Re: This is the Canon EOS Rebel SL2/200D/X8

Now leak us the AF specifications, I'm hoping for some f8 cross types in double digit quantities (hoping not expecting). That would allow for use with an EF L 100-400mm ii and a 1.4 extender, and thus qualify the camera as a nice back up or good primary for hiking. An effectice 900mm focal length in your pocket is sure to be a hit. Hey the 50-250 stm is a great back pack filler, lighter than a water bottle.

Was that expected? Presume that means DPAF is onboard as well.

Is there expected to be DPAF?

Yes, it will almost certainly be on all new Canon DSLR's.

Re: This is the Canon EOS Rebel SL2/200D/X8

Looks yummy!

I see they've changed the position of the shutter release button slightly.
This was something I liked very much with the 100D/SL1.
For my hands it had a better position than any other xxxD/Rebel although the camera was much smaller.

Need to have some hands on to check how this feels now.

Now let's hope for a fair pricing. I feat it'll be too expensive at the start for my rationalism.


Edit:
Looking at the grip it looks bigger and the groove deeper.
Would like to have a bottom view to see if they've changed the orientation of the battery.
Also nice they've changed the type of battery. So almost 20 % more energy.

Someone made noise about it earlier this week - I was surprised, because the first certification I saw here made no mention of it, while the 6D2's did. Yeah, it's a huge boost.

No word on AF though?

That is a surprise. Vari-angle touch screen, smaller, lighter, and probably cheaper than the T7i. This may be interesting so long as IQ and video is similar to T7i (probably the same sensor)

Re: This is the Canon EOS Rebel SL2/200D/X8

As a happy SL1 owner, I'm almost entirely pleased with the specs and layout. Bumping up from 4 fps to 5 fps is nice, as is adding 1080p with 60 fps and a flip swivel screen. I see most of the extra width (122.4 mm vs. 117 on the SL1) is in the hand grip, which is now open all the way up the grip area. I also like the separation of the OFF-ON-Video switch from the mode dial. My only slight grumble is they will now use the LP-E 17 battery, instead of the LP-E 12 that the SL1 and M series uses. But considering that bumps the power rating from 875 mAh to 1040 mAh, that's a good thing, especially for current Rebel owners already using the LP-E 17. It looks like a nice upgrade for SL1 owners! :)

it won't be cheaper. the SL1 was originally a pretty pricy camera at 799 body + 18-55

actually the M3 through M5 use the LP-E17

Re: This is the Canon EOS Rebel SL2/200D/X8

Yes I'll be in for one of these, having sold my M3 after my flirtation with the futuristic mirrorless systems have left me feeling somewhat cheated.

So the rumours of it being smaller than the 100D were wrong, it is in fact a smidgen larger and heavier. Looking at the pictures I find the top command dial interesting, it looks better stuff than the horrible rough plastic wheels on the other Rebels. I hope this, along with the weight, may be signs that the tangeable quality of the body is improved.
