My trusty Canon 650D has been my go-to camera for over a decade now, and it still delivers

summarizeEditor's Summary

I've had the Canon 650D for over a decade now, and it's still my go-to camera for capturing life's precious moments. It's been on countless vacations, family gatherings, and even just around the block to catch some city scenery. The camera's a bit heavy, but it's comfortable to hold, and that rotating LCD screen makes framing shots a breeze. I love taking it on trips outside the city to capture the beauty of nature.

Hello everyone.
I'm not a photographer by any stretch, but this camera has been my loyal companion on countless vacations and family gatherings. I love taking it on trips outside the city to capture the beauty of nature.
The camera's a bit heavy, but it's comfortable to hold, and it doesn't slip out of my hands.

The touchscreen is super handy, and the battery life is still going strong after all these years.

I've stuck with the original lens that came with the camera, and I'm happy with the results. I'm not a photography enthusiast, but I love capturing memories with this camera.
In action. I'll be sharing some of my amateur photos that I've taken with this camera. They're not perfect, but they're a great representation of what this camera can do.

I also have a photo of a chick that got tangled in the grass. I had to rescue it, and it was a great opportunity to take a few shots:xa0

The chick was just shaken up and flew away, but I managed to capture some great shots.

I also have a photo of a squirrel with nuts, which is always a fun shot.
Usually, I'm the one taking the photos, but sometimes other family members use the camera too. That's how I end up in some of the shots:

Nice comparison with smartphone camera. The first photo is from Canon, the second from iPhone 15:

I have to say, I prefer the photos taken with this camera. The subject looks more substantial, and the colors are more realistic.

What I don't like.
1. Video recording. It's one of those situations where the iPhone does a better job.
2. Autofocus mode. I always use manual focus because, let's be honest, the auto-focus can take forever, and the photo still ends up blurry. And the worst part is the loud noises it makes.

Final verdict.
I still love my Canon 650D to this day, and I've never thought about selling it and buying something else. I'm probably going to use it for another 10 years or until it breaks. But, as a hobbyist, not a pro, this camera suits my needs perfectly. Whether it's taking photos of flowers, landscapes, or animals, or capturing a family dinner with good quality, it does the job.
