Excellent value. Stellar image quality. Fast performance. HD (720p30) video capture. Big, 3-inch high-res (VGA) screen. HDMI-out.
Cannot continuously focus during video recording (user must hold down a button to refocus if subjects change their distance from the camera). Autofocus mechanism is audible in video recordings. Full HD 1080 video capture looks sluggish due to its low fram...
The Canon EOS Rebel T1i helps redefine the D-SLR landscape by offering prosumer features, performance, and image quality for less than $1,000....
Wider ISO range, HD video recording, small and lightweight design; fast continuous shooting speed.
Slow autofocus in Live View mode; 1080p videos look sluggish at 20fps.
Light in terms weight but heavy on features, the Canon 500D is most definitely not your typical entry-level DSLR camera. The inclusion of HD video recording is a welcome addition that comes in handy when pictures alone aren’t enough to convey your e...
Nice and responsive to use , Superb LCD screen , Great photos , Kit lenses are mostly decent
Viewfinder is small , Video quality is not that impressive , Autofocus in movie mode is loud

Excellent low light performance (up to 3200 ISO), can shoot video at 720p, produces soft and natural-looking colour tones
ISO button in an uncomfortable position, Live View mode is not intuitive, LCD screen does not pop out, no external microphone jack
Canon’s EOS 500D is a nice step up from the 400D. It is worth considering this digital SLR if you want the ability to capture high quality video with a still camera. ...
The new Canon EOS Rebel T1i is a relatively small digital SLR camera with 15 megapixels, a nice and large 3 inch LCD, 3.4 FPS burst mode and it delivers good image quality. If you’re looking to step up from using compacts, the Canon EOS Rebel T1i ak...
Fast performance; very good photo quality; offers hi-def video capture
Annoying viewfinder; video capture is its only better-than-basic feature
A solid, slightly better-than-basic dSLR, the Canon EOS 500D delivers photo quality and performance that adequately compensate for most of its annoyances ...
