I’ve been shooting with a Canon EOS Rebel XTi, and I’ve upgraded the kit lenses to high-end Canon and Sigma optics. I’ve been happy with my Rebel, but, like most hobbyists, I am constantly trying to get better pictures. If I upgraded my camera body to a Rebel T2i or a 7D, would I get noticeably better pictures? A. Good question; the answer is, it depends. Both models you mention will give you a big boost in resolution (to 18MP, from 10.1), and the 14-bit A/D conversion rather than 12-bit will provide better detail, particularly in colors. If you plan to shoot a lot, models like the 7D and the new EOS 60D give you better build quality, longer battery life, and wireless TTL flash control through the pop-up unit. But, remember, there is a no-cost option that will significantly improve your pictures: shooting in RAW. The bump up in image quality you get in TIFFs made from RAW files can be startling. And you already have the option in your camera.
