Still Good as a Used in 2023 – I wanted a small crop sensor for some travel. I got it from Ted's Cameras whom I have always done things very fairly in my experience. A reputable high street source like this was simply preferred by me. IMO, away from some very professionally identified need, sensors have not moved in a night and day way for most things for most of us in some… Read more

time. The still image output is still very valid. The Jpegs, IMO, are more than fine for screen viewing/most standard printing needs (say 8x10"). The RAW file option is good enough for light changes for a more polished result that most, using this, probably won't ever need or notice.

Video it's a well done 1080p. Frankly, I could export it in 4K and I wonder how many would notice? I accept professionals will have needs beyond this.

It's nice that memory cards for this can be bought incredibly cheaply if you need one. FWIW, I had a 120MBs class U1 SDHC just lying around. It's only just enough IF continuous burst shooting max Jpeg AND simultaneous RAW is near your ball park. 4 clacks from the shutter and it's a few seconds wait doing that with that card. Mind, probably pick that card up for $10 so............My Jpeg usage case from this camera it's actually loads of card. By the way, the clack is real and in silent mode, it's still a good audible clack.........

Sub $500 delivered to the door, checked thoroughly, and properly warranted/backed by a 14-day swap for any reason I think it's a super option. Good rock solid camera that does enough of the sports/wildlife thing that phones simply can't touch, and as good as anything for my nonpro use that way. It can cope with other genres too, but that's the bit I most wanted it for.

Paired with something like a 55-200mm APS-C lens it's also a small and light travel combo - I already have the lenses. It's minus the bells and shiny real latest mod cons but it gets my straightforward needs done fine, even in manual mode. If it somehow does not make it back from camping, inclusive of on a free loan, it's been as much as I need. If I get bored with it, then 1/3rd (hopefully) outlay back is more palatable than 1/3rd new as well.

Great Camera for Professionals and Amateurs – I have had the EOS200D for 12 months now and it has served me really well, allowing me to take some amazing photos around this country. From Brumbies in the snow, lights of Vivid on Sydney Harbour, waves crashing over the NSW south Coast and cars racing over Mount Panorama at Bathurst. I purchased the camera with the 18-55mm and 55-250mm lenses… Read more

which have given me flexibility across many different circumstances and environments. The 200D is really easy to use and Camera Assist will help you develop your photography skills.

The specifications of this camera are up there with the more expensive cameras and the capability of this camera for under $1k will amaze.

Battery life is above average with a fully charged battery producing 650 photos. I bought a second battery because thats just me. Images are crisp and clear at 24.2 megapixels.

The camera also allows for different scene and creative styles. In summary. You wont be disappointed if you own this camera. It will do everything you ask from a DSLR camera. Its small and more compact than larger cameras. Easy to manipulate and have never found the size to be an issue.

A great beginners level DSLR camera – I bought it couple of weeks ago from jbhifi. It is a light weight 24MP camera and can record 4K videos. It comes with the EF-S 18-55mm f/4-5.6 IS STM lens. Picture quality is really good.

Very good results and value for money – Canon EOS200D digital camera, Canon 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 lens and Canon 10-18mm f/4.5-5.6 lens for a great price at the time at eGlobal online. I see the price of the 10-18mm lens creeping up on websites all the time so I probably only paid 60% of where things are now. I had hoped to move away from dslrs but there was a lot of hype about this… Read more

camera when it was introduced, so I was tempted to buy it and try it out. The Canon EOS200D is promoted as a beginner’s camera and it has a guided mode, which easily and quickly advances your knowledge so you can move beyond full auto mode. The menu system and touch screen is easy to use and the camera just works when you take a little time to get to know it. It is light weight as are the lenses which I find to be a real plus. I need the 10-18mm lens for professional interior photography. The photos aren’t up to the standard I need straight out of camera but editing them to look the part is a cinch, so it doesn’t matter to me. The Canon dual pixel autofocus for photos and videos is amazing and worth the price of admission alone. These STM lenses have brilliantly silent autofocus mechanisms and are a bargain. It offers HD video and it is nice looking output that simply works. To get the photos looking the way I want them to look, took more work than previous Nikon and Panasonic dslrs that I have owned. For a while I was scratching my head trying to figure it out but once I tested many variations and settings, particularly in P mode, it all came together. Flash photography, even with an external flash is tricky but I pull it together most of the time. It is not a professional output type of camera but putting in some effort with it produces results that I am starting to appreciate as time goes on. Dslr cameras are something I want to leave behind as mobile phone and bridge cameras have improved out of this world in the last two years. But for what I need from a camera at times, at the price point this system is offered, made a pretty compelling case. I can produce professional output for the web with this camera using the elements of light and composition in the work that I do. In conjunction with other clever cameras that I own, I am more satisfied with photography and video work than at any other time in the past 30 years that I have been. Cameras are becoming so good nowadays.
