Is the T2i and 550D the exact same camera?

[Craig Tull]

Just seen this on eBay and am very tempted!

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/NEW-CANON-EOS-REBEL-T2i-550D-DIGITAL-SLR-CAMERA-BODY-/380290272997?pt=UK_CamerasPhoto_DigitalCameras_DigitalCameras_JN&hash=item588b110ee5#ht_12174wt_1141

I am from the UK and just wanted to know if this T2i is exactly the same as the 550D. Has anyone got experience with this subject and could help me out? I think it's the exact same camera but with a different label.

Any help would be appreciated so thanks in advance.

Thanks for the quick reply Pokri. The only other thing i'm worried about is will it come with a UK plug charger not a US one? Anyone know if i'll have to buy an adaptor or it will come as a UK charger? Thanks

the charger itself can deal with either voltage so a 1$ adapter will work either one.
the T2i ships with a US 110v power cord and the 550 with a 220v cord.

I used my 110v charger in Korea 220v with a 1$ adapter.

hope this helps.
