Canon EOS 600D, Canon's top amateur SLR
The 1600D replaces the 550D as Canon's top amateur/beginners SLR. On the surface, it's not much different to the 550D, offering the same sensor size and resolution, but adding a Feature Guide for novices and an articulating display. It's a step-down from the EOS 60D and EOS 7D, which have sturdier metal construction and faster continuous shooting.
