You have the SL1? Can I ask a few questions, that one is a good price..(the T4i s spendy!!!)

*Does it have HDR?

*Does it have highlight priority like my older 450D?

*How's the auto focus on moving objects, I like to shoot birds, in flight when I can.

*A review said the battery life was poor, is that true?

Thanks for all your help!

  1. Yes HDR in JPG
  2. Yes HTP is common
  3. Autofocus is similar to XSI with one center cross point, but does have Hybrid CMOS AF II(better than both T5i/T4i), for live view focusing (touch screen).
  4. Battery life is avg, you can say poor if you shoot a lot, this camera will need extra battery pack.
  5. Main difference is T4i/T5i comes with flip screen with touch funcion. SL1 is fixed and touch screen(can focus in live view which is kind of like smart phone).

It is an upgrade either way, but it's smaller, it is available at a lot of retail stores, you can take a look and order online
