i have decided im jumping on the band wagon.
i think the t2i is the best way for me to get the quality i want at the money i have, and yes i do know of the limitations


now that the t3i is out, so is there going to be a price drop in the near future?


or is this the best deal i'll find, back off, it's mine

I just got off ebay a Brand new T2i body for 700 Canadian shipped.

It seems alright but if your just getting a body id look for lower. the cards you can get for like 20 - 30 on ebay. batteries are super cheap too.

just my 2 cents. its up to you.

Whats your budget?? cause i know you'll be buying a lens

The T3i isn't worth the extra money, not much has changed between the two. If the price is low, goooooooooooooooooooooo for it

i have heard a few people say that the t2i won't drop much from where it is now, because of how it fits in the lineup, but if I were you, I would get this instead

cheaper, and its new. You don't need a class 4 card, and you can get a nice 16gb class 10 for $35-$45 on bh (the lexar has good reviews for hdslr video)

factor in at least a tripod, and possibly a glidecam too

although I have those two items now, I wish I didn't get them months after I got my camera
