Oh boy, not another one.

 

if all that matters to you is resolution, buy the one with the most megapixels.

Just get a T3i with a nice lens.

Sure, you can have a high megapixel count, but if you dont have a nice lens, those high megapixel photos will look like trash.

18MP is still a lot, 5184 by 3456 to be exact.

 

This is an example of the type of deals you can find on a body

Here's a good lens that Id get, obviously I dont know what type of photography youd be doing, but this is a good lens for my needs so why not use it as an example

There are also probably deals you can find with the kit lens included, which will cover more of your needs compared to just a 40mm prime.

What's better the t3i or the t5i. Also, I heard that conon doesn't update their sensors. Olympous and Nikon do.

 

What do extender tubes do?

Also, what's the difference between the one you linked, and a 40mm included with the camera?
