Being a fan of all of the flagship cameras makes it painful for me to say that this is an unexciting offering from Canon's lower end consumer camera into the DSLR game. With Nikon and Sony releasing much more advanced consumer offerings, I often wonder what Canon is going to do to get out of this...

The EOS 100D would seem to confirm that, if somebody really wants what's loosely called a ‘serious camera', the D-SLR is still the first cab off the rank. And, consequently, it also confirms that the only really good viewfinder is an optical one. Hmm.

If you don't mind the really small form-factor, then the EOS 100D is the perfect little camera for you. With an accurate focusing system and good sharp image quality, there is nothing wrong with the camera at all.

Most of the time, when people think of a Digital Single-Lens Reflex (DSLR) camera, they immediately think of a fairly large and bulky device. However, during our time when reviewing the relatively diminutive Canon EOS 100D, many were actually quite surprised when we told them it was actually a...

Superb portability; Very easy to handle; Responsive touch screen; Good image quality

Small battery; Harder to handle with larger lenses; Price

The EOS Rebel SL1 is an ultra-small SLR system; in fact it is smaller than many bridge cameras and even lighter than many other digital cameras. Nevertheless it's a real SLR system with Canon's APS-C-sized image sensor, which is a little smaller than other APS-C-sized sensors made by Nikon, Sony and...

There is nothing bad about this little camera. I look at video as a joke feature (no DSLR does it well), and everything else works great. I own and use my 5D Mark III every day, and depend on the 5D Mk III's C1, C2 and C3 memory modes to let me reset my camera instantly for my preferred settings for...

Canon's high-performing EOS Rebel SL1 is the tiniest digital SLR you can put your hands on, but it may be too small for some hands.

It's not easy to compare the EOS Rebel SL1 to other cameras. While the Lumix GH3 is ever so slightly larger, most ILCs-especially those that seek to mimic the rangefinder style-are actually smaller. Furthermore, their native lenses are often also smaller.

The Canon SL1 is a hit. I had a blast using this camera – it was the most fun I have had with a DSLR since the 5D Mark II came out nearly 5 years ago. Spec-wise, there's nothing that special about the camera; however, when you put Canon's little 40mm pancake lens on the SL1, it becomes an absolute...

Regular readers will know that I love smallest-in-class gadgets, with the exception, perhaps, of TVs and phones, where excessive smallness is both pointless and unhelpful. But with cameras especially, I can't see what's not to love about small and light – so long as the model is serious and not just...
