Canon’s CMOS (Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor) sensor captures
images with exceptional clarity and tonal range, and offers the most
pixels in its class. It offers many of the same new technologies to
maximize each pixel’s light gathering efficiency that were first seen
with the professional EOS-1D Mark III model. It’s an APS-C size sensor
(22.2 x 14.8mm), and there's an effective 1.6x increase in the lens's
marked focal length when attached.
The improved DIGIC 4 Image Processor ensures that images are captured,
processed and saved with remarkable speed. The EOS Rebel T3 DSLR’s new
3:2 multiple aspect ratio, in-camera RAW image processing, creative
filters, image resizing and provided S2 and S3 image-recording quality
are all possible thanks to the DIGIC 4 Image Processor. With dazzling
results, the new DIGIC 4 Image Processor also works to capture and
process data of images shot at 12.2 Megapixels at 3.0 fps, as well as
14-bit signal processing for excellent image gradation, enhanced Face
Detection Live mode, Full HD video recording, Auto Lighting Optimizer
and Lens Peripheral Optimization.
With a broad range of ISO settings, the EOS Rebel T3 enables shooting
from sunrise to sunset and helps ensure capture of the finest detail.
With enhanced high-sensitivity optimization, subjects can be captured
clearly and easily at high shutter speeds without flash, with minimized
blur and noise. In bright scenes, especially long exposures in daylight,
optimal exposure can be achieved with a fully open wide-diameter lens,
no dark filter needed.
The EOS Rebel T3 DSLR’s expanded repertoire of technologies includes
shooting video in brilliantly clear, exactingly sharp high definition
for playback on your HDTV! Shooting at 1280 x 720 at 30 (29.97) or 25
frames per second, HD video can be taken immediately through the EOS
Rebel T3 camera’s intuitive operation and layout. Parameters for white
balance and picture style are already set — just grab and go!
The EOS Rebel T3 has a huge, bright 2.7-inch TFT (thin film transistor)
LCD monitor with 230,000 pixels and a viewing angle of 170°. It’s
perfect for Live View composition or viewing camera settings like AF,
ISO, Metering, AF Point selection and flash options. And the maximum
brightness of the EOS Rebel T3 DSLR’s LCD monitor is about 30% greater
than its predecessor, which is a big benefit when you’re using the
camera in bright sunlight.
