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
Focus performance of 18-55mm kit lens was slow and sometimes innacurate
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...

Canon has done a good job of producing a DSLR camera for novice users. The EOS1200D is easy to operate, works well in auto mode and, with the aid of the Canon EOS Companion app, capable of providing the assistance novice users need to ease them from simpl...
Slow focusing in Live View, No touchscreen, No WiFi/NFC
Probably the most interesting thing about the new EOS 1200D is the accompanying app for iOS and Android. That said, Nikon offers something similar in its D3300 directly in the camera, so it may be a little frustrating to some that you need to download so...
Abstract: While there are many great cheap cameras and vlogging reviews for YouTube, if you really want to save money we suggest the Logitech C922x Pro webcam, which you can get for under $100 for all your streaming needs. It's an excellent cam for beginners as it...

Live View focus seems sluggish, Physical controls can be awkward to navigate
The Canon EOS Rebel T5 is relatively inexpensive and does take care of the basics. But I'd suggest stepping up to the more expensive T5i for a more satisfying experience....
