The editors liked
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
Inexpensive entry point into the Canon digital SLR ecosystem
Good overall picture quality
Relatively simple controls
While it doesn't stand out particularly
The Canon EOS Rebel T5 does produce nice photos typical of its price class
Its performance isn't bad
And it has a comfortable design
Affordable
Textured coating
Optical viewfinder
The editors didn't like
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
Abstract: I plan to complete a full Canon EOS Rebel T5 / 1200D review in the future. For now, please review the specifications, comparison charts and product images.For many more comparisons, go to the Camera Back View Comparison page.For many more comparisons, go ...
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...
The 1200D is a superb option for photographers wishing to make the jump into the world of DSLR photography. The controls are simple and accessible, with a range of fully automatic shooting modes, and the EOS Companion app helps users get to know their cam...

The feature set is limited, even by entry-level standards
While it's a perfectly fine camera when you're making the jump from a point-and-shoot, there are better choices than the Canon EOS Rebel T5....
Over the last few years the camera industry has undergone some turbulent changes. Though most of Canon's competitors have been desperate just to stay above water, Canon has been leveraging its advantage as the top selling brand by keeping things steady. H...

Decent viewfinder-based performance for entry-level product, impressive image quality throughout, huge range of EOS lenses available, competitive price
Live view is poor, JPEG processing is a little harsh, plasticky build, compact system cameras may undermine its existence, kit lens limitations
The Canon EOS 1200D holds enough weight to keep the entry-level DSLR market relevant, although with compact system cameras adding an additional option it's not as cut and dry as it once was. If you want to use the rear LCD screen to take pictures t...
Affordable, well built, capable of professional looking results for a budget price, intuitive operation
Fixed LCD screen only, no builtin wireless connectivity, maximum capture speed is modest if you're attempting action shots
Whilst the 18 megapixel EOS 1200D might not offer all the bells and whistles of models higher up the range such as a tilting and swiveling LCD screen, it is possible to get professional looking results out of it if daring to stray from the auto everything...
