That being said, the T3 has almost twice the battery life and image storage, I am assuming because its only 12MP compared to the T3i which is 18MP (i think).

The only downside to the T3 really is it doesn't have auto sensor clean, and for video its only 720p with no external mic jack.

The T3i has auto clean, 1080p with an external mic jack. (plus the extra mega pixels). But its $120 more.
