Canon EOS T5 review: Entry-level DSLR offers basics and value, but not much more

<p>
The Canon EOS Rebel T5 (http://www.usa.canon.com/cusa/consumer/products/cameras/slr_cameras/eos_rebel_t5_18_55_is_ii_kit) is an appealing entry-level SLR option that offers a good, inexpensive entry point for those graduating from a point-and-shoot. At $550, the T5 strikes a good value-versus-power proposition: It has far more versatility and control than a high-end point-and-shoot, yet it’s also compact enough and low-cost enough to not be an albatross around your neck. But while image quality is good, you’ll be giving up some features to get that price.</p><h2>Design</h2>

The T5, which came out earlier this year, is 100 grams lighter than its T5i sibling (http://www.macworld.com/article/2824448/canon-eos-t5i-great-entry-level-dslr-particularly-for-video.html). Physically, it’s slightly more compact, too. The hand grip is a little narrower, for example—a small detail, but it did have an impact on how comfy I found the camera in-hand. The T5 and T5i also share some other characteristics: Both have an 18-megapixel resolution and sensor size.</p><p class="jumpTag"><a href="/article/2824164/canon-eos-t5-review-entry-level-dslr-offers-basics-and-value-but-not-much-more.html#jump">To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here[/url]</p></section></article>
