The Guide mode (best place to start if you are a newbie) allows you to move step by step into competence with ease. It works through the fundamentals of photography. This, in addition to the decent battery life means that the Canon EOS Rebel SL3 is a great choice for any buyer looking to get started in the DSLR world.

Features

Specifications
The Canon EOS Rebel SL3 has a 24MP APS-C sensor with Dual Pixel on-sensor Autofocus. Obviously, there are much higher megapixel cameras available on the market but the Canon EOS Rebel SL3 sensor is decent and gives good clarity of images. The APS-C sensor is the best Canon sensor and is used all the way up their products line, right through to the EOS 80D.
The processor is the DIGIC 8 and has a burst rate of 5 frames per second. As far as video goes, it has 4K capability, giving very good video images.
The viewfinder on the Canon EOS Rebel SL3 is, unfortunately, only 95% accurate, leaving you guessing near the edges of what you will capture. Practice and guesswork do make it easier for you to work with this over time, but it feels like a let-down when it can’t be that difficult to up this accuracy rate to 100%.
Focusing
The autofocus on the Canon EOS Rebel SL3 leaves something to be desired. It has a 9-point autofocus, which hasn’t changed much over the years as far as Canons are concerned. The LCD screen is pretty responsive in terms of focus and allows you to touch on the screen where you want to focus. So, there are 143 live view focus points in total, which gives you a fast and accurate focus. With the addition of face and eye detection, the LCD screen is probably the place you want to focus your Canon EOS Rebel SL3.
