    adminBy adminFebruary 7, 2011Updated:December 9, 20201 Comment3 Mins Read

    Canon announced, today, a whole slew of new consumer-level cameras & accessories – including two new additions to the Rebel family: the EOS Rebel T3i and the EOS Rebel T3.

    The T3i offers fun and easy-to-use features for beginning photographers, and the EOS Rebel T3 provides a more attractively priced option for those looking to experience the pleasure of shooting with a DSLR camera.
