Description — Canon EOS Rebel T6i
The Canon EOS Rebel T6i centers on a 24.2MP APS-C sensor paired with a DIGIC 6 image processor, producing images at a maximum resolution of 6000 x 4000 pixels. The native ISO range runs from 100 to 12800, giving shooters meaningful flexibility across different lighting situations. Viewfinder shooting is supported by a 19-point all-cross-type phase detection autofocus system — a meaningful spec that means every AF point can detect contrast in both horizontal and vertical directions.
The optical pentamirror viewfinder delivers 95% frame coverage at a 60Hz refresh rate. For live view and video, contrast detection autofocus is also available. The 3.0-inch Vari-Angle Touchscreen LCD at 1.04M dots allows touch-to-focus and intuitive menu navigation.
Continuous shooting reaches 5 frames per second, and video records at up to 1920 x 1080 Full HD at 30fps in 8-bit. A 3.5mm microphone jack, Mini HDMI output, Wi-Fi, and USB round out the connectivity options. The body is constructed from polycarbonate, measures 131.9 x 100.7 x 77.8 mm, and weighs 555g, with no weather sealing.
Storage is via SD, SDHC, or SDXC cards, and a built-in flash with Guide Number 12 plus a standard hot shoe are included.
