Canon
EOS 650D (body only)
18 megapixel DSLR
Coming into the EOS lineup above the 600D, the 650D has been significantly enhanced to suit hobbyists and photographers starting out. The biggest improvement over the 600D is the addition touch sensitivity to the screen, which allows you to navigate the camera's features by touch, and enables features like touch-to-focus. This makes the camera easier to use and immediately familiar to anyone who has ever used a smartphone, and also improves the camera's handling when shooting from odd angles. Video functionality has also been improved, thanks to the addition of on-sensor phase-detect autofocus sites. When paired with an STM focusing lens, this delivers fast, accurate, and most importantly silent autofocus when shooting video. Other features include an 18 Megapixel CMOS sensor, Digic 5 Image Processor, Full HD movie recording and an improved frame rate of 5fps.
