Canon 7D vs 650D/T4i: What to buy?

How do a semi professional body like the Canon 7D compare vs the mid level model like the Canon 650D/T4i? Look here for the answer.

Here is what makes the Canon 7D better than the Canon 650D/T4i:

• The size of the sensor and performance of the image sensor is about the same according to the Dxomark. Both are 18 megapixel sensors, but the sensor of the Canon 7D is a little bit better in every category, but the difference isn't that big, so you wouldn't see a major difference in the images that comes out of the two cameras
• The autofocus system of the Canon 7D is a great deal better that the one that the autofocus system in the Canon 650D/T4i. The Canon 7D has 19 crosstype autofocus points where the Canon 650D/T4i only has 9 of the same type, so the Canon 7D has more autofocus points to acquire focus and get a sharper image
• In the Canon 7D it is possible to make small adjustments to how the lenses autofocus with the camera, so it works perfectly with the camera
• The Canon 7D can shoot at 1/8000, but only very few ever users this speed of their camera
• The Canon 7D has a complete viewfinder, so you get a complete view of the picture you take, where a bit of the border isn't visible in the Canon 650D/T4i
• The Canon 7D can shoot at 8 frames per second which is almost twice as fast as the Canon 650D/t4i with 5 frames per second. This is important if you shoot action or wildlife.
• The Canon 7D has more custom functions so there it is possible to better fit the camera to your shooting style
• The body is a professional build that can resist water and dust on some levels
• The battery can last longer before it has to be recharged, where it is possible to take double as many pictures before needing a recharge.

Here is what makes the Canon 650D/T4i better than the Canon 7D:

• The ISO can be pushed to ISO 25600 which is one step higher than the Canon 7D, but the performance at high ISO is still better in the Canon 7D. It gives the users of Canon 650D/T4i the possibility to take pictures in dark situations without a flash
• The body is smaller and lighter which can be important for some photographers 

The price difference at the moment (February 2013) is about $260, which isn't that much when you see that it is the top APC camera vs one of the entry models. This only confirms the difference shown above. Yes you get a lot of extra nice features with the Canon 7D and if you have photography as a hobby then it would be wise to go for the more expensive 7D, but for a lot of people the Canon 650D/T4i should be enough of a camera. We can only hope to see a new top model from Canon soon with a higher degree of extra features compared to the Canon 650D/T4i. It is rumoured that we will see it this year.

Canon 650D/T4i vs Canon 60D: What to buy?

These two models are close to each other, so you might wonder which camera body you should choose. Should it be the cheaper Canon 650D or should it be the Canon 60D with more features?

Here is why you might want to buy the Canon 60D:

• Both have a 18 mega pixel sensor, but the sensor in the Canon 60D has according to Dxomark a better performance with better performance at high ISO as one of the main differences
• The Canon 60D can shoot at 1/8000 sec where the Canon 650D only can shoot at 1/4000. For almost every one this doesn't make a difference
• The Canon 60D has a lot more custom functions and settings, so the camera will easier to fit to your style of shooting than the Canon 650D
• The build of the Canon 60D makes it weather resistance 
• The battery life is longer with the Canon 60D, so you can take more pictures without a recharge of the battery

Here is why you might want to buy the Canon 650D:

• It has a newer image processor than the Canon 60D
• The ISO can be pushed to ISO 25600 in the Canon 650D, which is one step higher than the Canon 60D
• The Canon 650D is a less heavy and smaller camera body than the Canon 60D

The price at the moment (February 2013 at Amazon) is just about the same for the two cameras and as you can see from above the difference isn't that big. It is the small differences that decides if you want to go for one model over the other. There is no clear best camera among these two models.

Canon 650D/T4i vs Canon 600D/T3i: What to buy?

What makes these two models difference? They are in the same product line, with the Canon 650D being a follow up to the Canon 600D.

Canon 600D

Here is what is new and better in the Canon 650D:

• The sensor size is about the same. They scores also about the same level at Dxomarks with the older 600D a little bit higher, but expect them to have the same level of output.
• The image processor is a newer model, which means it should process the pictures better and faster
• The autofocus points are of crosstype in all 9 points vs just one in the Canon 600D. This means that it will be better at getting a sharp image.
• The ISO can be pushed one step higher to ISO 25600 in the Canon 650D, so you will be able to take pictures in more dark situations without flash
• The Canon 650D can shoot at 5 frames per second vs 3.7 frames per second in the Canon 600D. This is important if you shoot a lot of action or wildlife

The current price difference is $150 (January 2013). Does the above quality for spending and extra $150 dollars? Well for some having better autofocus, go higher in ISO and shoot more frames per second will be important, but for most people I would recommend going for the cheaper Canon 600D and use the saved money on some better lens, which is the second part of the equation of making good pictures.
