The lens
While obviously made down to a price
Is very fine
Delivering consistently sharp and detailed images. By keeping the zoom range to a modest 3X there are few
In any
Optical compromises. It is one of the best kit lenses we have tested.

The editors didn't like
The viewfinder is a little cramped and dim by comparison with DSLRs with true prism finders. This is nitpicking and certainly no deal breaker
No sensor improvements since 550D
Cheap construction
Overall system still large
Art filters only usable in Live View
Slow Live View focusing
Similar price to the Canon EOS 700D AF system only features one cross
Type point Small design means small battery
Some users might find the design a little cramped. No built-in Wi-Fi. Short battery life compared to other SLRs

Highly responsive touchscreen; Petite and lightweight design; Rubberised handgrip; Effective Auto Lighting Optimizer; Image Quality at high ISO; Smooth and silent AF performance; Live preview for creative filters
Only one crosstype AF point; Limited amount of AF points compared with its closest rivals; No cheaper than the Canon EOS 700D; Small battery
With four DSLRs to choose from in Canon's EOS for beginners range, the Canon EOS 100D sits below the Canon EOS 600D despite it being £170 more expensive. For the extra outlay you'll have the option to push the sensitivity higher in low light, take adva...
World's smallest DSLR. Truly compact body, Good photo and video quality, 1080p movies with respectable continuous AF, Excellent touch-screen interface, Microphone input, Remote control over USB using PCs or Macs, New kit lens with very quiet AF and non-rotating barrel.
Modest continuous shooting speed at 4fps, No built-in Wifi and no Canon accessory either, Screen doesn't flip-out, it's fixed in position, Basic auto exposure bracketing of three frames, No auto-panorama mode in-camera, Non adjustable AF area size in Live View, Loses size advantage once you fit most Canon lenses.
As someone who's been using mirror-less cameras a great deal over the past year I admit to approaching the EOS SL1 / 100D with some skepticism. But once you get it in your hands it really is a very enjoyable camera to use, delivering the quality, hand...

Very small and light with good grip for small to medium-size hands, High ISO shots are quite usable, even above ISO 6400, Excellent LCD and responsive touchscreen, Special coating minimizes fingerprint smudges from touchscreen use, Hybrid AF II / STM lens combo is noticeably improved for live view and movie shooting, Useful night modes, Chromatic aberration correction works well, Stereo mic jac
May be too small for those with larger hands, Grip may be insufficient for use with larger lenses, AF illuminator integrated into flash (must have flash engaged to use it), Flash produces red-eye in Night portrait mode, Non-STM lenses struggle in live view and in movie servo AF, Default dynamic range lags behind its peers,
Canon took the standard Rebel and whittled it into a smaller body, removing only a few features, while adding one very important one: improved live view autofocus. The result is a mature camera for the family photographer that's not a burden to bring ...
