About this deal

The battery and memory card compartment are located on the bottom of the device, with the HDMI and mini-USB ports hidden behind a rubber flap on the right edge. For the price, the Canon EOS 3000D’s design and build quality is pretty decent, and although it might not be the best budget DSLR build quality wise, it surely offers the best value for money. The main body comes with standard EF S18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS II kit lens. The lens comes with built-in image stabilization. This might sound like a very basic lens, but for beginners, it can actually work really well if used the right way. It offers 3x zoom and the zoom and aperture rings are smooth and responsive. Performance Please refer to the Instruction manual supplied with your camera for more information about the Auto power off settings.

The AF is accurate with all the lenses we used the EOS 3000D with, at least during the daytime. Towards the evening, however, the kit lens starts to hunt and by the time we’re in low light situations, the kit lens basically starts losing AF capabilities. When using a Sigma 30 or 50mm prime lens, the AF does improve, which is aided by a larger aperture letting in more light. Additionally, if you were to use a Canon lens which comes with an Ultra Sonic Motor (USM), AF will become faster for sure. While the lens might be very basic, it’s perfect for beginners and can result in stunning images if used well. The lens offers 3x optical zoom, which can come in handy if you’re trying to get closer to the subject without losing any quality. The zoom and aperture rings on the lens are quite smooth and responsive, making it fairly easy to get used to.

What’s In the Box

I do want to mention that all images were shot in RAW, where the images come out completely flat. There’s very little colour or contrast, just like the case should be when it comes to RAW files. Editing them in Adobe Lightroom really brings out the detail and depth captured by the 3000D’s sensor. The strongest point of the 3000D’s sensor is the way it renders pleasing skin-tones, especially considering the darker skin-tones we see in India. Another thing the EOS 3000D does well is the way it handles the colour green. Dimensions and weight listed above are based on CIPA Guidelines (except weight for camera body only). Press the

Single image, jump by 10 or 100 images, by shooting date, by folder, by movies, by stills, by ratingHowever, the camera might not be the right choice for you if you’re looking for something that’s durable and built to last, if you’ll primarily depend on the LCD display to capture images and video, and if you’re someone who wears spectacles. Overall, the Canon EOS 3000D is a great DSLR for beginners and something I would recommend at its price point. As I mentioned earlier, the camera was fairly easy to use and the accompanied manual is definitely worth a read if it is your first experience with a DSLR. I, being a beginner myself, went through it to get up to speed with all of the camera’s features. After that, it was just a matter of practice, and within a couple of hours I was able to capture some fairly decent shots in good lighting conditions.

The camera offers video recording at 1080p on 30fps, but then that again is not ground-breaking. It’s suitable for some clips of your vacation or for basic YouTube videos. Figures are based on Canon's testing standards (ISO 100 and Standard Picture Style) using an 8GB card. The EOS 3000D sports nine phase detect AF points, in which one is a cross-type sensor for more accurate focusing. The autofocus performed well in our lab tests in bright light and even in challenging subjects. The Auto Lighting Optimizer comes with four different setting Off, Low, Standard, and Strong. It enhances the processing to even out the contrast and correct brightness. Only, it struggles in lowlight conditions, where we noticed noise in the shots. On the upside, the lightweight body makes the EOS 3000D the ideal choice for casual photo walks and in my use, I didn’t feel any fatigue while using the camera. Another major design change that Canon has had to make with the EOS 3000D concerns the buttons and the dials on the camera. If you're thinking about starting off with photography, the Canon EOS 3000D might be a decent option if you're on a very tight budget, but it does have its flaws like a very slow burst rate and poor high ISO performance.
