Canon Rebel T6i and Rebel T6s DxOMark scores published (first Canon sensor to offer 12 stops DR)

Rebel T6s

DxOMark published their test results for the Canon Rebel T6i/EOS 750D and Rebel T6s/EOS 760D.

As you can see in the image above, the new 24MP sensor scores a bit better than the EOS 70D and EOS 7D Mark II, and, according to DxOMark, has more stop of dynamic range than any other Canon sensor.

About the Rebel T6s/EOS 760D DxOMark writes:

While it’s not our place to discuss why Canon should choose to introduce two models that vary mostly by their controls (although the 760D’s tracking AF capability in live view is likely a worthwhile feature), the sensor performance for the EOS 760D is intriguing. Canon has made significant advances over the previous generation sensor, particularly with regard to low ISO noise levels and improved dynamic range. While sensor performance is still behind the very best APS-C models, Canon appears to be taking up the challenge set by Sony, and while it’s still got some way to go, that has to be good news for the consumer.

About the Rebel T6i/EOS 750D DxOMark writes:

As an entry-level model the Canon EOS 750D (T6i) makes some compromises in layout and controls — for example, there’s no top plate LCD as found on the EOS 760D (T6s), but sensor performance is on par with the camera maker’s mid- and high-end models, the EOS 70D and the recently-introduced EOS 7D Mk II. While it’s true that the Canon sensors are behind the very best APS-C models in terms of low ISO performance (particularly noticeable when comparing dynamic range), the company is making some noteworthy advances.

Canon Rebel T6i/EOS 750D review (DPReview)

Rebel T6i

DPReview posted their full review of the Canon Rebel T6i/EOS 750D. From the conclusion:

Now that Canon has released two Rebels simultaneously, the biggest question for many is less likely to be ‘Should I get a Rebel?’ and more likely to be ‘Which Rebel should I get?’ From our perspective the answer is pretty clear. The T6i is a nice introduction to Canon glass, but unless you’re really stretched to spend the extra $100, the T6s gives you quite a bit more camera for your money. That hundred dollars gets you a rear thumb wheel, top plate LCD, and continuous AF in live view. In fact, if you desire things like automatic face detection and tracking of people and faces no matter where they move to within your frame, then the T6s’ ability to do exactly this in live view alone justifies the extra cost. And more usable live view is arguably desirable for a camera of this class, as its demographic may desire more automation and could do without the focus accuracy issues that can plague viewfinder AF. Read the full review at DPReview.

The Rebel T6i/EOS 750D gets a rating of 75%. I totally agree that you should get the Rebel T6s/EOS 760D if $100 more are not an issue.

Canon Rebel T6i/EOS 750D review (Photography Blog)

Rebel T6i

Photography Blog posted their Canon Rebel T6i/EOS 750D review. From the conclusion:

[…] the 750D […] is arguably the most significant generational leap forward since the 550D. Granted, on the outside it’s almost identical to its predecessor, but given the 700D’s ergonomics, control layout and touch interface are already excellent, that’s no bad thing. The big changes are under the skin, starting with the superb 24.2MP APS-C sensor. It gives the 750D the ability to generate incredibly clean images with low enough noise levels to make even ISO 12800 shots stand up to close scrutiny. Detail and colour reproduction are also first class, and the new exposure metering system delivers consistent results.

The EOS 750D/Rebel T6i gets a “Highly Recommended” and a rating of 4.5/5. Read the review at Photography Blog.
