Canon EOS 650D

Does the addition of a touchscreen elevate the Canon 650D to DSLR greatness?

Touch-screen adds to user experience, Improved autofocus performance, Good image quality

Touch-screen icons a little small, Slow processing of digital filter effects

Canon 650D review

Canon's first touchscreen DSLR is put through its paces

Touchscreen ; Vari-angle screen ; Image quality and high ISO performance ; 5fps continuous shooting ; Easy interface

Only' 18MP ; No headphone socket ; Raw burst-depth ; No rating button ; New NR mode is JPEG only

The Canon EOS 650D - or Canon EOS Rebel T4i in the US - sits above the Canon EOS 600D/Rebel T3i in Canon's DSLR range, and has been designed for beginners and enthusiast photographers alike.

Canon EOS 650D

The Canon EOS 650D - otherwise known as the Rebel T4i or Kiss X6i to our worldwide readers - is the first DSLR to include a touchscreen LCD. The 650D's improved autofocus system (as per the 60D) is a big step forward and the HD movie mode makes best...

Responsive autofocus, touchscreen can be useful, JPEG burst mode can be sustained (picture dependent), LCD screen is detailed and vari-angle useful for framing, live view autofocus improvements benefit movie mode

Plasticky build quality, raw & JPEG continuous shooting is still poor (limited buffer), live view autofocus still lags behind SLT and compact system cameras, pre-flash in low light just isn’t subtle, higher ISO images have more noise than the previous...

The 650D's improved autofocus system (as per the 60D) is a big step forward and the HD movie mode makes best use of the new touchscreen technology.

Canon EOS 650D review

Superseded twice but the old 650D is a still a solid performer at around £300 secondhand

At launch the Canon was an excellent choice for people who want to get creative with both still and moving images. It's looking a little old in the tooth now and sensor technology has certainly improved but with secondhand models selling for around...

Canon EOS 650D review

Despite others sending in wave after wave of compact system camera combatants , Canon stubbornly continues to throw newer, stronger DSLRs into the fray. And the 650D looks like the kind of opponent that will chew you up, spit you out and fashion your...

18MP hybrid CMOS sensor, Continuous auto-focus in video mode, Beautifully crisp video footage, Controls to suit all

Gimmicky feel to the touch screen

Canon EOS 650D review

Canon sticks to a successful formula by using the same 18-million-pixel sensor and metering system as the EOS 7D and 60D, so the 650D performs as expected, which is good news for photographers. The addition of a touchscreen is a bonus and, alongside...

Expert Review

Canon and Nikon make excellent cameras and with Nikon's release of the D5200 the obvious question is; how does it stack up against the Canon competition? Here we compare the D5200 against its main Canon competition, the 650D.
