Canon T2i: Getting to Know the Camera

Matt sits down with best-selling photography author Jeff Revell to talk about the Canon T2i DSLR camera. The T2i is a great transition camera for photographers moving from a point and shoot to DSLR. It combines a lot of the comfort features of a point and shoot with the advanced features of a DSLR. As Jeff says, it is important to get familiar with all of the features on a camera. The more comfortable a photographer is with their equipment, the less they have to worry about changing settings and the more they can concentrate on composing a great image. Follow along with Matt and Jeff and learn about what makes the Canon T2i such a great purchase.
