Good buy?

[JoshTrottier]

Canon EOS Rebel T2i, I'm interested in buying this camera package from bestbuy and using their two year plan, which I know I will be able to make the monthly payments for sure. I also figured if I pay 66$ each money I could have it payed off within 15months to be on the safe side.

That's the camera, does anybody here use the T2i? Or have any reviews on it?

Dude, you need to read this:

Canon Rebel T2i / EOS 550D Compared to the Nikon D90 Side by Side

Oh, there are hundreds of T2i reviews out there on the Internet: http://www.bing.com/search?q=canon+T2i+reviews&form=MS8TDF&pc=MS8TDF&src=IE-SearchBox

More MP is not always better.

If you are tight in budget, you might want to consider getting used. Even 10+mp sensored DSLRs of a few years ago are more than good enough to get started... and not go into too much debt.

@KmH
I read that blog and wow!
I'm going to check bestbuy to see if they got D90!

@usayit
I can't buy one used due to the reason that buying used does not have a payment plan.

Are you sure you want to spend so much money (close to $1000) for a camera on a payment plan?
If you decide to do so, I would think of some kind of insurance for the camera, just in case something goes wrong and you are making payments for a camera you may have lost or got stolen or broke, etc... What lens comes with the camera?

Yeah I'm pretty sure bestbuy has warranty and such.
