In a move that's as unprecedented as it is refreshing, it seems Canon has actually decided to listen to and do something about the recent customer complaints about the lack of a 24p mode in some of the companies most recent DSLRs and mirrorless cameras.
CP+ is underway, which means the gear announcements are about to start coming hard and fast... brace yourselves. First up is Canon, with a new entry-level DSLR that replaces the 2011 T3 as the stripped down Rebel for the budget conscious shooter who has their heart set on staying away from mirrorless cameras: The Canon Rebel T5.
We've said it before, but it bears mentioning again: smartphones might be bludgeoning the compact camera market, but that doesn't mean camera companies aren't putting up a fight. Fuji's new superzoom lineup is kind of a case in point, but a better example are the three new point-and-shoots just released by Canon.
Even as we say goodbye to the Jessops chain of retail stores in the UK, it seems that more of the major manufacturers are moving towards establishing a brick and mortar branch. Polaroid will soon be opening 'Fotobars' and now, following in Polaroid and Leica's footsteps, Canon is getting ready to open its own 'Canon Experience Stores.'
It's finally here. After many months of rumors and the now-typical day before announcement leak, Canon has officially announced the EOS M mirrorless ILC -- and fortunately, all evidence points to the little camera being worth the wait. So buckle up and let's dive into the specifics.
After weeks of speculation and a big picture and spec leak yesterday, the wait is finally over -- the Canon EOS Rebel T4i/650D has finally arrived. Since the T3i release last year wasn't anything to write home about, Canon have really tried to make the new rebel worth an upgrade, and they've done this mainly by introducing an upgraded AF system, capacitive touchscreen LCD and Movie Servo AF that works with the new STM lenses, which also debuted today.
