I'm looking for a camera that shoots 1080p video, and I'm happy with Canon products (both for affordability and they're what I'm familiar with). I really didn't want to break $1000 on the camera/lens combo, but it looks like it's inevitable if I want to avoid the 55mm break between lenses. I have both the T2i and T3i listed as the body, but I'm open to other suggestions. Frankly, though, I don't NEED the T3i; there are so few differences that I won't know the difference. When I do, it's time to upgrade anyhow.
1 - Price range ~$1000 (less is better, obv.)
2 - The typical kit lens is 18-55mm. I'd like to have a bit more focal range.
3 - 1080p Video
4 - Longevity & Upgradability
Am I being a baby about the 55mm break? If I am, then Option #2 is easily the best deal I've found. Honestly, though, I'm leaning toward #1 Let me know if you have a chance to check them out!
Option/Kit #1
Canon EOS Rebel T2i Digital SLR Camera w/ EF-S 4462B005 B&H
Option/Kit #2
Costco - Canon EOS Rebel T2i Camera 3.7 Frames Per Second HD Video 1920x1080
Option #3 (not sure if costco or B&H is best) total $849.99 (plus tax @ Costco, no tax @ B&H)
