You can read the specs elsewhere, this will be my experience and opinion of the Canon T3i. 

Photo quality: As a new DSLR user, this camera is easy to use and produces amazing, clear, sharp photos. Of course I have never used a high end DSLR, but in comparison to any point and... Read full review »
