I bought this camera in mid november 2016. And after a good use of three months I can say its the best value for money in my opinion.It gives you decent amount of picture quality thanks to its 18 mp cmos sensor.AF is very decent for the price range.If your a beginner you’ll have no issue with the sutter speed thogh its just 3 fps.The camera interface really easy to understand and because of light weight the camera is very easy to handle.In terms of battery life a heavy day will last you a day or a day and a half.The includeed 18-55mm EF-S IS II lens is decent in built quality its rouged cause I dropped it few times but its still as new if you ignore some minor scratches.It gives you decent background blur but if you want really got I highly recommend you the dual lens kit which also includes a 55-250mm EF-S IS II lens its give awsome lens blur.I hope you found this review helpful thank you.
