First Look at SLR Canon EOS 750D / 760D and Canon EOS 5DS / 5DS R

While Canon’s reputation as a market leader in photographic equipment is increasingly being questioned by competitors, the Japanese giant has enough strength and opportunities suddenly surprised the world by announcing simultaneously, not five, not six, but once seven different models in several classes.

Another Canon finest hour as the protagonist in the news broke Feb. 6, 2015. Edinomomentno Japanese giant introduced the world to seven new cameras: mirrorless system camera Canon EOS M3 (according to the manufacturer, it will be sold only in Europe and Asia, but not in North America), ultrazoom Canon PowerShot SX410 IS and the Canon PowerShot IXUS 275 HS, slr camera amateur class Canon EOS 750D and Canon EOS 760D, as well as full-frame SLR Canon EOS 5DS machines and Canon EOS 5DS R. Since Canon EOS M3 – this is the third generation of mirrorless systems Canon, and ultrazoom Canon PowerShot SX410 IS and the Canon PowerShot IXUS 275 HS continue line, long familiar to fans of the brand, our material will be dedicated Canon EOS 750D, Canon EOS 760D, Canon EOS 5DS and Canon EOS 5DS R. Each of these models has become, to some extent, a surprise and therefore deserves attention.

Canon EOS 750D and Canon EOS 760D

Ruler amateur SLR mid-range Canon EOS xx0D rightly considered the most dynamic: the period from 2003 (the appearance of Canon EOS 300D) had already had nine generations of models. The current generation is represented by the camera Canon EOS 700D, which was announced almost two years ago. Quite significant by the standards of the line period, clearly hinting at the imminent appearance of a successor. His alleged nomenclature name never in doubt: Canon EOS 750D.

The device with the same name really was submitted on February 6. And in a couple of him – Canon EOS 760D. Up to this point the amateur SLR phones midrange pairs had.

Canon EOS 750D

Who is the Canon EOS 750D and Canon EOS 760D? In short, it is a marked improvement compared to the level Canon EOS 700D. But if the Canon EOS 750D is superior to its predecessor rather technical characteristics, the Canon EOS 760D offers also a qualitatively new level of ergonomics, approximating the unit to a higher class models.

First Look at SLR Canon EOS 750D / 760D and Canon EOS 5DS / 5DS R

Comparing the characteristics of the Canon EOS 700D and Canon EOS 750D, the first thing worth mentioning – it will increase the resolution of the sensor. Now proprietary matrix Canon APS-C with a crop factor of 1.6 is divided into 24 million members. In the Canon EOS 700D, there were 18 million. Also in the Canon EOS 750D is set DiGiC sixth generation processor. In the Canon EOS 700D is used DiGiC 5. Change the processor should theoretically benefit the speed of information processing and to improve the signal and noise. By the way, the parameter sensitivity in the wide range of Canon EOS 750D no progress: as with Canon EOS 700D, its matrix and the processor is in the range of 100 to ISO 12800 with plug-ins up to ISO 25600.

750D, the upper bound is

Even more striking progress between the Canon EOS 750D and Canon EOS 700D can be observed in the AF system innovations. It has a hybrid mechanism and is based on the third generation technology Hybrid CMOS AF. In the rear sight on the information screens and in movie mode its velocity is close to the focus of Dual Pixel AF, previously used in a full-frame Canon’s top-level – EOS 7D Mark II and EOS 70D. Of the Canon EOS 70D, by the way, in the Canon EOS 750D is taken AF phase component. It also is based on the 19 cross-type sensor, the central of which – a double cross-type (open aperture of 2.8 and wider). The exposition at the Canon EOS 750D is calculated on the basis of the new metering module RGB + IR detailing 7560 pixels and a built-in face detection technology skin tones.

Because since the appearance of Canon EOS 700D smartphones and tablets have become, in practice, an inherent part of life in the Canon EOS 750D appeared integrated support for Wi-Fi technologies and NFC. Among other functions, they provide clear synchronize cameras with modern gadgets in order to use them as a remote control.

750D, the back side

The rest of the difference between the Canon EOS 700D and Canon EOS 750D can be called cosmetic: slightly improved and expanded program shooting modes, left unchanged parameters of the shutter speed burst shooting is identical (although the buffer Canon EOS 750D more and now there enters 9, not 6 frames in RAW), video shooting options are not visible. The devices of the same information screens back, very similar ergonomics and almost similar to the viewfinder. In general, we can say that progress between the Canon EOS 700D and Canon EOS 750D touched basic things (matrix processor, autofocus, metering), the improvement of which is felt at once and all.

Much more interesting is evident difference between the Canon EOS 750D and the Canon EOS 760D. Technically phones but not twins, but the difference between them will feel far from all amateur photographers.

A comparison of the appearance of the Canon EOS 750D and EOS 760D

First Look at SLR Canon EOS 750D / 760D and Canon EOS 5DS / 5DS R

So, autofocus Canon EOS 760D has a tracking mode when the rear sight on the information screen. This option is available when taking pictures and capture videos. Also Canon EOS 760D case of a movie can use the advanced dynamic range HDR. Finally, in the viewfinder Canon EOS 760D is displayed skyline and self switching between information display and viewfinder automatically – thanks to the proximity sensor.

A comparison of the appearance of the Canon EOS 760D and Canon EOS 70D

As already mentioned above, the main innovations Canon EOS 760D lie in the design and ergonomics of the machine. And they can not hide if the appearance of Canon EOS 750D is a familiar and normal evolution of controls, given more Canon EOS 300D, then ergonomics for Canon EOS 760D is a story line of Canon EOS x0D – from the EOS 10D to contemporary 70D.

In fact, Canon EOS 760D is Canon EOS 750D in the body Canon EOS 70D. Only in a more compact size and single button. For the rest, everything is in place, including existing SLR cameras Canon high-end rear wheel control and additional information display on the upper face. Interestingly, the designers Canon EOS 760D is not even forget about such a “trifle” as the lock button in the center of the dial switch shooting modes. That account of such nuances lets ask the question: Do not put the appearance of Canon EOS 760D threaten the commercial prospects of the line Canon EOS x0D as such? Of course, the technical characteristics of the difference between innovation and Canon EOS 70D is essential, but … certainly, many amateur photographers move to a higher class of devices is due to the difference in ergonomics. Which, to be honest, has always been huge.

Canon EOS 5DS and Canon EOS 5DS R

Already almost forgotten concept of “race megapixels” haunt the minds of photographers in the mid-2000s, quite unexpectedly gave bright relapse: Canon has introduced a full-frame SLR camera Canon EOS 5DS sensor with a resolution of 50.6 megapixels. Novick will have a variation Canon EOS 5DS R, which differs witty leveling system work antimurovogo filter using … one more “negative” filter. Obviously, this is done in order not to complicate the manufacturing process and on the basis of one sensor and one body to do both at the same machine.

Housing, by the way, Canon EOS 5DS taken from Canon EOS 5D Mark III, which with the release of new products does not disappear – the camera aimed at quite different audiences and do not interfere with each other.

What do want to achieve the release of Canon Canon EOS 5DS (and Canon EOS 5DS R)? It seems that several targets at once.

Firstly, the technical capabilities of display. Absolutely ready for commercial production of the full-frame sensor with a resolution of 50.6 megapixels while there are only Canon. In Nikon and Sony full frame is limited to 36 megapixels (model Nikon D810 and Sony Alpha 7R), while Pentax 645Z at a resolution of 51.4 megapixels physical size of the matrix is 44 to 33 millimeters.

Canon EOS 5DS and EOS 5DS R

Secondly, to gain a foothold in the niche cameras for shooting the highly. This, in particular, studio, landscape and portrait professional and staged shooting for gloss. Prior to the announcement of Canon EOS 5DS arsenal of the company’s offerings in these segments was limited almost indecent for these genres 22 megapixels (still the same Canon EOS 5D Mark III). With the Canon EOS 5DS situation has markedly changed. The main competitors – Nikon D810 and Sony Alpha 7R – give “only” 36 megapixels (although the price is significantly less than planned in Canon 3600-4000 US dollars), and medium format Pentax 645Z currently costs twice as much (8,300 US dollars).

First Look at SLR Canon EOS 750D / 760D and Canon EOS 5DS / 5DS R

Do not forget about the third objective of the Canon. Releasing Canon EOS 5DS, the company is actively fulfills technology, combined with the introduction mnogomegapikselnyh sensors. In particular, the production of high-quality optics with the respective resolution capabilities, as well as the creation of mechanisms that reduce the impact of cotton mirror focus.

By the way, a special compensation mechanism appeared in the Canon EOS 5DS with its 50 megapixels. It is based on the rise of motor control, which allows you to change the velocity of the mirror and the end virtually avoiding sharp blow inherent spring Pitching.

5DS, back side

Concluding the conversation about the sensor Canon EOS 5DS and passing to the other features of the device, briefly compare it to the Nikon D810 in the context of detail. So, on a full-frame matrix Canon EOS 5DS five dozen megapixels, while the Nikon D810 their 36. On receiving the picture detail, this means 8688 to 5792 points at the Canon EOS 5DS and 7360 to 4912 points – in Nikon D810. If you send these images to print, then at a resolution of 300 dpi Canon EOS 5DS allows you to get a picture on a piece of area 73.56 to 49.04 cm (average between A2 and A1), and the Nikon D810 – 62,31 41.6 cm ( approximately A2). The size of the matrix senselya Canon EOS 5DS approximately equal to 4.16 to 4.16 micrometer.

First Look at SLR Canon EOS 750D / 760D and Canon EOS 5DS / 5DS R

It should be noted that this amount – not phenomenal triumph of progress. Elements of approximately the same area can be found in devices with APS-C sensor with a resolution of 20 megapixels. Or in vehicles with a matrix of 4/3 ” with a resolution of 15-16 megapixels. Put simply, a 50-megapixel full-frame to do sensel “terribly small and noisy.” Just before on a full frame traditionally made major elements, while the Canon EOS 5DS they … standard (by modern standards).

5DS, the upper bound is

Nevertheless, anticipating questions about the relation of signal and noise, Canon has limited sensitivity range Canon EOS 5DS values of 100 and 6400 ISO (with software enhancement to 12800). Frankly a little background on 100-25600 ISO, available for Canon EOS 5D Mark III or 64-12800 ISO, which operates the Nikon D810. However, for the studio system, where everything is left to the mercy of detail, and there is no problem with the lighting, ISO 6400 – more than enough.

In line with this logic seems quite sufficient and 5 frames per second, which gives Canon EOS 5DS in burst shooting. Clipboard new items ready to accept up to 14 frames in RAW format and up to 510 – in the format JPG. For high-speed characteristics of the camera corresponds to a pair of processors DiGiC 6.

First Look at SLR Canon EOS 750D / 760D and Canon EOS 5DS / 5DS R

The possibility of Camera Canon EOS 5DS is hardly remarkable: the unit is limited to the highest quality Full-HD at 30 frames per second progressive scan, has a monaural microphone and a port for an external solution. Port for external headphones not. Available through the HDMI port does not transmit the compressed material is impossible.

Canon EOS 5DS R + EF16-35mm f / 4L IS USM @ 23mm, ISO 200, 1/500, f / 11.0

For the accuracy of the AF and metering in Canon EOS 5DS meet already familiar from previous models of the manufacturer modules. In particular, the 63-point AF with 41 cross-type sensor has passed a novelty of the flagship Canon EOD 1D X, a full-color IR-metering module 150 thousand pixels taken from reportёrskoy Canon EOS 7D Mark II. Note that the focus and exposure metering system are synchronized and can exchange information – such technology called Intelligent Tracking and Recognition has already been applied all in the same flagship.

Canon EOS 5DS + EF200-400mm f / 4L IS USM @ 329mm, ISO 200, 1/250, f / 4.0

In general, announcing a couple of Canon EOS 5DS / 5DS R, the Japanese giant has made a strong, if somewhat risky move. While its effects more than obvious – intensification of the struggle in a fairly narrow niche vehicles for the highly-shooting. However, as already mentioned, Canon plans obviously much wider than this particular problem. Representing the Canon EOS 5DS / 5DS R, the manufacturer has already hinted about them, showing a dozen days after the announcement of a prototype full-frame sensor with a detailed 120 megapixels.

OnePlus One against the Canon 5D Mark III

Of course, we can not say that to compare SLR cameras with modules installed in smartphones, was somehow a trend. Nevertheless, such efforts still occur, and the camera smartphone while exposed in the best light. Believe that it is real merit handheld devices, or, conversely, to the last to insist that it is the intention of tricks – a private matter. Whatever it was, after Note 3 to compete with the Canon 5D Mark III happened and OnePlus One.

This time it took over an Italian film director, screenwriter and producer Giacomo Mantovani, who became one of the owners of the Chinese “killer flagships.” Povoskhischavshis quality video in 4K-resolution that the smartphone can shoot in ideal lighting conditions, and noting the validity of the same, and for photos, he finally decided to compare gadget SLR camera Canon 5D Mark III, well-proven for the filming of the video. And the results of their comparison showed that OnePlus One could be better “reflex.”

The author, of course, points out that this does not mean that the smartphone can replace you with a good camera, if you are doing the shooting professionally. The test was conducted in a great light, which is ideal “initial data” to the smartphone’s camera, not to mention the availability of lenses, accessories, and other opportunities for SLR cameras, which makes their choice of the pros. Nevertheless, with regard to the dynamic diapason, OnePlus One is quite comparable with the camera from Canon. In a similar exposure between them almost no difference.

Personally for me it’s just another strong argument in favor of the fact that for the average user (let’s say, to shoot in «Auto»), a smartphone is a better solution than the SLR. It is compact, simple, and under good conditions is at least as to the quality of the image.

The camera OnePlus One, by the way, can be seen not only praise. Many call it quite mediocre, especially in the very low light conditions. In future updates, however, promise to support users to shoot in RAW, that is, without any treatment, “raw” data from the image sensor. As he himself writes Giacomo Mantovani, it will make OPO «even more desirable.”

Review Nikon D3300

Every company has such a device – cheap, not enough stars in the sky and no technically or technologically. Typically, they are used to call simply. When this call somehow casually with a touch of irony, condescending.

Only here it is in vain, because most modern devices have long ceased to be  in the bad sense of the word and can easily offer their owners many opportunities for not very much money. Do not believe me? Before you – Nikon D3300.

Appearance – Nikon D3300

Review Nikon D3300

You take the camera in hand and … well, it does not shine premium materials. Although plastic housing built spectacular soundly. No crunch or play you will most likely not achieve, although no persistent barriers. But thanks to the small size of the device fits in your hand is not as reliable and safe as we would like. In general, do not understand what to do for fashion device small budget, and top – great. As if the size solves.

Review Nikon D3300

On the front side – serving handle, bayonet and a few buttons – removing the lens, flash and functional. Bayonet – a metal that is good, but “screwdriver” is not here – have to use lenses with autofocus motor. Such solutions are typical for Nikon – still in the lineup could be seen D40/D60/D80 like.

Review Nikon D3300

On the left side, under the plugs – ports for remote control, AV / TV Out, HDMI and even a port for an external microphone. For the most affordable SLR manufacturer – very cool.

Right – nothing but the memory card compartment.

Back face – habitually the busiest.

Review Nikon D3300

Most of the space is occupied by a three-inch display with 640 x 480 pixels. He immovable and non-touch, and at a decent resolution pictures look faded and “not very”.

Review Nikon D3300

Left – five buttons: Play, Menu, Zoom In / Out, info.

Left thumb – change the wheel adjacent to key AE-L, the switch to Live View, the choice of “pulling” the deletion of photos and a five-way joystick with the “OK” button in the center.

Above the display is the viewfinder diopter adjustment wheel.

Review Nikon D3300

On the upper face – the absolute minimum. Here – the hot shoe and built-in flash, mode dial, and the handle on the gun – the shutter wheel on / off switch and three buttons: REC, info and exposure compensation.

Below – as always. Tripod mount and battery compartment.

Inside – Nikon D3300

Matrix standard for this class of devices. This APS-C CMOS 24 MP, but antialiasnogo filter is not here. When using good optics detailing promises to be a cut above.

Processor – Expeed 4, is the latest development of the company, established in D4s/D810.

Review Nikon D3300

This solution provides absolute lightning-like device when navigating through menus and viewing / saving / editing RAW-files.

Continuous Shooting – 5 k / s, which should be enough for fans. Range ISO – 100 to 12800, 25600 – in the extended mode. Noise reduction system in the new “brain” works quite correct and well – with the right post 6400 will produce good results, even when printing A4. Values ​​above should either incredibly long and hard to handle, or do not use as much as possible.

Dynamic range images is very good. Even under difficult lighting conditions, shadows, and the penumbra of light transmitted correctly and juicy. If the standard is not enough, you can include D-Lightning, but no HDR – will have to remove the fork arms. As stapled.

Autofocus – Nikon D3300

Review Nikon D3300

He immediately on 11 points with a single cross-type sensor. It’s kind of a bit, especially knowing love Nikon to maximize this index, and like and is sufficient for most situations that arise not only for beginners, but also for more advanced people. In addition, some manufacturers manage the same number of points to put in their full-frame model, so that for the younger representative – excellent.

Tenacity AF – normal, nothing more. When using a lens with a motor, everything happens quickly and correctly, in poor light conditions occur false drives forward / backward.

Videography – Nikon D3300

Rollers can be recorded at up to 60 / s at FullHD progressive. It is excellent. However, iris control mode LiveView is not here, yes, indeed, no one expected. But the presence of the port for a microphone in the youngest model – it’s super. Because the sound quality will be available from the beginning, without having to upgrade.

Features – Nikon D3300

From what I liked, and I’m sure will appeal to many – tips. In fact, it is a short guide to the world of photography, which in letter form will explain that, what, why and how. So not only will you mindlessly shoot on automatic settings, but also learn what is responsible for what.

Review Nikon D3300

Second “chip” devices become embedded rangefinder. This allows beginners wishing to learn how to manual focus, do not lose because of defocusing beautiful frame. Rangefinder works as follows: when you switch to manual focus in the viewfinder lights up a small bar that moves left and right, depending on how much you missed in sharpness. If all is well – the line becomes a point, hovering in the middle.

And the third – Easy Panorama. Put mode, press the shutter button and the camera led to one of the parties.Automation will do everything for you.

Liked – Nikon D3300

  • faster processor;
  • absence of AA-filter;
  • low noise;
  • wide dynamic range;
  • a port for a microphone;
  • excellent features for beginners – rangefinder, tips, easy panorama;
  • video recording 60p FullHD;
  • good autofocus.

Dislike – Nikon D3300

  • lack of “screwdriver”;
  • lack of regular HDR;
  • Unable to switch aperture in video;
  • lack of the Wi-Fi.

Output – Nikon D3300

Nikon D3300 can be purchased for around $ 500. Perhaps for “beginner” camera it may seem a little expensive, but there is much more useful – the port for a microphone, noise reduction is good, acceptable to 5 / s continuous shooting, decent video, tips, rangefinder, panoramic – in general, all that so urgently needed during the development of the novice. This camera TIPA nominated as “Best SLR Entry Level” and I think she deserves this award.

Many people choose their new camera Canon EOS 1200D based on many specifications previously read a half ton of forum discussions, 35 reviews online and offline magazines 5.

Other opposite what little sense of all these indicators and just want to get modern, affordable SLR that can even take pictures with automatic settings and shoot video better than a smartphone camera or compact camera.

Canon EOS 1200D

Here for the latest and made ​​Canon EOS 1200D – small, compact, not overloaded buttons and settings.

Delight than outside  Canon EOS 1200D?

Canon EOS 1200D

Canon EOS 1200D body than the older model 700D only a few millimeters in all dimensions. Materials are also very similar – aluminum chassis is matte plastic, not collecting fingerprints, and places his fingers covered with rough grip bands. In this regard, here nobody saved. In the hands of the camera, though there is a small but pretty good grip, as for the budget segment.

Canon EOS 1200D

In its place sits a familiar mode dial with a bunch of software, creative, automatic and manual presets. However, in order to get to the point of shooting video, you need to scroll it almost 270 degrees, if you shot before this photo mode «M». Next to the disk – the lever on / off button to activate the flash, exposure parameters control wheel and the shutter button. Pleased that the flash is activated only when the chamber so that the arbitrary open it in your bag or camera bag, you can not survive.

Canon EOS 1200D

Rear flaunts a 3-inch non-touch display and immovable with a resolution of 480 x 320 pixels. I recall that its predecessor, Canon EOS 1100D, he was at a diagonal and resolution (2.7 “, 320 x 240). Detail, color reproduction and viewing angles of the screen is enough for a comfortable and adequate assessment of photos right during shooting.

Canon EOS 1200D

Optical viewfinder covers 95% of the frame and has a magnification 0.5x. In the upper right corner from him perched small wheel diopter correction. To complete the picture is not enough unless the proximity sensor. It successfully replaces the button «Disp.». Clicking on it once, the information display is switched off and switched on again only when the shutter to display the image. When the shutter of the shutter button, it turns off again. In general, everything is convenient, do not worry.

Canon EOS 1200D

The remaining controls are on the right of the display to use with one hand (as compact). Then there is the start button video call / Live View button and zoom images, iris control button / exposure correction / deletion of pictures in calling menu «Q», Disp, menu, review the footage and a set of five keys on the one in the middle – ISO, balance white modes wiring focusing method and «Set».

Canon EOS 1200D

Of ports present on board: HDMI, USB, input for wired remote control. The usual slot for SD memory cards on the sidewall is not. He divides the breech living space with battery capacity of 860 mAh, which should last an average of 500 photos without shooting video.

What’s under the hood  Canon EOS 1200D?

Despite the fact that it is the most affordable SLR camera in the line of Canon EOS 1200D, it uses a very familiar to us by senior devices 18-megapixel CMOS sensor with a crop factor of 1.6x. This means that to get the equivalent focal length of the lens mounted on a full frame camera, you need to multiply the numbers that you see on the lens by 1.6. ISO sensitivity range from 100 units begins and ends with the value 12800. During the processing of the signal from the sensor responds Digic 4 processor.

In good conditions, shooting pictures pleasing to the eye and good color mikrokontrastom and portraits – color and skin grafting. If something is too much or not enough (color saturation, contrast, sharpness), then welcome to meet with the menu “Picture Style”. Depending on the choice of presets – “Auto, Standard, portrait, landscape, natural, sure,” as well as sliders “Sharpness, contrast, saturation and hue” is always possible to achieve the desired result. If for you and it would be too complicated and perverts, then select the appropriate scene mode on the disk and just click on the descent.

At night, have to raise the value of ISO. Of course, sooner or later you will run with the advent of noise and loss of detail. So, up to ISO 1600 to think about it is not necessary if you do not like to study photography at 100 magnification loupe. But ISO 3200 shumodav already shows its true face. But the balance of parts and the noise kept pretty well. For best results on such ISO, you can switch to RAW. 6400 and 12800 RAW format is becoming more of a necessity than a recommendation. In the image editor to squeeze out shots in this case is a much more. Printing pictures up to A3 format can safely directly from JPEG to ISO 1600. At 3200 I would limit the size of A4. Larger values ​​worth printing only after developing RAW.

Burst speed – 3 frames per second. In buffer placed 6 frames when shooting in RAW and more than 30 shots – in JPEG (more me just tired to push the shutter button). The tests were conducted with a fast card SDXC UHS-I 600X. For the average amateur photographer who occasionally need to shoot a series on the football pitch, or a passing expensive car, that’s enough for the eyes.

Module focusing 1200D is the same as in models 100D/600D – 9-point cross from one point in the middle. When a tip on the center point with the test lens EF-S 18-55mm F3.5-5.6 IS II and EF 50mm F1.4, autofocus worked with enthusiasm. Any plugging or protormazhivany noted. Quite really enjoy and focus tracking again on the central point. With extreme points situation may be only slightly worse. In general, claims to no autofocus.

Interestingly, the video capabilities 1200D almost equal to much more expensive higher-end models in the lineup. He is able to record in Full HD with frame rates of 30, 25, or 24 frames per second, and progressive. Available exposure modes and manual audio level adjustment, autofocus and wind filter. The quality of the video is outstanding and one of the best in terms of price / quality among competitors. With the right optics can shoot very decent videos. It would be nice to have and external microphone input, but in the budget camera it would seem even strange. In a pinch you can use an external recorder and then synchronize video with audio in the video editor.

I want to highlight mode “Night Portrait”. It is with this situation set for beginners often have problems as automatic does not always understand what result you want to get out and frames oiled and / or overexposed. This same preset helps make a good night portrait, night preservation conditions on the frame and correct study of person portrayed.

Another mode – “CA” or “Creative Auto”. It is for those who already thinks that in some cases we would like to get background blur, while others, on the contrary, make a sharp all in the frame, but how he does not know or does not want to disassemble. In this mode, you need only move the slider between more and less blurry background. Clear and convenient.

Initial camera in the line, Canon EOS 1200D nice to shoot in normal conditions – when you go for a walk with my friends / girlfriend / wife, arrange somewhere party etc. Even if they do not plan to take pictures, the camera does not draw bag, neck or over weight, and placed somewhere anywhere. But when I suddenly wanted to make a couple of shots, or take video interenoe moment, then 1200D right there. With a large and heavy SLR likely so would not leave and she just stayed at home.

Summary  Canon EOS 1200D

First glance at the Canon EOS 1200D, you might think that it is a toy for very beginners. But it turns out that it can take pictures and shoot video worse than devices with a price tag twice as high.
