Canon EOS Rebel T5 EF-S – Capture Dazzling Photos and Movies

The Canon EOS Rebel T5 camera comes with EF-S 18-55mm IS II Digital SLR lens which is ideal for potential photography lovers, families and SLR beginners. Canon EOS Rebel T5 is the perfect choice to capture pictures and movies which are simply amazing. It boasts 18 MP CMOS sensor and DIGIC 4 processor to capture high resolution pictures and record HD videos. It features 3” LCD screen that enables Live View recording.

Rebel T5 EFS Overview:

Canon EOS Rebel T5 comes with dual-layer, 63-zone metering system and enhanced ISO range for great operation in low light conditions.

With all these features, Rebel T5 is ready to capture anything. With its lightweight and proven design, and Feature Guide, the Canon EOS Rebel T5 gives you easier and faster photography experience than ever.

Rebel T5 Performance:

The camera is efficient enough for regular kids-n-pets photography unless they are not moving erratically or fast and light is not very low. The predecessor Rebel T3i delivers better burst performance and single-shot speed at same price. Canon EOS Rebel T5 takes only a half a second to turn on, focus and shoot. It is good at 0.3 second in ample light but it is slow in dim light. When all the points are used, you may be risking of not focusing on the thing you want. It works pretty well while taking consecutive shots with lag of just 0.4 second between shots. The flash recycles quite instantly with 0.8 second while taking flash shots.

Is The Nikon D3300 SLR Camera You Are Looking For?

Comparisons:

Nikon D3300 DSLR camera faces stiff competition in the entry-level DSLR arena but manages to hold its own due to its high-performance APS-C image sensor, high ISO sensitivity range, 60 fps Full HD video support and ease of use.

Some of the notable competitors of Nikon D3300 include Canon EOS 100D, FujiFilm X-A1 and Sony A3000. Nikon D3300 offers superior high ISO performance as well as much better video performance (60 fps 1080p compared to 30 fps of EOS 100D) than Canon EOS 100D. The camera's still and video quality compares well with the highest performing competitors in the segment such as Sony A3000 and FujiFilm X-A1.

Recommendations:

Alternatives to the Nikon D3300 camera in beginner-level DSLR segment include Sony A3000, Samsung NX 2000 and the FujiFilm X-A1. Samsung NX 2000 is much lighter in comparison and also offers a touchscreen display as well as Wifi and NFC connectivity. Sony A3000 offers comparable image quality to the Nikon D3300 at a lower price point though Nikon clearly has an edge in terms of build-quality. Fujifilm X-A1 is another good alternative with in-built Wifi and articulated LCD display though with a lower (16 MP) resolution.

Class-leading high-resolution, Full HD 60 fps capability, numerous beginner-friendly features and a dependable build quality make Nikon D3300 an excellent entry-level DSLR camera.
