The Canon Rebel T1i offers more features than have ever been seen at this price range before. As a part of Canon's entry level "Rebel" series, one might be tempted to think of this camera as just a plain camera. This would be a mistake. The T1i offers a very high resolution sensor at 15 megapixels. It can record full HD video at 1920 x 1080 resolution (albeit at only 20fps). For 720p video, it can shoot at 30 frame per second.
In terms of basic usability, users will be thrilled with the very sharp, high resolution 3 inch screen. If you're been using an older camera, you won't believe how sharp this screen looks.
All these features come in the typical small and compact form factor of the Rebel series. If you demand these features, but don't want a heavier camera, than the T1i is for you.

The kit lens with image stabilization (IS) is perfect for travel, since it is small, covers a versatile focus range, and the IS helps in situations where you might otherwise need a bulky tripod. Even if you're not a traveler, these features still make for an excellent camera body.
