High Resolution Still Capture
18.0 Megapixel CMOS (APS-C) sensor and DIGIC 4 Image Processor
for high image quality and speed.
The EOS Rebel T3i has an 18.0 Megapixel CMOS (Complementary Metal
Oxide Semiconductor) sensor that captures images with exceptional
clarity and tonal range and offers more than enough resolution
for big ments or crops. This first-class sensor features
many of the same new technologies as used by professional Canon
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).
DIGIC 4 Image Processor
The Canon DIGIC 4 Image Processor dramatically speeds up the
entire EOS Rebel T3i DSLR’s camera operations for intuitive
operation and offers improvements in both fine detail and natural
color reproduction. It works in concert with the EOS Rebel T3i
DSLR’s CMOS Image Sensor to achieve phenomenal levels of
performance in nearly any situation.
Amazing Results, No Matter the Light.
ISO 100 – 6400 (expandable to 12800) for shooting from bright to
dim light.
The EOS Rebel T3i features an expanded ISO range that makes
shooting possible in situations previously unthinkable without
flash. With an ISO rating up to 6400 (expandable to ISO 12800),
along with the DIGIC 4 Image Processor's improved noise-reduction
technology, creative possibilities abound. Combine the EOS Rebel
T3i with one of Canon's EF or EF-S lenses with Optical Image
Stabilizer and the shooting possibilities for both movies and
stills expand even further.
HD Dreams Come True.

expanded [1920 x 1080 Full HD video at frame rates of
30 (29.97), 24 (23.976) and 25.0 frames per second] with new
Movie Digital zoom and Video Snap features for enhanced video
shooting options.
The EOS Rebel T3i does not just shoot video clips, it offers the
enhanced ease-of-use, image quality, smooth frame rates and
adaptive exposure compensation necessary in a professional
video-making tool by boasting the most advanced EOS video
capturing features to date: When Full HD (1920 x 1080) is set,
you can use Movie Digital Zoom to magnify the center of the image
by 3–10x while at the same time maintaining gorgeous Canon Full
HD image quality. With the Video Snap feature, the EOS Rebel
T3i DSLR will capture short video clips (of 2, 4 or 8 seconds)
then combine them automatically into one video file as a snap
or highlights “album.” With no editing needed after shooting, the
compiled video is perfect for sharing online or displaying
directly on an HDTV via the camera’s HDMI port.
In addition to a number of different size and frame
rate modes, the EOS Rebel T3i enables easy manual control of
exposure, focus and Live View features and even allows for
in-camera editing. The large CMOS sensor and compatibility with
over 60 lenses provide a wealth of depth-of-field options. And
it’s all as easy as the press of a button — the EOS Rebel T3i has
a dedicated Live View/Movie start/stop button that gets
the shooting started fast.

vari-angle feature only.
With 1,040,000 (dots/VGA) pixels for spectacular detail, the
advanced, smudge-resistant monitor includes high transparency
materials plus anti-reflective and water-repellant coatings to
provide clear and bright viewing. Superb for reviewing, editing
and deleting photos or composing new images in Live View
function, the Vari-angle Clear View LCD monitor is also the
perfect means for accessing camera settings like ISO, metering
modes, AF Point selection, the horizontal Electronic Level and
flash options.
Automatic Scene Analysis for Standout Color.
New Scene Intelligent Auto mode and Picture Style Auto
incorporating the new EOS Scene Detection System to capture
beautiful scenes with ease.
The EOS Rebel T3i DSLR’s new Scene Intelligent Auto mode unites
five Canon digital camera technologies – the new Picture Style
Auto, plus Automatic Lighting Optimizer, Automatic White Balance,
Autofocus, and Automatic Exposure –into a powerful new feature
for photographers. Using the advanced EOS Scene Detection System,
the camera automatically analyzes the image, taking into account
faces, colors, brightness, movement and contrast. Scene
Intelligent Auto then chooses the enhancing features to deliver
maximum impact. Blues and greens are more vivid, “hot” colors are
more fiery, and skin tones are smooth and truer to life.
Intelligent Scene Analysis for Superb Exposure.
Enhanced metering with a 63-zone, Dual-layer metering system for
accurate metering between exposures, and 9-point AF system
utilizing a high precision, f/2.8 cross-type center point.
The EOS Rebel T3i features a sophisticated, 63-zone Dual-layer
sensor designed to complement the 9-point AF system. By taking
into account the color and luminosity surrounding chosen AF
points, this system delivers an advanced level of accuracy for
better results even in difficult lighting situations. Since the
metering sensor has a color measurement function, exposure errors
and focus errors caused by different light sources are minimized;
the EOS Rebel T3i gives stable exposure from to in
situations where light changes, such as in a theater or concert
hall. This makes the EOS Rebel T3i ideal for scenes with extreme
difference in brightness such as brightly lit scenes or backlit
scenes; the camera balances exposure of the main subject at the
background, and exposures are not overly influenced by bright
areas in the . Since the EOS Rebel T3i provides high-speed
X-sync (“X-sync” means the fastest shutter speed that can
synchronize with a flash burst at the moment the shutter is fully
released) up to 1/200 sec., the range of photographic expression
is dramatically increased, allowing the EOS Rebel T3i to be used
with confidence in bright scenes or dim.
63-zone Metering System
Make Your Images As You See Them.
Express your creativity with advanced imaging features like
Basic+ function, Multi-Aspect function and Creative Filters.
Basic+ is a new creative imaging feature that makes it easy to
create the image effects you want. It can be set with the Quick
Control screen in Basic Zone modes. Basic+ provides two options:
Shoot by ambience selection
Based on the Picture Style and its parameters (sharpness,
contrast, saturation, and color tone), the exposure compensation
and white balance correction are adjusted to attain the selected
ambience. You can also can also select the strength of the
ambience effect.
Shoot by lighting or scene type
Although the actual parameter set is the white balance, the
settings are expressed in more understandable terms.
The Multi-Aspect Function of the EOS Rebel T3i lets you express
an image in one of three ways by matching the aspect ratio to
each scene. In addition to the camera’s standard 3:2 ration, the
Multi-Aspect Function includes a 1:1 ratio that creates the
sensation that the viewer's gaze is focusing upon the center of
the image. At the 4:3 ratio, you get nearly the same aspect ratio
as a regular TV or a 4:3 computer display. The 16:9 aspect ratio
provides a wide look, much the same as HDTV.
The EOS Rebel T3i incorporates five in-camera Creative Filters so
you can artistically manipulate scenes without the aid of an
outside computer. Soft Focus lends a dreamy, romantic aspect,
while Grainy Black and White gives a dramatically gritty,
hard-bitten look. Miniature Effect creates an illusion in which
expansive subjects are seemingly reduced to doll-house-like
proportions, and Toy Camera Effect recreates the colors and
softness rendered by cameras with a plastic lens, an effect often
sought after by art photographers. Fish Eye Effect mimics the
“Fisheye” lenses that are favorites of professional photographers
for their quirky, convex perspective.
Never Miss a Moment.
3.7 fps continuous shooting up to approximately 34 JPEGs or
approximately 6 RAW.
The EOS Rebel T3i can shoot up to 3.7 frames per second (fps)
for up to approximately 6 consecutive RAW files or approximately
34 full-resolution JPEGs. Shooting at speeds of up to 1/4000
sec., the EOS Rebel T3i can capture even rapidly-unfolding scenes
with ease.
Photography Made Truly Easy.
New Feature Guide offers short descriptions of each function and
Quick Control screen for easy operation.
The Canon EOS Rebel T3i DSLR demystifies great photography by
including an in-camera Feature Guide. Appearing on the camera’s
LCD, the Feature Guide displays a simple description or advice
for the respective function. It is displayed in each shooting
mode, during Mode Dial operations, and for Quick Control screen
functions (during normal shooting, Live View shooting, movie
shooting, and playback). The Feature Guide appears automatically
during Mode Dial operations and when a function is selected on
the Quick Control screen.
Flexible Storage with Memory Cards.
Compatibility with SD/SDHC/SDXC memory cards.
The EOS Rebel T3i uses popular SD, SDHC and SDXC memory cards.
Compact, inexpensive and available in increasingly large
capacities, SD, SDHC and SDXC memory cards are a perfect
complement to the EOS Rebel T3i DSLR’s compact and lightweight
body design.
Additionally, the EOS Rebel T3i is compatible with Eye-Fi* SD
cards, which are outfitted with a Wi-Fi transmitter (IEEE
802.11b/g) and an internal antenna for wireless, high-speed
transfer of images. With an Eye-Fi card installed, the EOS Rebel
EOS Rebel T3i can display the Eye-Fi’s connection status and
error notes with ease, for fully functional wireless uploading of
images directly from the camera.
*Canon cameras are not guaranteed to support Eye-Fi card
functions, including wireless transfer. In case of an issue with
the Eye-Fi card, please consult with the card manufacturer. The
use of Eye-Fi cards may not be available outside the United
States and Canada; please contact the card manufacturer for
territory availability.
The Best Optics for the Best Images.
Compatible with the full line of Canon EF and EF-S lenses.
EF Lenses
The EOS Rebel T3i is compatible with all Canon lenses in the EF
lineup, including compact and lightweight EF-S lenses, ranging
from ultra-wide angle to super telephoto lenses. Canon lenses
employ advanced optical expertise and micron-precision
engineering to deliver outstanding performance and deliver
beautiful results. Special technologies like the Canon Image
Stabilizer technology in select lenses helps to minimize the
effect of camera shake, effectively adding up to four stops of
light. With a dizzying array of lenses perfect for travel,
sports, still life and everything in between, photographers can
truly maximize the quality and performance of their EOS Rebel T3i
with superlative Canon optics.
Flash Photography
With a flash sync speed of 1/200 of a second, the EOS Rebel T3i
also features the accled E-TTL II flash metering system. With
any of the flashes in the EX Speedlite line, 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. Additionally, the EOS Rebel T3i has a
Speedlite transmitter built-in for convenient, full-featured
wireless control of EX-series Speedlite flashes set as slave
units.
The Canon Speedlite 430EX II is the ideal step-up accessory for
powerful flash shooting with the EOS Rebel T3i. It has excellent
flash power (maximum guide number of 141 ft./43m at ISO 100), and
is the perfect way to get great flash pictures when you can't get
right up to the subject. The 430EX II is also great for bounce
flash, with its tilting and swiveling flash head. It
automatically zooms the flash head to cover lenses ranging from
16mm up to 105mm or longer with the EOS Rebel T3i. Of course, it
works with the camera to provide full E-TTL II automatic flash
exposure. And the 430EX II has a powerful AF-assist beam, which
allows the camera to autofocus even in total darkness on subjects
as far as 32 ft. from the camera.
