What reviewers say
Both reviews find useful image quality and straightforward controls, but criticise the poor rear screen and slow live-view autofocus. Photography Blog finds its affordability persuasive for first-time DSLR buyers despite the compromises. Amateur Photographer is less convinced, recommending older or better-equipped Canon bodies for stronger value and room to develop.
