Canon Rebel T3 / EOS 1100D
Bottom end of the camera interchangeable lenses have become competitive with other manufacturers selected features and cutting corners to provide a compelling upgrade path from a compact camera, with The most attractive prices. As a result we saw back control, orientation sensor, and even disappear focus motor to reduce production costs of all levels, entry gateway camera. From the viewpoint of consumers, of course, we also saw only one technology within reach of the expert camera filter down prices is almost certain.
For years, Canon and Nikon have carved up the sub-$ 1000 DSLR market between them, without any particular concern about the other players on the market. But hegemony is never the most likely, especially once the electronic giants such as Panasonic, Sony and Samsung have had time to prepare their competitors. Finally, even if Canon had to respond to the emergence of more companies offering impressive low, especially with the division of the Rebel line of it in a variety of different models.
In June 2008, instead of allowing the discount model when the next camera was introduced, Canon brought out an entirely new model that sits below then XSi/450D its very recent Rebel . The Rebel XS (EOS 1000D in Europe) has been unashamedly cut down version of the XSi, but a mixture of a sensor is also reliable and attractive prices have seen it continue to sell strongly, particularly especially at the end of the price conscious market.
Two and a half years, almost two cameras on modern life, so it has begun to look like XS can turn out to be a one-time, until the launch of its replacement in February 2011 . The T3 Rebel (EOS 1100D) builds on a successful formula and take it further, providing a powerful (if not exactly cutting-edge) set of features in a body suggests that it should be very competitive on price.
1100D takes an array of familiar, heard and fold them together in a common package, but obviously still capable of sound. Therefore, a 12MP CMOS chip which dates back 450D/XSi, along with the current system of standard 9-point AF and Canon 63-iFCL area (concentrate, color and brightness sensitivity) system Metering first seen in the EOS 7D. These combine with the processor equally renowned Digic 4 provides a camera that can not provide much in the way of surprise (which should also mean avoiding any discomfort).
Canon has announced the T3 Rebel (EOS 1100D) entry-level DSLR. Built around a 12MP CMOS sensor, Digic 4 processor and the latest, the new baby Rebel camera is also capable of 720p. It increased 9-point AF sensor used in many previous models of expensive and sensitive colorimetric sensor iFCL first seen in the EOS 7D. It also benefits the basic interface does not allow technical + creative control without expert knowledge of photography. The camera will be sold or with other versions, modified 18-55mm IS II lens or an updated version of the Mark III is not stable. We had a chance to get out hands on a pre-production EOS 1100D and have prepared a preview with a beta sample collection.
