class. It offers many of the same new technologies as used by Canon's professional cameras to maximize each pixel's light gathering efficiency. Its APS-C size sensor creates an effective 1.6x field of view (compared to 35mm format). Canon's DIGIC 4 Image Processor dramatically speeds up all camera operations for intuitive operation and offers improvements in both fine detail and natural color reproduction. It works in concert with the EOS Rebel T1i's image sensor to achieve unprecedented levels of performance in all lighting situations. DIGIC 4 Image Processor With the EOS Rebel T1i, analog to digital signal conversion is executed by a 14-bit processor, which generates digital data with incredibly smooth tones. A feature that originally appeared in top-of-the-line pro digital SLR cameras, the 14-bit conversion gives incredibly smooth transiti

    solid camera, 2010-08-17 This camera is so nice. It's going to last a long time. I am in high school (almost finished) and I love using the camera. It's a bit big and heavy, so it's not that easy to carry around. I use it around the house mostly but I've only had it for like a month. Obviously I am going to bring it on trips and stuff. But it is heavy. Also, the kit lens is not very good but I would say if you just want the camera, don't worry about all those other lenses. Buy them later and save your money now. The kit lens is adequate. I personally LOVE the video setting and would recommend this over the Nikon D5000 which is like the comparative Nikon one. I feel like this IS more expensive though. I guess you get what you pay for. Anyways, the video is high quality and allows for unlimited shooting, which is amazing. You just need to get a lot of memory card space. Soooo pretty (the video quality). I also love the navigation of the video. Read the manual because it helps understand the camera. It's actually like professional level. Real nice, I would recommend if you're looking to invest in a good, solid camera.
*Some more things
The ISO goes really really high which is perfect for low light. I got some BEAUTIFUL colorful pictures in the evening of my dog on the porch, and the photo looked even prettier than the porch/dog did in real life. The colors that turned out in the picture were blues, purples, pinks, and yellows, and it wasn't even that bright outside in real life. That is what a high ISO can do for you. I don't even worry about the supposed "noise" that happens when cameras use high ISO, because there is no noise on this.
Also, I went around to test the lens and noticed that it does close-up really nicely. You can get really close and see detail, which is my favorite part of photography. Therefore, again I would say just buy the kit lens because it's good.
Another thing about this camera is how it can pick up on colors that you might not have noticed in real life. For instance, once I turned on this pink lamp I have, and took a picture of something in the foreground (not the lamp), and saw that in the picture there was a pink glow from the lamp that radiated throughout the room, and a blurred pinkish, splotched sort of pattern that was interspersed with a few other colors that showed up in the background. I was pleasantly surprised.
    A Really Great Camera, 2010-08-16 I've had this camera for about a week and I have to say I'm more than a little impressed. I bought just the body as I have several Canon lenses already. I find the camera easy to use and not uncomfortable for my type of shooting. Some have said they find the grip just a little small. I find it to be quite comfortable so far. (I played football and boxed, so my hands are somewhat stiff and a little torn up.) I like the Main Control Wheel on this camera much better than the SX10/20 series. I have an older A2E and the wheel is similar. I was very frustrated by the SX10's wheel. I've used a 35-70mm Canon lens and the 100-300mm telephoto with exceptional results. (I tried contacting Canon about 2 weeks ago about using the older EF lenses with this camera. No answer from them to-date. And yes they work perfectly.) Some people call this an introductory camera. I don't think that classification does it justice. I started many years ago with a little 35mm Pentax, moved up to a Mamiya RB67 2¼ format, then a Hasselblad. I've won some awards and shot many a cover in my day. I left photography behind for many years, job, family, etc. One of the truths I've personally learned is that almost any camera can go beyond the "beginner" title if the person behind the viewfinder is willing to put in the time. I am NOT saying that I don't appreciate the more sophisticated elements that higher price cameras afford, just that to make really good photos doesn't always take real fancy equipment. I love really good equipment, I just think that people shouldn't think the camera is the ONLY variable. Clyde Butcher roams the Everglades with his large format cameras and stick to poke alligators on the nose so he can get his shots. Ansel Adams did not know anything about digital cameras and some would say he was a fairly good photographer and he even gave us the Zone system. And Stephen Frink shot some really incredible underwater stuff with a Nikonos underwater camera, which has never been known for its exotic capabilities other than being able to go deep underwater. Point being, these guys learned about photography, lighting and composition. Do those things first. Remember, a camera is light gathering device. If you can see it through the viewfinder, then you can find a way to record it.
And this camera makes it so easy. I find that the automatic mode is fine for a lot of quick shooting. But if you shoot in bright sunlight, I find that with Canon lenses, it's best to set the exposure control down by 1/3rd of a stop.
But this mostly a personal choice. The camera itself is absolutely wonderful. Balanced, easy to use and fast. Read the manual. I'm not kidding. Read it with the camera in front of you. Then study and shoot. Another good piece of advice I received when I was starting out was find a picture you like and try to shoot the same shot. Things look different through a viewfinder. Once you can duplicate with some degree of accuracy shots you like, you'll find your own work getting better.
Sorry if you were expecting a more traditional review, but I thought something should be said about the photographer using it. As for video, I don't use it unless some guy is yelling "Don't tase me bro!" If you want video, get a video camera.
    Great for action shots, 2010-09-03 Up until this camera I was a compact, point and shoot kind of person. My cameras have mostly been Canons because I really like their ease of use, quality, and pictures. This is my first digital SLR and I chose this one for its features, including the HD video. It's got all the bells and whistles for taking great pictures in all sorts of situations. I am a beginner when it comes to all the manual program settings, aperture, shutter, ISO, etc. but where I really love this camera is action shots. It captures moving subjects so well, even if I don't figure out or use all the other features, I'm happy to have this camera just for the action shots. I can actually get the picture I want when I want it. As opposed to a point and shoot with the lag time that got me the shot I wanted after it happened. Very frustrating. Love this camera.
    Purchased as a back-up, 2010-08-13 It's getting used just as much.
One heck of a take-everywhere camera with a small prime or zoom.
5/5

    Holy Moly!!, 2010-08-29 I only buy things with good customer reviews, but I never tend to write them. With this product, I have to. WOW! I am BLOWN away by this camera. I got this for my photography class for college and I figured since I was spending a lot, might as well go for it. This camera has surpassed every expectation I have and is completely worth the money. Especially for a newbie just starting out, it's great.
I HIGHLY recommend it.
