A short time getting acquainted with the T5 is all that's need to discover that sometimes bigger is better.
Review Verdict: A quick browse on the Internet shows a wide variety of prices for this model so it's worth digging around for the best price. It's not going to take the finest quality pictures, but for that you need to be looking at a much larger, more expensive camera.

Comments:
A quality 2.5" LCD helps you work though we would have liked to have seen a proper viewfinder as this is something the Canon offers at just a $5 price premium. Still, the camera is easy-to-use and you can also print to a compatible printer via PictBridge
