I was in Target the other day and picked up a Canon T5i and I was immediately surprised at how light and cheap feeling it was compared to the first of the series, the T1i. I know the Rebels are entry level, but must they be made so unappealing? Do you have any thoughts about the current state of DSLRs and what the future may be for them?
Heavy doesn't necessarily mean better. Remember the old days when people wanted a heavy car that would "hold the road"? Some composites are tougher and more durable than metal. Many people here have complained that their cameras are too heavy and are looking for a lighter model. As I always say, I read lots of reviews and comparisons before buying anything.
