        Canon t5i is one of the nice cameras. I have changed almost 14 cameras and I am a camera freak. I would recommend this camera. I bought it for 33% discount in AMAZON_LINK as a bundle and happy that I got this for a much cheaper price!
        It has the Flip-out screen which helps Great for movies and it has a has a 12800 ISO which is nice and cool!!

        I have one.

        Excellent entry level DSLR camera.

        Pick the 18-135mm lens with it.

        I looked at one today and it did have an external mic jack, is it not a stereo mic input?

        the back is 7D, and according to canon t5i has a 12800 ISO not 6400

        The middle picture (of the back) seems to be that of the EOS 100D (SL1). Please look at the review of the EOS 100D.... the middle picture has a flip-out screen. So I guess they accidentally switched the pictures.

        they put in the 24p filming but they take out the external mic jack? and the lcd on the pictures doesn't look like a flip-out screen, how come?

        Advantages of the Canon 650D
        Has an external mic jack Yes vs No Record high quality audio with an external microphone


        Better maximum light sensitivity 12,800 ISO vs 6,400 ISO The 650D's maximum light sensitivity is 1 f-stop better



        Advantages of the Canon 700D
        Longer battery life 550 shots vs 440 shots Around 30% more shots per battery charge

        The flip out screen is there, and it's multitouch (pinch to zoom) capable... it's just that it's MOSLTY the same as the T4i, except for a few details (the mode dial changed, and a few other things).

        The rear veiw of the camera looks wrong, notice the placement of the selector wheel.
