EOS 4000D

A reasonable priced, good quality dslr camera, with built in WiFi.

Great product

Super introduction to DSLR photography. A huge choice of lens and adapters. Takes fantastic shots.

It’s good - takes sharp photos with the right lens - fairly user friendly. There is no Bluetooth and the only way to transfer photos is a very sketchy and unreliable WiFi function. The lens that comes with it is fine - you’ll need a better one to take decent quality pictures The instructions that come with it are dreadful, but the ones on the website are good I need something with more punch and Bluetooth so will return it for an R50 - if you want a good quality camera for family snaps then this is great value. If you want something more then it probably isn’t.

This is a nice little camera for someone starting out with Digital like me. It is not over complicated but has enough functions to improve your photography. Would also recommend the Camerawize.photography Manual by Jeremy Bayston as it gives an indepth overview of the camera and all its functions

Really good camera for the price and for beginners really good performance

Let me preface this by saying that I am NOT a professional photographer and my knowledge of cameras is limited, however I am keen on learning more about photography and enjoy taking photos of good quality. This camera is a great buy for a novice like myself- it’s easy to function, has various settings that I have managed to get the hang of quickly and it’s not too large of a camera to be taking to various places with me either. The view finder is able to be toggled between the actual lens and the screen which you’ll find comes in handy when needing to view things through different perspectives. I like that the set comes with a choice of lenses, a camera strap and a basic instruction manual. In fact the only issue I had with this (and it’s probably only me!) but I couldn’t figure out easily how to attach the camera strap without looking online for an answer as it’s a feature that isn’t explained in the manual. You’ll also need to purchase a memory card separately (which I think is standard for most if not all cameras) and I’d recommend paying more for a larger memory as you’ll fill up fast once you start clicking away.

This is a stunning camera. But you do have to download the full manual from Canon. This is possibly the best manual ever supplied and it's free! When I opened the box I got a bit of a shock. The instruction booklet is tiny and hopelessly inadequate. I thought I'd made a big mistake buying it. It didn't tell me anything I needed to know. But once I got the online manual which you can download to your computer and read at your heart's content, I was amazed. This is a step by step set of instructions for people that know nothing at all about cameras - and for those who are advanced photographers as well. The camera can be as simple or as complicated as you want it to be. Just turn the knob to its first setting and it will do all the work for you. All you have to do is press the button to take the picture. But if you want complications [which you need never use!] they're all there as well for the advanced photographer [and the manual explains everything in great detail such that even an old fogey like me could understand. But as I say, all you have to do is choose the first setting and the camera autofocuses and does the shutter speed and everything for you. As I say I'm an older guy and I remember the old film cameras, and the big thing was to have a zoom lens from 28 to 80, and the lens supplied with this camera is the equivalent to that lens [18 to 55], So, you have great flexibility from portraits to landscapes and everything in between. This is a stunning camera, but you will have to download that amazing manual, or like me, you might think you made a mistake buying it. You didn't!
