Canon’s EOS 100D has created a lot of interest since it was announced on 21 March. We published a detailed ‘First Look’ at the key features of the EOS 100D on the day of the announcement but were unable to conduct any performance tests.

Announced in mid-March, the EOS 700D replaces the EOS 650D and is positioned at the top of Canon’s entry-level DSLR line-up, beside its lightweight sibling, the EOS 100D, which shares the same image sensor and processor.
