Too soon to tell. Not seen any (rumoured) specs yet...filmrebel said:Hey everyone. How do you think the Canon T4i will compare to the 60D? Just curious![]()
it will probably be, but you'll never know...sama said:I think it's just an update to 600D. 60D is the next level up.

Think there is any chance any of the rebel line will have built in wireless flash control? One of the main reasons now I'm wanting to get a 60D or 7D is for the flash control.
Doubt that so very much...

"The EOS 7D and 60D were the first Canon SLRs to support wireless flash control using the built-in flash, and the Canon T3i follows suit. That is, the T3i's built-in flash can act as a controller or commander to one or more remote wireless flashes. You can have the built-in flash contribute to the exposure, or just command the remote flashes. Like that of the 60D, the Canon T3i's wireless flash capability supports four channels and defines two groups (the 7D defines three groups). Exposure compensation and flash ratio of 1:8 to 8:1 can be set on a per-group bases, allowing a lot of control over how multiples flashes contribute to the final exposure. Additionally, there's an Easy Wireless Flash mode, which simply fixes the flash strobes to all operate as one group with a 1:1 flash ratio."
Is that not enough for you?

I didn't realize the T3i was capable of that. Can the T2i do the same? I have a T2i and a 50D, but for the price of an ST-E2 I can sell and upgrade to a newer body. Looks like I should try to find a deal on a T3i if that is the case.
Sorry if I've derailed this thread too much.
Do you think the T4i will have the same wireless controls if Canon is switching to radio? It seems like it would either have the new version, or nothing, probably nothing. :'(
The build won't match the 60D but c'mon, models that get updated every year start to catch and even surpass their higher end models in some areas.Mt Spokane Photography said:Canon sells three tiers of DSLR's

Upgrades are better compared with models in the same category, since the differences tend to be in build quality, AF, and added features. Features trickle down to lower models, but the build does not. AF seems to trickle down slowly, if at all.
