I'm terrible at photography and don't really do it at all (especially not skiing) but here are a couple photos I took last summer:

And here are a couple T2i edits I've made:









Also, here's a Philip Bloom video that made me want a T2i:



Hope that helps!

oh yeah that's right. um for the photos, the first and third were probably shot with the Canon 85mm f/1.8 non-IS, and the second was probably shot with the Canon 17-55mm f/2.8 IS. But I'm not positive, sorry.

As for the videos, the Colorado one and Woodward one were shot with a combination of the 17-55mm and the 85mm, the New Year's Eve Morning one was shot with a combination of the 17-55mm, the 85mm, and the Canon 50mm f/1.4, and the Tijuana one was shot with a combination of the 17-55mm and the 50mm.

Those are the bottom of a Ronin one piece suit, he just cut it in half so he could just wear the pants.

just so you know, a T2i has the same sensor as the T3i, 60D, and 7D. so photos taken by any of those cameras will look the same

i could be wrong about this, but im fairly certain that yes, it will look the same.

same goes for 7D video and T2i video, it's the exact same since the sensor is the same.

the reason why the 7D has a better reputation for photography is that it is much more optimized for photography than the T2i (better to hold, i think a faster autofocus, faster burst mode, better for time lapse photography maybe, stuff like that). so even though the photos will look the same, the 7D is more professional tool for the job as far as photos go (T2i is better for video)

It's a fun little camera for sure as far as video goes, although I'm not sure it would be my first choice for solely photography.

None for both, he just lengthened the shutter time for both shots...

Yeah, if you didn't know how those were made I REALLY wouldn't suggest a DSLR for you...
