Canon T3 Rebel Picture and Video Test Results

[elixer412]

I've taken great photos with this camera. Ansel Adams once said, "The most important part of your camera is the 12 inches behind it." Its the photographer, not the camera people!

[deedeearemaster]

Also megapixels don't matter at all in any way. My nikon D3 is 12mp and blows this plastic toy out of the water. Lenses and sensor SIZE are all that matter. (And ISO performance helps, but only for low light shooting)

[EverythingISTech]

@deedeearemaster I hope you understand this is not a review....

[TheXStephen1]

What was that loud noise when you showed a video?

[x7Luke7x]

@TheMrSkittleism sensor does still matter, bro.

[hillstudios]

megapixels do not matter for quality, its just the output of the size of the photo, what really matters is the size of the sensor, if u had an 8mp phone camera and a 6mp full frame dslr, the dslr would look a helll of a lot better than the phone.

[x7Luke7x]

get a t1i, t2i, or t3i seriously a point and shoot takes better pictures then the t3

[EverythingISTech]

@x7Luke7x Its not the camera that makes the pictures, its the lens and the photographer using the camera.

[x7Luke7x]

@EverythingISTech i know, but this body isn't as good as the 500 550 and 600

[x7Luke7x]

@EverythingISTech of course you could get better pictures with something besides the kit lens. kit lens on most eos cams suck

[KevinxHD]

@x7Luke7x haha you actually have to be kidding me, this is fine, and performs about as good as the T3i minus full hd video and a higher MP count, which can actually cause the T3i to perform a little worse low light in some situations

[TheMrSkittleism]

@x7Luke7x lol you probably just judge cameras buy the sensor.

[7672547]

@x7Luke7x It's a very good camera if you know how to use it.

[x7Luke7x]

gotta have dem megapickles

[SPACELORD6]

U said, "T3". But ur video shows, "T3i". So what camera did u actually use 4 this video?

[EverythingISTech]

@SPACELORD6 Its T3. Sorry for the confusion.

[Rusty845637]

@hastown you're wrong

[TechTechAway]

Really thinking hard about getting this camera!

[richardarichter123]

does the auto focas work tried in store the auto focas did mot work in the store tried to turn it on

[ktajohnston]

The rebel line is an entry level DSLR, and is perfect for amateur photographers, or those interested in upgrading from a point and shoot camera. The T3 is an excellent example of how they have increased the quality of the Rebel line. I would look elsewhere for a review of the camera, as this video fails to discuss many of the camera's specifics.

[EverythingISTech]

@ktajohnston I cannot stress this enough but this video IS NOT A REVIEW of the camera. My full review is found on my channel.

[Kailey1010]

Question i want to buy this camera for a concert I am going to...do you think this camera is good with movements, for things like concerts?????

please respond ASAP i want to get it on black friday!(:

[EverythingISTech]

@ProductionsAviles Oh ok im sorry my photos weren't soo great within the month I purchased the camera...

[JerseyShore117]

@EverythingISTech Hey is it annoying to manually focus during video?

[EverythingISTech]

@JerseyShore117 Depends on the situation, thats why I don't completely rely on it for my Video recording.

[JerseyShore117]

@EverythingISTech Oh gotchya thanks

[seshcrewproductions]

@ProductionsAviles aren't you cool

[jarredjarred12]

@ProductionsAviles cocky much?

[TEEVENSSNEVEET]

@ProductionsAviles lol fagott

[MrNeocaligus]

@ProductionsAviles You are such a bozo, Not everyone can be perfect like you......-_- _- :I

[Mo0m0oSaZn]

@ProductionsAviles I hope for your sake you think things through and realize how idiotic a comment you left on here because as of now, I'll be sure to never send people in need of photographers your way.

[jrwaneurysm]

@ProductionsAviles You can't even spell legit you retard.

[OBHF11]

you have no idea what ur talking about do u.

[lilduck99]

DSLR does not mean professional camera! This is not a professional camera. A professional camera is a full framed (all except the Canon 1D Mark IV) camera capable of withstanding the beatings of professionals. They are weathersealed and don't have all the modes! They rarely have a built in flash as well!

[EverythingISTech]

@lilduck99 I understand what you mean because the T3 is no where near the professional level of DSLR camera. In the video, I compared the T3 as a DSLR camera to other types of camera like the Digital and Point and Shoot Cameras.

[nuthingbetter]

:( if my main purpose is to make videos with the camera should i buy the t3i so i can get an external mic, or can I just use the built in mic that comes with the t3?

[EverythingISTech]

@nuthingbetter The T3i would be the best bet.

[M1sterHamilton]

@nuthingbetter t3 only has 720p video, get a t2i, it's cheaper.

[Toxiclevideos]

@M1sterHamilton THE T2I IS DISCONTINUED

[M1sterHamilton]

@Toxiclevideos No? Just because the T3i is out doesn't mean the T2i isn't still being sold at every camera store, it's just cheaper.

[nicholasbonkowsky]

Quick question, is there a limit on video recording time or is it record until your memory card is full? 

[EverythingISTech]

@nicholasbonkowsky There is no limit.

[nicholasbonkowsky]

@EverythingISTech Thank you for the information.

[yagacsa]

No offence man but ur "review" suck!

[EverythingISTech]

@yagacsa This is not a review! I've mentioned this several times. This video only shows the picture and video test results. My review is up on my channel.

[MrIsaacMiller]

Hey can the Canon T3 use an external mic? Thanks.

[EverythingISTech]

@MrIsaacMiller No it sadly cannot use an external mic.

[buster916]

Hey do you notice that when taking pictures using the lcd display the camera struggles to focus and seem much slower to focus on any given subject vs when using the eyepiece it focuses just fine and speedy on the same subjects.

[XxWhatUp123xX]

not to be an asshole but there is a differnce between the rebel t3 and the t3i and t3 takes in 720 and t3i is in 1080

[EverythingISTech]

@XxWhatUp123xX I know I meant the T3. Im sure I wrote an annotation. Sorry for the confusion :(

[ashrust96]

For a photographer and someone who likes to take video, what would you rate this camera? And is it worth paying the $549?

[EverythingISTech]

@ashrust96 Im just getting into the hobby so in my opinion, Its a GREAT entry-level DSLR. I love it and I chose it over the D3100 because the T3 is much easier to use. I have a review up on the camera and its got most of the details covered.

[EverythingISTech]

@splural To the average photographer (who takes photos for the sake of taking photos), I guess them thinking "megapixels are everything" makes sense.

[HFdemofilms]

this may sound stupid, but can you use manual focus while shooting video?

(plus, is the video only 30fps 720p, or can you also shoot 60fps?)

[EverythingISTech]

@HFdemofilms What exactly do you mean by manual focus in video? I know for sure that the video is either 29 fps or 30fps.

[HFdemofilms]

@EverythingISTech as in you can manually adjust what is in focus(I have seen this be possible on the T2i in photos. like in the photo of the lens cap, he used manual focus to make sure the camera didn't focus on the background.

[EverythingISTech]

@HFdemofilms You can do this photos. For videos, Im pretty sure you can (since you can for photos) but you need another type of lens for that.

[JuanValdiviaQuidel]

@HFdemofilms of course that you can use the mf, is the same when you are taking photos

[SuperCarsGT3]

does this camera have good audio, like can t record very loud noises without it being staticy?

[EverythingISTech]

@SuperCarsGT3 The camera takes decent audio. If your ever disappointed with the internal Mic, you could always purchase an external mic.

[remzi133]

@EverythingISTech You said "you could always purchase an external mic", I have the camera too (EOS 1100D) and there is NO external mic socket, 550D/T2i do have a mic socket.

[EverythingISTech]

@remzi133 Thats weird. Its on the left side of the camera (a small flap) that guards the Mic input, USB input and HDMI input.

[remzi133]

@EverythingISTech Thats for a remote control, I thought it was a mic input too, but it isn't, its for a remote control, just google it or read the manual.

[hannahhh12]

the reason that the T3 takes better quality pictures than the Nikon Coolpix is because even though they have the same megapixels, the DSLR will always have better quality.

[EverythingISTech]

@hannahhh12 Not entirely. Professional photographers (even those who are into the art as a hobby) carry both an slr and a point and shoot. Point and Shoots can take fantastic pictures if you know how to change the exposure rates, etc. However, I think it is EASER to take better photos with dslrs because you can easily change the settings and so alot more than the average point and shoot.

[SoBeFaith]

Yeah that will be great.

[SoBeFaith]

Okay thank you :) and no worries. I was just windering because im about to buy the rebel t3

[EverythingISTech]

@SoBeFaith No Problem. Its a great entry-level dslr. I'll have a review up in the next few days, if your willing to wait to see more about it :D

[SoBeFaith]

Im confused is this the review of t3 or t3i? You say on when the picture says the other.

[EverythingISTech]

@SoBeFaith Its the T3. Sorry. I'll have the review soon.

[irishalltheway960]

wait so are you saying the 18-55 lens isn't good or do you have a different lens?

[EverythingISTech]

@irishalltheway960 I;m saying that the 18-55m lens kit is not good if you want to take shots from a faraway distance. Overall I love the 18-55ml lens kit because its a good for most purposes.

[anitaac]

does this camera has digital zoom?

[EverythingISTech]

@anitaac Yes it does. 

[anitaac]

@EverythingISTech I cant find it, I feel kinda stupid hehe

[irmabarragan08]

which one would you recommend me the nikon D3100 or canon T3 ? please help me

[EverythingISTech]

@irmabarragan08 I would recommend the T3. I was at the same stage, and I used both the D3100 and the T3. I like the T3 better because its easier to use and the view-finder is alot bigger on the T3 than the D3100. In my opinion, the T3 the camera I would recommend for anyone trying to learn about Photography. The D3100 has better video but its a pain because every time you change the subject (i.e. go from a flower to the grass) it makes alot of noise. If you can, go to a store and test both out.

[irmabarragan08]

@EverythingISTech oh okay you've been very helpful i think ill by the canon T3, thankyouuuu :)

[EverythingISTech]

@irmabarragan08 No prob. I'll be coming out with a review very soon.

[darkbouchon]

i hope you shoot in raw files and not jpeg

[EverythingISTech]

@darkbouchon I've begun shooting in RAW.

[darkbouchon]

@EverythingISTech yeah idk if you know him but he helps alot learning... /watch?v=cW6cAeg5mRs

[EverythingISTech]

@darkbouchon I've seen a few of his videos. Thanks for the recommendation

[darkbouchon]

I REALLY DON'T KNOW what to choose between the t3 and the t3i....

[EverythingISTech]

@darkbouchon If you have the money start off with the t3i. Of course it might take a little more time to learn with the t3i, but you'll have the advantage of a better iso and megapixels. If you just want to make a start in photography (as a hobby or professinally) and your on a slight budget, I'd go with a t3. Just personally, I was thinking of buying a t3i, but I went with the t3 because of the money and for the fact i st wanted to take photos rather than 1080p video.

[darkbouchon]

@EverythingISTech alright thanks for the info...well i'm not really on a tight budget..i'll explain you. i'm 17 and i work at a fast food so i get money lol and i dont have any obligations or anything. bills to pay or what ever u know so i guess i have lots of money...the only thing is a i spend it too fast and never have some lol. i spend it in useless shit...so i was thinking should i get the t3 or t3i...anyway i'Ll think about it

[ripsnorting13]

2 questions:

Is it the t3 or the t3i?!

And how is the rebel vs a nikon l110 a fair comparison? The rebel is a SLR and the l110 is more of a point and shoot...

[EverythingISTech]

@ripsnorting13

1-the camera is a t3 (sorry for confusing it a bit)

2- i really did not mean to compare the Coolpix. I just wanted to show how the T3's photos in general come out. I just used a few photos from the coolpix to give a you a feel for ghe pictures.

[ripsnorting13]

@EverythingISTech Im looking to get one, but the only thing I dont like is the plastic body. I really like the d3000 but there isnt any video, live view, or AEB. Im considering this one, but i think i should get the only i like...dont know....

[ripsnorting13]

@EverythingISTech AH ok. Im debating on this camera hard. The 2 choices im thinking over are the D3000 and this T3. The biggest differences i have noted are t3 has video, and AEB. I dont like the smooth grip on the canon or the cheesy plastic body. I like the feel of the Nikon D3000 and its body feels solid. Though it does not have bracketing or video. Any suggestions?

[EverythingISTech]

@ripsnorting13 Well I will be having a review up on the camera shortly (please subscribe to get the updates and it helps me out). Video on the T3 isn't great, and it shouldn't change your decision on which camera to buy. Between the two choices, I'd go with the T3 because its a great entry-level dslr, and the view-finder is much easier to use. The plastic body on the T3 isn't the greatest, but its solid enough that it will not break down on you. Go to a store and test both cameras out.

[ripsnorting13]

@EverythingISTech Yeah your right, I noticed the the video quality wasnt great on the t3. Nonetheless it has video at least. I work at a walmart photo lab (during summers for college) and I played around with the T3 and the D3000. The feel on the D3000 is great, but even the "bottle cap" style switch on top felt cheap on the T3. Im disappointed in Canon for putting so much freaking plastic on it. The Nikon feels solid and heavy in a sense of strength. Though T3 has more features.

[EverythingISTech]

@ripsnorting13 I mean of course the Nikon seems to be more sturdier as far as the build goes, but I honestly don't think you should entirely base your purchase on how the camera is built. In the end of the day, you really want a camera that has the features and can give you the learn experience. Of course the build quality is important, but if your careful with a camera, you'll be fine. Of course, whatever you feel is comfortable to use, thats the camera you should choose.

[underxstars]

I don't know if I should get the nikon p500 or a t3 rebel...help?

[EverythingISTech]

@underxstars Depends what your going to be using your camera for? If its more for the video, I would stick with the P500. For photos, I tried the D3100, and for me the view-finder wasn't as big as the T3's. I mean, I really love the T3 as far as pictures go. The specs of the P500 are pretty close, so the decsion is pretty hard to make. Personally, go check out both cameras in store and pick the one that suites you.

[underxstars]

@EverythingISTech thanks for your help !

[EverythingISTech]

@underxstars No Problem!

[M1sterHamilton]

The picture of the leaf and the fly is horrible and blurry.

[jwheeler91]

your video says t3i, which is different to the t3...

[ColeJMproductions]

the T3/ Rebel line is not a professional camera.

To get a good photo you need practice.

Please, PLEASE check POTN.

[EverythingISTech]

@ColeJMproductions But aren't DSLRs professional?

[ColeJMproductions]

@EverythingISTech No, a DSLR is a type of camera, it is the style that most professional photographers use. the rebel line itself is made for consumers.

[EverythingISTech]

@ColeJMproductions Oh okay! Thanks for the heads-up!

[javierchaconm]

@ColeJMproductions It is a PRO-SUMER camera. You fucking ignorant.

[ColeJMproductions]

@javierchaconm please consult more than a best buy salesmen. If you were to ask any professional photographer (me) they would tell you it is a beginner camera, Like I said, check POTN. it is a photography forum where many professionals discuss photography.

[OMGFracturez]

Wow I haven seen this channel In the longest, I remember winning a itunes Gift card on this channel. Lol If you do remember me every thing is tech you was the won who help pick out a HDTV. And by the way thanks. I love this TV I had it for like almost a year now and I love it. I see your a youtube partner nice. I hate how your channel gets like no attention. You should start promoting your video so more people can see your videos and you'll most likely get much more subscriber.

[EverythingISTech]

@OMGFracturez Haha hey! I missed you too :D Thanks for the kind words, it really helps me alot.
