Canon rolls out the update to it’s midrange dSLR range, the Canon EOS 600D / T3i. It features an 18-megapixel sensor, full HD 1080p video recording. Sounds familiar? Yep, you bet, that’s the same spec as Canon’s 2010 midrange DSLR model, the Canon EOS 550D / T2i. Seems like Canon is sticking to it’s yearly incremental updates for this particular line of camera which is both a good thing and a bad thing (especially if you’ve just bought a 550D).
Looking at the spec sheet, yes, they’re basically the same cameras with minor differences to set them apart (hence an incremental update). What sets the 600D apart is the vari-angled LCD similar to the EOS 60D and Nikon D5000, Built-in wireless flash control and several software improvements taken from the 60D like Basic+, a creative imaging function which makes it easier to create the desired image effects when shooting a scene.
