The bundle is very good for the price. What you are really paying for is the camera and the lens the rest is OK but will need to be replaced for better quality bag and flash. The tripod is ok but not to sturdy. But the bundle is a great starter for someone getting into photography. I would buy this again and for a family member without a doubt.

If you're referring to the adapters, yes. So this package comes with no usable lenses. If you already have canon lenses its a good option bc of the other accessories. I found it was $50 more than the body only and the remote, spare battery, flash card, etc. are useful (adapter lenses not so much).

Not suer what the issue is. A very good used D3 should cost no more than $2,500. Since that's less than half of the as-new price and it was a working-pro camera back in the day, I found the D3 a great buy. Of course, the D4 is better in many ways but since it's $6,000 and out of reach for me at this time, I am happy with the performance of the D3 for magazine and motorsports coverage. In fact, within one month of making my purchase, I shot a magazine assignment and made more than half of my purchase price.

Yes i have a canon t3 and the t3i and there isn't much of a difference between the two so you should order it and it will work for you

Well, the bundle comes with the following items: Camera and Lens, Camera Case, Memory Card, Memory Card Wallet, USB Memory Card Reader, Rechargable Batteries with Charger, Cleaning Cloths, Mini Tabletop Tripod, Screen Protector Plastic Cover, Instruction CD, Cleaning Kit (Swabs, Lens Cleaning Fluid). I think that's everything! Hope it's helpful! It's an awesome bundle for the price. The camera alone is a great deal! Got it for my fiance, and she loves it! So many features, I can't even tell you what all it can do. Some people say it's not user friendly enough, but if you can use any other digital cam you'll be fine. And if you'd like to explore other techniques theres the digital manual.

This is a great deal....It comes with a pretty decent starter kit of lenses. While they are not the greatest lenses out there, they def take awesome photos. I would def recommend this package to anyone.

Canon vs Nikon is a personal choice. I would say that it's like using windows vs Mac OS. In terms of quality, they take pretty much the same. This canon is as good as it looks, and you'll probably be pleasantly surprised what you can do with it. In the hands of a good photographer you can get amazing results. I personally would go with canon as I feel that there is more literature written about it. More community support, etc. I would be more apt to research if I was going into the higher end cameras, but make no mistake... Professionals use this camera and write a ton about how they were able to pull of their shots. There is a great book for the T5i by Jeff revell which you can purchase for amazon. I think the new book for the T5i comes out this month, but the one for the t4i is essentially the same in terms of operating the camera. On a final note about your question as to the more advanced camera... The 60d and the t5i are essentially the same camera. The 60d leans more toward strictly photography, while the t5i is more of an all in one package. I've heard from most reviews that the 60d has a slightly better picture, but most of these stats are on paper only and not necessarily anything you'd be able to see a difference in from one photo to the next. I would say what you're looking for is the t5i. The other great thing about buying a t5i is... If you maxed out your technique and were dying to upgrade in the future... Your lenses, filters, accessories will carry over. And you'll only need to upgrade to a better body. I think this is hands down the camera to get. Even if you want a better one in the future... Spend the time juicing this one for all it's worth... So that your eye picks up to the subtleties of the differences between this and the next body up. That's just something that's harder to gauge the higher up you get. Like anything in life, the higher up you move, the more subtle the difference between(save the price.) I hope this helps.

This Camera is in class kind of the middle of the road for the top end of Canon, BUT! I have had really good quality pictures with this camera. The movies have be very good also. Keep in mind that a camera is just a camera with out the right lens or settings for each shot. But if you don't have a lot of money to spend on a camera then the Canon T4i should work for you well... Go to my site and view my photography work. This will give you and idea on what kind of photography you will be turning out with this camera... You be the judge. https://www.facebook.com/PhotoByJamesPhotograohy?ref=hl

The short answer is 'yes'. The relative image quality provided by the T3i is actually on par with the newer models. If you ever want better image quality, a higher-end lens will provide a much, much bigger improvement (and, since you saved some money on choosing this model, you might be able to get such a lens sooner). The camera includes everything you need and is only missing a couple of shiny new features provided on the newer models. If video is VERY high in your priorities, however, you might consider the 70D or SL1.

Yes it is work. Because the t3 is ef mount and efs. http://www.dpreview.com/products/canon/slrs/canon_eos600d

Everything was brand new. I have no idea why the bundle is cheaper. I bought it at Christmas and thought it was a holiday bundle. Everything in the bundle was brand new also. So far, the camera is working very well, no complaints.

The price will vary depending on what you get in the box.You may want to consider the camera and a bundle purchase or just the camera /battery /charger and an extra battery.( that's what I got.)It's not an SLR but it is a good camera for the $$$You needs will determine the purchase.Shop for a good price.Good luck

I definitely think the T49 is worth the money -- but only if you buy the nice STM lens. It is seriously an amazing lens, and I love the autofocus feature when you're taking video. Even if you're only focusing on photos, the camera is great. The enhanced auto function takes beautiful photos when you're in a hurry and don't have time to mess with ISO and aperture, and I think it takes crisper photos than the T2i (although it's probably just the nice lens). Go for it if you have the money.

It got some features that T3i lacks, Like touch screen, more frames per seconds, Digit 5 processor, more iso, fastest focus, even when it have the same crop sensor 1.6, if you can afford it, go for it.

Right now you can get the XSi with the 18-55mm kit lens and the 55-250mm lens for just under $800 through Amazon. Both lenses are image stabilized and I have heard good things about the 55-250, which give great range on a cropped sensored body such as the XSi. Amazon doesn't list these items together but if you add them both to your cart (make sure Amazon is the seller on both) you will save $100 over buying them seperately. This price isn't shown until you get the order confirmation screen. This is the best price I have seen on this camera and don't expect to see a much better deal any time soon. The $100 off is an instant rebate promotion that Canon is offering through it's authorized retailers and it lasts until the middle of January. I would also recommend SanDisk's Extreme III class 6 memory cards in order to fully optimize the speed of the camera. I hope this helps.

Canon T3 is an AMAZING CAMERA, I would recommend everyone to buying it, ive had nikon before and im not as satisfied with it like i am with canon...

Almost nothing. Put it this way: if you found them for sale at the same price then might as well get the T5i. The T5i MSRP is slightly lower than what the *original* MSRP for a similar kit was for the T4i, but we all know that you don't pay MSRP. Even here on Amazon a nice package in my cart shows the T4i to be nearly $200 cheaper than the T5i. That's because of the Canon discount that ends (this time) March 30th (it has been extended several time since November 2011). Essentially, they are clearing out the T4i and the Canon lineup will continue to have T3i and T5i, but no more T4i. Here's the opening paragraph from CNET's review, which highlights the only actual differences between the two models: "No, your eyes aren't deceiving you: the only significant difference between the now-discontinued Canon EOS Rebel T4i and its replacement, the T5i, is the price and the kit lens options. There are some small enhancements, including a new finish; 360-degree rotation mode dial plus the addition of scene mode; a return of digital zoom during movie recording (which had disappeared in the T4i "upgrade" from the T3i); and real-time preview of creative filters in Live View. But ultimately, it's the same camera." -CNET
