Canon EOS Rebel T5i DSLR Camera (Body Only)

The Canon EOS Rebel T5i (also known as the EOS 700D internationally) delivers 18 megapixels of professional-grade image quality in a compact, feature-rich DSLR body, introduced in 2013 as a modest update to the T4i within Canon’s consumer Rebel lineup.

At the core of the T5i is an 18MP APS-C Hybrid CMOS sensor (22.3 x 14.9mm) paired with Canon’s DIGIC 5 image processor, running approximately six times faster than the DIGIC 4 used in earlier Rebel models, with an ISO range of 100-12800, expandable to 25600 (H). The Hybrid CMOS AF system incorporates phase-detection pixels directly on the sensor, enabling fast, accurate autofocus for both photos and movies during Live View shooting. For viewfinder shooting, the camera uses a 9-point, all cross-type autofocus system, with sensitivity down to -0.5 EV, and a 63-zone iFCL (intelligent Focus, Color, Luminance) metering sensor supports evaluative, partial, spot, and center-weighted average patterns.

Continuous shooting reaches up to 5.0fps, and the shutter offers speeds from 30 seconds to 1/4000 second plus bulb mode, with flash sync at 1/200 second. A built-in pop-up flash offers a guide number of approximately 13m (ISO 100). Video capability includes Full HD 1080p recording with Movie Servo continuous autofocus (Program AE or manual exposure), saved as H.264-encoded MOV files with unlimited clip length (limited only by card capacity, broken into roughly 22-minute segments at 4GB increments). A built-in stereo microphone and a 3.5mm external microphone jack, along with automatic or manual audio gain control and an attenuator function, round out the camera’s video-audio capabilities.

Handling centers on a 3.0-inch, fully articulating Clear View II TFT touchscreen LCD (1,040,000 dots), along with an optical pentamirror viewfinder offering approximately 95% frame coverage. The camera includes Scene Intelligent Auto, Creative Auto, Portrait, Landscape, Close-up, Sports, and Special Scene modes (Night Portrait, Handheld Night Scene, HDR Backlight Control), along with full Program, Shutter-Priority, Aperture-Priority, and Manual exposure modes.

Build quality uses a stainless steel and polycarbonate resin (with glass fiber) body, measuring approximately 133.1 x 99.8 x 78.8mm and weighing approximately 580g (20.5 oz.), powered by Canon’s LP-E8 battery. The camera stores images on SD/SDHC/SDXC cards (UHS-I compatible), connects via USB 2.0 Hi-Speed and mini-HDMI, and notably lacks built-in Wi-Fi, GPS, or Bluetooth. The T5i uses Canon’s EF/EF-S lens mount, giving it access to Canon’s full range of EF and EF-S lenses.
