Canon EOS 1100D: Overview

Affordable price; Good image quality; Easy to use

Build quality same as EOS 1000D; You might quickly outgrow it

A predictable update to a fine entry-level SLR – it might be short on exciting extras but its ability to take gorgeous photos is hard to fault.

"...last year, opting for the Canon 1100D, which I picked up as part of a deal in Curry's where I got the camera body, an 18-55mm lens, a 75-300mm lens, a carry case for the camera and lenses and an 8GB SD card all for £485.00. ~ What is an SLR camera? ~ SLR stands for single lens reflex.

captures sharp; impressive images; low price; great for beginners; light for an SLR

quite difficult to find your way around at first; a lot heavier than a compact

This is a great camera that delivers professional results when used by a novice.

Easy to use; lightweight and a joy to use

Additional lenses can be expensive

I use the 1100D for outside shotsmainly, occasional portrait pics for business. The basics are unshiftably in place - speed, basic settings, focus and flash options. But I can't help thinking I am missing out, partly due to my lack of expertise (my problem!

Durable; Great Picture Quality

Bulky; Lacks Intuitive Usability

I brought this for my wife as her first adventure in to photography ( and to leave my cameras alone)
to be honest it is a very good camera and i would recommend it to any first time user.. though you could shop around for a better price..

Easy To Use; Excellent In Low Light; Fast Shutter Speed; Good Battery Life; Great Resolution; Nice Features and Settings

Price

The Canon 1100D offers a good shooting experience for a great price, with enough features and functions to satisfy SLR beginners. Compared to the competition though, the 1100D falls behind the pack in terms of top-line specifications and overall build quality.

Comes in a range of colours; Bracketing; Great image quality on default settings

Can feel a little plastic-y compared to other entry-level cameras; Only a 2.7-inch LCD screen; No AF lock button; No external microphone input

After lot of cross checks i zeroed in on this product... canon.. brand speaks for itself..!! Price was a little tricky thing when i looked around for other options.. like showrooms in my city and other e-commerce portals.. but some had good deals on price but Flipkart was more reliable..

"This camera costs ~19k in ebay and many other sites.You are 24k and offer? Strange.You need to give better offers. This is above market price and above MRP mentioned in camera pack i guess Please correct"

These days it's hard to tell the entry level cameras apart from the fully geared up models. The Canon Rebel T3 (EOS 1100D) sits between the EOS 1000D and EOS 550D models, looking and feeling like any Canon DSLR, from the lofty 5D Mark II all the way down.
