650D - late adopter is loving it
2

I very recently got a 650D/T4i to replace the XSi I sold last year. This morning I tried shooting a flower with a bit of breeze blowing, using the 18-55mm IS STM, and found...

- Manual mode with Auto ISO, allowing me to set the shutter speed and f/stop with the camera choosing ISO, works great!

- Flippy screen kept me from having to lie on the ground.

- Touch-screen focus point in live view is really useful (focused on the lower-left flower center).

- Live view AF is plenty fast for this type of work, and AF with half-press shutter button is way better than AF with a separate button.

All in all, a very superior experience than it would have been with the XSi.
