Canon Cameras

One of the old-line global leaders in the photo industry, Canon cameras cover the range from entry-level point & shoot models to high-end professional SLRs at the very top of the market.

Canon cameras are divided into two broad product lines, Canon EOS for their SLR models, and Canon PowerShot for their point & shoot designs. The links below take you to dedicated pages for each category, with more information on the models that make up each Canon camera product line.

Recently, Canon has answered the challenge of mirrorless cameras with the Canon SL1, a camera that packs much of the functionality from the Canon T5i into a tiny package.

Canon EOS 5D Mark III

22.3 megapixel, Pro SLR, Non-Zoom

The Canon 5D Mark III is a true "superstar" camera, with impressive capabilities for both still and video shooting. It suits the needs of well-heeled amateurs and working pros equally well, and while its resolution is only very slightly higher than that of the 5D Mark II, the Canon 5D Mark III offers so many improvements over its predecessor that it'll be an easy upgrade decision for many 5D Mark II owners.

Canon EOS 6D

20.2 megapixel, Pro SLR, 4.38x Zoom

With the 20.2-megapixel EOS 6D, Canon has created a smaller, lighter and less expensive full-frame digital SLR for prosumer photographers. In many ways, the well-designed 6D is a mini 5D Mark III for the rest of us. While it doesn't feature as robust a camera build as that step-up model, and its autofocus system is decidedly basic, the Canon 6D is otherwise a fantastic, responsive DSLR that offers the glories of full-frame in a trim but comfy camera body. Plus, you get full-featured, built-in Wi-Fi and GPS to boot.

image of the Canon EOS 7D digital camera

Canon EOS 7D

18.0 megapixel, Pro SLR, 3.80x Zoom

In many ways the Canon EOS 7D stands alone. It's a DSLR that can capture 18MP images at 8fps and 14-bit depth, with a quite usable ISO range from 100 to 12,800. It offers Live View, full manual exposure control while recording movies, Full HD movie recording, a new 19-point, all-cross-type autofocus system, a near-100% optical viewfinder, and built-in support for controlling up to three groups of Speedlite strobes. You can choose from one or two of those items with other cameras from Canon and other manufacturers, but if you want it all in one body, the Canon 7D is your only choice.

With the Canon EOS 7D now tasked to meet the intermediate to professional photographer's needs, Canon has retooled the EOS 60D to better serve as a step-up model for Rebel owners who want a little more, rather than as the lower-priced competition to the 7D.

Canon EOS 70D

20.2 megapixel, SLR, 7.50x Zoom

The long-awaited Canon 70D comes packed with a groundbreaking new technology -- Canon's Dual Pixel CMOS AF system -- that provides on-chip phase detection autofocus at every single pixel. That means a DSLR can finally record video with full-time continuous AF that's truly camcorder-like, with smooth racking and exceptional subject tracking. And it improves Live View AF to the point where using the LCD monitor feels almost as fast as traditional viewfinder shooting. The 70D also gets an upgrade to 20.2 megapixels of resolution, as well as compelling Wi-Fi features that include remote image capture with full exposure controls. The camera may not wow enthusiasts looking for significantly better still image quality, but the Canon 70D marks a serious step up for photographers wanting pro-level video performance and quality.

Canon EOS M

18.0 megapixel, Compact System Camera, 3.10x Zoom

The Canon EOS M, the manufacturer's long-awaited entry into the mirrorless camera market, is a much better camera now than it was when it was launched nearly a year ago. Thanks to a recent firmware update from Canon, the EOS M's sluggish autofocusing capabilities have been markedly improved, though it's still not as fast as many competing models. And since the AF flaw weakened early demand for the camera, it now readily sells in a kit for under US$400 -- which makes it a lot more attractive than its initial US$800 pricetag. At that cost, and boasting image quality and photographic skills similar to the Rebel T4i, the Canon EOS M is no longer a bad investment for Canon DSLR owners looking for a small spare body, nor for beginners wanting to step up from a point-and-shoot.

Canon EOS Rebel SL1 (EOS 100D)

18.0 megapixel, SLR, 3.06x Zoom

The Canon SL1 is the smallest and lightest DSLR that we've ever reviewed, delivering DSLR performance and image quality in a body that's almost as small as today's mirrorless camera models. Its features and image quality rival those of its bigger siblings, the Canon Rebel T4i and T5i. But it's not just a miniaturized version of those DSLRs; it's actually better in some ways, most notably its autofocus speed and video skills.

Canon EOS Rebel T3 (EOS 1100D)

12.2 megapixel, SLR, 3.00x Zoom

Marking a new entry point to the Rebel line, the Canon T3 offers good image quality, a friendly design, and excellent battery life. Although its burst-shooting capabilities don't match the best-in-class, and has a few omissions such as dust removal and spot metering, these are fairly easy to overlook given the entry-level pricetag. In all, a fairly easy recommendation for the first-time SLR buyer.

Canon EOS Rebel T3i (EOS 600D)

18.0 megapixel, SLR, 7.50x Zoom

Staking out the high end of the Rebel line, the Canon T3i shares the excellent image quality of its predecessor (the T2i), and offers the articulating LCD, remote flash control, and creative filters also found in the 60D. With Full HD video support, fast autofocus, and good quality optics, the Canon EOS Rebel T3i is easy to recommend.

The Canon T5i might not be significantly different to the T4i, but that's not necessarily a bad thing. It retains everything we loved about its predecessor, comes with a better lens, and yet costs even less.

The Canon PowerShot D20 is one of the better waterproof cameras we've tested, featuring a rugged, element-defying design. Its 12.1-megapixel CMOS sensor and 28-140mm zoom lens deliver good quality still and video images, but not good enough that you'll be mistaking the Canon D20 for an enthusiast-level digicam.

Canon PowerShot G15

Canon's PowerShot G-series has been a favorite compact tool for serious photographers for many years, and the Canon G15 raises the stakes with a new, fast f/1.8 lens, an upgraded 12-megapixel, 1/1.7-inch CMOS sensor, a swifter autofocus system and overall improved image quality. The only major negative we found was Canon's decision to remove the articulating LCD monitor (present in the G12), but even so that made the camera's design slimmer and more comfortable to use, if not ultimately pocketable.
