Canon T6i/750D Review at Game Jabi Lake Abuja




Like the EOS Rebel T-something-i models before it, the Canon EOS Rebel T6i / 750D delivers professional grade image quality in a compact, lightweight, feature-filled, easy-to-use body that carries a very affordable price tag. These are the qualities that have anchored the flagship Canon Rebel model in the top-selling DSLRs category for years and this design approach has been continued with the Rebel T6i. Though the T6i is the upgrade to the prior flagship Rebel model, the T5i, a new flaship Rebel model that slots above the T6i has been simultaneously introduced. Nearly identical to the T6i is the Canon EOS Rebel T6s / 760D. While the T6s has a higher price tag, it has a superset of the features found on the T6i. I'll share my preferences along with the model differences in the Rebel T6s Review.
Note that, with these two cameras being nearly identical, I chose to complete this review using the Rebel T6s model. Essentially, in areas where the two cameras differ in their handling/layout, the T6i is nearly identical to the T5i/T4i design that I am very familar with. The two cameras are similar enough to not warrant complete separate reviews and I felt that it was more important to learn the updated T6s design.
At review time, the Canon EOS Rebel line (***D and ****D) is the most popular DSLR camera line on the market and, at T6i announcement time, 3 Rebel models were included in the top 4 overall bestselling DSLR cameras list. [per Canon USA] As usual with a new Rebel model introduction, the former Rebel models remain in the EOS lineup with the T5i becoming the mid-level model and the best-selling T5 remains the entry level option.
While the new-at-the-time EF-S 18-55mm STM Kit Lens was arguably the biggest upgrade that came with the T5i, the T6i's upgrade package is far more significant.

    The War between Iconic Emeka Ike and Segun Arinze

    The war between iconic actors Segun Arinze and Emeka Ike seems to have no end in sight. In a recent interview, Arinze had said Ike should stop embarrassing the Actors Guild of Nigeria by parading himself as its president. According to Segun: ‘Emeka should grow up. As far as I am concerned, Ibinabo Fiberesima is the bonafide president. Even in the recent judgement that came out recently telling us to return to the status quo, what does it mean? We were told to go back to the way we were. There was no time Emeka Ike was pronounced the president of AGN. Let him bring out the copy of the judgement and show us if he is man enough. He should wake up and stop embarrassing the guild.” Well, these words did not go down well with Ike who believes Segun Arinze “is an illiterate who should have been in jail.” He told Saturday Beats: “I heard Segun Arinze was interviewed and he said so many things about me and nobody asked me for my own side. I don’t think it was a balanced report. Se...

    Senate withholds NIS recruitment tragedy report

    Nine months after the Senate Committee on Interior submitted its report on the investigation of the March 15, 2014 tragedy that attended the recruitment by the Nigeria Immigration Service, the upper legislative chamber has refused to release the findings of the panel. No fewer than 21 people reportedly died during the stampede that occurred at the NIS recruitment centres across the country. The Minister of Interior, Mr. Abba Moro, who hails from the same local government area with the Senate President, David Mark, was widely accused of being responsible for the poor conduct of the nationwide aptitude test for the Nigerian job seekers. The Senate on March 18, following persistent public outcry, directed its Committee on Interior to conduct a public hearing to unravel the remote and immediate causes of the stampede at the NIS recruitment centres. The committee was to report back to the chamber within two weeks to enable it to take appropriate action that would discourage such ...
