Uncomfortable for large hands
It's the small size and light weight of the Canon EOS Rebel SL1 that draw praise from reviewers and users alike. The SL1 is "a mature camera…that's not a burden to bring along," and is suitable for family photographers looking for an easy-to-use DSLR came...
If the personal choice "C.Fn II-3 Highlight tone priority" is selected, bleached-out highlights, as in the above shot, are prevented. It also delivers, surprisingly enough, a slightly higher dynamic range. The disadvantages of the highlight tone priority
