High Resolution Still Capture
New 15.1 Megapixel CMOS sensor with DIGIC 4 Image Processor for faster processing of fine detail and natural color reproduction, 14-bit A/D conversion for smooth color tones and gradations.
Canon's CMOS (complementary metal oxide semiconductor) sensor captures images with exceptional clarity and tonal range and offers the most pixels in its class. It offers many of the same new technologies as used by Canon's professional cameras to maximize each pixel's light gathering efficiency. Its APS-C size sensor creates an effective 1.6x field of view (compared to 35mm format). Canon's DIGIC 4 Image Processor dramatically speeds up all camera operations for intuitive operation and offers improvements in both fine detail and natural color reproduction. It works in concert with the EOS Rebel T1i's image sensor to achieve unprecedented levels of performance in all lighting situations.
DIGIC 4 Image Processor
With the EOS Rebel T1i, analog to digital signal conversion is executed by a 14-bit processor, which generates digital data with incredibly smooth tones. A feature that originally appeared in top-of-the-line pro digital SLR cameras, the 14-bit conversion gives incredibly smooth transitions from light to dark colors with far less risk of banding. A sky at sunset is a perfect example. With this rich 14-bit gradation, the EOS Rebel T1i offers RAW images of the highest quality that can be processed with Canon's Digital Photo Professional software. Even JPEG files, which are always finished at 8-bits per channel, use the full 14-bit conversion initially to generate the best possible color and tonal detail.
Sophisticated Still and Video Features
Full HD video capture at 1920 x 1080 resolution with HDMI output for HD viewing of stills and video.
The EOS Rebel T1i shoots brilliant video, even in full high definition. By simply selecting Movie mode on the EOS Rebel T1i's mode dial, the camera's 3.0-inch LCD lights up, and it's ready to go. Shooting is at a frame rate of 30 fps when shooting SD or HD quality video (640 x 480 and 1280 x 720 pixels, respectively) and at a frame rate of 20 fps in Full HD (1920 x 1080 pixels) recording. Sound is recorded through the camera's built-in microphone. Playback modes are simple to access, and all Live View AF features can be used in shooting video.
Full-Featured On-screen Shooting
Live View Function for stills (Quick, Live and Face Detection AF modes) and video.
With Live View Function on the EOS Rebel T1i, you can enjoy nearly every camera function available in normal shooting, all with the convenience of composing on the camera's brilliant 3.0-inch LCD monitor. You can zoom in and navigate the composition and there's even a grid overlay for architectural shots. Live View focusing modes include Quick mode, Live mode and Face Detection AF mode and these are easily selectable through the convenient Live View Function menu.
Rugged and Reduced Glare High-Resolution Screen
3.0-inch Clear View LCD (920,000 dots/VGA) monitor with anti-reflective and scratch-resistant coatings for improved viewing and smudge protection.
The EOS Rebel T1i has a 3.0-inch high resolution LCD monitor that features 920,000 dots/VGA for far more detail than previous Rebel-series LCDs. It's the same screen found on professional models such as the EOS 5D Mark II. A number of features enhance usability: an anti-reflective and water-repellant coating provides a clearer and more smudge-resistant surface and screen brightness can be adjusted in 7 steps in accordance with ambient light.
Optimized Images Every Time
Auto Lighting Optimizer for superior highlight-shadow control.
The EOS Rebel T1i's Auto Lighting Optimizer is yet another image-quality tool that comes to the rescue in tricky lighting conditions. It can actually lighten dark areas of a scene while ensuring that bright areas maintain tonal detail. It's available in all shooting modes, including P, Tv, Av and Manual.
Sharp Results, No Matter the Light
Wide range ISO setting 100-3200 (ISO expansion: 6400, 12800).
The EOS Rebel T1i features a greatly expanded ISO range that makes shooting possible in situations previously impossible without flash. With an expanded setting to ISO 3200 (ISO expansion: 6400, 12800), along with the DIGIC 4 Image Processor's improved noise-reduction technology, your creative possibilities are nearly endless. Combine the EOS Rebel T1i with one of Canon's EF/EF-S lenses with Optical Image Stabilizer and watch your shooting possibilities expand even further.
Perfect Photographic Learning On the Go
Creative Auto goes a step beyond auto allowing control over frequently-changed settings.
Especially for beginners looking to expand their photographic horizons, the EOS Rebel T1i offers Creative Auto mode. While basic settings are based on full automatic operation, shooting guides on the LCD screen enable you to make corrections based on simple to follow guidelines. In essence, with Creative Auto mode, you can learn about photography while taking stunning photographs.
Shooting and Sharing Made Easy
Compatible with over 60 Canon EF/EF-S lenses and most EOS System accessories.
- EF & EF-S Lenses
EOS Rebel T1i is compatible with all Canon lenses in the EF and EF-S lineup, ranging from ultra-wide angle to super telephoto lenses. Canon lenses employ advanced optical expertise and micron-precision engineering to deliver unprecedented performance in all facets of the photographic process. Special optical technologies, such as Aspherical, ultra-low dispersion, or fluorite elements are featured in the universally acclaimed L-series lenses, and Canon's Optical Image Stabilizer technology is featured in select lenses, including the EF-S 18-55mm IS lens bundled with the EOS Rebel T1i, to minimize the effect of camera shake. With Canon lenses, you can truly maximize the quality and performance of the EOS camera.
Flash Photography
The EOS Rebel T1i features Canon's acclaimed E-TTL II flash metering system. With any EX-series Speedlite, E-TTL II provides reliable flash output whether shooting fill-in flash pictures in sunlight or using flash in total darkness. With E-TTL II, the exact same 35-zone metering sensor used for measuring ambient light is also used for flash metering - giving even finer metering command of the image area. If you prefer a broader area for flash metering, there's a menu setting to change to Average flash metering - where the entire 35-zone area is measured evenly for flash exposure.

Comments about Canon Canon EOS Rebel T1i Digital SLR Camera w/EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS Lens:
I loved the product and for years was waiting on Canon to produce this product. I use a 28 to 200 Lens and not the 18 to 55 that came with the camera. The only two drawbacks I see are (1)the limit of 4 GB for recording movies. However the low resolution for longer recording times before reaching the 4 GB limit is just as good as the 720 HD. The other (2) is that you hear the focusing on the playback if you automaticlly focus while videoing. To get around this just manually focus or Automatically focus at the outer limits first and then simply move your focus rings manually and no focus noise on the final products. The LCD screen is awesome, like watching a big screen TV. The cost verses quality/use is an excellent return on your money.

This is a great just above entry level DSLR. Its menu is great for beginners and it is very versatile and also it has the newest technology like a 15.1 CMOS & DIGIC 4 Image Processor. People just need to remember to rate this camera on its own merits and flaws with cameras in its own class. If u have a semi-professional or a professional DSLR please remember not to judge this camera while thinking of your other cameras.

Thrilled with continuous shooting and video. Very easy controls. Bought for trip to Costa Rica and so happy with the clarity of monkeys, birds and flowers. The zoom was great. I bought the camera at my local Ritz store and the staff was great. They really helped me understand why this camera was perfect for me. Thank you RITZ

I own this camera and use is frequently - especially now that I'm retired. My daughter has her own photography business and uses a Nikon, but people tell me over and over that they like some of my pictures better than hers when we are shooting the same landscape or family portraits! This is a great camera and unless you have a lot of money to spend, are a professional, or just have a preference for another brand I'd say get this camera!

this is my first dslr, but i had previous knowledge from reading and hands on. im taking photo classes in college and i felt like my p/s was kinda keeping me from movin on to the next level. so far this has bee a good buy, now the problem is figuring out which kind of lens to buy next. the kit lens is good, but i need a tele lens, so thats y im searching. the kit lens isnt really good for anything except close up shots. the image quality is great, alot better than sony, and about even w nikon. canon and nikon have their own pros n cons that makes it difficult to pik, but for what i was looking for canon was good. best advice, pick two or three cameras and do deep research on them. thats what i did, and it all paid off. i am very happy with my choice. but be sure to hold it and play with it at a store before you decide anything.

I have had (and loved) my Canon EOS Rebel X film camera for many years. I finally decided to upgrade (with some resistance) to digital. I have always been very happy with Canon so I decided that it was the way for me to go when I went digital. I have only had the T1i for a couple of days, but so far I am quite impressed. I look forward to learning all the really cool features of this camera. Digital is fairly new to me. I am pretty sure that I am done with film forever.

I bought the Camera online, read most of the manual on the plane, and then used the camera on a trip to Canada. I visited Montreal, Quebec City, Ottawa, and Toronto and took hundreds of pictures and several videos as well. The Camera performed flawlessly. I was very impressed. I especially liked the fact that I could take pictures in very low light with no camera shake whatsoever. Look forward to becoming fluent in all of the different modes. I absolutely recommend this product.

Comments about Canon Canon EOS Rebel T1i Digital SLR Camera w/EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS Lens:
So far this has been a great digital SLR. I have owned many point and shoot digital cameras but always found myself limited and going back to fully manual film SLR. One of the best features of the camera is that the level of manual control can be combined with a number of automatic options. This has allowed me to quickly learn about the features of the camera but still have a safety when I absolutely need to get the shot.

This is the best Mother's Day gift I have ever received (with the exception of homemade gifts from my daughters, of course!). My daughters are involved in competitive dance. At most of their competitions, flash photography is prohibited. With my new camera, however, I can get amazing action shots--in various types of light--without a flash. This camera can do all that Canon claims--and more.

Comments about Canon Canon EOS Rebel T1i Digital SLR Camera w/EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS Lens:
This is my first DSLR camera. I have bounced back and forth whether to get a DSLR or HD video camera. Thank goodness Canon came out with this that has both features. I have tried other DSLR and this T1i is the most impressive. Fast shutter speed and has tons of features. I recommend 16GB SDHC memory card with Class 6 for HD video capturing. Trust me or else you'll be sorry! HD playback is choppy if the memory card is too slow for read/write. If you are trying to decide which to get. Stop! Just get it and you'll be satisfied. Have fun!

Comments about Canon Canon EOS Rebel T1i Digital SLR Camera w/EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS Lens:
I bought the Digital Rebel (300D) while I was in my undergraduate for photography back in '03 when the camera first came out. It had been a great camera and held onto it up until I finally caved in to buy the T1i. The thing that really urged me to buy a new camera was low light performance; the 300D was terrible at it. My buddy who is a Nikon enthusiast had bought a new camera, and pointed out most cameras these days do far better in low light.
So, how is the T1i at low light? Not so great, certainly better than the Rebel, but not much. The dpreview for the T1i hadn't come out yet, so I assumed reading the XSi review would be safe to base an assumption, and just add video to that, right? Nooo. Dpreview has finally finished their review of the T1i and confirmed my suspicion that the T1i is in fact worse than the XSi at higher ISO's. Grain not as manageable, image not as sharp.
Ok, so there is my main gripe, what about the other stuff. The camera is FAR faster than my Rebel. Boots up from sleep very quickly. I can pan through raw images with no delay. The screen on the back is down right amazing, sharp, clear, and classy. New feature of Lens Profiling to correct for lens aberrations really does help images. ISO's 100 to 400 are rock solid and sharp. The camera is a bit small, but works for me and I don't have any difficulty getting to buttons or finding what I need in the interface. The My Menu page is also extremely helpful.
Video mode….. oh video mode. 1080p @ 20fps is more or less a joke. At 20fps, any motion looks flawed. I'd just forget you have that setting. However, 720 @ 30fps looks pretty good. Walking or running while recording isn't a great idea, but otherwise you're good to record. The place where video recording gets tough is focusing. Live View focusing while recording is inaccurate and noisy. Even if you use a USM lens you can still hear it chunk away even moderately noisy setting. You'll either have to stick to one plane of focus, or do manual focus on the fly.
My conclusion? As an artist, meaning I have little cash, yet a desire for excellence, I think I might have been better off buying an XSi body for $300 less. Main thing I wanted was better low light, and the XSi has it over the T1i. The video mode is fun, yet a bit flawed, but with some practice I'm sure will yield great results. Otherwise this camera excels in all other areas.

Basically I got the kit lens that came with the camera. Its a good lens for the money; I have taken really nice pictures and was quite impressed. Obviously you can getter even better pics with a professional lens. The menu system is easy to use and the its quite easy to use the camera if you have had SLR's in the past. The video feature is also nice to have when you would like to capture a special moment in motion :)
Definitely invest in a add on flash or a better lens if you were thinking about doing a lot indoor pics.
Overall I am pleased with the product and I would recommend this product to anyone.

We decided to get a better camera so we wouldn't miss our twin girls growing up. The reason we chose the T1i is the video capturing ability. I also like the option to change lenses, and we just "wanted" a more "professional" type camera and have found it in the T1i with the capabilities of the 50D and the light weight of the Xsi's it is a great combo. It seems that it is a little slow in focusing for rapid succession shots, but I wouldn't rule out operator error, seeing how this is our first digital SLR, and it has been years since I ran an SLR. We are really glad we shopped around and found this camera. We really enjoy using it.

Comments about Canon Canon EOS Rebel T1i Digital SLR Camera w/EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS Lens:
I've only had it for a week but I love the easy to use buttons on this and the Canon XSi which I borrowed from a friend before this purchase. I preferred Canon Rebel cameras over the comparable Nikon ones mostly because of the easier menu options on Canon and the easier to access ISO, shutter speed etc. options. I'm planning to use my camera for some sports photography soon, but so far it has been great in low light, and outdoors. This version has some features to help beginners get started which were helpful at the beginning but I had already become familiar on the XSi. I'm planning to get a bigger zoom lens when I can afford it though. :) The kit lens is good to get started and a great deal, but it's not great for macro shots.

Best bang for the buck. Mine did not work in daylight but hope the replacement works. Very fun and easy to use when it worked. It was good enough for a second chance.

Comments about Canon Canon EOS Rebel T1i Digital SLR Camera w/EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS Lens:
I feel this Rebel was worth every penny. I only recently started out with DSLR photography, using my friend's XS from time-to-time, and finally decided to pull the trigger when this one came out. Risky, I know, since it's so new...but in my five days of ownership, I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS CAMERA!!
The T1i works well with the kit lens... and FANTASTIC w/ the 50mm f/1.4 USM and 28-135mm IS/USM... especially under dim/low-lighting.
The grip is much more firm than the XS... and it's a bit heavier, but that was expected. The user interface is smooth-operating and looks crisp.
The Creative Auto setting allowed my sister to sit with and appreciate DSLR photography more (though she's often so busy, she still prefers simple Point-&-Shoot).

Comments about Canon Canon EOS Rebel T1i Digital SLR Camera w/EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS Lens:
I got my T1i about 5 days ago and took it on a trip with my husbands band. Usually they play in situations with low lighting and the band members move around A LOT. I was a bit nervous because I had just got the camera and hadn't quite got use to handling its functions. I have to say I was very impressed! It was easy to use, the battery lasted 5-6 hrs, the camera was quiet, and good resolution with high ISO. I found the same for very bright light settings. I ended up taking over a thousand pictures. This is a great overall camera for its price. I chose it over the 50D and I couldn't have made a better choice. The only con was that the kit lens wasn't able to zoom in too much. Otherwise, everything was amazing!

Comments about Canon Canon EOS Rebel T1i Digital SLR Camera w/EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS Lens:
A co-worker of mine owns the camera. I have fallen in love with it because the images are incredible. I normally capture images at my childs sporting events because those are important and precious memories that I want to cherish. Anything as important to me as my children and their memories should be captured with nothing other than this particular Canon. It's great!!!

I would definitely recommend this to a beginner photographer such as myself. I have a baby on the way and live in a small town - hoping to capture professional quality pictures of every milestone of my little one's life. Recently took a photography class and am impressed with the ease of use!

Comments about Canon Canon EOS Rebel T1i Digital SLR Camera w/EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS Lens:
I love this product. It's easy to learn & great to adjust to. I'm hoping that submitting this wins me because I have to give this camera up to a friend since I borrowed it & need a camera of my own to be able to continue my passion of photography & build up clientel for my portfolio. Photography is my release, & this camera got me through some very emotional times when I used it to express myself & keep my mind away from the sorrows of my life, so I'm hoping I can get myself one soon.

I am a photographer from Chicago, IL and I use my Canon 30D most of the time. I have been waiting for a better consumer sized camera and canon has brought it to me. [@]
This is me!
