We first mentioned the Canon EOS Rebel T2i a few days ago and we noticed now that it is already available for pre-order.
The $799 (body only price) camera is Canon’s latest EOS Rebel camera to be launched that boasts some quite amazing specifications for falling in to the top of the entry level range of cameras. When a new camera launches the older model is typically retired although in this instance we hear that the EOS T1i is being produced throughout 2010. Right now it’s only about $15 cheaper than the T2i for the body only version although if both are on sale side-by-side, we expect some larger discounts to be applied soon.
Canon EOS Rebel T2i Specifications
The Canon EOS T2i has an 18 megapixel CMOS APS-C sensor and runs a DIGIC 4 Image Processor that produces the images quickly. The ISO ranges from 100 – 6400 and can expand to 12800 if needed. 63 zones and a dual-layer metering system is also used in the capture system.
Movies on the Canon T2i can be captures in full HD up to 1080p which has a resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels. The screen on the back measures three inches and is in a wide-screen aspect ratio. Live View is also available on this camera.
Eye-Fi support is built in to the camera with a status of the card showing up on the screen (card sold separately) and the camera is compatible with SDXC memory cards.
The Canon EOS T2i is expected to be an amazing camera for the money with a number of the features being found in higher spec cameras. Pre-Order here, although no firm shipping date is set yet.
