Hi all
I recently got a Rebel XS to begin learning photography and I love it. I don't have any complaints about the camera ( at least with my current level of skill ) except that I can't shoot video. At first I was willing to accept that the XS couldn't shoot video because I told myself that I was going to be concentrating on strictly still photography but it really annoys me that I have this nice camera with a nice lens but it just can't take video. I even have the PC program that allows you to record video via the USB live-view hack but I am going to want to take video when I am away from my computer so that tool is really a novelty piece to me.
So with that said, I am thinking about trading in my XS + ~$100 for the T3. The T3 is the only thing that is going to be in my budget at least for now because I am about to move to China and my money is super tight. My question is would it be worth it to do the upgrade? If not, then maybe I will keep my XS and buy a simple Flip video recorder or something just to have the option.
Thanks!
