How would you compare this camera with the Canon Rebel T3? Which one would you purchase? Which one is newer? Thanks

They are both great cameras it really depends on what you want. We actually purchased this camera in addition to a Cannon Rebel T4. We cruise quite a bit and when going off ship to take the Rebel T4 have quite a big carring case to take the different lenses and with this Cannon powershot SX50 you have one camera dont even need to take a case can just carry it. Also if you are looking for a great zoom this is the best one we have found for the price you would be able to get a lens for the Rebel T3 that would have the same zoom but it would be very expensive. For example we took a picture of the moon with the SX50 and you can see the craters and took pictures of a plane in flight that all you could see with the eye was a white streak in the sky and after going full zoom you can almost read the writing on the airplane. So I would say both are great cameras just depends what you are looking for.

Spend the extra bucks on the t5i. There is a major picture quality and video quality from the t3i and the t5i. And the lcd display is delightful

Did any of you read this review? http://www.digitalreview.ca/content/Nikon-D5000-D90-Compared-to-Canon-Rebel-T1i-500D.shtmlD5000 seems to be an easy pick. I am now tossing my coin between D90 and D5000.

I recommend the Canon A720IS !!!!! My pet pictures are breathtaking (IMO) and I'll put a couple up to prove it! (If I can figure out how)

I hate the feature of Amazon where they farm out tech questions to customers, because we've written a review. I don't know the Rebel T3, but given that this unit does not use IR, but rather a direct input into the camera, its lack of IR is irrelevant. Look up which cameras it supports on the manufactures web site.

The T4i is worth it. The new processor, plus the touch screen and video recording time of up to 29:59 minutes are amazing. My advice is if you can afford it, make sure to buy it with the 18-135mm STM lens instead of the 18-55mm non STM. Matched with that lens this camera can effectively compete with some of the more expensive ones. I would get this instead of the T3i

Good question for one of the camera stores, my instinct is yes as I have 6 various canon lenses and all their Slr's not just digital are cross functional , I believe a t3 body is about the same as the original rebel, but double check if not returnable, the lens is xpensive but my favorite

I purchased a new, in the box Canon A570 IS through Amazon 3 months ago ($235.45) because my original (11-2007 purchase) was severely damaged in an accident. I purchased another A570 IS rather than going with "newer" technology, because I am totally aware of it capabilities and limitations, and it functionally meets ALL of my camera needs. If you love it and it meets your needs, I suggest you check Amazon for "new" availability.

This Camera is in class kind of the middle of the road for the top end of Canon, BUT! I have had really good quality pictures with this camera. The movies have be very good also. Keep in mind that a camera is just a camera with out the right lens or settings for each shot. But if you don't have a lot of money to spend on a camera then the Canon T4i should work for you well... Go to my site and view my photography work. This will give you and idea on what kind of photography you will be turning out with this camera... You be the judge. https://www.facebook.com/PhotoByJamesPhotograohy?ref=hl

If you are really serious abt photography go for the 70D. The T4i is now obsolete but pretty similar to the T5i. It is much more simpler and you would rather get very quickly shooting manual mode all the time. It is then when you would realize you need more control over camera and 70D is the best fit. That's my experience. But instead of focussing on the camera Ty to invest more in some good glass eventually.

DEFINITELY go with the T5i. I was thinking the same, but the extra features, newer & better tech, MANUAL video mode (light settings) and such were a great addition. This camera is great for the starting shooter or amateur. I went from little knowledge to taking masterpieces. Go for the T5i. You won't regret it.

Because, like the T3 it replaces in the lineup, Canon's Rebel T5 is thier "budget" entry-level model so cost savings took priority over performance. Previous budget models included the T3, XS and XT which were always a bit technologically behind their more expensive 'i' siblings.

The T5i makes great quality photos. I have shot over 3000 photos since purchasing mine about 2 months ago and am extremely satisfied. I have not used it for videos, however, so am not qualified on that aspect.

I don't think the T300 is in the same class as the G10 and LX3, in terms of features and image quality. I'm a Canon guy and I really wanted to get the G10. But it was a marginal improvement over the G9. And the low light performance is still lacking. I tend to shoot a lot of indoor and night time pics, so the LX3 was a better choice for me. But if you're more of an outdoor daylight shooter, the G10 blows the LX3 away. And I have to say that Canon has a better menu system and user interface. The Panasonic UI takes some getting used to. I would highly recommend browsing through Flickr to get an idea of the image quality that comes from each of the cameras. It should help you decide on the best camera for your needs. And Amazon uses automated scripts to adjust pricing. If a Marketplace reseller offers it for a lower/higher price, the Amazon price will drop/increase by X dollars. So if you're looking for the best price from Amazon, it helps to be a little obsessive and check every half hour or so. :-)

Did anybody ever let you know (or did you get the Fuji to find out) how quickly it will take a photo? I have a Canon and want to go with a smaller, less expensive, more durable model/make - but I need instant images.

I have never used the canon rebel, but we got a Nikon d3100 several months ago. I am a beginner, and I have still been able to use and take good pictures with the Nikon. We got a great deal for it on Amazon and are super happy with it.
