From DailyTech: Canon is a big and popular maker of many types of digital cameras from the cheap point-and-shoot cameras to more complex and expensive D-SLR cameras. The new D-SLR camera from Canon is called the EOS Rebel T2i. The camera is described as a D-SLR that can grow with a photographer as they learn more and expect more from the camera.

The camera can shoot bursts at 3.7 fps and has an ISO range of 100-6400 and a 63-zone dual layer metering system. Canon is positioning the camera as a bridge between entry-level D-SLRs and prosumer cameras. The T2i can record 1080p HD video and has a Movie Crop mode that offers 7x additional zoom with no lost image quality when shooting in SD resolution.

The camera has an 18-megapixel sensor and features an expanded +/- 5 EV exposure compensation range for more versatility when showing. The cam has selectable image quality settings and can store JPEG images and RAW images. The LCD is a 3-inch model and has 1.04 million dots and a 3:2 aspect ratio. The camera is the first EOS model to support SDXC memory cards. The T2i will ship in March for $799.99 in a body only kit. A kit with an 18-55mm lens will sell for $899.99.
