Techradar published a comprehensive review of the Canon Rebel T5i / EOS 700D. While this is an interesting “entry-level” DSLR, honestly I did expect more from Canon. Don’t get me wrong: the Rebel T5i / EOS 700D is a well performing camera, but the differences compared to its predecessor are really minimal. BTW, did you know that the Rebel T4i/EOS 650D was removed from the line-up while the Rebel T3i/EOS 600D is still on sale?

Rebel T5i / EOS 700D core specs (taken from B&H’s product page):

  • STM Lens Support for Quiet AF in Movies
  • 18.0MP APS-C CMOS Sensor
  • DIGIC 5 Image Processor
  • 3.0″ Vari-Angle Touchscreen LCD
  • ISO 100-12800, Expandable to 25600
  • Full HD 1080p Video with Continuous AF
  • 5.0 fps Continuous Shooting
  • 9-point All Cross-Type Autofocus
  • Multi Shot Noise Reduction
  • EF-S 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS STM Lens

In the conclusion techradar writes:

What we have in the shape of the Canon EOS 700D is basically an incremental upgrade from the Canon EOS 650D. It makes sense that the company has decided to keep the Canon EOS 600D in the lineup but removed the 650D altogether, since the two cameras are very similar.

Existing users of the Canon EOS 650D shouldn’t feel too put out by the fact that the camera has already been replaced, since the key internal factors, most notably the sensor and the processor, remain exactly the same.

One interesting factor here, though, is the new kit lens, which […] is an STM lens. This should mean that the camera and lens combination offers enhanced performance when in Live View and Movie mode when compared to the previous standard kit lens. Of course, you could always buy the new lens separately if you’re already a Canon EOS 650D owner.

Which Camera Is Harder To Destroy? (Canon Rebel T5i vs Nikon D5200)

The guys at SquareTrade wanted to know which camera among the Canon Rebel T5i/EOS 700D (price & specs) and the Nikon D5200 (price & specs) is more solid. So they dropped both cams on the ground (and in rain) to see which one, if one, will survive.
