Last class ’s Canon T4iis a really excellent camera . But for all its whiz - bang features like a capacitive touchscreen and continuous autofocus while photograph video , it just did n’t feel special . A DSLR for beginners just does n’t make as much sense when there are smaller mirrorless cameras that can achieve similar final result . So Canon shrunk the T4i down . Here ’s the mini version , canyon EOS Rebel SL1 .

With the exception of its size the non - tilting capacitive touchscreen , the SL1 is identical to the T4i . Same 18 - megapixel APS - C range sensor , same DIGIC 5 image central processor , same 1080p TV recording with uninterrupted autofocus .
The SL1 ’s body weighs just 14.1 ounces compare to the T4i ’s 18.3 ounce soundbox . When you ’re holding this thing , you’re able to believe how unclouded it is . And it ’s perceptibly small too , measuring 4.6 x 3.6 x 2.7 inches compared to the T4i ’s 5.2 x 3.9 x 3.1 inches . Here ’s what that size of it looks like compared to the T4i andmirrorless Canon EOS M release last twelvemonth . All three of these cameras have the same image sensing element and prototype processor .

The Canon SL1 will be available next month for $ 650 for the body alone or in a outfit with a brand newfangled 18 - 55 mm STM lens . ( It ’s got the same good - for - video stepping motor technology as the 18 - 135 STM lens introduced with the T4i last twelvemonth . ) That ’s cheaper than a T4i , but still not quite as cheap as the tiny $ 600 ( lens - included)SLT-58 from Sony . It ’ll be useable at the end of April .
