I love my 650D, it's taken thousands of photos. It actually does 7 fps. I've used it for wildlife and 4WD off road competitions, weddings and in snow. I also added a camera grip and have adjusted my settings for back button focusing. I've had it 11 yrs now and it's still going strong.

Hi Debbie, thanks for watching. The camera is really good and I'm not surprised you are still using it fully after 11 years, and did I get my research wrong 😕

@@MyPhotoJourney Just on the fps, yout research on everything else was spot on. The high fps was better than other cameras at the time of purchase and I needed that for photographing off road vehicles and wildlife. I was nervous purchasing it, being the first touch screen camera...what could go wrong, but nothing. It's a brilliant camera

I just saw a used one for $250 USD and wondering if it's a good buy. Trying out photography, a new hobby, so I need a camera that is budget friendly but takes good picture as well. Will this do? Thanks.

@chanthana7694 it sound's a good price, but I'd be trying it out first. Try it on full burst, is there any lag. Does the shutter button work correctly, or is it sticky. Do all the buttons and flash work. Is it clean or dirty. Only you can decide if it's worth it.

My parents bought this camera when I was 12 years old, it’s been sitting in the garage for almost 10 years. Today I am 24 and am learning how to take pictures. This video was perfect , thank you for the information. (I can’t believe it cost $160 now, in 2012 it cost my parents over $800) 🤣

This was the first camera i ever bought. That was 11 years ago, only month after its release. I was a student in high school in Germany and wanted to shoot my first short film with it. Worked out super well and it ignited my passion for video and photography. I still use it to this day (for photo, i replaced the video side with a Canon XA-40 (don't buy it, not worth it)) but will soon replace it with an R6 MK2. It is still a great camera for it's money and very capable, even in less than perfect lighting conditions.

Very informative Video indeed. I bought mine in 2012, and the last few weeks was looking to replace it with a modern compact Camera. Mainly because the 650d is a bit bulky, and my use case primarily is to take it along with me to capture family moments when traveling with 2 young kids. As we already have „kids stuff” carrying all the time, I wanted the camera to take as less space as possible while carrying a camera that can take much better photos than my iPhone. I am not looking for super professional looking photos; just sharp and good photos that I can print and frame it for home. None of the iPhone photos are sharp and good enough when printed, when compared to how they looking on the iPhone display.

Hi Jeff, Thanks for your comment. I must say having used the 650D over the past few weeks I have quite warmed to it, though I agree with you about the size and hence why I swapped my Pentax DSLR for a smaller lighter Olympus Mirrorless camera! Thanks again and good luck with your next camera!

I just want to say that I have shot many thousands of photos with my t4i. I also have shot numerous promotional videos for various projects with it. I always liked it because I could do pretty darn good videos with little work. I used a Zacuto viewfinder and a Rode VideoMic microphone with the t4i. I have several other alternatives such as camcorders and cinema cameras, but I used the t4i for those quick and short videos. My lens of choice was the Canon 15-85mm EFS. All of this makes for a light/small configuration, which produces great videos every time.

Thanks for a very informative video. I too have a 650 D and have taken some very good pics. I have moved on from clicking family pics to street photography, which i feel needs a much slimmer camera to "blend" with the crowd, hence using my iPhone 12 pro. Haven't used the 650 till now though, mite as well give it a try with a 18-55 standard lens.

Still a very good camera for most uses. Touch/Swivel screen is very neat and the whole thing is very well made. There is an error that comes up on many of them, when the flash won't flip out - Err 05, I think. Apart from that very, very reliable - and with an adapter can also use Canon FD lenses, if you are prepared to forego all the electronics.

I started out with a Canon EOS 650 film camera with 3 lenses back in 1987 and in 2014 finally decided to buy a slightly used EOS 650D and of course still able to use my EF lenses all these years later. Both great cameras. Chose this over the 60D and 70D because reviews said the video was more capable. I probably wont ever need another camera between this and my phone.

Sorry not seen that error, hope you get it sorted soon.

Sorry for the dumb question, but I pulled my T4i out to take some skyline pictures and put on a 75 inch monitor/TV for our company during presentations. The pictures come out very nice for an 11 year old camera. BUT, when putting the pictures up on the big TV, there are black bars on the sides. I can change the aspect ratio to 16X9 on the T4i, but they are still there. You can see the difference between ratios, but the bars never go away. Is there a setting on the camera that would allow the pictures to fill the screen completely? As a comparison, my iPhone 13 Pro Max when set to 16X9 photo will indeed fill up the entire TV screen. But the pics don't look as good, especially when shooting from far away. Maybe it's just later cameras that will do this. I've been out of the photo game for a long time ha! Thanks for any info. Great video and keep up the good work!
