I've never shot a T5i so I honestly can't compare. I had a Rebel for about 10 years and loved it, but the 70d is just awesome.

Hi the reason why I got this camera is not for pictures but instead for videos, because from my research and reviews it's one of the affordable camera in the market when it comes to filming, cheap but won't sacrifice the quality of videos you will produced, and it does work best. I have my old 5D for my pictures still works like a pro even for the oldest version . Hope this helps.

Crap, Robin, you party pooper! I just pre-ordered this thing. *sigh* you've dashed my hopes for a little longer. Oh well. Just to whet everyone's appetite, I found a short user review of this camera, with quite a few pics. Personally I think the IQ looks great, and I love the High Dynamic Range option and the Pro Focus Mode. I'm pumped!http://www.myfinepix.co.uk/showcase/review/finepix-hs20exr/hands-on-a-fuji-hs20

I was deciding between these two myself last week. I ended up going with the 780is because of the high def video as well as the inclusion of the viewfinder - which is small, but useful when you're running low on battery and still need to take pics. I just got the camera on Friday and have been taking tons of photos and they are brilliantl! I love it!

Hi Linda,Look at the feature list of both...As a photographer you will be more interested in the stills. Check out the resolution and fps. I think the t4i has the same sensor so probably not "loads" in it.. Good luck!alex

It's really a matter of personal preference and what you plan to do with it. Both are great cameras and I'm sure you will be happy with either. After doing an exhaustive amount of research I selected the T5i because I plan on shooting stills and videos. The Canon out performs Nikon slightly in the video category, while Nikon has a slight advantage in low light shooting stills. If you do decide to go with the T5i I strongly recommend that you seek out "camerarec toby" on you tube. He has fantastic tips and training videos on the T5i that are free and yet invaluable. That being said I firmly believe that either camera will amaze you with their features and abilities.

The T3 Canon is a great value. It would be a good camera for anyone including professionals. I use it for landscape photography with great results.

Almost nothing. Put it this way: if you found them for sale at the same price then might as well get the T5i. The T5i MSRP is slightly lower than what the *original* MSRP for a similar kit was for the T4i, but we all know that you don't pay MSRP. Even here on Amazon a nice package in my cart shows the T4i to be nearly $200 cheaper than the T5i. That's because of the Canon discount that ends (this time) March 30th (it has been extended several time since November 2011). Essentially, they are clearing out the T4i and the Canon lineup will continue to have T3i and T5i, but no more T4i. Here's the opening paragraph from CNET's review, which highlights the only actual differences between the two models: "No, your eyes aren't deceiving you: the only significant difference between the now-discontinued Canon EOS Rebel T4i and its replacement, the T5i, is the price and the kit lens options. There are some small enhancements, including a new finish; 360-degree rotation mode dial plus the addition of scene mode; a return of digital zoom during movie recording (which had disappeared in the T4i "upgrade" from the T3i); and real-time preview of creative filters in Live View. But ultimately, it's the same camera." -CNET

Spend the extra bucks on the t5i. There is a major picture quality and video quality from the t3i and the t5i. And the lcd display is delightful

Yes! I do a blog on fb about the little island I live on and people have noticed a difference in my pictures. I took a pic of a dragonfly up in a tree with the sony and you can count the hairs in its back. Great camera! Well worth the money.

I would recommend a sony camera. Have had four of them and they are great. I take more than 10,000 photos a year and am sorry I bought a canon. Thought quality would be universal in all cameras. I was wrong.

The T4i is worth it. The new processor, plus the touch screen and video recording time of up to 29:59 minutes are amazing. My advice is if you can afford it, make sure to buy it with the 18-135mm STM lens instead of the 18-55mm non STM. Matched with that lens this camera can effectively compete with some of the more expensive ones. I would get this instead of the T3i

I am just graduating to DSLR photgraphy and just ordered my camera - I went through extensive research and boiled down to Canon Xs and Nikon D3000, finally decided to go with Canon. Nikon's guide mode is really good but I feel Canon is a superior machine.

Well I do have this camera. And unlike the other review, one week after I got it, I had a wedding to go to in Florida. My pictures came out pretty darn good. In the reception hall, there was a couple of red eye pictures and some were darker than I liked, but overall I was satisfied. Plus, at the time I was still learning to use it. I've owned a Sony, Kodak, and now a Canon camera and I have to say the Canon is the best thus far. Indoor pictures are always tricky because of the lighting. I don't know how soon your wedding is, but my suggestion is to buy the camera, take a couple of pictures indoors with it see how they come out, and decide whether or not if you want to keep it. You can always return it if you don't like it.

Canon T3 is an AMAZING CAMERA, I would recommend everyone to buying it, ive had nikon before and im not as satisfied with it like i am with canon...

My T5 works wonderfully for action shots. I use an 18-250 lens which lets me get the shots even if they are further away. The focus is very fast and all I have to do is make sure I have the subject in the viewfinder. I have become fairly good at panning (following the subject as it moves) and have been happy with the results. I use a 32GB SD card with a fast transfer rate (90mbs/sec). I have been experimenting with the video mode and while the video is excellent I'm not much of a cameraman with it...yet! Have fun and enjoy, the T5 is the absolute best camera for the money.

I pre-ordered. I agree with PencilInWin - the early bug rate in newly released Canon cameras has been very high. The 1DM3 had the focus issues, my 5DM2 had the notorious "error 20" issues necessitating 3 (yes, that's three) trips to the Canon repair facility for shutter assembly replacements. However, I got an early 1DsM3 and I am thrilled with it. I am going to sell my 5dM2 and switch the workflow I used to do with it to the 1DM4. Hope Canon got this one right from the get-go.

Sounds good! I'm buying my first digital camera for my daughter and her family. I've locked in on the t1i and 15-85. I really like my 24-105 lens and think that the 15-85 should be a great match for the camera.
