Canon's conservative Rebel
Canon's updates for the T4i mostly bring the top-end dSLR of the Rebel line into parity with its non-dSLR competition.
The ; delivers extremely good photo and video quality plus improved performance in Live View shooting over the T3i -- as long as you buy the more expensive 18-135mm STM kit. Plus, the camera has a more streamlined shooting design than its predecessor.
The feature set remains rather blah, and its photos aren't as good as the T3i's at high ISO sensitivities.
A fine camera, the Canon EOS Rebel T4i's more expensive 18-135mm STM kit (or body with another STM lens) is the only version that merits an unqualified recommendation. You can probably find better alternatives if you just want a sub-$1,000 dSLR for...

Canon EOS Rebel T4i review
People who use Live View with autofocus for stills or video are the biggest winners with this generation of the top model in Canon's EOS Rebel series. The big updates to the T4i (aka the EOS 650D overseas) over its predecessor are the addition of a...

Canon EOS Rebel T4i
The Canon EOS Rebel T4i delivers top speed along with excellent image quality, and supports smooth video autofocus when paired with the right lens. It's a laudable performer, but doesn't quite edge out the Nikon D5100 as our top pick for under-$1,000...
Fast to start and shoot. Sharp, articulated touch-screen LCD. Compact. Nearly silent video autofocus when used with STM lenses. 5fps shooting. Good image detail at high ISOs. Fast autofocus.
Tiny viewfinder. Very limited burst shooting in Raw mode. Video autofocus is choppy with non-STM lenses.
There's also a Q button, which allows you to adjust many of the same settings, along with the Metering mode, from the rear LCD. You can use the physical controls to navigate, or touch the screen to change settings. The display itself is extremely sharp...

Canon EOS 650D (EOS Rebel T4i / EOS Kiss X6i)
The Canon EOD 650D / Rebel T4i is the company's latest addition to its novice-oriented 'Rebel' series. With more than two decades of continuous success in its film and digital incarnations, these little SLRs have been improved and refined to the point...
Comprehensive touchscreen interface that is intuitive and efficient ; High image quality with good balance between detail and noise reduction in JPEG output ; Good subject tracking AF in viewfinder shooting mode (compared to mirrorless competition) ; 5...
Slow 'hybrid AF' performance in live view and video modes (compared to mirrorless competition) ; Slightly higher noise levels than its peers ; Default dynamic range lags a bit behind its peers ; Using flash with Auto ISO enabled results in ISO 400 even...
The Canon EOS 650D combines very good image quality with easy access to shooting parameters and extensive manual control. Its touchscreen interface brings a new level of operational efficiency to the DSLR market. Added to this is a fast 5fps shooting...

Canon EOS Rebel T4i review: testing the world's first touchscreen DSLR
The best camera is the one you have with you." You've probably heard the quote: it's often used these days to explain why smartphones are threatening to push traditional point-and-shoot cameras into early retirement. Pocketcams...
Great images and video from any angle ; Genuinely useful touchscreen control ; Better at picking settings for you ; Vastly improved frame rate (and shutter sound!)
Image quality on par with cheaper predecessors ; Continuous autofocus not (yet) worth the investment ; Difficult to grip
As always, rebellion comes at a cost

Canon EOS Rebel T4i Review
Canon's newest entry-level dSLR camera, the Rebel T4i has been given a few major upgrades, including continuous autofocus during video recording, a touch screen LCD, and the new DIGIC 5 image processor. These have greatly improved the camera's...
SR Auto shooting mode is accurate and easy in all situations ; Image capture during video recording can be very convenient ; Outstanding image quality for an entry-level dSLR ; Captures beautiful Full HD video ; Excellent performance with the new DIGIC...
Higher ISO levels, 3200 and up, are too noisy for quality images ; There is a pause if you capture an image during video recording ; Burst shooting was just under the 5fps that Canon claims is possible ; Slightly Higher Price than other entry-level models

Canon EOS Rebel T4i / 650D
The Canon EOS Rebel T4i / 650D delivers 18 megapixels of professional grade image quality in a compact, lightweight,feature-filled, easy-to-use body that carries a very affordable price tag.That is the same opening line I used for the Canon EOS Rebel...
price tag.These are the qualities have anchored the flagship Canon Rebel model in the top-selling DSLRs category for years - and I fully expect the T4i to sustain the Rebel's popularity.

Review: User-friendly Canon T4i boosts performance for both still images and video
The first DSLR to offer a touchscreen LCD, the Canon T4i is brimming with photographic innovation.
Above-average image quality ; Good performance ; Articulating touchscreen ; Enhanced video features
Tends to blow out highlights ; Flash must be raised for AF illuminator to function ; Live View AF is a little sluggish ; Best video operation requires more-expensive STM lens
The Canon Rebel T4i is a user-friendly yet relatively advanced DSLR, with helpful tips for beginners and plenty of controls and features for more experienced photographers. Above-average image quality, good performance, improved autofocus, and enhanced...

Canon EOS 650D Review
The Canon EOS 650D (called the Digital Rebel T4i in North America) is a new DSLR camera that sits above last year's 600D / T3i at the top of Canon's entry-level EOS line-up. The 18 megapixel 650D / T4i offers a dual AF system which ensures sharp stills...
The Canon EOS 650D / Rebel T4i is the best mid-range Canon DSLR yet, offering a lot of new features that aren't apparent at first glance. In particular we appreciated the new touch-screen interface, faster burst mode, expanded ISO range and the ability...

Canon EOS Rebel T4i (EOS 650D)
Canon's T4i raises the bar in terms of important enthusiast features, including a faster frame rate, new multi-shot modes, and Full HD stereo movies, but its new phase-detect autofocus falls short for movies.
Excellent image quality; 9 cross-type AF points; Stereo microphones; Built-in touchscreen; Multi-shot modes
Slow Live View and video autofocus; High ISO performance is unimproved; Below-average battery life; No dedicated AF illuminator
When a company touts a new feature that turns out to be, well, not so hot, it casts a pall over the entire product, sometimes unnecessarily. This is one of those cases. Most people still don't think of SLRs primarily as video cameras, so that the...
