Canon EOS 1200D Review
Canon EOS 1200D sensor review: Rebel with a cause?
Introduction While Canon has regularly updated the upper entry-level EOS XXXD (Rebel TXi) model, the maker has only periodically upgraded its entry-level model. As a result the 18-Mpix EOS 1200D (Rebel T5) is an upgrade of the 12-Mpix EOS 1100D (Rebel T3) introduced back in 2011.As well as adopting the higher-resolution sensor found in the maker’s past and present EOS XXXD (Rebel TXi) models, the EOS 1200D (Rebel T5) also features the older-generation Digic 4 level image processor rather than the latest more capable Digic 5. Still, this means the camera adds the ‘cinematic’ 24fps frame
