Dave, I know it is a subjective thing but your reviews, your on screen manner and the points that you cover are exactly what I look for in a review. You give relevant information in a easy to digest format so keep doing what you do please :)
One great feature of the 60D is that it's weather sealed. I owe a T4i and am thinking about the 60D as a 2nd body - and especially for light rain shoots. - Caveat: few of my lens are weather sealed.
This review & comparison is even much more than I expected. And much respect for not prompting people to just buy every single new thing out there and giving people cheaper options. More power to you!
Dave, once again you give us a wonderful review. When I saw the 19min mark on the video, the first thing I thought was "wow, how much work did he have for preparing that?". And then there's the quality of everything, with an amazing amount of really important information, explained in a soft but entertaining way. I hope teaching is one of your jobs, 'cause it seems you do it perfectly. All the best!
It will be just fine - I have had my T4i and older rebel XT out in all kinds of conditions - just don't let it get soaked but damp, cold, freezing, light rain are all OK.
I must say, I looked at a bunch of videos out there for this particular comparison and couldn't find something as close as this in term of quality and details. Subscribed!
very nice share ,thank you .I steel don't underastand, wich one is the best.I have a canon 550D with a 18/135 lens.I a very good camera, thank you once again for your explain.
The Canon Rebel T3i takes the consumer level dSLR a couple steps closer to the mid-level Canon 60D with the addition of the rotating rear LCD screen, remote flash firing, and in-camera processing features. I bought the T2i first, then decided to upgrade to the T3i, buy it on: #amzn.to/1dD9uGD
I have to say... between you, thatNikonGuy and Mr Neumann....you guys have the patience of saints. You guys are very informative and are just providing everyone with a little bit of education and information. Yet some people still think that they are owed something. I've seen a couple people attempt to bait you into arguments and I admire that you don't let certain comments get to you. Keep up the good work. For an amateur, (maybe advanced amateur now), I'm impressed.
look up MAGIC LANTERN free software - get that quick focus mode back and shoot video in RAW just like the top of the line dslr's in the canon family - im surprised more people do not use it - you will love it i promise

Dave Dugdale hai dave thx for this video, can you please upload a video of 60d vs 700d, i am strugling badly to select one of these two, please help me with it. NOTE - video auto focus is not big matter for me.
Well done review. Most reviews we've seen, are not with the actual products, but comments on the specs of the camera's; just giving an opinion from on screen research or on paper. Keep up the good work, we are marking a thumbs up for this review and info. We own a 60D.
Thanks Dave for your comments. I have a T4i which I enjoy and I have not experienced any 'crashing' moments with the unit at all. One of the things I would like to know is - what camera can rebound from a fall of, say, 3 feet and work the way it used to.
I'm not gonna lie, your videos don't have as many views as they should considering how accurate, objective, and open you are but at the same time you should be glad because you don't seem to have any negativity in your following. That's something to be excited for. Keep up the good work!
sorry for my english. first of all your review is so user friendly this is what you need if you ara beginner or pro level. main thing is that you explain step by step. its priceless!!!
Dave, your videos are incredibly informative, easy to understand and insanely well edited. The comparisons you make are crystal clear and you really do separate yourself out from a lot of the rubbish that's on youtube. I can tell you spend a lot of time doing these videos (editing etc) so it's a treat to see someone on youtube that actually does it with passion. Thanks, I'll be subscribing to you (and hopefully trade in my 1100d to a 650d!)
Dave, I'm saying goodbye to my t4i, and upgrading to 6D, wish I watched your videos when I was using my t4i.... guys tune-in, he's got allot of good videos!
Just finished your video course on T4i/650D. Gotta say it made a lot of difference. I feel really comfortable with the camera considering that I only have had it for a week. Keep up the great work, David!
Hello Dave. My compliments on this great review. Very detailed and one of the best (video-) reviews I have ever seen on the web. Bought the 650D/T4i for my father and suggested your extensive course for it. Great job, keep up the good work.
I just got myself a Canon 60D during a black Friday sale on refurbished cameras in Canon's store. I am absolutely pleased with it so far, but I need to get out there to take some real photos. Thanks for the comparison!
I'm trying to decide between the T4i and the D5200 and have been watching reviews non-stop for weeks. Yours are by far the best -- most thorough, well-produced, and well-delivered. Thanks a lot. I'll try to buy some gear on your site so you can keep doing these.
I'm 16 and I am taking photos since I was 12. I watched lots of videos on youtube that helped me to improve my photography. Just wanted to thank you for your nice and helpful videos. I recently got my 60D and after watching this video I'm glad I did that. Have a nice day :)
I am the 900th person to like this video as I believe that you are doing a GREAT job in explaining the difference to novices likes us the difference between the SLRs. Keep up the great job.
Dave, You not only have warm and inviting presence on screen, I absolutely love your detailed and fair-minded presentation. Superb supporting graphics and elegant delivery. I'm a great fan today.
Recently purchased t4i (first Dslr) and am so glad I found your videos and website. Thanks. Just wish I had found it prior to purchase. It would have saved me weeks of researching and review comparing, etc. Purchased T4i lesson from your website. Currently more a photography advanced amateur, but here's to hoping for a great new future in video making. Cheers.
Loving your videos. I've been rocking a 30D for so long and I finally upgraded to a used 650D today. It is sad to know that the image sensor hasn't changed since 2009, but I'm excited to finally be able to shoot video, have wireless control over my Speedlite, and be able to fully use apps like DSLR Controller.
One of the best reviews i've ever seen, clear, right to the point, no wasting time! Great job Dave and thank you very much for the time and quality you put on this preview. By the way i'm getting a T4i. I had a T2i and after tree months the screen viewer turned off by itself, send it back and I've got the refound. But after all I really like this camera T4i. Cheers, happy new year!!
Thanks Dave your videos have been a big help and shot my first wedding using DSLR's and loved the result. The T4i is my second DSLR and I love it and fits my budget well. Now you can get it for $600 on Amazon and I recommend it as your first DSLR.
Dave, fantastic video comparison and review. Its answered many of my questions, I've used a Canon XA-10 for upwards of a year now, and I've recognized its limitations in terms of cinematic quality and was looking for something that I could stretch some artistic muscle with on a budget. The T4i looks like a fantastic camera for the price, and I can attest to how nice the touch screen is, the XA-10 has the same feature (And UI). This will definitely help with my transition to the path of the DSLR.
Thanks for uploading. I'm a starting filmmaker and just bought the 650D and asked myself I made the right choice. Thanks to this video I think I did! Like to learn more.
I began shooting with the 60D and now use an A7 III. It's fun to look back on this video and see just how far camera's have come. I love your comment about the video-af especially :D Kind Regards from Denmark Jørgen
The best review I've seen so far. The camera's are extensively used and put to the challenge during the review for us to see. Specs aren't just read out loud and you cover things that matter. I have an old Nikon D50. I really want to replace it.
So many videos seem to be promoting or reviewing one camera. Your review felt shorter than its duration due how you spoke and compared the cameras. Thank you for this wonderful review! I will check out more.
Great comparison. Very informative. I own a 60D myself and I love it to death. I also want to just point out that the stock music you use at 2:47 is the exact same that we use in the intro video for the church at which I work. Made me grin a little. I actually like it.
Wow this is a REALLY great review! I love how in depth you get, and how you explain everything. I subscribed and added this to my favorites. You're now one of my favorite camera guys on TH-cam (:
Hi Dave, I keep going back to your videos because of the quality. I'm guessing whatever you do for your day job, that you are very detailed oriented....Great videos.
Hi Dave, thank you so much for this fantastic video, i am looking into upgrading and not sure which to go for with the 650D or the 60D, I have a 1100D (not sure what it's called over the pond, Rebel T3 I think), so for the upgrade, which I am looking at for picture quality, would you say the 650D would be the better choice? Thanks so much again for this fantastic video.
I have been watching quite a few reviews and by far this was one of the best! Great screenshots whilst you commented and great comparison review between the two products. Great work Dave from, from the UK.
I truly have to agree with sinetwo, you definately seperate yourself from these other videos that nothing but take up your valuable time. Your videos are very straight forward and clear. I always enjoy watching your videos and for that I subscribed to your channel. You inspire me take better and more photos and learn more about the camera itself. I can't wait till the 7d Mark II comes out cause i'm interested in buying it. I look forward to your next video. Keep up the good videos!!
Tremendous video....you clearly answered any question I may had, or comparison I would've needed. And the video looked fabulous. Keep up the great work, sir, and thanks for your efforts & wisdom!
Great review video Dave, very useful for us folks across the pond in the UK who like myself are deciding between the 60D and 650d. I love how professional the video edit is, almost reminds me of a Apple product video, very classy!! (compliment by the way!!).
I've found that the rear dial on the 60D is almost reason enough to buy it over the Rebel cameras. SO helpful. I agree that image quality should be priority, but you also have to think about productivity. Some seemingly small features can make the biggest difference when used in the real world. The rear dial, top LCD, weather resistance, and Kelvin WhiteBalance(Yes!) are some features that make the 60D totally worth it for me. Oh and Magic Lantern interface on 60D is much better than t2i
I really like the way you tell only and just the truth, what is really going in your mind and your truly thoughts. I am a beginner, I dont have a DSLR, but if I could managed to get enough cash I was thinking in getting the 7D, but after watching your video Im not thinking the same way(I think Im getting more and more confused). I really loved your timelapse works too, the night scene with the shooting stars amazed me...wow. You've just won another subscriber !
Thanks for the well rounded review video. The wife and I are upgrading from an XSi, and recently purchased a T4i. Unsure about its performance, we were wondering if we should have gone 60D. I find the video autofocusing mode VERY gimmicky, but have not handled a 60D to compare. We also purchased the 40mm 2.8 lens with the camera, and find that it is very imprecise and slow to focus. Much less than impressed with it, and neither our 18-55 or 50mm 1.8 is any better.
Great stuff, Dave, very professional. I have been shooting broadcast news (local and national) for many years with the big 20 lb cameras. I recently purchased my first DSLR, the T4i. I love it so far but have much to learn. The STM 18 - 135 lens sold me big time as I love that lens as a b-roll camera, handheld and moving around. The auto focus is slick. The 50 mm 1.8 is a sweet lens for primary interviews with great bokeh. I plan to purchase your video series. Thanks! Mark from Markymarkmedia
Hey Dave, You've absolutely packed everything you could into this video about both these cameras, which makes your review probably one of the best. Even better than Kai's review over at DigitalRev. I love the music and the quality of your test videos inside. Did you do the editing for this video? What software did you use? Thanks -Tyrone.
Dave, your reviews are just great than any one on TH-cam. We are waiting for your 70D review, coz its a new crop sensor with digic 5+, and I hope you can make good comparison between the image quality between the old crop sensor. :)
Just bought this camera and it's amazing 😍 people just don't understand that auto focus on video isn't really needed because otherwise focus puller job role wouldn't exist... everything is done manually when you do a film degree like myself 🖒💯
awesome review... Was really bugged with the choice of 60D vs 650D. Thanks Dave for clearing some of the stuff up, esp on the sensor. I use a 450D so this will be a definite upgrade. Thanks again and a great job!
wow ive got to say mate, AMAZING comparison. This is lterally the best comparisons between cameras ive seena nd ive been searching heaps over the last few days. I really wish there was focus peaking on the 650D but apart from that its great
Dave, your simple, casual, natural and subtle presentation style ROCKS! Dude, you just make it seem so comfortable. Good show buddy. I've tried to make my life rock with an iphone 5 and just got schooled BIG TIME about how that is a bad idea. I'm getting ready to start video blogging. Got the light set-ups, backdrops, teleprompter and ready to get the camera. Which would you suggest? is auto-video focus a factor in what i want to do? T4i or 60D.......?
Very informative and practical for the common user. Just focuses on the realistic factors required for choosing camera which is more value than the nitty gritties of pixel level differences usually talked about much in other reviews that never impact the human eye.
Wow, thanks for that great video! Most videos especially when they're almost 20 minutes long, I can never watch all the way through. But EASILY I watched through the whole thing and it was very enjoyable, and I loved how you got right down with the facts after a minute or so. Thanks for putting them together!
Really well made review. I'm looking to purchase a new camera and the T4i really caught my attention, especially for the touch screen focus for video recording and affordability. It was good to be guided through the comparisons and also what the future might hold. I really wish that Canon hadn't removed the quick focus option on the T4i, super handy. Thanks for the for the review.
Extremely helpful! I just bought the Canon 60D and was wondering if maybe I should've bought the T4i...I do really like the touch screen, but now that I've made my purchase, I think I'll be plenty happy with the 60D. Now I have to save up for some quality lenses! Looking forward to watching more of your videos too! Thank you so very much!
Well done Dave. A used T2i with the EF-S 18-135 is a great first-time DSLR setup. You can currently find this combo in good to excellent condition for around $600 US for both. High quality stills and HD video for a small price. Just take the time to learn how to operate it!
Man, this is by far the greatest camera comparison I've seen on the net. Straight to the point no BS! Can you help me decide please? I'm torn between 60D and D7000. I'm really scared of the back focusing and hot pixels issue of D7000 while 60D's still very expensive here in Manila and I guess belittled by the other one in almost every aspect but video. This is going to be my fist dslr coming from a sony cybershot and canon's sx50 hs.
Excellent tutorial comparing two great cameras. I have been looking at DSLR cameras for a while and this video was very useful in distinguishing the key features between the two cameras.
This is really fantastic and useful for me as I'm currently weighing up my options thanks so much for everything mate keep up the fantastic work you are making us all better photographers
12 ปีที่แล้ว
I just spent 3 wks in Asia shooting everyday with the T3i. Loved that it was lightweight compare to the full frame Canon. I am giving the T3i to my kid for Christmas and updated to the T4i. Love it a lot, especially the new lens. I think the T4i is worth the upgrade, especially from T2i. (gave it away also) At this time of the year you can get it on sale for $799 with the new kit. Great price for that camera.
Here in Denmark the T4i is called the Canon EOS 650D. It marks the full cirkel in terms of model number from the very first Canon EOS from Canon, the Canon EOS 650 from 1987. I used the analog EOS 650 a lot back then, and it still works.
Same dilemma!!!! The 60d and 650d are brilliant cameras in their own ways. I'm leaning more towards the 60d. The only thing holding me back is the possibility of an upcoming replacement.
Depends on your budget, I brought my 1st DSLR a while ago and I went for the 60D. I didn't even consider the 1100d or and of the real entry level DSLR's. I did also look at the the 600D/650D too. Some would say that between the two in this video, If you want to get into video, choose the 650D. Where as if you want to get into stills choose the 60D, but you still have the video feature if you want.
Dave, I know nothing about cameras... in fact I don't even own one. But I am interested in video quality and production and I have to say, your presentation was so good that I watched the whole video - all 19 minutes, which was a surprise to me! So, thanks, I learned loads. Excellent on every level! Cheers, Mark
I don't know why but you look like a super kind guy
Dave, I know it is a subjective thing but your reviews, your on screen manner and the points that you cover are exactly what I look for in a review. You give relevant information in a easy to digest format so keep doing what you do please :)
One great feature of the 60D is that it's weather sealed. I owe a T4i and am thinking about the 60D as a 2nd body - and especially for light rain shoots. - Caveat: few of my lens are weather sealed.
This review & comparison is even much more than I expected. And much respect for not prompting people to just buy every single new thing out there and giving people cheaper options. More power to you!
But Dave, Dave!! :-) At ISO 6400 I could def see, that the T4i-image had less noise!!
Dave, once again you give us a wonderful review. When I saw the 19min mark on the video, the first thing I thought was "wow, how much work did he have for preparing that?". And then there's the quality of everything, with an amazing amount of really important information, explained in a soft but entertaining way. I hope teaching is one of your jobs, 'cause it seems you do it perfectly. All the best!
Thank you so much for making this video, I am hoping to get the 60D in 6 months or so and this really helped my research.
It will be just fine - I have had my T4i and older rebel XT out in all kinds of conditions - just don't let it get soaked but damp, cold, freezing, light rain are all OK.
can you explain how you recorded this video! I'm so impressed by the quality! can you tell me from camera- lens and lights!
I wasn't even aware of the quick focus mode on my 60D until watching this video. You basically parted clouds for me. Thanks so much.
Imagine if you were accidently comparing the same images from one of the cameras the whole time. lol.
I must say, I looked at a bunch of videos out there for this particular comparison and couldn't find something as close as this in term of quality and details. Subscribed!
very nice share ,thank you .I steel don't underastand, wich one is the best.I have a canon 550D with a 18/135 lens.I a very good camera, thank you once again for your explain.

Honestly, this was on of the best review videos I've seen for any product, not just cameras. Well done, sir.
So what camera did you use to record this video?
Well done review. Most reviews we've seen, are not with the actual products, but comments on the specs of the camera's; just giving an opinion from on screen research or on paper. Keep up the good work, we are marking a thumbs up for this review and info. We own a 60D.

Keep up the great work, David!
Hello Dave. My compliments on this great review. Very detailed and one of the best (video-) reviews I have ever seen on the web. Bought the 650D/T4i for my father and suggested your extensive course for it. Great job, keep up the good work.
Being a beginner in SLR photography. The touch screen on the 650D sealed the deal for me.
Thanks for the review.
I just got myself a Canon 60D during a black Friday sale on refurbished cameras in Canon's store. I am absolutely pleased with it so far, but I need to get out there to take some real photos. Thanks for the comparison!
I'm trying to decide between the T4i and the D5200 and have been watching reviews non-stop for weeks. Yours are by far the best -- most thorough, well-produced, and well-delivered. Thanks a lot. I'll try to buy some gear on your site so you can keep doing these.
I'm 16 and I am taking photos since I was 12. I watched lots of videos on youtube that helped me to improve my photography. Just wanted to thank you for your nice and helpful videos. I recently got my 60D and after watching this video I'm glad I did that. Have a nice day :)
Hands down. Best video review for any gadget ever.
You're the first person I have seen in a video that knows how to smartly and concisely cut to the chase. Excellent video
I am the 900th person to like this video as I believe that you are doing a GREAT job in explaining the difference to novices likes us the difference between the SLRs. Keep up the great job.
*Ridiculously* thorough. OMG. Amazing amount of work went into this video. How dare anybody down-vote this?!!
Hello from Mauritius!
4 years later, still a brilliant video! Thanks Dave!
Dave,
You not only have warm and inviting presence on screen, I absolutely love your detailed and fair-minded presentation. Superb supporting graphics and elegant delivery. I'm a great fan today.

you have helpped me soo much, buying my first camera. because of you, i am buying a T4i
Dave your really good at making reviews as well as photography, I got my T3i after watching one of your comparison. Thank you.
I am a Brazilian going to the US next month and your video has helped to me so much to decide what camera to buy! Thanks a lot! :)
I began shooting with the 60D and now use an A7 III. It's fun to look back on this video and see just how far camera's have come. I love your comment about the video-af especially :D

and this was 7 years ago imagine what the future will be
The best review I've seen so far. The camera's are extensively used and put to the challenge during the review for us to see. Specs aren't just read out loud and you cover things that matter. I have an old Nikon D50. I really want to replace it.

Agreed. I've been looking everywhere for a review like this and it really helped make a decision.
I've found that the rear dial on the 60D is almost reason enough to buy it over the Rebel cameras. SO helpful. I agree that image quality should be priority, but you also have to think about productivity.
Some seemingly small features can make the biggest difference when used in the real world. The rear dial, top LCD, weather resistance, and Kelvin WhiteBalance(Yes!) are some features that make the 60D totally worth it for me.
Oh and Magic Lantern interface on 60D is much better than t2i
I really like the way you tell only and just the truth, what is really going in your mind and your truly thoughts. I am a beginner, I dont have a DSLR, but if I could managed to get enough cash I was thinking in getting the 7D, but after watching your video Im not thinking the same way(I think Im getting more and more confused).
I really loved your timelapse works too, the night scene with the shooting stars amazed me...wow. You've just won another subscriber !
Very good review. I like that fact that you appear to be unbiased!
Thanks Dave! I look forward to viewing more of your videos. I've tried to do my homework on my but found your videos were a huge help!
Hi Dave:
Thank you so much for your time and effort to make our job easier to finalize our decision. It was a very nice comparison
Thanks for the well rounded review video.
The wife and I are upgrading from an XSi, and recently purchased a T4i. Unsure about its performance, we were wondering if we should have gone 60D.
I find the video autofocusing mode VERY gimmicky, but have not handled a 60D to compare. We also purchased the 40mm 2.8 lens with the camera, and find that it is very imprecise and slow to focus. Much less than impressed with it, and neither our 18-55 or 50mm 1.8 is any better.
Marvelous review Dave! Really considering to buy a T4i but the video focus problem is now beating me to get a 7D. Thanks so much for the review!
THIS REVIEW WAS ONE OF THE BEST I EVER SAW!! LOVELY COMPARISON!
I'm going with the 60D. Mainly because of its build quality.
Great stuff, Dave, very professional. I have been shooting broadcast news (local and national) for many years with the big 20 lb cameras. I recently purchased my first DSLR, the T4i. I love it so far but have much to learn. The STM 18 - 135 lens sold me big time as I love that lens as a b-roll camera, handheld and moving around. The auto focus is slick. The 50 mm 1.8 is a sweet lens for primary interviews with great bokeh. I plan to purchase your video series. Thanks! Mark from Markymarkmedia
Hey Dave,
You've absolutely packed everything you could into this video about both these cameras, which makes your review probably one of the best. Even better than Kai's review over at DigitalRev. I love the music and the quality of your test videos inside. Did you do the editing for this video? What software did you use?
Thanks
-Tyrone.
thank you for useful info
Dave, your reviews are just great than any one on TH-cam.
We are waiting for your 70D review, coz its a new crop sensor with digic 5+, and I hope you can make good comparison between the image quality between the old crop sensor.
:)
Just bought this camera and it's amazing 😍 people just don't understand that auto focus on video isn't really needed because otherwise focus puller job role wouldn't exist... everything is done manually when you do a film degree like myself 🖒💯
awesome review... Was really bugged with the choice of 60D vs 650D. Thanks Dave for clearing some of the stuff up, esp on the sensor. I use a 450D so this will be a definite upgrade. Thanks again and a great job!
wow ive got to say mate, AMAZING comparison. This is lterally the best comparisons between cameras ive seena nd ive been searching heaps over the last few days.
I really wish there was focus peaking on the 650D but apart from that its great
Happy New Year! Your vids will help step things up this year. Great Job Dave!
God, that's what i call a professional review and comparaison. Amazing man, thank you!
Dave, your simple, casual, natural and subtle presentation style ROCKS!
Dude, you just make it seem so comfortable. Good show buddy.
I've tried to make my life rock with an iphone 5 and just got schooled BIG TIME about how that is a bad idea. I'm getting ready to start video blogging. Got the light set-ups, backdrops, teleprompter and ready to get the camera. Which would you suggest? is auto-video focus a factor in what i want to do? T4i or 60D.......?
Very informative and practical for the common user. Just focuses on the realistic factors required for choosing camera which is more value than the nitty gritties of pixel level differences usually talked about much in other reviews that never impact the human eye.
Wow, thanks for that great video! Most videos especially when they're almost 20 minutes long, I can never watch all the way through. But EASILY I watched through the whole thing and it was very enjoyable, and I loved how you got right down with the facts after a minute or so. Thanks for putting them together!
Thanks Dave
great comparative.
Can't wait for your T4i getting started guide !
Really well made review. I'm looking to purchase a new camera and the T4i really caught my attention, especially for the touch screen focus for video recording and affordability. It was good to be guided through the comparisons and also what the future might hold. I really wish that Canon hadn't removed the quick focus option on the T4i, super handy.
Thanks for the for the review.
Extremely helpful! I just bought the Canon 60D and was wondering if maybe I should've bought the T4i...I do really like the touch screen, but now that I've made my purchase, I think I'll be plenty happy with the 60D. Now I have to save up for some quality lenses! Looking forward to watching more of your videos too! Thank you so very much!
Well done Dave. A used T2i with the EF-S 18-135 is a great first-time DSLR setup. You can currently find this combo in good to excellent condition for around $600 US for both. High quality stills and HD video for a small price. Just take the time to learn how to operate it!
Man, this is by far the greatest camera comparison I've seen on the net. Straight to the point no BS! Can you help me decide please? I'm torn between 60D and D7000. I'm really scared of the back focusing and hot pixels issue of D7000 while 60D's still very expensive here in Manila and I guess belittled by the other one in almost every aspect but video. This is going to be my fist dslr coming from a sony cybershot and canon's sx50 hs.
Thanks Dave for the sharing. I had my own 60D, and researching to get T4i for office usage. Your video helped much. Thanks again for the comparison :)
Excellent tutorial comparing two great cameras. I have been looking at DSLR cameras for a while and this video was very useful in distinguishing the key features between the two cameras.
This is really fantastic and useful for me as I'm currently weighing up my options thanks so much for everything mate keep up the fantastic work you are making us all better photographers
I just spent 3 wks in Asia shooting everyday with the T3i. Loved that it was lightweight compare to the full frame Canon. I am giving the T3i to my kid for Christmas and updated to the T4i. Love it a lot, especially the new lens. I think the T4i is worth the upgrade, especially from T2i. (gave it away also) At this time of the year you can get it on sale for $799 with the new kit. Great price for that camera.
Here in Denmark the T4i is called the Canon EOS 650D. It marks the full cirkel in terms of model number from the very first Canon EOS from Canon, the Canon EOS 650 from 1987. I used the analog EOS 650 a lot back then, and it still works.
Amazing reviews, you're always spot on.You always know what you are taking about.Much better than some reviews that i care not to mention.
Same dilemma!!!! The 60d and 650d are brilliant cameras in their own ways. I'm leaning more towards the 60d. The only thing holding me back is the possibility of an upcoming replacement.
Very nice job Dave....You are raising video review bar.
Great review dave. Your reviews are always really good.
Depends on your budget, I brought my 1st DSLR a while ago and I went for the 60D. I didn't even consider the 1100d or and of the real entry level DSLR's. I did also look at the the 600D/650D too. Some would say that between the two in this video, If you want to get into video, choose the 650D. Where as if you want to get into stills choose the 60D, but you still have the video feature if you want.
Your reviews are constantly outstanding! Thank you! Really appreciate your efforts to do them!
Dave, I know nothing about cameras... in fact I don't even own one. But I am interested in video quality and production and I have to say, your presentation was so good that I watched the whole video - all 19 minutes, which was a surprise to me! So, thanks, I learned loads. Excellent on every level! Cheers, Mark
