The Canon EOS 700D, known as the Kiss X7i in Japan or as the Rebel T5i in the Americas, is an 18.0 megapixel digital single-lens reflex camera made by Canon. It was announced on March 21, 2013 with a suggested retail price of US$849. As a part of the Canon EOS three-digit/Rebel digital line, it is the successor to the EOS 650D/Kiss X6i/Rebel T4i and is the predecessor of both the EOS 750D/Kiss X8i/Rebel T6i and EOS 760D/EOS 8000D/Rebel T6s.
Features
The 700D has a feature set almost identical to that of the older 650D. According to photographer and technology writer Gordon Laing,
It's fair to say that not a great deal has changed between the T5i / 700D and its predecessor. Indeed they're identical other than three changes: a new mode dial which can rotate through 360 degrees and keep turning, previews of Creative Filters in Live View, and a new external coating inherited from mid-range models like the 60D to provide a more durable finish.[1]
The 700D, however, was introduced with a new kit lens — a new version of the existing EF-S 18–55mm that employs Canon's STM (stepping motor) technology. It also (for the first time in a Canon 18–55mm lens) has a front section that does not rotate.[1]
Features include:
- 18.0 effective megapixel APS-C CMOS sensor (Hybrid CMOS sensor)[2]
- 9 AF points, all cross-type at f/5.6. Center point is high precision, double cross-type at f/2.8 or faster[2]
- DIGIC 5 image processor with 14-bit processing[2]
- ISO 100 – 12800 sensitivity, extends to ISO 25600[2]
- 95% viewfinder frame coverage with 0.85x magnification
- 1080p full HD video recording at 30fps, 25p (25 Hz) and 30p (29.97 Hz) with drop frame timing[2]
- 720p HD video recording at 60p (59.94 Hz) and 50p (50 Hz)[2]
- 480p ED video recording at 30p and 25p[2]
- 5.0 frames per second continuous shooting[2]
- 3.0-inch Vari-angle Clear View LCD II Touch screen with 1.04-megapixel resolution[2]
