I am constantly updating and supplementing this article. The article was last edited on 12.09.2019/90/XNUMX (added by XNUMXD). Ask your questions in the comments (my site 'Radozhiva' does not require absolutely any registration, and you can leave no e-mail or name).
Every day in the comments on my blog 'Radozhiva' the same question is heard - 'which Canon SLR camera to buy?'. In this article I will share my thoughts on this. Please note that the article is very full of subjective factors, since there are a lot of little things to consider when choosing a camera. I work as a professional photographer, and also do reviews of photographic equipment, shoot on almost all Canon and Nikon SLR cameras, you can say I ate a dog with these cameras and lenses.
Canon EOS SLR Camera Selection
All Canon digital SLR cameras can be divided into 3 classes:
- Amateur - These cameras are aimed at people who just need to get a high-quality photo without understanding the intricacies and settings of the camera. Most often, amateur cameras are best suited for people who do not take pictures professionally, but simply want a good camera for home, leisure, travel, family, nature, etc., so that the camera is light, easy to operate and inexpensive. Actually, Canon has the largest range of cameras in this segment.
- Advanced amateur - have advanced functionality with a large number of specific settings that you can deal with for a long time. These cameras are suitable for advanced amateurs who already know the settings, or want to get good potential for mastering skills in photography. Also, these cameras are noticeably more expensive and heavier. A distinctive feature of advanced amateur cameras is the presence of an additional monochrome display on the top panel of the camera, which helps to quickly access a number of settings.
- Professional - these cameras are designed for people who take professional photographs, know a lot about photography and are not afraid of manual settings. Typically, these cameras have a much better body and functionality. A distinctive feature of such cameras is the lack of a built-in flash (for the pros it is not particularly important). Usually these are full-format cameras or cameras with crop factor Kf = 1.3. Also, cameras of the highest price range have a combo case with a special additional handle that helps to keep the camera in portrait (vertical) orientation. I do not specifically touch upon this class of cameras in this article, because there is a million and one nuances in choosing professional equipment, and professionals themselves often know which camera they need.
For beginners and amateurs, I recommend Canon amateur cameras, which are represented in 2017 by 17 models.
The camera is a complex technical device, and the equipment does not stand still. In the tablet I indicated your rating of cameras based on the date the camera was released and its technical characteristics. I think that now the best amateur camera is the Canon 800D, this can be seen from the table below.
When choosing a camera I do not recommend paying much attention to the number of megapixels, in most cases, a huge number of megapixels is not in demand and even unnecessarily, in more detail in sections Battle of Megapixels, Gigapixels и Pixels and Subpixels.
Canon 800D is primarily interesting for its swivel touch screen, fast continuous shooting and excellent video quality.

| 22 | 300D | 2003 summer | 6,3 | 2,5 | 7 (1 k) | No | 1.8 inches, 118 pixels + monochrome |
In the plate in the column about focusing points, the letter 'k' means the number of cross-shaped focusing points. Such points help better cope with focusing in difficult conditions. For details on how focus points work on Canon cameras, see 'Canon EOS Camera Focus Sensors'. Cameras for which 'Tracking Focus' is not specified will automatically focus when shooting video unless the '*' button is pressed or the shutter button halfway pressed.
About the video: I want to convey to buyers that auto focus on all Canon cameras (except for cameras that support focusing Dual Pixel AF) when shooting a video, it works very poorly. This is due to the fact that the mechanism of a digital SLR camera is poorly adapted for focusing with a raised mirror, which requires a video mode. Typically, focusing when recording video occurs in contrast, rather than using the phase sensors of the camera. Canon says cameras 750D.760D 700D, 650D, 100D they use a hybrid focusing system to achieve fast and accurate focusing when shooting video, but in reality the automatic focusing with these cameras is still quite slow.
The same goes for Nikon SLR cameras and Pentax. If autofocus is very critical when shooting video, then I advise you to look towards Canon cameras with focus Dual Pixel AF, which provides high speed and focus accuracy when shooting video.
Various Canon camera names: 'D', 'Kiss Digital', 'Digital Rebel'
Canon in different countries calls its amateur cameras differently: in Japan they are known by the name 'Kiss Digital'and in the USA under the name'Digital Rebel'. Below is a table of correspondences of names. In Europe and other countries, cameras have a familiar name with the letter 'D'after the model number.
| EOS 'D' | Digital Rebel | Kiss Digital |

| 4000D (3000D for Asian markets) | T100 | — |
Canon EOS 77D for Asian markets may have a name '9000D '.
If you are limited in funds, then a good option for an amateur Canon camera is the simple and affordable Canon 1300D, which, together with a standard (whale) lens, costs about 400 USD.
As for the advanced amateur camera, in my opinion, full-length Canon 6D и Canon 6D MarkII are a very interesting option. If there is no desire to get in touch with the full frame, then Canon is an excellent advanced amateur camera. Canon 7D MarkII.
| Rating | Model | Year | MP | Frame per second | Focus points | Video | Dislpey |
| 1 | Canon 7D MarkII | 2014 | 20,2 | 10 | 65 (65 k, Dual Pixel AF) | Full HD 60fps, stereo sound, tracking focus | 3-inch, 1 pixels |

| 14 | D30 | 2000 spring | 3,1 | 3 | 3 (1k) | No | 1.8 inches, 114 pixels |
I did not include the Canon 20Da and 60Da cameras in the table because of their specific features, which are of little interest to the ordinary amateur photographer. If you have limited means, then a good option for an advanced amateur camera Canon is Canon 70D.
Usually cameras of advanced amateur and professional classes are sold separately from the lens, such a kit is called a 'body', and when a camera is sold with a lens, it is called a 'kit' (this is how cameras from the amateur segment are most often sold), and the lens from the shipment is called a 'whale lens' (sometimes abbreviated and simply called "whale", which creates confusion - both a kit and a lens from such a kit are called the same word).
Attention: you cannot take pictures with one “body” camera, you should always take pictures with a lens :)
Important: usually, if you buy a camera with a whale lens (the so-called whale kit), then such a kit will cost less than buying a camera and the same lens separately.
There are lenses really different, for different purposes and for different tasks. Usually comes with a camera universal standard lensthat can be used for basic tasks. With a standard lens, you can shoot landscapes, close-ups, portraits - almost anything. Most often, the kit contains the cheapest lens of class 18-55 / 3.5-5.6 - Canon Zoom Lens EF-S 18-55mm 1: 3.5-5.6 IS or Canon Zoom Lens EF-S 18-55mm 1: 3.5-5.6 ISII... Also, you can find options with better quality options - Canon Zoom Lens EF-S 18-55mm 1: 3.5-5.6 IS STM or Canon Zoom Lens EF-S 18-135mm 1: 3.5-5.6 IS STM.
The choice of other lenses requires a separate large article, but in addition to the standard (universal whale) lens, I recommend getting a fast, discrete fix the lens. Such a lens does not know how to zoom, but has a higher aperture than "whale". This will allow you to easily shoot in low light conditions, control the depth of field (create blurred background in photos), create a 'bokeh effect', get brighter and more vivid colors in photos.

My experience
I recommend spending less time choosing a camera - more time will be spent on the photo itself. All cameras are presented in tables (except Canon 6D / 6D MarkII) have the same physical size of the sensor, and therefore at low ISO values, you can get good photos with the same probability. The camera is not always plays a decisive role When creating great photos, the skills of the photographer, lens and light sources are almost always more important. For example, below are my shots on the very first digital SLR camera from Canon, produced in 2000, with a simple lens Canon EF 50mm F / 1.8 STM:
Examples of shots on Canon EOS D30 и Canon EF Lens 50mm 1: 1.8 STM you can see here to register:. increase.
Examples of shots on Canon EOS D30 и Canon EF Lens 50mm 1: 1.8 STM you can see here to register:. increase.
My very useful advice - if there is no money for a new camera, ask your friends for help in buying a used one. camera. Personally, I would opt for the cheapest amateur cameras Canon 1100D, Canon 500D or advanced Canon 60D. If the video recording function in the camera is not critical, then you can stay on amateur Canon models 450D и 1000Das well as advanced models 40D or 50D.
Mirrorless cameras
Canon also launches a range of mirrorless cameras with interchangeable lenses, as cropped (bayonet mount EF-M) and full-frame (R mount) EF-M and R mounts are completely different and lenses cannot be used between them.

Mirror or mirrorless?
The exact and correct answer does not yet exist. In each case, the answer may be different.
Full frame or crop?
In each case, the answer may be different. In the general case, full-frame cameras are considered better.

- a great option for an amateur cropped DSLR camera Canon EOS 850D
- a great option for the advanced amateur cropped DSLR camera Canon EOS 90D
- a great option for the advanced amateur full-frame Canon EOS 6D Mark II DSLR camera
All prices for Canon cameras (body or Kit) you can see here. Or maybe someone will like Nikon - you can find recommendations on choosing a Nikon camera here.
I don’t understand anything and I was lost in the choice!
Just tell me the budget that you are willing to spend on the camera and the purpose of buying the camera (what you will shoot for and in what) in the comments and they will tell you the best option. Anyway, ask any of your questions in the comments under this article (the site does NOT require absolutely no registration). You can consult me directly on these contacts.

Good afternoon, Arkady! My passion for photography began in the year 2009, when they presented me with the Canon 1000D, which served me faithfully on many trips! However, in recent years, a photograph abandoned. And now, I was again interested in this topic. Now I'm at a crossroads, choose some new, more advanced camera, or experiment with lenses (leaning toward the second option)? Mostly I use to shoot landscapes, but I'm also interested in portraiture (somehow it didn’t work very well with a standard lens). I would be grateful if the date of advice.
PS I would like to stay true to Canon, because the control is already familiar, but I get used to the new technology for a long time)
Yes, take yourself a pair of good lenses and even now with 1000d you can squeeze an excellent result.
Thank you!
55-250 IS STM is a good, lightweight budget TV set, I take it with me on all my trips. 10-18 IS STM is a wonderful lightweight budget shirik. Together with a 67 mm polaric (just not the cheapest, it's better not to save money here) - an excellent lens for landscapes and architecture. 50 1.8 STM is a great budget portrait lens. 24 2.8STM - tiny high-aperture staff. Look for all this on OLX, keep within 18 thousand (maybe cheaper, if you're lucky) - the quality of the images will increase dramatically. Take in approximately this order. When you realize that there is not enough camera, you can take a better camera. I now have a 7D mark II, and I still use these lenses on it with great pleasure.
Arkady, in a nearby topic I asked a question about a double kit Canon 2000d 18-55 IS ii / 50mm 1.8 stm.
Price tag: $ 540. In the arena, Nikon d3400 18-55 VR and Canon 2000d double kit. I can pull raw. Nikon has a lot more parrots on dxomark. How much does Canon lose in real shots from your experience? Which device is more reliable in terms of reliability?
Regards, Peter.
In real conditions, everything will depend entirely on experience and skills. I would prefer the d3300 or d3400, since the 2000d and 4000d were released by the poorest and cut-down models in the entire line.
Arkady, please tell me how such a camera in your opinion is worth the money: Canon EOS 1300D SLR Camera 18-55mm DC + 50mm STM black price 30000
If everything is less or less new, then such a price is quite acceptable.
This is for a new camera price
Sorry, Arkady, I’ll explain. The price for a new kit, we choose to photograph our son’s wife, would you like to know your opinion about these two lenses?
Yes, such a set is quite suitable. And if you figure it out a bit, everything will be fine.
Arkady, tell me please, I decided to switch from canon s5 is to a reflex camera. There are a lot of used equipment offers on the market. In fact, I don't really need the video. the mobile phone records in FullHD. So, there are from the offers Canon 50d 22000 the shutter mileage of the body and Canon 650d, the prices are about the same. I'm trying to choose from these two, I've read more than a dozen forums and reviews. What is the best device to choose in your opinion? I know that optics are also important, but if you compare the cameras themselves, what do you recommend? I am going to shoot everything - landscapes, houses, objects, sunsets ... Therefore, I will select the optics later, I want to first decide on the carcass. Thanks in advance.
I'm over 50d - a class above.
I am also over 50d, but some people think that since it is older, it is worse than the new (albeit used) 650d. The 50d was originally a semi-pro, everything says about it: the design, and the body, and the filling. I would just like to know the opinion of experts - how much the picture quality has changed over 8 years. Yes, in 650d and newer percent, but it is needed for video and for all chips with photo editing, etc. In 50d digic 4, but for a photo it is quite enough. I used canon s5 is, so the digic 3 was enough for me, it's a pity only manual focusing through the buttons, and not through the lens - it's inconvenient, annoying, + the screen is small.
The quality has not changed much. Matrix at 650 from 7d. And the picture from her is lousy. I personally like 50d more. Videographers, however, love the 7d matrix.
I understand that it is not only the processor that matters, but also the matrix, the lens, the shooting conditions, the straightness of the hands ... The question should even be posed in this way - how relevant is it to photograph on the Canon 50d in 2018? Although how I read - it is important not what, but how! Apparently he himself answered his own question)))
I would like to buy a camera and would like to ask you for advice. This will be my first camera. I want to buy a camera for different purposes, I want to take a photo of my parents, friends, people close to me. Different landscape. Sometimes I really want to make beautiful shots that stand before my eyes, and from the phone it turns out as I wish, so I really want to get a high-quality photo camera. I will wait for your advice
Probably, you should start with “initial-amateur” - for canon (if you write here) it is 1000d, 1100, 1200, 2000, 4000, 100d, 200. See which one you like.
By the way, you read here the article "Which consumer Canon DSLR camera to choose?"
Canon 5D Mk4 + 24-70 / 2.8 lens.
High-quality excellent camera and the same lens.
If there is no money, then take a look at the Canon 760D, 77D, 80D with a whale lens.
Good afternoon!
I'm going to buy the first SLR camera in my life, I choose between Canon 200d and 700d. Tell me, in your opinion, which choice to stop? Thanks a lot in advance. I doubt very much and do not understand cameras at all
I recommend 200d in this case. Reasons - excellent autofocus when shooting video, newer model.
Thanks a lot for your answer! And if you include 750d in this row?
See the rating plate, I created it specifically for such issues.
Arkady, please correct the table:
77D was launched in 2017, 80D in 2016.
Fixed
Good day!
I studied your rating plate cameras, but still could not determine until the end. We buy our daughter a camera, a budget of 200d or 750d. I read the previous comments on this subject are similar, but still I want to ask: is it worth buying a 200d as the model is newer or still 750d?
Both cameras are good, if used as a point-and-shoot camera - then d200 (focusing on the main screen is better there), if as a DSLR through an optical viewfinder (through a peephole) - then d750, where the focusing system through an optical viewfinder is better. These are critical parameters. And by and large for a beginner, there is not much difference, it is better to knit something cheaper, but with a more versatile lens, such as 18-135, not 18-55.
Thank you for your reply!
Good day! I am picking up my own camera with a single frame. Infection in my Nikon 5100 with a 50 mm lens. I am picking up with cameras NIKON D610 and a canon 6d m1. krascha.Dyakuyu for vidpovid!
and the Canon 6D and Nikon D610 are both good. Here are more personal preferences. Personally, I would stop at the d610 because of more convenient focus control, and in general, focusing on the d610 is better.
I can go ahead and talk about it. For better sound and for menus. I want to use one for commercial zoom and fast zoom and fx, so I can do it kind of stuff)).
85/1.8G, 85/1.8D, 80-200/2.8, 70-200/2.8
Crazy !!!!
Hello, I want to give my sister her first "professional" device in mind of the canon d100 kit \ d1200kit \ d1300kit \ d4000 kit. But I don’t understand which one is better, please share your advice)
Of these, 100d is preferable
Arkady, good afternoon. Can you please tell me which element is installed in the viewfinder of the Canon EOS 400D camera - pentaprism or pentamirror? I reviewed many sites and the result is twofold, there is no specific answer. Help me please.
Pantazerkalo, significantly worse for sight than pentaprism.
Thank you, because on some pentaprism sites, on others - a penta mirror, it's hard to make out the truth. But please tell me more, I read a lot of information about how to program the M42 adapters with a chip for Soviet obekiv. So, on Helios 44m lenses, when programming the chip, is it necessary to program the focus adjustment after setting the focal length?
not necessary :)
Thank you, Arkady.
What about canon 5d?
Hello! An important problem has arisen - you need to choose a Canon with a lens for photos (portraits, posters, etc.) as well as for shooting video materials (performances, scenes) Work in terms of the operator of advertising and promotion of stage art (advertising)))) in reg. Philharmonic.
There is still a Canon 650D, but alas, not enough. There are a couple of good glasses: a pancake and 18-135, as well as some excellent Soviet glasses with a Lushnikov adapter. A professional camera is almost universal, because you need both photos and videos. The budget is limited, but I rely on your experience and ask you to help in choosing a camera And what lenses do you recommend?
This is a serious question, I ask you to help make a decision.
Regards, Mikhail.
Real professional cameras are one of a kind, like the Canon 1DX Mark II. But a good solution can be from the Canon 7D Mark II crop from a full frame Canon 5D Mark III, 5D Mark IV, 6D, 6D Mark II. For what there is enough money - then take it.
Good day! I am very grateful to you for your advice, give Gd success! And which of the glasses of about the middle class would you recommend? We need photos for posters and advertisements, videos as well as small clips for broadcasting.
Thanks! With respect and wishes for all the best, Michael.
We need a good station wagon, something like 24-70 / 2,8, in extreme cases, 24-105 / 4
What is better to take for a lover of Canon EOS 200D Kit 18-55mm IS STM or Nikon D3400 Kit 18-55mm VR AF-P + 70-300mm VR
The latter option, due to the presence of two lenses, will generally be more interesting.
Thanks. And if without the last lens. which is better to take for an amateur.
By and large, there will not be much difference for an amateur. I would prefer the Canon 200D because of the Dual Pixel AF for more convenient autofocus when shooting movies.
Thank you very much.
Sincerely grateful, accepted.
Regards, Michael. ))))
Good afternoon!
Neither can I choose between Canon eos 800D and Canon eos 80D. I really hope for your help.
I understand that you need to choose a camera based on your personal tasks and priorities. Therefore, I will write briefly what I would like from the camera. I want it to allow you to take high-quality (and suitable for photo stocks) pictures of nature, architecture, individual objects and people. It is very important for me that the matrix should be as noisy as possible and give a good result, including in not very good lighting. Dynamic range and color depth are also very important. I would also like to shoot fast-moving objects (sports and concert shooting).
On the Internet, they write that, compared to the 800D, the 80D has a stronger case with dust and moisture protection, more convenient and advanced settings management, and the second screen with the main settings is a little faster (7 frames per second versus 6 for the 800D) and plus a shutter speed of min it has 1/8000, which is significantly shorter than 1/4000 for the 800D. For the rest, they write that these two cameras are identical in image quality. And for me, just the most important thing is the quality of the pictures. It’s not important for me to have a fortified case, an output for headphones, an additional screen and the like, and I would not want to take a more expensive model because of these improvements, which are not very important to me. But in one of the reviews I heard that the matrices of these cameras are still slightly different and the 80D has a slightly larger and better matrix and a better quality mirror and a Bayer filter are better. Tell me is this so? And will the quality of the shots be affected by the fact that these cameras have different processors? And is there really a fundamental difference in the quality of the pictures between these two cameras for which it is worth paying so much or are they identical in this sense and the 80D is more expensive due to other differences? If these cameras are identical in photo quality, then I think I'm inclined to 800D so as not to overpay for improvements that are not important for my tasks. What do you advise?
Take the 80D or look at the 6D if you can successfully buy it at a discount or used.
If you need to shoot for photo stocks, then a good lens plays a greater role, although the matrix is also very important.
You want to eat a fish and climb the tree - and so that the matrix does not make noise and the DD is wide (Canon has never been particularly good with this, although the extreme models have norms) and you want to shoot sports and concert shooting. For such requests, 5D Mk4, 1Dx Mk2 will go well, but only you have no money for them, I guess. Well, to the heap another 24-70 / 2.8L and 70-200 / 2.8L for the cameras I mentioned above, and then there will be a complete set, for which you will not be ashamed, but which in turn will demand the necessary knowledge and skills from you.
As a result - either 80D or 6D and 24-70 / 2.8L to any of these cameras.
Everything is very simple. 80d is higher than the level, and it should be taken in this case.
Hello, I choose my first SLR camera. The budget is at 600d or 650d. Are there any new models for around this price? I want to learn how to take good pictures, and to continue to grow in this direction. Which camera do you recommend?
Of the new ones - only from the Nikon / Pentax / Sony legion. If from used, then you can look at 50d / 60d.
Hello, please advise canon 200d 800D 77d which is better for PHOTO? I want to buy a body and lenses separately later. Thanks for the article is very easy to read.
The one that is above class, the one that is better) 800D-77D
Are the photos good? or if the class is higher then 100% and the photo is better? For the lenses, I realized what they decide, but right now you need to decide on the carcass
Good photos ultimately depend on the class of the photographer.
The photos are the same. Higher class - better ergonomics and functionality, that's all. Previous comment to the point, but it will come later)
I understand that, but I asked for 3 models and that’s it. I just would like to hear the opinion of professionals :) and the 600d is no longer relevant?
Relevant. And the 400D is quite relevant) True, the 18 MP matrix is not for everyone, it’s so unfortunate for me. On the other 800-77D, I will not comment
What about the canon 200d?
A perfectly usable camera, a modern 24MP sensor, DUAL PIXEL AF for good focusing during movie shooting.
Just going to buy a camera for my wife
And the top one does not make sense .. because she wants very much, but will she or will she be able? Therefore, I am considering options up to $ 1000. 200d will do? Interested in photo video is not important, please advise!
It’s hard with wives. It is better to go with her to the big market, what she likes, then buy. For without understanding it’s very difficult to climb into the world of DSLRs.
But in the general case, the d200 is a good option, most likely you will take in a whale kit 18-55
Thank you very much, but in the market they were all beautiful in appearance, but I wanted to hear from a professional.
Just for starters then 200d and if you can take pictures and have a desire to do it then I’ll change it to a more expensive and professional camera. Thank you again!
Good day! What is better for a beginner with little experience:
Nikon d3300 or Canon 200d?
Thank you!
Which is more like it. It will be better to lie in the hand. And the lens immediately take something like 18-135.
Hello!
.
I don’t even understand what exactly is needed for my tasks.
I need a camera for blogging and business accounts on Instagram, a 8+ camera is great, but I want better content with video and cool photos.
.
I ask you for advice, which is better to choose
Advise canon eos M50, but on a budget a little expensive
Is there something similar with a lower budget?
