Canon EOS Rebel T3 (with 18-55mm IS II lens) price range: $74.99 - $649.99

The good: Unsurprisingly, the Canon EOS Rebel T3 delivers excellent photo quality.
The bad: Average performance, a nothing-but-the-basics feature set and claustrophobic viewfinder leave the camera an uninspiring shooter.
The bottom line: Though it's a perfectly fine entry-level camera, there are better options for the money than the Canon EOS Rebel T3.
Rather than introduce new dSLR models at bargain-basement prices as Pentax and Sony tend to do, Canon traditionally lets its slightly higher-end models gradually fall in price until they're the de facto entry-level models. But its current starter, the EOS Rebel XS, which the Canon EOS Rebel T3 replaces, has been around since the summer of 2008 and even Canon must think it's looking a bit dowdy compared with competitors that, though old, aren't quite that old. So Canon spruced up its low-end models a little with the latest imaging and metering systems--and somehow managed to produce a camera that still feels 3 years old.
That's not to say that the T3 is bad; it's not. In fact, the photo quality is quite good for the price, as we've come to expect from Canon. It has excellent midrange (ISO 400-3,200) sensitivity performance. JPEGs get a bit grainy, but remain very usable, up through ISO 800, and start to get soft at ISO 1,600. At ISO 3,200, the JPEG photos don't look terrible, but you can see some color noise and images develop hot pixels. As usual, Canon's JPEG processing is pretty good. I couldn't get much better results from processing the raw versions--I could get different results, but only by trading off dynamic range for color and grain.
Overall, the T3 delivers excellent color reproduction, though in shadowed areas the white balance gets a little too cool. The default Standard Picture Style pushes the saturation and sharpness a bit more than I like, but there are no wholesale hue shifts and the Neutral style works out well if you prefer. Metering and exposure are solid.
In its Standard Picture Style setting (sharpness at +3), the camera plus 18-55mm lens renders very sharp images--possibly a little too sharp. You can dial it back, however. The lens produces nice out-of-focus highlights, and at its widest the distortion isn't too bad. Like most inexpensive lenses, it's pretty susceptible to fringing. I didn't see any purple, however, and it tends to stay on the edges of the frame.
For the most part, the T3 performs like the rest of the budget dSLRs, although its burst speed is worse than the 3-year-old XSi and pretty much at the bottom of its class. Time to turn on and shoot runs about 0.4 second, while focusing and shooting in good light takes 0.3 second; in dim light, that rises to 0.6 second. Typical JPEG shot-to-shot time rounds up to 0.5 second (raw is a bit slower at 0.6 second), and with flash enabled it--surprisingly--stays the same. All of that is pretty typical, perfectly adequate performance for a low-end model. Continuous shooting, though, is a mediocre 2.9 frames per second, which is just as bad as the Nikon D3100. In practice, that's just fast enough to capture kids and pets, but only if they're moving predictably, and with the knowledge that you may occasionally not get the shot. And Live Mode autofocus is as slow as you'd expect.

The T3's video capture is pretty limited: 720p, with exposure compensation the only control and no autofocus. That said, the quality is OK; it's suitable for capturing random clips.
Though it's not the heaviest camera in its class, the T3's body is rather clunky. And while I like the rubberized grip, the whole camera feels very cheap and plasticky. The control layout is straightforward and functional. The four navigation buttons bring up ISO sensitivity, drive mode, white balance, and autofocus mode options, whereas exposure compensation, movie record/live mode, menu, Quick Control, playback, and display occupy other buttons around them. All of the buttons are flat with little tactile feedback. The only buttons with any sort of travel are the exposure lock and AF point selector buttons, positioned for thumb-based operation. They still manage to feel mushy.
Lots of people don't mind them, but I dislike the low-end Canon viewfinders. This one in particular is the most claustrophobic I've seen in a long time; it's also got the lowest magnification of any Canon camera in the past few years. It's easy to lose the nine tiny autofocus points against the scene, and I frequently find I've used the wrong point to focus and have to prefocus to light them up in order to find the center point. The T3 lacks spot metering, and I think it's because of the small viewfinder; Canon tends to have large spots for its meter, and the combination of a small viewfinder and a large spot means you're already at the partial meter size, anyway.

The LCD also feels small. Since it's not 16:9 aspect, the 2.7-inch size isn't as small as it sounds (it's about as high as a 16:9 3-inch display), but it's another thing that makes the camera feel old. It's also relatively low resolution and difficult to see in direct sunlight.
As I've often complained before, I hate it that you have to use a specific movie mode to shoot video, and I especially hate that it's on the opposite side of the mode dial from the manual modes. For the T3, Canon also made the flash button flat and moved it to the top right side; I had to look up its location in the manual because it was so camouflaged. And you'd think there'd be plenty of room for an SD card slot in the huge grip. Instead, Canon moved it to the bottom, in the battery compartment--a popular but annoying location.
The one bow to modernity seems to be the Feature Guide, which pops up a description of the option in the Shooting Settings display. Creative Auto--it allows you to change aperture (background blur), drive mode, flash, and color "ambience"--is the closest thing Canon offers to a newbie mode. But there's nothing particularly interesting or inspiring in its feature set. Its one advantage over the Nikon D3100 is that it offers bracketing, which you'll need if you want to dabble in HDR, but even that's a bit lackluster: three shots in up to 2-stop increments. (Download the manual for a full accounting of the T3's features and operation.)
Conclusion
Though I'd technically place the D3000 as the T3's main competitor, for roughly $100 more (depending upon where the T3's street price falls to) you can get the D3100 kit or the Pentax K-x, both of which offer significant performance advantages and newer autofocus systems, while the D3100 has a larger (though lower-resolution) LCD and comparable photo quality. Nor is the T3 the cheapest model on the market; as far as I can tell, that nod goes to Sony's Alpha DSLR-A390.
If you really want an entry-level Canon, look at the T1i instead. It's not much more expensive, and offers better performance, comparable or better photo quality, a nicer viewfinder, and a similar feature set.

My two cents

Summary: I recently purchased a Rebel T3 as a second camera body for shooting events professionally. (My primary camera is a Canon 5D MkII.) I am very impressed with the performance and image quality of this Rebel T3, and recommend it to anyone searching for a high quality dSLR.
Here's what is Most Impressive about the Rebel T3:
* Very light weight and easy to carry, yet Very solid design and craftsmanship
* Auto-white Balance is impressively improved over older models
* High-ISO (low light) performance is also amazing -- detail is preserved even at ISO 3200
* Tethered to a computer, this model works seamlessly and naturally
* The menus have built-in descriptions that can be enabled or disabled in accordance with the shooter's familiarity with the camera -- this is immensely useful
* Video quality is exceptional, and having a separate mode for video greatly simplifies use
* The menus are the same great Canon system that they've been perfecting and refining with each new release
* Bright and colorful LED screen
* Full compatibility with hundreds of models of lenses
Here are what I consider the compromises:
* The rear button system is a little different than the higher-end models, but almost as easy to use. I think this is a consequence of the smaller body size, mostly.
* No informational LCD. Instead the LED screen displays the information, or you see the details through the viewfinder. This is inconvenient, but again probably due to the size.
* No depth-of-field preview button
* SD memory cards only -- not CF like older Canon models
Altogether, I consider the compromises to be minor and mostly unimportant when it comes to actually taking photos. What you are getting with the Rebel T3 is the latest imaging technology in a small, compact, affordable body. It is a reliable, professional-level gateway into digital imaging. There are only minor compromises, which ultimately do not greatly affect the image. I feel confident in declaring that my skill level is the limiting factor on this camera, not its technical specifics.
Regarding lenses, I cannot speak about the included kit lens since I immediately sold it (the "body only" box was not available at the time). The lenses I've primarily used in the month I've had the Rebel T3 have been the EF 28mm f/1.8, which provides a "normal" field of view, the EF 100mm f/2, which is ideal for head/face portraiture, and the EF-S 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS, which is an excellent lens for travel and casual shooting, with very modern Image Stabilization. All three have performed excellently on this camera. ( Before you will buy the Rebel T3 I suggest you have to check for best price or lowest price in market at --> http://camerarev.blogspot.com/2011/09/canon-eos-rebel-t3.html )

Summary: I was tired of taking pictures of the back of my childrens heads with my point and shoot so I started to research my options. I wanted an SLR that could take continuous pictures, quality pictures and most importantly something that I could easily learn on my own without getting into the weeds and spending hours doing so.
Unfortunately CNet did not review this camera before I bought it, but for the money and it's performance I was comfortable pulling the trigger. The review CNet did is fair but if your looking for an entry level SLR the cons should not concern you. If you are like me you want something easy to use that is a step up from a point and shoot and doesn't break the bank. This camera has met that for me.
I've had the camera for a couple of months and mostly used the Auto setting and it takes real nice pictures. I've become adventurous and started to use the Manual settings and the pictures are equally as
nice. The user interface is very straight forward and explains what each feature does and what it means to change a particular setting. You learn how to use the camera very quickly and it's fun playing around with the settings.
I would recommend buying the 55-275 lens, it really allows you to take those candid pictures from a far enough distance that might otherwise not happen. The best is taking those picture without your kids yelling "Stop That" The video feature is fine but don't expect this to replace your video camera, it's good for a short video but that's really it.
The grip on the camera is the same material as the body, so to me it was a little slick and I wish it had some form of texture. That's the only con I have.
If you are in the market for an easy to use, entry level, action picture SLR this is a solid choice.3 out of 3 users found this user opinion helpful.

Pros: This camera apparently has a lot of capability but I have not been able to use it yet.
Cons: The camera body is so flimsy that with normal holding pressure in my right hand, my thumb could make the display go to half-brightness and flicker. Let up with my thumb, display works properly. Press right above the four way selector switch.

Summary: I sent the camera with the original pre-printed registration card to the "warranty" repair center. Since this was a Christmas gift I do not have an itemized sales receipt. Canon sent me an estimate for $220 to fix a camera that was defective out of the box. Unacceptable. Zero for customer service.
Customer Service / Repair Center accepted my purchase information and they repaired the intermittent camera and shipped it to my door in less than seven days. Very speedy and responsive service.
Updated on Feb 21, 2012
This camera has seven semi-automatic modes (portrait, distance, close-up, etc.)and four manual / coupled modes, and a movie mode. Compared to my 1970s vintage SLR this camera has all I was looking for, and then some.
I have not used the photo software very much yet but it is far and away the best I have seen, very intuitive.
I like the grip and feel of the camera. Unlike cell phones and point and shoot cameras this one is not going to be dropped. The buttons are easy to work.
I would have to give the Canon Rebel T3 a solid 4 now, possibly a 5 after I learn to use more of its features. -
