What's great about it: Pictures
What's not so great: video stabilization while hand held
I love this camera I upgraded from a Canon XTI. I'm not so sure about the video though,
Pretty much have to use a tripod with video it seems impossible to hold the camera still. Defenatly need a usm lens otherwise you can hear your lens focusing very loudly in the video or use Manuel focus.

What's great about it: size
I have had this camera since late November 2011. Since then I have taken about 1500 photo's. I have been to car shows, gardens, outdoor landscape etc. In every instance I have had great photo's. The camera is very flexible in what programs you can use. It is an easy camera to carry and learn. I have a CANON 18-135, a TAMRON 15-70 and a CANON 55-250 and all of them produce excellent results. If I get a bad photo it is because of me, trying new options or settings. This is my 1st DSLR and I couldn't be happier I get great low light photo's using the TAMRON 17-50mm, f/2.8 VC lens.

What's great about it: Price, features, full HD recording
What's not so great: Hand grip scratches easily, does not come with an LCD screen cover/protector as Nikon DSLR's do.
Purchased the Canon T2i body to replace my old Canon Rebel XTi and was pretty impressed with all the features. Specially love the full HD recording capability.

What's great about it: Everything
What's not so great: Little expensive but understandable
The pictures come out amazing. I am not a pro photographer but I have taken some classes on it and its perfect for me. Can be basic and easy for a newbie but also able to adjust shutter speed, apeture, and focus on your own if you want. All buttons are easy to use if you already own or know how to opertate a cannon camera but a little tricky if you don't.

What's great about it: !8 mp,video,hi ISO quality,good price & financing
What's not so great: Maybe battery life
I bought this camera to replace my dead 20D, It is a vast improvement.Besides it's 18 mb it also does video in Hd.There have been times in the past when I wished I had a video camera with me but didn't want to carry another camera just for video.Problem solved!The high iso shots are superior to those taken with my XSI.I have always carried 2 cameras to keep from changing lenses from wide to telephoto, the main reason .for this purchase.I use it mainly for wide angle with a Sigma 10-20mm and the results are great.I plan to buy a battery pack soon because video does use a lot of battery power.You won't be disappointed with this camera.Also the price was the best around .

What's great about it: Everything
What's not so great: It is all great.
This is a fantastic camera. It takes incredible pictures in both dark and light. The 6400 ISO settings are just outstanding. I bought this camera without a lens because i already had a bunch for my other Canon camera. they fit perfectly.
This camera has live view and also shoots Hi Def video. it takes some time getting use to the Hi Def video. I bought this camera for the stunning 18 MP pictures and hi 6400 ISO settings. Not for it's ability to take Hi Def video. it is just an added bonus.

What's great about it: Almost everything
What's not so great: Price by Best buy is higher than other stores.
This is a good camera . easy to use and excellent picture. I alway liked Canon better than Nikon, Pictures are more natural than Nikon.
I thought the pictures will bw noisy, sice this hass 18MP, but it isn't.
The price wass OK, however bestbuy's price was higher than other
stores. ie. You can buy from Amazon.com about 100 USD less.
I bought it from Bestbuy becase I can pay within 3 years.

What's great about it: With an adapter you can use many other manual & automatic lenses.
What's not so great: There is a 1.6x crop on full frame lenses.
Hands down this is an awesome machine. I would highly recommend this camera for indi filmmakers. There is a lot of latitude for exposure and the cost to achieve incredible depth of field is cheap. This model controls frame rate and shutter speed, nice for slow motion and action sequences.
This camera performs very well in manual or full auto, depending on the needs of the photographer.
My advice for anyone would be to read the manual to familiarize your self with the settings.
This is a great buy!

What's great about it: 18 megapixels, unbeatable price, 1080p video recording
What's not so great: Build quality isn't as good as professional line
I upgraded to this camera after having an older digital rebel (4 years old) that was showing it's age. I've built up quite a collection of lenses over the past few years and was planning on taking the next step to Canon's professional DSLR lineup. However, after doing some research it seemed that for the money the other DSLR's didn't offer enough advantages to warrant spending thousands of dollars more.
After receiving this camera I really couldn't be happier. The picture quality is fantastic, as is the 1080p video. The features make this camera extremely future-proof and for the price you really can't beat it.
Buy this camera. You won't be disappointed.

What's great about it: Takes great pics,hd video,full live view,18 mega pixels
What's not so great: have had it for 2.5 weeks and shutter button keeps sticking
I sold my Sony A300 DSLR to upgrade to the T2i I was very excited to get this camera .We took on vacation last weekend and it started having issues with shutter button sticking you have to mess with it,turn on off ect..I even tried different lens still same issue.I called canon and because it doesn't happen all the time they said it'd be hard to dignois issue..As it happens outside,inside ect in auto mode with liveview and without so not same settings ect either.
A friend of ours had the T1i for 13 days and had similar problem but his won't even take pics at all,and he also knew someone else with T1i that had similar issue they both returned there camera T1i for replacements.I am waiting till mine has problem more often because I can't be without my camera for 3-4 weeks Canon needs to fix it..I'm just hoping this is not a issue that is just showing up with ths model cameras ..Has anyone else had this problem???
