- General
- Brand: Canon
- Model Number: 0591C003
- Product Name: EOS Rebel T6i DSLR Camera with EF-S 18-55mm IS STM Lens
- Color: Black
- Product Set: w/ 18-55mm Lens
- Camera Model Family: Canon Rebel T6i
- Digital Camera Type: DSLR Camera with Lens
- Imaging
- Image Sensor Type: CMOS (CCD and CMOS are the two main technologies used in image sensors. CCD, the older of the two types, turns analog light signals into digital pixels. This conversion happens without distortion, resulting in high-quality images. Newer CMOS sensors use transistors at each pixel to move electrical charges. CMOS sensors are typically less expensive, but also require more light to create distortion-free images.)
- Image Resolution (Display): 6000 x 4000 (Refers to the number of pixels, both horizontally and vertically, used to either capture an image or display it. The higher the resolution the finer the image details.)
- Zoom Capability: true (This function allows for magnification of the subject.)
- Image File Format(s): JPEG, RAW (Standardized software format(s) of storing digital images. The type of format chosen for capturing and compressing the image can determine quality, level of detail, and storage space required.)
- Focus
- Autofocus: true (Allows the camera to automatically focus through the lens, rather than by adjusting the lens manually.)
- Exposure Control
- Shutter Speeds: 1/4000 - 30 sec. (The length of time the shutter remains open when the shutter release is activated, expressed in fractions of seconds. The longer the shutter is open, the more light that is able to be captured by the camera sensor.)
- Minimum Aperture: 4 (The smallest opening of a lens, typically expressed in f-numbers. The larger the number, the smaller the aperture and the less light that can enter the lens. A smaller aperture creates a larger depth of field, which keeps both foreground and background in focus.)
- Maximum Aperture: 5.6 (The limit to how wide a lens can be open, typically expressed in f-numbers. The smaller the number, the larger the aperture and the more light that can enter the lens. A larger aperture creates a shallower depth of field, helpful for keeping subjects in focus and blurring background details.)
- Minimum ISO: 100 (ISO is the measurement of a camera image sensor's light sensitivity. When there is plenty of light, using the lowest ISO setting available will typically result in a higher quality image.)
- Maximum ISO: 12800 (ISO is the measurement of a camera image sensor's light sensitivity. In low-light environments, using a higher ISO setting helps to capture a sharp, bright image.)
- Maximum Expandable ISO: 25600 (ISO is the measurement of a camera image sensor's light sensitivity. Expandable ISO settings use software to simulate brighter images than the device's native ISO range is capable of capturing.)
- Brightness Control: true (Allows the camera to adjust the brightness of a captured image for optimal exposure.)
- Burst Mode: true (Also referred to as continuous shooting. This feature captures multiple shots in rapid succession.)
- Self Timer: true
- Self-Timer Delay: 10 seconds
- Shooting Modes: Kids, food, candlelight, night portrait, handheld night scene, HDR backlight control (Exposure modes employed by the photographer to control the optimal aperture, shutter speed, ISO, and other settings for capturing specific subjects/scenes. Examples include Aperture-Priority, Macro, and Manual modes.)
- Panorama Mode: false
- White Balance Modes: Auto, Preset (Daylight; Shade; Cloudy, Twilight, Sunset; Tungsten light; White Fluorescent Light; Flash), Custom (Approx. 2,000° - 10,000°K), White Balance Correction, and White Balance Bracketing (Settings that calibrates how the color white is rendered in an image/video, reducing the appearance of unnatural contrasts caused by various light sources.)
- Effective Pixels: 24.2 megapixels (The actual number of pixels which make up the viewable image.)
- Lens
- Lens Mount Compatibility: Canon EF, Canon EF-S
- Lens Type: Standard Zoom
- Minimum Focal Length: 18 millimeters (The minimum distance between the lens and the image sensor that allows the subject to be in focus. The shorter the focal length, the greater the area of scene captured.)
- Maximum Focal Length: 55 millimeters (The maximum distance between the lens and the image sensor that allows the subject to be in focus. The greater the focal length, the smaller the area of scene captured.)
- Lens Series: Canon EF-S (The product group that the lens belongs to, based on similar shared features.)
- Lens Model Number: EF-S 18-55mm f/4-5.6 IS STM
- Flash
- Integrated Flash: false
- Display
- Display Type: LCD
- Screen Size: 3 inches (Size of the screen, measured diagonally from corner to corner.)
- Viewfinder Type: Optical (A viewfinder is the part of a camera (or attachment) that allows you to see and focus a scene in frame. Optical viewfinders let you view the scene directly through the lens. Electronic viewfinders display the image on a screen in its approximate final form.)
- Viewfinder Magnification: 0.82 times (The measurement of the apparent size of the image in the viewfinder compared to how it would be seen with the naked eye.)
- Touch Screen: true (Touch-screen devices make navigating more intuitive. Using a touch-screen display, you can do things such as tap to select, hold and drag to move items, swipe to scroll, and pinch to zoom.)

Q: What is the difference between the t6i & the t6s?
A: The T6i is actually the simplified product of the T6s, the functions that the T6s has but the T6i does not have include: Top info LCD Quick control dial on rear Electronic level Eye sensor for use with optical viewfinder Servo AF in live view The T6i is $100 cheaper than the T6s in listing price
Q: Do lenses for a T2i work on a T6i
A: Yes. That is one of the best things Canon has done. I still use my lenses from the 80's when it was still film. :)
Q: WiFi compatibility with iPhone and iPad
A: Yes if used with the Canon Connect app. Available free in the app store.
A: This is a complex question. It will be the same for lacrosse (LAX) as football, soccer, baseball (outdoors), LIGHTING IS PRIMARY FACTOR FOR INDOOR SPORTS : hockey, basketball (inside), volleyball, swimming, etc. Even in full, bright daylight, you will see PRO Photographers using HUGE, expensive, long-lenses. Perhaps comparison to a telescope may be helpful. Astronomers have always built the LARGEST-DIAMETER lenses that they could design, or afford to build. That is to get the most "LIGHT GATHERING POWER" possible, to capture photos. Remember that "tele-photo" lenses get their name from being, literally, telescopes adapted to serve as camera lenses. (1) FORGET ABOUT so-called "optical zoom" numbers on small cameras. That is only enlarging the image on the cam's LCD viewfinder. OPTICAL ZOOM is the actual long / short of the lens, to make a wider (short), or "closer" (long) FOCAL LENGTH of that LENS. (2) The longest lens (tele-photo) will "bring the subject closer" (appear larger) BUT... like a telescope, that changes the "F- ratio". YOU WILL NEED TO DO SOME BOOK-LEARNIN' ON YOUR OWN, as well as get advice from others. (3) "Big Glass" lenses ARE EXPENSIVE. There is no dodging the issue. (4) To succeed with an inexpensive, "kit" lens ; either zoom or fixed - focal length [F.L.] You will have to have LUCK : full Sunlight, USE A LENS-SHADE, and a STEADY HAND (much like marksmanship - DON"T "SNAP-OFF" the shot, gently "click"). Staying with lacrosse (LAX), if possible, get permission to formally represent the school, or organization, offer to "share" (c) with yearbook, or offer images (paid) to local press ("PRESS" pass, if possible). THEN, YOU MAY BE ALLOWED, with assistant, and brightly colored "caution" vest, TO USE A 10-12 ft. STEPLADDER, AND MOVE IT AS YOU SEE FIT. Do this on the OPPOSITE side of the field from the teams & officals - be as un-obtrusive, and SAFETY - CONSCIOUS as possible. (4) Summary - Read-up on "shooting sports" action. Get the most light possible on the subject. Get the largest - DIAMETER lens that you can affford ("light - gathering power"). Decide if you should shoot from the field ( ground or laddder) or, the higher-viewpoint of the stands (even the PRESS BOX, or "PHOTO PRESS", ON ROOF OF THE PRESS-BOX. Have a hard-copy "portfolio", of sports-action, so you can negotiate with school, PRESS, or Stadium officals, so you can "free-roam" for the best POV. How do you get to Carnegie Hall ?? ... "Practice, Man... practice". STUDY ABOUT TELEPHOTO LENSES. BUY THE BIGGEST & BEST THAT YOU CAN AFFORD. Good Luck... LAX is a truly great sport. - Mark T, Michigan, USA ; 23 MAY 16 -
A: I started out in high school photography in 2008, and had a 13.3 megapixel rebel xsi which I still have as a backup camera to this day. I now own a t6i (24.4 megapixels), They are long lasting cameras, I had a situation where my less than 3 month old t6i was thrown across a room (literally) and it sustained internal damage, however it was less than $150 to get the whole thing repaired and calibrated (turnaround was less than 10 days). So they are long lasting cameras, and if you do break it, its not an arm and a leg to get fixed. If your confident and have the patience to learn how to use this camera properly and compose your shots, this will be a good investment for you. Its a little more advanced than the T5 or Xsi, but if you can learn the functions, you will be producing much higher quality shots than you would going with an entry level nikon or lower-series Canon.
Q: Will the Wi-Fi allow me to send photos to my Windows 10 desktop computer?
A: Yes it will and works well easy to set up an excellent feature for a camera at this price point. No more having to pop out the SD card. The real benefit is being able to immediately send your pictures to your smart phone and post to social media.
A: The lens itself may be a little short at 55mm for tight shots, but you can always do a little post editing to bring it in. Be sure to use the sports setting to stop the action
A: The flash on this camera is awesome. I used it in the dark at Disneyland and got great shots of my family and the scenery. It does do a lot of preflashing sencing the environment which can be very annoying. But it is very powerful and produces great results. Great video in the dark too!
