Excellent size and performance for the price

I used to have a Canon 60D and a SL1 as backup. As I have back issues I couldn't carry the 60D on long trips, so I took the SL1. However, I did fell the leap between the two of them, causing me to begin the search for a new one that could fit in the gap. I've had the T6i for a few weeks now and I think I really made a great choice. Don't get me wrong, the 60D for me still is a better camera for professional heavy duty work, but the T6i is fabulous for long trips and pleasure photography. If you can only have one, the T6i won't dissapoint you either. Compared to the SL1 I'll have to say it is indeed a bit bigger but that's actually a good thing, because the grip is far better on the T6i and all the additional features are a big plus. Some of the most noticeable features are the Wifi capability, the autofocus points, the ISO dedicated button and the quality of the images and video. Sure it is all plastic and won't take a good drop as a magnesium body would or withstand the rain, but for the price tag I think it is understandable. I have been using it on a bunch of different scenarios, such as outdoors, indoor portrait, studio, social events and it has not let me down yet. If you are a beginner you will find it very easy to use and understand, and if you are pro you will find it really useful as a second body or as non work travel or pleasure option just as I did.Read full review
