As the title says I'm just getting introduced into photography and I want to get nice DSLR around 6-700$. I am interested in the T3i, but I'm afraid I'm over looking a model or not considering all my options. Does anyone have any suggestions????

My recommendation would be to go to the Canon refurb site and look for the highest number Rebel kit that fits your budget. The Rebel T8i is the latest model.

If you want something small, the Canon SL1 is a great DSLR and is also super tiny. More importantly, Canon's STM kit lenses are amazing.

I am with John Hoffman. But I will further it just a bit to, "Buy the Rebel T8i."  Don't get a lesser model at this point.

Personally I would avoid any of the SLx series or any Rebel that isn't a T8i. If there is one in the refurb store that's OK so try there first. The T8i with lens, retail, is about $900 so a bit over your price limit but well worth the extra bucks.
