Questions & Answers

Shopper : Can I use all my canon lenses that I use on the 5D Mark lll on the 5i as well?PAUL O : Yes
Shopper : Will my canon lenses work on 5i ?GREG S : It depends on what lenses you have. The T5i has an EF lens mount, so Canon EF (EF-S) lenses should work. The non Canon lenses I have are specifically designed for Canon EOS Rebel cameras.OTILIA C : The body works great for most types of shooting (studio, indoor, outdoor), but it crispness goes down in low light photography. It is also not wise to try and shoot action sports unless you have much light to work with. The crispness or sharpness also is low when using kit lenses, I would recommend using any supersonic lens to maximize sharpness throughout images. If you can afford to buy into the high-level lenses the quality is absolutely amazing.ALEX M : As long as they are EF mount or EF-S, both will work.PEGGY A. R : My Canon EF & EFS lenses work well with the T5i.BRETT B : Canon EF-S-- Yes Canon EF, or FD- No, not without an adapter.BRIAN J : YesJOHN W : Yes, I use Canon EF lenses with my Ti5, they work great together
Ruth M : my canon xti is malfunctioning. I have had it for almost ten years. time to upgrade. can I get a trade in allowance for my old camera?ALEX M : Go to this page: <a href="http://www.adorama.com/pages/usedQuote" target="_blank">http://www.adorama.com/pages/usedQuote</a> this is where you can sell your old gear to Adorama. They probably won't give you much since it is malfunctioning, but it's worth a shot. I don't believe you can trade in your camera, per se, but they can give you store credit which you can use to get a new one.

My thoughts on the camera in general.

I love my T5i & the lens. I just need/want to get out and use it more to learn how to take advantage of all it's features. I already had a T3 and enjoy it but having the T5i it has become my backup/second camera and the T5i is my primary. Great camera & lens and at an amazing price!!!

Canon T5i

I have always loved Canon cameras for their quality and the lenses. I used Canon Ti series in film school and bought the T5i to use professionally. I own 2 of them.

Great Starter Kit

Economically priced and not too complicated for a new photographer to get to really know the camera.

My Favorite Rebel

There's something about the T5i that makes photography fun. 18mp sensor, 9 cross-type focus points, 5 fps, and an AF that's as good as any I've used. The extra lens reach I get with the T5i over my 6D makes it perfect for photographing Florida Keys wildlife.

Professional in Training

If you are starting out to be a professional or learn about photography the "Rebel" is the perfect camera to start out with. Then years later, upgrade to the "Mark" series. I'm not going to lecture you of why. It's just like the same reasons you don't marry the first person you like or kiss.

Great camera to learn on

I teach photography at the high school level and this camera has been great for my students. It is so flexible that the beginners can start on day one and be able to get some nice shots, but it also allows those that have more experience to shoot amazing pictures in manual mode and come up with some very creative and more complex images.

Great experience

I had a t3i before this but wanted that silent focus on the fly by touchscreen for video and this camera does that really well.The stm kit lens are so quiet .18-55 is lens was a great range to start with. I am told that they use magnets instead of gears but what ever it is ... Its Quiet. I do mostly wildlife but I have been learning about the wireless flash features it can be lots of fun and also very usefull in getting some shots where just 1 flash will not do.(dont flash the animals) The onboard mic works good when you are indoors and can bounce the sound around , The mic jack can come in handy with an external mic outside where dealing with wind and stuff.

What is the microphone jack size for this?

My friend and I use this camera for making youtube videos and the sound quality isn't the best so we would like to buy a microphone for it. However, the jack size isn't the standard 3.5 mm. Any help would be great!

Great camera!

This camera is just what I needed as a beginner photographer. It is easy to use, lightweight, and has amazing auto focus. After a long day it begins to say busy a lot, which is why I rated it at four stars. For its price, it is a great beginners camera, and maybe some pro.

A Great Source of Frustration

I have had many problems with this product. I will write an extensive review when I am certain the poor photographs I produce with this camera are a result of the camera and or myself. In the mean time, I would recommend moving up a grade rather than buying this camera. I think having the GPS is worth having and this model does not have it.

Good Camera

I bought this camera about one year ago. Great for making vlogs, taking video and photos of family, and making short films. Helped me on some projects as well. Some things that where an issue is the audio on the camera, it is kind off bad. I also had some lagging on the touchscreen. However, I do believe on a slim margin that some phones are still better than this camera. I think it is still a waste of money, and a waste of time to research this camera.

Great camera and great accessories. Love the adorama bag. But camera is a little difficult to figure out how to use. But maybe I'm an idiot. Also can't tell if the rode mic is working it didn't come with instructions.

Fantastic all around camera

I bought my T5i about a month ago and so far I have been nothing but satisfied, I have had no problems with this camera at all. At first I was thinking about getting a second battery just for backup but the one included in the kit lasts quite a long time. I can take the camera out for a whole day of shooting and still have over half battery life still. The flip-out screen has come in handy on multiple occasions for low or high angle shots, and the fact that it is touch screen is even more of a bonus. The only downside I have noticed about this camera is the slow auto focus, when capturing photos the auto focus may take longer than it would take to just manually focus it on your own.

Cannon is my camera of choice!

By Kim

I have had my camera for 2 years now and love it! It's easy to use. My grandson who is 6 can even take great pics with this camera.

Totally in love with T5i & 18-135 STM

By Shaun I.

The 18-135 STM and the T5i make a very compelling combo. The results I'm getting are exactly what I've always hoped for in an SLR. The focusing is fast and deadly accurate. The images are sharp and vibrant. Colors are simply amazing. The image stabilization really works and does make a huge difference is difficult conditions. Add to all this, the amazing touch screen, fast and accurate live view, and great video capabilities. How can you go wrong with this combo?
