While the Canon EOS 1200D isn't exactly going to dazzle in terms of its specification, it has a lot going for it when you consider its launch price of just under £350 without the kit lens.Compared to some competing models such as the Nikon D3300 and th...
The Canon EOS 1200D / Rebel T5 is a solid, if unspectacular, upgrade of the 3-year-old 1100D / T3 camera, principally adding a new 18 megapixel sensor, bigger LCD screen, more control over movie recording, a point-and-shoot Scene Intelligent Auto mode, a...

Anyone thinking Canon would push boundaries with their entry-level model will be disappointed with this DxOMark sensor score but it's worth remembering the sensor and imaging chain performs well, just not at the same level as more expensive rival options...

Abstract: Get a grip. The last notable change to the T5 is an exterior upgrade. Unlike the T5i (and the other Rebel Txi models before it), the T3 did not have a rubberized grip covering on the handgrip or thumbrest. This has now been rectified with the Canon T5, an...
Inexpensive entry point into the Canon digital SLR ecosystem, Good overall picture quality, Relatively simple controls
Focus performance of 18-55mm kit lens was slow and sometimes innacurate, SD card slot in battery compartment
The bottom line with the EOS 1200D is that it's not a digital SLR camera to go for if you are looking for anything more than a beginner's model. Its relatively simplistic controls and no frills physical design are no match for experienced hands, but they...

The price. This is a DSLR, with the option of fully automatic point and shoot or with full user control, at a price under that of many compact cameras. And in the important area of image capture and processing no pennies have been squeezed to reduce the m
The price! There is evidence in the quality of materials and in the feel of the controls that this is a camera made down to a price. Pentax and Nikon entry models, while a little dearer, don't feel so much like pauper siblings
It is hard to make an assessment of a camera like the Canon 1200D. If it were a car we would say that it will get you from A to B every time, but it is not a Jaguar. It is aimed at amateurs of modest ambition, but do they need the bulk of a DSLR? On the o...
