Canon EOS 700D Digital SLR Camera - (EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS STM Lens, 18MP, CMOS Sensor) 3 inch LCD

Product Information

The available white balance settings are Auto, Daylight, Shade, Cloudy, Tungsten, Fluorescent and Custom; there is no way to enter a Kelvin value manually. You can fine-tune any of the presets using the White Balance Correction feature. The ISO speed can be changed by pressing the ISO button and turning the control wheel in front of it. You do not have to hold down the button while turning the wheel. The ISO speed can be set from ISO 100 to ISO 12800 in full-stop increments. If you turn ISO Expansion on in the Custom Functions menu, you can even dial in ISO 25600; a boosted setting. Auto ISO is also available. The chosen ISO speed is also displayed in the viewfinder. In use, we found the Canon EOS 700D / Rebel T5i to be a responsive and versatile camera that almost never got in the way of picture taking. As noted earlier, the auto focus was fast when using the optical viewfinder, and not always painstakingly slow when using Live View, either. Its continuous shooting speed is good for its class, though its six-frame raw buffer is smaller than we'd like. It takes a bit of time for the camera to fully start up if you wait for the sensor cleaning cycle to be completed, but as sensor cleaning can always be interrupted at a half-press of the shutter release, this is not a real issue. The only thing we found to be truly and somewhat inexplicably slow was entering Live View - it invariably took several seconds for the camera to raise its mirror and display the live image. The EOS 700D's built-in pop-up flash features a built-in Integrated Speedlite Transmitter for controlling up to two groups of off-camera Speedlites without the need for an external transmitter. Note that it doesn't have a more advanced PC Sync port for connecting the camera to external lights, limiting the 700Ds use in studio environments. There's also the expected hotshoe for use with one of Canon's external flashguns. Take complete creative control of your images with PIXMA and imagePROGRAF PRO professional photo printers. Highlight Tone Priority is a custom function which can be enabled from the menu. Use of this custom function improves highlight detail by expanding the camera's dynamic range in the highlights. As you can see from these examples, Highlight Tone Priority reduced the extent of highlight blow-out considerably.

You also get access to thirty years' worth of lenses in Canon's EF and EF-S system, so you'll have no trouble finding the lens you need to take the images you want. From fisheye and wide-angle right through to macro and super telephoto, Canon has an option to suit your creative desires. And it doesn't stop there, as you can use lenses from the likes of Sigma and Tamron too!Eyecup Ef, E-series Dioptric Adjustment Lens with Rubber Frame Ef, Eyepiece Extender EP-EX15II, Angle Finder C More than ever before, the EOS 700d is designed to appeal to owners of compacts who have outgrown their camera and want to step-up to something that gives better results without being too complicated. The touch-screen operation has been seamlessly integrated, offering the ability to take a picture with one press of the screen. Even if you prefer using the viewfinder and hate touch-screens and the need to hold the camera at arm's length to use it, you'll still appreciate the ability to review your images by swiping from side to side and pinching to magnify them (at least we did).

The official launch price of the Canon EOS 700D / Rebel T5i has dropped slightly compared to the previous model's full RRP, perhaps its most attractive feature when compared directly against its predecessor, especially as the STM kit lens is a better partner, especially for shooting video. So while the EOS 700D / Rebel T5i may not advance the mass-market EOS camera in any way, it is at least cheaper and comes with a better lens, and just as importantly its main rivals haven't overtaken it, making the EOS 700D / Rebel T5i still deserving of our Highly Recommended award. Although the 700D’s optical viewfinder only offers 95% coverage of a scene, the eye-catching 3-inch, 1040k-dot LCD screen on the camera’s rear is in the 3:2 aspect ratio, and thus stills fill the whole frame in capture. sec (1/2 or 1/3 stop increments), Bulb (Total shutter speed range.

Specifications

The Live View button is within easy reach of your right thumb. Using this button it is easy to enter Live View, but it takes a surprising amount of time for the camera to actually display the live image (think several seconds). A grid line display and very useful live histogram can be enabled to help with composition and exposure, and you can zoom in by up to 10x magnification of the image displayed on the LCD screen. Focusing in Live View via a half-press of the shutter release as normal. The 700D includes a 9-point diamond AF arrangement that is the same as that found on the 650D. Although the nine points are far less than some rival cameras, the good news is that all are of the more sensitive cross-type variety and are thus sensitive to horizontal and vertical subjects and movements. Other stand-out features that add up to a great DSLR include effective continuous auto-focusing during movie recording, something that DSLRs have always struggled with or simply not offered at all, stereo rather than mono sound recording, 14-bit DIGIC 5 processor, fast 5fps burst shooting, built-in HDR and hand-held night shooting modes, and a slightly more refined user interface. The innovative Hybrid AF system still doesn't solve the camera's sluggish Live View auto-focusing, though, something that Sony's SLT range in particular has already overcome.

You’ll be able to produce 1080p videos with the Canon EOS 700D. It offers automatic and manual control and enables Autofocus and continuous focusing when shooting videos. This camera will let you record videos like a pro with its near-silent Movie Servo AF which the aid of compatible lenses. And, on top of that, you can easily record stereo quality sounds with its built-in microphone, or simple connect an external microphone to isolate the noise and capture production quality audios. Explore Different Angles The 700D, however, was introduced with a new kit lens — a new version of the existing EF-S 18–55mm that employs Canon's STM (stepping motor) technology. It also (for the first time in a Canon 18–55mm lens) has a front section that does not rotate.

CANON EOS 700D 18.0MP WITH 18-55MM KIT LENS FULL HD DSLR CAMERA

We tested the EOS 700D with the new EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS STM lens, which offers a standard focal range for a kit lens and crucially includes image stabilisation. This is important for Canon, as competitors like Sony, Olympus and Pentax all offer image stabilisation in their DSLRs. The difference between Canon (and Nikon) and the others is that Sony, Olympus and Pentax have opted for stabilisation via the camera body, rather than the lens, which therefore works with their entire range of lenses. Canon's system is obviously limited by which lenses you choose, but it does offer the slight advantage of showing the stabilising effect through the viewfinder. Canon and Nikon also claim that a lens-based anti-shake system is inherently better too, but the jury's out on that one.
